After many years of developing, rewriting, and preparing, I am excited to finally reveal what is essentially a passion project for me, “The Shadow's Light;” a crossover video series that aims to retell and revamp the events of The Legend of Spyro. Not through the perspective of Spyro, however, but through that of another purple dragon with different beginnings. This is no longer the story of someone who meets and follows their destiny. This project tells the story of someone who questions their purpose and existence, choosing to run from their destiny instead of fulfill it.

New characters are being added and old characters will return, being further developed while staying true to their versions in the games. World building has been expanded, adding in different cultures, dragon races, and realms from previous Spyro games, including the original three on ps1. While the project keeps with the original lore of TloS as much as possible, there has been some major changes, one of the most noticeable changes being the dragons themselves. They are no longer 'just' dragons, but a race of humans granted the ability to shift into the great beasts and use their elemental magic in either form. Another major change would be the “crossover” mentioned earlier. This video series will be combining TloS with another property. It will serve a large purpose in the story, helping develop the main character as events play out and adding in a new villain who will play a huge role. While said property will not be revealed at the moment, small hints will be given with each update until the big reveal. In fact, as a first hint, it is not another video games series.

Each week, I will be updating with concept art, storyboards, and more information that will give further perspective on this project. I'm sorry if what I've said here so far seems vague and somewhat confusing (I'm honestly very bad at summarizing), but I want this to be slowly built up until the first episode is finished. This is something that is honestly very important to me and has been in development for, no exaggeration, near 10 years. The idea for this first popped into my head all that time ago and, since then, I have written and rewritten the story over and over again until I felt it was perfect. I've also developed (and continue to develop) my art and storytelling skills almost solely to work on this. I love both TloS and the property this will crossover with tremendously and they both are part of why I am who I am today.

I hope what I've written here today, while not much, is at least enough to give you some intrigue and interests you enough to see what I have to share in the future. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you have a great day.
