The Road Doesn't Seem So Long (When You're With Me)

Description

Kyungsoo doesn’t remember how he’d arrived at the orphanage, but the story fuels his dreams and his fantasies for many, many years after that. Armed with just his brain and his lifelong friend Chanyeol, Kyungsoo sets out on a dangerous and exciting, monster-filled quest, crossing land and sea, to find out where he came from and where his true home really is.

Foreword

Written for Strength In Fire and dedicated to the mods.
This was inspired by the animated film Anastasia, the Silver Phoenix books by Cindy Pon, The Two Princesses of Bamarre by Gail Carson Levine, Final Fantasy, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Pokémon, and various MAMA!AU adventure/quest fanfics (particularly Bee's Moonlight and my own #ffau). I hope it does it all justice, and I hope you like it.
Gowan (daisy) and Merle (blackbird) are both archaic Scottish words. I figured it fit.
Thank you to everyone who helped me plot this, especially Bee, who is amazing. <3
