The Legend of Runa

The Legend Of Runa Animated Introduction

“Freedom.”

When I came to Earth, I learned this word and the weight it actually carries. Such a short, simple word, but, gosh what a difficult thing to achieve.

My name is Runa. And yes, I am an outsider. An outcast. An alien, literally and figuratively. Misunderstood. Unnoticed and too noticed at the same time. The world, the planet that I’m stuck in accidentally called Earth, which I though would give me answers, only gave me more questions that I couldn’t answer. Will I ever be free? Will I ever thrive? Will I ever be accepted and loved? I have so much ideas I want to put out to the world. I want to express all the thoughts. Could there be someone out there, somewhere, who shares the same loneliness? That question. That curiosity. Led me to start an organization I hope you will find interesting. A safe place where everyone’s uniqueness and creativity is welcome and appreciated; Quantum Indigo.

You may be a thriving artist, an illustrator. The world stereotypes you as a “hungry” artist. Or you may be a very talented musician. They hear your music, but they don’t listen. They never let it in. Perhaps you may be passionate in making stories, novels, you have an extensive imagination you can even create worlds! But they judge you. They don’t understand. Or you’re too afraid of judgment and you just keep it to yourself. Maybe you love dressing people and creating personalities. But they find your designs too scandalous. Nobody appreciates it. You feel like giving up. Well don’t. Because I didn’t. And I’m happy I didn’t give up. Let me tell you my story…

Runa: Age 17

I really love this road. It makes me forget everything. Just me, the wind coming at me, my motorcycle vibrating underneath my body, the flashing lights from the lamp posts, and this beautiful road ever so stretching far, far away. I feel like I’m actually free.

Sometimes I feel like I’m flying across the galaxy. Lightweight. No heaviness. Not a single molecule of my body feels like it holds any weight. I’m like a feather in space. My mind empty. Empty good. No troubles.

Flying away from the memories of pain that still haunt me. Pain which also makes me STRONGER.

The feelings of SPEED AND DANGER are incredible! The world appears to slow down before me and everything becomes a blur…

I vividly remember the day I set foot on Earth like it was just yesterday…

Runa: Age 7

When I was seven, I sneaked out and borrowed my parents’ ship and voyaged towards Earth with Luna, my 350-year-old Godfather and mentor. I just need answers to my questions, I told him. I needed to do it so that I can prove the others. Prove my point to my older sister when we got into a small fight, which I regretted shortly after. Because it wasn’t a “quick” trip at all. Unfortunately, we crash landed on Earth after being blown away by some unknown force.
