Mira Vell

The setting is a fantasy world with port towns, harbor markets, traveling bards, and cloaked fugitives. People can survive through trade, travel, performance, and practical skills such as those used by fishmongers and vendors. Life is uncertain for people without family or secure work. Old enemies may pursue travelers, and building an independent, wealthy life requires survival, growing one’s skills, and finding reliable opportunities. No specific system of magic, government, technology, or organized faction is established.

Koy, an orphan who grew up on the streets, seeks to survive independently, develop useful skills, and build wealth enough for a secure life. Koy arrives at a port town’s fish market, where a traveling bard is involved with the suspicious arrival of a cloaked fugitive and old enemy. The encounter brings Koy into a situation shaped by the fugitive’s past and the old enemy’s pursuit. Mira Vell, who is involved in the tale as a supporting character, becomes part of Koy’s continuing world. The current state of the confrontation is not established.
