"In the Valley of Sun there was never darkness, there was always a sun that shown, but it had never gotten too hot. There was always shade and trees and water for all. With grate walls on all sides and a river that flowed down a steep mountain and then settled in a large lake that was partially covered under one valley wall. The inhabitants were always protected from outsiders by these landmarks, only knowing the Valley. All accept for the grate birds that lived and protected it. They were much larger than the Falcons in today's time. Rakkin was their leader of the valley protector at this time. His ancestors chose to make this place the clans home because of how peaceful it was, and were determined to keep it this way. Rakkin took his job seriously, and when an eclipse threatened to destroy the valley, Rakkin sacrificed his life by flying so high that he blocked the spitting fire from the sun.
