Bearer of the Helm
The Falling star
Thousands of years ago, long before the rise of modern civilization, the night sky held secrets that humanity could never fully comprehend. Across ancient Britain, a violent fire suddenly tore through the heavens, lighting up the primitive world below like a second sun.
The primitive people looked up in absolute terror as the sky split apart. It wasn't just a meteor or a passing comet. Something ancient, powerful, and completely unknown had just arrived in their world.
The object hurtled toward the ground at an impossible speed, burning through the atmosphere. With a deafening roar that swallowed all silence, it finally made contact.
It struck the Earth with a massive, devastating force that literally shook the entire world. The violent impact carved a colossal, smoking crater deep into the desolate landscape, changing the history of this planet forever.
Deep within the smoking ruins, a mysterious artifact began to pulsate with a strange, electrical power.
That Night in Andys dreams.
A sign
The noisy school cafeteria was completely packed the next day, but Andy couldn't focus on his lunch because his mind was still completely trapped inside that bizarre, cosmic dream.
He tried to shake the feeling, but the memory of that endless starlit void felt entirely too vivid to just be a normal trick of his imagination.
Jamie, who always obsessed over weird urban legends and ancient myths, immediately grinned as if his best friend had just won the ultimate cosmic lottery.
He leaned across the messy lunch table and lowered his voice, frantically trying to piece together the connection to the ancient, glowing helmet from the history books.
Andy stared down at his tray, desperately trying to find a logical explanation like sleep deprivation or just reading way too many historical articles before bed.
Jamie shook his head fiercely, completely refusing to let Andy brush off what clearly felt like a massive turning point in his otherwise completely ordinary life.
A few days later, the school organized a field trip to the local antiquities' museum.
Late that night, long after the museum doors had locked and the halls fell entirely dark, the ancient exhibit sat in total silence.
Suddenly, the cold metal began to stir, pulsing with a faint, otherworldly energy that woke up from its long slumber.
A mysterious presence stepped out of the shadows, and the artifact immediately recognized its chosen master.
The Pull
That night, Andy tries to focus on his studies under the quiet glow of his desk lamp.
A sudden, inescapable thought echoes in his mind—a mysterious pull calling him from the dark.
Closing his eyes for just a moment, Andy is instantly pulled into a swirling cosmic void.
He finds himself standing back in the celestial throne room before the same colossal, star-bound king.
The ancient giant reveals a staggering truth: destiny doesn't choose the strongest, it chooses those who seek answers.
The dream feels less like a fantasy and more like a real memory as blue lightning crackles beneath a rusted fragment on his desk.
Echoing words from the celestial king ring out right before Andy wakes up groggily at 7:00 AM.
At school, Andy's exhaustion is clear, prompting his friend to remark on how awful he looks.
His friend jokingly guesses if he fought a dragon, aliens, or zombies, briefly bringing a sense of normal high school life.
The illusion shattered, an eerie whisper of "Bearer..." echoes through the classroom, snapping Andy out of his thoughts.
Later that day, Andy returns to the quiet of his bedroom, still unsettled by the strange events.
Staring at the glowing metal artifact he never brought home, Andy watches as a legendary power awakens, choosing him as its bearer.
