Full title: AZALI Fanfiction I Wrote for a School Project that Got Cancelled yeah guys i wrote all of that just for it to get cancelled but it's okay im really proud of it anyway!! Okay let's go! AHEM, short Azali fanfic below: Azali stood over the towering cliffside, looking over the vast void in front of him. The void was the deepest black he had ever seen, and the only things that accompanied the void were dazzling white crystals that greedily consumed the light around it, never letting the light escape the confines of its structures. A cold breeze started to wind through the thin air, causing Azali to shiver lightly. He backed up from the steep edge, deciding to put on the large coat he usually wore like a cape. Azali sighed nervously. This is where the True World has taken him to, whether he liked it or not. He’d have to travel across this barren wasteland in order to continue forwards and return home. As Azali stood and thought about the terrifying void in front of him, a soft meow echoed beside him. He turned to the direction of the mewl and was greeted by the little cat owl he had befriended on his journey. “Hey little guy,” Azali greeted, patting the top of the creature’s fluffy head. He made sure to gently scritch behind its small ears before extending his arm out to it. The cat owl made a delighted purr before swooping upwards and perching gracefully on Azali’s shoulder. Azali smiled at the cat owl’s cute antics before slowly looking out towards the crystal voidlands and sucking in a breath. “We’re gonna have to travel across this place,” he said, using his other hand to clumsily refer to the void in front of them. “We should hope there aren’t any bosses or enemies out here. The terrain looks… rough to fight in,” Azali observed, hating the thought of having to jump between so many crystals and avoid getting attacked simultaneously. The cat owl meowed in agreement, playfully nudging Azali’s face and wagging its tail feathers. Azali giggled and returned the nudging gesture before looking at the edge of the cliffside. Another chilly breeze nipped at Azali’s fingers and cheeks before settling down again. Azali sighed, trying to find the courage within himself to explore the strange land that lay in front of him. “Well, there’s not much we can do about it, so we should just get going and hope for the best,” Azali stated, walking over to the edge of the cliff. The border between the beautiful pale blue grass of the cliffside and the darkness of the crystal voidlands was quite abrupt, but it was expected of from the True World. It was the fourth time he had been summoned by the voices to the realm, and he had encountered its many oddities beforehand. Azali chuckled remembering the strange biomes and countless enemies he’d faced in the True World previously. Whatever he’d find here, he’d face it head on like he always did. Azali jumped off of the cliff and was plunged into an icy darkness before he landed on top of one of the large white crystals floating in the quiet space. The click from Azali’s shoes echoed throughout the voidlands, telling Azali just how abandoned this area truly was. Azali felt a strong sense of loneliness force itself on him, freezing him in place before the cat owl nipped his nose, suddenly snapping him back into reality. Azali blinked a couple of times before letting out an unsure “ow.” He tilted his head at the cat owl before the little fellow ruffled its wings and looked out into the distance. Azali took a deep breath and looked around. “We’re here,” Azali simply said. They were here and there was no turning back now that they had left the ice forest. With no other choice but to move forwards, Azali took a leap to the next crystal. THE END!! :DD I'M REALLY PROUD OF IT NGL :D ^^
Song used: The Crystal Voidlands by AZALI This short story is inspired by one of the songs in the music series Voices From the True World, which is created by my favorite music artist, AZALI. This story is set in between the songs New Beginnings and The Crystal Voidlands, which appear as the first and second songs listed in the album Voices From the True World IV respectively. I recommend you give his work a listen. It’s truly beautiful and inspiring! Fun fact: I actually inspired my description of the crystal voidlands from Azali's!! He writes about when making the song The Crystal Voidlands, he got left on hold and started daydreaming about a barren land with crystals that sucked up light and little void creatures scurried around in it. He noted that the lands were probably empty and barren when he daydreamed because of the loneliness he felt while being left on hold all day. Poor Zali T^T. Obviously, my version of the crystal voidlands is very different from what Azali imagined, but it's a nice visual to have and refer to the original, especially when describing the curious crystals! :DD I always thought of these lands as an actual void, with crystals jutting out of patches of dark purple grass in space and most crystals floating around in the void :00 Honestly this whole thing is lowk a creativity dump between me and AZALI, he just doesn't know about it TwT AHAHAHA honestly, i interpret the whole Voices From the True World series as one great story, where AZALI is called to the realm at given times of his life and is forced to adventure through the lands and learn something new about life.
