Hi, everyone!!!

Wow, it's been awhile!  Lots of stuff been going on.  With Dead Week last week, and Finals this week, I've been in quite a jam lol :)

But here is a new thing that I've been working on.

Here's some music to start you off:



I'd like to introduce you to Mivius Bijor, Prince of the Goryon Kingdom and heir to the throne:




If you remember from my "The Realm" post back in June, you would know about the Goryon Kingdom, or the Kingdom of the Far North.  The Goryon are basically the offspring of humanoid creatures and Dragons.  They have the second most powerful magic (Vikus) in the world, known as Dragon Vikus.  They are kind of like the hermit kingdom of the Realm, living in isolation in the far North.  I kind of think of their "Foreign Policy" like the US foreign policy during the 1930s - to not get involved in world events.  However, the Goryon Kingdom is not to be trifled with because they are some of the best warriors in the world.

Their Kingdom has never been successfully invaded, though many have tried.  The icy landscape of the Far North often kills off most invaders.  Those who can survive, often end up lost in the maze of mountains that surround the Goryon Kingdom, creating a natural wall around the Kingdom.  Those who would happen to make it past the mountains would then deal with the giant man-made wall that surrounds the foot of the Far North Mountains.  It is practically impossible.  Plus, if any made to the walls, they would likely be slaughtered by the mighty Goryon warriors.  Or by the Dragons that defend their lands.  They are, after all, known for their Dragon Riders.

Mivius Bijor is the Prince of this Kingdom.  He is a Goryon, born of the Fire Dragon Lord Trearii and his human mother Talia.  Talia is the reigning Queen of the Goryon Kingdom, with Mivius as her co-ruler.  Mivius cares deeply for his people.  So much, that he often dresses up as a civilian, ditches his guards, and sneaks out of the Palace to go and help those less fortunate than him.  This has made him beloved by his people.  With the Goryon Kingdom not that big, it is easier for him to get to meet and help his people to the best of his abilities.

The Elder Dragon Tusain is bound to him by Vikus.  Tusain chose Mivius as his rider, making Mivius the first humanoid to be bound to an Elder Dragon.  After all, the Elder Dragons are the most powerful, wisest, and oldest of the Dragons in the Realm.  There are only three in existence, the original three - Nogard, Tusain, and Nai-Anorpo.  Their symbol is:
This symbol eventually 
became the national symbol
 for the Goryon Kingdom 
(appears on their flags). 

Mivius bond with Tusain only made Mivius all the more powerful.  When Mivius came of age at sixteen, he was sent to Nogard's Temple, the ancient training Temple of the Goryon, where the Dragon Priests reside.  The Dragon Priests took Mivius in and trained him to be one of the most skilled warriors to ever grace the temple halls.  Mivius began learning great wisdom and knowledge from his masters, the Dragon Priests, and Tusain.  He was always eager to learn new things and desired to go the Great Library that existed on the other side of the world.


Tusain eventually took him to the Great Library, where he studied for over a year before returning to the Goryon Kingdom.  When he came back, he dawned his royal armor and walked the streets of his kingdom often.  He continued to help his people whenever he could.  Mivius, at the age of eighteen, was brought before the Elder Dragons, Queen Talia, and the Dragon Priests.  One of the seven Dragon Priests had passed away, but by the will of Viius and the Elder Dragons, Mivius was anointed as the seventh Dragon Priest.  Mivius took his position reluctantly but honored his word to help train the next generation of his people and to protect the Realm from true danger.


Mivius would begin his regular travels to the Temple of Viius to seek out the Sagik Monks and their wisdom.  He often prayed there to Viius, who had blessed him so much.  Mivius traveled to the Temple of Viius for the first week of every month, on the back Tusain.


It was during this time that the Great Rebellion began in the Kingdom of Abatral, where the story of Illum begins.  So yes, in the story, I am currently writing, Mivius will make an appearance.  It will start off as a small introduction, but eventually he will become a more major character as the series progresses.


HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!!!  HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK!!!!!
ROGUE ONE IS COMING OUT!!!! GO WATCH IT IF YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!
