《Ardent Tears》Guide — Beasts of Ferran - The Vhoraks

Vhoraks
Vhoraks are a type of Moon-touched Creature, Originally, they were a rather mundane mammal akin to a ferret or a weasel. The main difference is that they have notably longer legs. This all changed at the start of the last epoch, 1926 years before the naming of the third Ardent Flame of Midiris.
For those that don't use Ferran calendar, this aligns with the double solar eclipse anomaly that caused the first generation of Ferran to arise from the humans that lived under the lunar shadow during totality.
As previously mentioned, Vhoraks are Moon-touched, much like the Ferran, and were thus dramatically changed by the event. They went from small carnivorous mammals to being ferocious predators with needle like fangs and horrifying razor claws. This change also came with a significant increase in size and the gaining of a third eye.
The Vhoraks can be recognised by their long slender forms, white fur and distinctive red patterns. Should you see a Vhoraks, run and pray they didn't see you. Each of their eyes serves a different purpose that makes them deadly optical trackers. Their left eye can see infra-red, their right eye can sea scents, and their third eye can see auras. To make matters worse, a single Vhoraks can eat an entire person in a single sitting.
There is, however, one trait that makes Vhoraks even more terrifying than any of the ones that have been discussed so far. That is their ability to control the wind and use it as a weapon or tool. This required a large amount of energy which is fuelled by their voracious appetites. This is similar to an Ardents ability to generate/emit energy (typically heat or electricity, but sometimes light) with their anger. Like with Ardents, they don't actually eat enough to fully fuel the ability, so is believed that the additional power comes from their connection to the other side.

Modern Age Online Book 1
(Book Two on Amazon here) (Book Three on Amazon Here) Both books should be available through Kindle Unlimited. It is the Future. The realm of online video game entertainment has grown, creating vast and wonderous worlds for people to explore and enjoy. This is the story of Kaleb, a young gamer, and his adventures in the latest Super-Hero Virtual reality MMO: Modern Age Online. Join him as he takes on villains (both player and NPC), joins forces with other player heroes, and even deals with some of the bureaucracy of being a hero in a perfect virtual recreation of the world. No cheats, no guides, just one newbie Super-Hero against the forces of villainy in his new virtual home. Notes: 1.) While not my first time writing, this is my first time throwing anything I've written at the tender mercies of the internet. All criticisms welcome. 2.) Just to inform people early: There is no evil corporation looking to control the world with VR, there is no Krueger-esque "if you die in the game, you die for real.", and this isn't a story of some OP harem-loving god of the system. Nothing wrong with those stories this just isn't one. This is a simple story about a guy playing a game and finally 3.) This story is extremely rough, i did very little editing, this is just me gauging interest really. oh, and English is my 1st language, if for some reason you find that important. Note 2) from now on Book 1 will exist in its entirety on Royal Road while Books 2 and 3 (and any others) will be released on Amazon. I want to thank everyone who has been reading and has taken this weird journey with me. I will continue to write in my spare time and will always be thankful to Royal Road for giving me a space to be creative. Thank you to everyone.
