Time skipped.
Gently.
Kael Veyris lived in a small place with no name worth remembering.
He woke up early.
Ate simple food.
Walked the same quiet paths every day.
No one recognized him.
That was intentional.He helped when asked.
Fixed a broken fence.
Carried water for an old neighbor.
Listened more than he spoke.
Nothing bent around him.
Nothing needed to.Seasons changed.
Years passed.
Wars ended elsewhere.
Stories rose and fell without him.
Peace held.One evening, Kael sat outside, watching the sky darken.
No pressure.
No destiny.
Just stars doing what they'd always done.
He smiled faintly.
Not because he was powerful.
But because for a while
He was normal.
