Chapter three: The first day at the farm

Melida smiled to Zerkis and grabbed by the hand running off to show him around the small farm...

After the left Melida turn to him and with a shy look told him....

Well this..aaaa...is the windmill where we take the bread and turn it into flour but before Zerkis could say anything she started running again....

She then said to him....

-This is the farm where all of the animal are stationed...

And grabbed Zerkis but before running Zerkis stopped her...

-Melida please why are in such a hurry let's enjoy the tour...(he blushed immediately)

Melida staid silent for a while but then she said...

-You see Zerkis It isn't that I want to avoid you it's that I want to get back to work so that I could give it my all...

Zerkis understood that something big had happened but he didn't though that Krigos would be so strick so he didn't really blamed either one of them and so went along with the paste that Melida curved....

An hour passed and the tour was over and so Zerkis went to Krigos so he could be assigned somewhere...

The door to his house opened and saw Krigos by his desks with lots of papers...

-Aahh Zerkis you are here I take it the tour went well...

-Yes Krigos sir it went fine

-First of all boy I am no sir I am Krigos and second...

He laugh for just a second and then looked Zerkis in the eyes abd said...

-Now boy what ever troubles you we shall talked of it at night for now go to the farm and help Icop with the animals....

Zerkis left with a good bye and headed for the farm where he found Icop milking the cows...

Icop hearing Zerkis arriving took his head off from milking and went towards his...

-Hei Zerkis so your first job is by side ha...

Zerkis felt like Icop was glad to see him and that he was getting closer to him...

-Hei Icop, I guess we are parters today

Zerkis said with a smile...

Then Icop showed him how to milk the cows and side by side sat down to get the job done... As the day went along the two of them chatted for a while about how life was on the farm and as expected Icop was looking Krigos as a nice boss in fact he looked at him like a father....

And then Zerkis asked

-So what's your deal why are you here...

Icops face lost that smile he wasn't sad just remembering the past made same bad memories come to light... Krigos realizing that tried to changed the subject but Icop didn't really went along...

-You see Zerkis I was about ten when the war started my country Fetry fell pray to the enemy which at the time was Mandaw and so we escaped here but the guards wouldn't allow me to enter the city but it so happened Krigos was coming out of the city and took me in....

Zerkis then realized that something similar must have happened to Melida and that's why she was so focused on getting back to work...

Then they left the cows and took care of all the work that had to be done on the farm and by the time that they where done night had already approached...

Icop suggested Zerkis to stay for a smoke and some drinks but he remembered that Krigos asked him to find him in the night and so he politely refused...

Then when going back to his cabin he saw Krigos waiting for with the fire on and a warm cup of tea...

Zerkis greeted him and sat down by the fire...

So I take it you learned the answer to your question.. (Krigoz said)

-I have indeed found it but many others where created....

You see I heard of a war what war?...

-You see our land is a small one we live on what is called Bright Island which is estimated to be only 1/300 of the world it is divided into small cities and most of the time there is peace... But from time to time some idiots are lifted into power and want to take over others land... So by war they mean the one that stopped just two months before...

Zerkis understood ruffly what was happening and so changed the subject...

Krigos then said to him...

-Boy you are not ready to head out to the world you lack manners and knowledge both of which I am willing to teach you...

-Please do (said Zerkis)

-Zerkis with me you will learn about the world mostly history and manners one or two more languages and of course farming, now you shall go to Melida for the magic part since she is the best mage in this farm and lastly head for Icop to learn about fighting and healing....

Zerkis was lost he didn't know anything that Krigos said but he was willing to learn...

-So Krigos let's begin

-Hahaha boy relax we have all the time in the world tonight get some sleep and tomorrow we shall begin training...

After saying that Krigos left the room and Zerkis was excited for what just happened but a thought would leave him alone...

Will I go back to the other world???

There was only one way to find out and so he closed his eyes...

He then opened them again and indeed he had arrived back to the church...
