Auriel was not born named Auriel.
He was not a hero chosen by gods.
He was not a saint chosen by the world.
He was not blessed with perfection
—and yet he is
Humanity isn’t perfect
yet he is
Humanity has flaws
yet he doesn’t
Humanity is weak
He is not
They say he's inhuman
They'll get it right eventually
In a world of gods, monsters, and legends, he is above them all
for he is perfect.
He is Golden
This is a story about a being who rose to perfection. imperfectly
