His Dark Matter

by beyondtworuthis

When Veigar crashes into Bandle City, everyone was instantly terrified of him. He was always an outcast and very few could even say his name out loud. One of the few was the Fae Sorceress, whom many called crazy and insane. She understood Veigar and now it's up to her to settle the peace in Bandle City.

1. His Airship

Unlike the others, I had always found him... Fascinating. I understood how it felt like to be an outcast; I was labelled crazy and insane in Bandle City. Inside, I knew they were wrong but ever since I had come back from the Glade, I had changed. I don't know for the better or worse but my world was a mush of spinning colours. I understood how it felt like to change. I knew how it was like to be tormented and spat on. I understood him.

It was coming towards the end of summer in Bandle City and many yordles were out in the streets. There were many stalls in the streets to accompany the crowds including my very own cupcake stall. Despite my reputation of being 'loopy', business was doing well.

"Can I have one too, mummy?" A hopeful child asked. The mother rolled her eyes and dug into her pouch to draw out two silver coins. The child jumped gleefully and readily gave me the coins. I gave a sweet smile to the child and handed her a cherry cupcake. Another satisfied customer, I thought to myself. The day had been successful for me and the thought of that made me instantly smile.

Around 5pm, the daytime stalls were starting to close up. Tonight was the cannon show, brought by the local hero, Tristana. I didn't have a permit for a night time stall spot so I quickly collapsed my stand a put my remaining cupcakes in a box. I heaved the cargo into a sack, then flung it on to my back. I took off my hat to look at the sky. The late afternoon sky was dreamy. A blue horizon expanded further than I had ever been. Baby pink clouds were spluttered across the sky and the mellowing yellow sun sat by the Bandle Spire (the tallest building in Bandle City). I was starting to drift into a daydream when something grabbed my attention. A small blob had appeared by the Bandle Spire. I stared at it for a while, making sure it wasn't me being crazy. It was definitely getting closer. As it got closer and closer, I could distinguish it as an... airship? Very few airships had ever flown over Bandle City and since I had come back from the Glade, I could only remember one: Veigar's departure of Bandle City.

"No, no, no." I started to mumble. I started to fumble with my hat; I needed to tell someone.
