Description

Lucky to be born as the little brother of the empire's military commander, Kyungsoo thought he'd be leading an easy life of safety and security.
Unlucky to be born powerless unlike the rest of the Carriers, Kyungsoo knew he'd have to work hard to prove himself worthy of respect.

But what could a Lightless soldier of the empire possibly do when commanded to destroy an entire exiled civilization?

Definitely not what he chose to do.

- Contains minor descriptions of violence.
- Minor character deaths.

Let me know what you think! ♡

Foreword

This idea came to life after being in hibernation for over a year, thanks to the release of "When the Fires Come" by Kero Kero Bonito.
I noticed many of my ideas happen thanks to songs... Which is okay!

I guess this could be considered my first... Fantasy story? I've always feared going into those because of the worldbuilding and the amount of details that can get lost. (I chopped off so much to make the story flow TT)
But I had a ton of fun creating this universe from zero, and I hope you'll enjoy exploring it!

Thank you Frey once more for the endless support, and a few more non-fandom friends who will never read this hahaha. I love you!!

A chapter will be posted every day until the end of the story!

Chapter 14: <span class='smalltext text--lighter'>Comment on <a href='/story/view/1418929/14'>Chapter 14</a></span>
Idk if I've commented on this story yet (can't remember) but let me say now... it's incredible. Absolutely incredible. Imagery, suspense, conflict, drama, romance, utopian vs dystopian societies, personal and moral struggles, inequality (lightness/ carriers), political struggles... it's all here, painted into a gripping story that has me hanging on tightly from chapter to chapter. The level of detail for all aspects of the story is so great and well delivered that I feel like I'm watching a movie. It could be published IMO!



So much has happened at this point that I wanted to comment on, but I'll just focus on this last chapter. I feel everything - the desperation of the team to save the beautiful fire island and it's people... the desperation of Chanyeol seeing Kyungsoo take his ultimate action... the desperation of Kyungsoo himself, a simple lightless, risking everything to save what he loves; and the courage and love from them all.

It's all so much, and it's so well done!



I'm not really saying anything well I guess, but I hope I convey how much I love and appreciate this work. I think it's phenomenal, and I think it should go further than here. Thanks so much for writing it!

BTW - using the pair's number for part of ID...Love that!

Chapter 9: It seems that all the crew knew about lightless kyungsoo and he himself didn't know hhhhhhh I didn't think yixing could act against what he believes, that was shocking .when kyungsoo told chanyeol about the cruelty of the world and how he should prepare himself, it reminded me when baek said in an interview that chanyeol has a pure heart need to be protected .

Chapter 8: I was crying in silent the moment chanyeol set beside kyungsoo..... I hate about death at thirty..the all chapter is sad because it reveals the truth about everything specially fighting for freedom that could lead to death.

Chapter 7: I can see that suho is more braver than kyungsoo, he saw something is not right against people that found loveable and living in peace, tried to fix it even against his own team . Suho had courage to do what he sees right .kyungsoo is just a coward, even when he fall in love with the island he is still afraid of his brother decision and didn't think of a way to help.

Chapter 6: Is suho pregnant?? Hhhhhh .... it seems as if the love seed planted inside chanyeol and kyungsoo, hoping to see it flourish
