INTRODUCING HUSH - THE HIDDEN HOPE - WARDEN OF WAVES
✧
Over a century ago, Nemui was once the meek and seemingly powerless youngest member of The Dreamwalker Clan, fittingly named Hush. Considered adept solely in Healing and Purification and significantly lacking in her Dreamwalking abilities, she was cast to the wayside by her clanmates, elder sister and superiors, deemed useless in combat and in Dreamwalking. Her hopes crushed, Hush expected to spend her life as a Healer and watched helplessly as her older sister received countless accolades and recognition for her strength and luminosity. She was often compared to her elder sister Dreamily and berated by her clanmates & trainers for her lack of strength, which slowly withered away her self esteem and any aspirations the Little Bear held for attempting to become stronger.
For decades, the Little Bear struggled to focus on her training and educational pursuits, her mind set on simply living a quiet, harmless existence. However, the voice within her Core remained steadfast and determined to become louder. Eventually, Hush could no longer ignore the screams in her soul to never give up. The ceaseless voice resulted in Hush taking on far too much training - her body was riddled with incurable scarring though she became successfully able to summon her tiny, feathered wings. Eventually - over two years - Hush unlocked the secrets of hydrokinesis, finally beginning to rise within The Dreamwalker Clan, receiving praise for her unique combination of Water and Healing. However, tragically by the time Hush had finally found her footing and become strong enough to stand against minor Nightmares, The Contagion swiftly swept through and annihilated The Dreamwalker Clan along with the majority of her species.
With naught but two members left, Dreamily valiantly sacrificed herself to save Hush, only for Hush to plummet to her apparent demise.
Fractured, dying, cracking and splintering apart into twinkles of white starlight, Hush wept as she closed her eyes and awaited the darkness to claim her to their waves of inky shadows. She knew not where she had landed, nor did she particularly care. Her eyes watched as a starfall blitzed through the sky, the sight beautiful from where she lay, though she knew the truth. The shimmering lights streaking the sky were her brethren, falling to their blazing demise. Tears stung her eyes as she mourned for her Clan. She mourned for her home, her Sovereign and for her dear sister. Awaiting the sweet relief of oblivion, Hush rested her head down onto the rocks of the crater her Fall had formed, only for her Core to bloom with a bright blue light. Her ears perked as she slowly lifted her gaze, ears perking toward a voice softly calling to her from afar...
