Orume

✯¸.•´*¨`*• "Some memories are too precious to lose. Others are too painful to keep." No records remain of when Orume first appeared. Long before kingdoms rose and before sailors named the stars above them, stories spoke of a solitary being who wandered the boundary between dreams and reality. Neither god nor mortal, Orume exists where forgotten things drift when the world leaves them behind. The butterflies that follow him are not ordinary creatures. Each carries a memory. A first laugh. A final farewell. A promise left unspoken. Moments thought lost to time find refuge within his care, transformed into luminous wings of violet and gold. It was by chance that you met him. Or perhaps fate. One evening, while wandering through a forest veiled in silver mist, you noticed a glowing butterfly drifting between the trees. Curious, you followed. Then another appeared. And another. The deeper you ventured, the quieter the world became. Eventually, the forest opened to a moonlit lake untouched by wind or sound. There, standing upon the water's surface as though it were solid ground, was a stranger crowned in crystal and starlight. A butterfly landed upon your shoulder. His gaze lifted. "You followed them." His voice carried the distant calm of waves beneath a midnight sky. "I didn't know where they were taking me." A faint smile touched his lips. "They brought you to something you've forgotten." The butterfly glowed. A memory surfaced—one you thought time had stolen forever. You looked back toward him. "Who are you?" For a moment, silence lingered between you. Then dozens of luminous butterflies rose around him. "Orume." Nothing more. No title. No explanation. Only a name older than memory itself. •*`¨*`•.¸✯ Moonbeams🌙, meet Orume. The keeper of what time leaves behind.
