The Song of the Solus🔊

Long ago, on the giant, orange-sand planet of Argos, there existed a race of intelligent beings known as the Solus. The Solus were capable of taming the harsh environment of their planet using their unique ability to manipulate energy, which also allowed them to communicate telepathically over vast distances. Most intriguing of all their characteristics, though, was their lifelong bond with a sole companion known as their Sobrium.

A Sobrium was a mythical, unearthly creature bonded to a Solus at birth. Considered an extension of a Solus's soul, a Sobrium harmonized with its partnered Solus to project a celestial melody that resonated with the energies of Argos. They named this phenomenon the 'Song of the Solus.'

The story we embark upon is that of a solitary Solus named Arlio and his Sobrium, Sylph. Unlike others of his kind, who exhibited harmonious energies with their Sobrium, Arlio had always been discordant with Sylph. Their song was cacophonic, a fact that distressed Arlio and made him an anomaly amongst his kind.

Arlio, determined to synchronize his song with Sylph's, embarked on a journey across Argos. His adventure led him through golden deserts, under radiant auroras, and beneath incredible, perennial storms. He sought wisdom from the oldest Solus and learned of a prophecy tucked away in ancient lore.

The prophecy spoke of a Solus out of tune with its Sobrium, whose journey to harmony would awaken Argos and reveal its true purpose. Hearing this, Arlio was filled with newfound determination. He and Sylph traversed treacherous terrains, braved raging sandstorms, and faced monstrous creatures in pursuit of harmony.

Just as Arlio's hope began to falter, they found themselves on the precipice of a colossal, radiant canyon, the rumored locale of harmonic convergence. It was here, under the colossal auroras and amidst the echoing canyon walls, that Arlio drummed up his remaining strength and reached out to Sylph, pouring his indomitable will into their chaotic song.

The air around them shimmered, the sand danced, and the auroras seemed to sway to their melody. Slowly, their discordant song began to change. Notes that were once out of place found their purpose, fitting perfectly into this newly evolved song. Where there had been chaos, now there was harmony.

The melody echoed throughout Argos, seeping into every crevice, around each dune, and under the vast, voracious storms. The planet hummed to life, its own energies beginning to spin in sync with the harmonious song. An ethereal glow enrobed Argos, and a collective gasp passed through the Solus. The true purpose of their world was at last revealed.

Their energy manipulation, their telepathy, their bond with the Sobrium, all echoed a universal lore – they were the keepers of Argos, their song an integral part of a cosmic symphony meant to keep the planet's energies balanced. On this monumental day, Arlio and Sylph had finished their journey by lighting the path for the Argos's grand destiny.

From that day onwards, the Song of the Solus resonated not just in the hearts of its singers, but deep within the energetic core of Argos. The tale of Arlio and his Sobrium, their struggle, and the harmony they found echoed throughout the corridors of time, reminding all Solus of their true purpose and the magic of their celestial music.
