Thornbirds
Description
Approached by a mysterious man and encouraged to take a chance, Sehun spends his night meeting new people and listening to the various stories they have to tell.
Foreword
A thornbird is "A mythical bird that searches for thorn trees from the day it is hatched. When it finds the perfect thorn, it impales itself, and sings the most beautiful song ever heard as it dies."
This story is centered not around the literal story of the thornbird but its sentiment: that from deliberately inflicted pain, a kind of terrible beauty can arise.
