Moon spirit

In one of the distant worlds, the Beasts-Spirits rule the forces of nature. These ancient powerful creatures - incarnations of the elements of nature are fierce, like a wildfire, and affectionate, like a summer wind.

One of the most ancient spirits, the Keeper of the Moon, was born immediately after the advent of the world, his task is to protect the beautiful moon. With the arrival of twilight, He rose from the void. He is the Keeper of the Moon and wandered through forests and fields, illuminating the earth, plunged into night darkness.

In the paw, the Guardian squeezed his heart - it beat and shone, like a living corner. In the afternoon, when he was sleeping and was not busy with work, his heart ached and cried. A heart full of longing suffered, because the Beast was in love with the Lady of the starry sky. But the Goddess of the starry sky is beautiful and cold, like a star, and the stars do not know how to love ... they have no hearts. therefore, his Spirit buried in the forest where it lay an inconspicuous stone on a forest substrate ...

Every night, the Keeper saw his beloved - looked into her beautiful green eyes, but there was no heat in those eyes - only arrogance and eternity. In the hope of attracting attention, he gave gifts to his beloved — shiny stones found during his wanderings, night flowers glowing in the dark, and fireflies. The goddess accepted them - she loved everything bright and glowing, although she arrogantly noted that all these gifts in beauty could not be compared even with her dimest star.

Uncounted number of times the moon gave way to the sun in heaven, and the beast could not calm the spiritual torment of unrequited love. The once golden horns faded, and the skin no longer cast silver - the spirit began to wither away, and the light of its moon turned pale. Dark times have come for the World - the nights have become impossibly dark. People with the onset of darkness were afraid to leave their homes, and animals in dark forests hid in the norm. Dangerous, evil creatures woven from the darkness began to come out of the shadows - they were no longer scared away by moonlight. The holy balance of nature was upset.

Realizing the damage that brought the world that gave birth to him and, what is the duty above all, the Moon Guardian asked his old friend, the demon Hanvalla, to take his heart for safekeeping. After all, the heart does not need much space, but is there really a place in the world more reliable than the casket of a powerful demon? The noble Halenwallu did not refuse the request, and for a long time the heart of the Moon Guardian was beating among the trophies in the cage. And again the moon shone in the night sky, and the fear of the approaching night disappeared from the souls inhabiting the World.

But you can’t hide your heart for a long time, it can wither like a flower, and then the master of the heart will die. But with a heart that is torn apart by unrequited love, life is unbearable. Therefore, the Guardian of the Moon decided to present the last - the most expensive gift to his beloved. The moon no longer rose into the night sky, but the light of the stars became so bright and warm that the darkness dispersed at night. After all, even the smallest star sparkles much brighter if she has a heart.
