introduction

The story takes place in the continent of Calradia, a beautiful place, when six empires divided the world, namely the Nord Kingdom in the northwest, the Vigia Kingdom in the northeast, the Svadia Kingdom in the middle, the Rhodok Kingdom in the west, the Kugit Khanate in the east, and the Salander Sultanate in the south. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info The Nord Kingdom is close to the sea, occupying the largest bay at that time "Nord Bay", the Kingdom of Virgia is located in the snowfield, snowy all year round, the weather is cold, the Kingdom of Swadia has the largest territorial area, it is the strongest kingdom at that time, the Kingdom of Rhodok is located in the most beautiful west of the continent, mountains, rivers, tropical rainforests, Kugit Khan is located on the plateau, the army is mostly cavalry, is a nomadic people, the Sultan of Saland is located in the desert, Most of the residents covered their faces and wore yellow clothes.

I was born in the rich land of Rhodok, and I heard that there was a famine in my hometown in the year I was born, and the ears of rice were scattered all over the land, and with my father's heart falling on the ground, I was regarded as a disaster, no one liked me, my mother was discriminated against, and my father had no hope for me, and after a great riot, my mother carried me out of that desolate village, and came to the southern desert, where I settled in a village called Kuut.

Now more than 60 years have passed, and I have learned a lot over the years, at least how to be tolerant.

In the winter of the third year of coming to Kuwut, I don't remember if it was winter, because it was very warm in the desert, but in my heart it was colder than the winter in the north, my mother was lying in bed and moaning, she seemed to be in pain, but I couldn't do anything, when it was close to the night, she died, I don't know why I didn't cry, I thought I had seen through the red dust, but now that I think about it, I have a lot to learn.

After my mother died, I ended my life of opening my mouth for food and stretching out my clothes, and I began to learn to be independent, and I helped the villagers on the farm, relying on them to support me with two or three dinars a day. I originally thought that I would live an ordinary life like this, and I was really satisfied to have such a happy life after being discriminated against in my childhood.

But my life was just beginning, so a year later, the Kugit Khanate waged war against the Sultanate of Saland, I was conscripted as a Sudanese warrior, when I received the conscription letter, my heart was complicated, it was obvious that no one was more suitable to participate in this war than me, at least I had nothing to worry about, with me there were twelve village prime, and the best one with me was a man named Muha'i, and on the day we left the village, the women of the village came, old and young, and watched their mother caressing their faces, I held back the tears that I was about to shed, a little girl from the village came up to me, and at the urging of her parents, she gave me a bracelet made of shells in her hand, and in the year of losing my care, I longed for any spiritual comfort, looking at the little girl in front of me, I excitedly picked her up, she seemed very nervous, and kept struggling in my arms.

"What's your name?" Looking at that pure and lovely face, I couldn't help but ask.

"Iaya Yar," she said tremblingly.

I let her go, and she quickly hid behind my mother's back, and that was the happiest moment of the year, and this girl made me feel very different. After a poignant parting, we set out on our journey.

In the endless desert, we thirteen young men on camels marched slowly in a straight line, the maddening heat steamed the earth, the hot air made our formation look a little blurred, the mirage tested our stomach more than once, until we saw a group of swordsmen on horseback slowly approaching us, they were not like the soldiers of the Sultanate, after a period of suspicion, we came to a terrible conclusion, they were the notorious "wolves of the desert", A bandit that has been in the desert for ten years, and they have hijacked more caravans than I have cut ears of wheat.

I was only sixteen years old, and the other twelve were about the same age as me, and we surrendered without any resistance from the fighting spirits of the night before in the village, and they took us prisoners, robbed us of our belongings, took our camels, and took with us the quilts we had used to spend the night. Then they threw us on the vast desert, without even untying the shackles on us, the night was getting closer and closer, the temperature was getting colder and colder, the lack of water for several days exhausted us, we huddled together tightly, feeling the residual warmth of the others, I thought I would die like that, but when I was in despair, I saw the bracelet that the little girl gave me, in the dark night it glowed faintly, it seemed to cheer me up, I touched Muhai beside me, Let him take out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and we will cut the shackles on our hands like that, and we will try to make our movements as loud as possible, so that we can raise our temperature a little, but the silent night is a terrible one, and after a while, three or four people give up in the face of this faint hope.

The next morning, I was glad I was still alive, and I was lucky for my friend Muha'i, who also survived, but the others were not as lucky as us, and the thirteen survived the two of us, and we didn't know how long we would live, so we stayed where we were, and vaguely remembered that we had been there for three whole days, and that we had both survived by drinking the blood of our companions.

But the god of fate was still playing tricks on us, and after Muha'i and I left there, we walked east for two days in a row, but there was nothing but the golden desert, and I shouted at the sand under my feet, catharsis, but all I heard was my own echo.

"Don't stop" was the belief that supported us at that time, I don't know how long I walked, only that I fainted halfway through, and when I woke up, I found myself in a strange house, but I didn't see Muha'i, the man who saved me was a merchant from the Sultanate, and when he was passing through the official road, he saw me fainting on the ground, and he rescued me, and I asked him where it was, and he looked out the window and said to me, "Dukuba." ”

I remember that my recruitment letter was written about the recruitment office in Dukuba, and I was so excited that I not only survived but also reached my destination, and I asked him again

"Did you see a guy dressed like me, he's my friend, we were here together, but I didn't see him."

He looked surprised and said

"Sorry sir, we only saw you on the road and no one else."

After listening to this, I felt a little sad in my heart, why did he leave me, I also felt some worries about his life, maybe there was something unspeakable, I didn't stay in the tavern for long, and resolutely went to the recruiting office.

There were a lot of people there, most of them teenagers about my age, some veterans of the war for many years, looking nearly thirty years old, and some wounded people who had come back from the front, lying on their seats or on the ground, and those who came to join the army were standing in line and giving up their seats to those who were disabled.

I also naturally walked to the back of the line, looking at the crowd in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh, how many people will be harmed by this war, at least I have nothing to worry about, but they are not, thinking of the twelve people who walked with me, their families were still staring at their faces before leaving, but before they arrived, they were swallowed by the terrifying desert.

The queue lasted for nearly a morning, when the sun was shining, and from time to time there were people in the middle who fainted to the ground, and these weak people went to the battlefield to die, because there were more and more people who fainted, and soon it was my turn, and I received a silver sword, and a set of yellow leather armor, and I put on the battle robe and returned to my previous pride.
