3 A Mystical World (1/2)
A year and a few months pa.s.sed quickly, I'm finally able now to move my limbs. I'm 1 year and 9 months old. I can walk, not properly but still enough to feel myself a little bit more free.
”Varos ! Come, we're going to the market !” My mom shouted from the living room.
I walked quickly to my mother. Fortunately, there are no stairway between my room and the living room, I can walk but descending stairways might have been a big problem.
Today, we're going to the market of the village to buy vegetables.
During the year, I learned more and more thing from the place I'm in. Now, I can confirm with certainty that I'm in a new world. I was born in the village of Kapi which is populated by approximately 150 peoples, in Ekaloda's nation, in the continent of Magna. There are two others continents in this world, Vivem and Artes. It's said that the names of those continents comes from the servants of G.o.d who created those continent.
I quickly joined my mother, I held her hand and we went out together to the market. The village market is not huge, but is quite diversified. Today's vegetables will be used for the meals of this week. We only eat meat once a week, meat is a luxury food in this world.
The market isn't far from home, in fact, the most furthest place from home while walking take around 1 hour to get there. It takes around 15 minutes to get to the market too.
Along the way, I a.n.a.lyzed as always the architecture of the houses and the streets. The town look like a village of Europe from the Middle Age. We arrived quickly at the market.
”What would you like to eat today darling?” My mother asked me tenderly.
”Anything” I answered as always. I am not picky with food and there are few meals that my mother can do. Or it would be more accurate to say that we can not afford to buy other seasoning for more varied dishes.
I would have liked to eat meat but meat is a luxury here. We can barely eat meat once a week and on a small portion, which is almost tasteless, mixed with a traditional soup of vegetable and for accompaniment a little bit of bread.
I don't know the fauna and the flora present in this world, if the animals are similar like my old world or not or if there are magical beasts or something.
The only animals my parents told me about is the ”polam”, which is the most common meat eaten here and look like chicken, and the ”preglin”, which is some sort of a giant rat that leave his home at night and stay near the town, and according to them, like to eat kids too... I doubt of the validity of their words, I guess they told me that to scare me and me make not want to leave the village.
As always, my mother seemed a little disappointed with my response, always monotonous. A child of my age should be more daring and more active, but I always seemed to be silent and gloomy, not the shy type of kid, but rather the strange type of kid.
While my mother bought the vegetables, my eyes were fixed on a stall where there were items. From what I've learned, these items are called varian items. Varian items, or varian relics are objects that are built with specific materials that interact with Ki and give a unique use to the object. Ki is one of the peculiarities of this world, it resides in every humans and is present in the air. This allows to increase the senses as well as the physical according to what I understood.
