Lunari Driftwing by SweetySpiced on DeviantArt
Lunari Driftwing is a sky-born spirit said to appear on nights when lanterns float freely and wishes are carried by the rain. It does not come from the clouds, nor from the ground, but from the space in between, where quiet hopes linger before they are forgotten.Long ago, artisans who folded paper lanterns and ceremonial kites believed that every careful crease held intention. Over time, some of those intentions gathered enough warmth to awaken. Lunari Driftwing was born from one such moment, crafted unknowingly from patterned paper soaked in moonlight, patience, and soft joy. Its body resembles a living kite, light enough to drift yet strong enough to endure gentle storms.Its surface is covered in floral patterns, each one said to represent a memory of a peaceful evening. Laughter heard from afar, the glow of lanterns reflected in wet stone, the calm feeling of standing still while the world moves slowly around you. When rain falls, Lunari Driftwing does not flee. Instead, it glides lower, letting droplets slide across its paper skin like whispered blessings.Small golden charms hang beneath its wings, chiming softly as it moves. These sounds are almost impossible to hear clearly, but many claim they feel calmer when Lunari Driftwing passes overhead. Children say it smiles because it remembers being dreamed into existence. Elders say it smiles because it has seen countless wishes rise and fall, and knows that even unfulfilled ones still mattered.Lunari Driftwing rarely lands. When it does, it chooses quiet gardens, rooftops, or festival grounds after the crowds have gone. It rests only long enough to recharge its patterns with new stories before lifting itself back into the glowing night.It is not a creature meant to be owned or summoned. It appears when it wants to remind the world that beauty can be delicate, fleeting, and still deeply meaningful.If you ever spot Lunari Driftwing drifting between lantern lights, it means the night has decided to be kind.
