Chapter 01 : First Ecounter on Unknown Village Part 01

When Musa woke up, he sees the sky. The cloud is moving ever slowly with a strong breeze, made the green grass moving back and forth. As he stand up, he sees scenery he had never seen before.

“Just where am i?”

He thought that as he tried to remember what happen last night. But, nothing comes up. Last night, he only remembers bits of his memory, but don`t know if he remembering it right.

As he tried to remember the events last night, he sees some smoke rising up in the distance. He decides to walk toward them. Before long, he sees a road made a dire.

[Well, which way to go now?]

Musa seem worried whether to go to his right toward the forest where he sees smoke rising from the distance or to the left.

[Nothing comes up if I stay here. Alright, let`s go that way, toward the forest]

He decides to go to the forest as he continues to walk without feeling discouraged. After some time walk through the forest, finally, he found a small village in the vicinity.

The majority of this village is farmers and most of them are middle aged western man. As he expected, this is not Asian, but a foreign country. In other words, he woke up at some place on earth without proof of identification and they probably doesn`t speak the same language as him.

“So, what now? Should i go and called out to them to get help?”

As Musa think hard about whether should he visit the village or not, the villager there seems to notice him and looked at his way while saying something to the nearby villagers.

He thought, it would be too much trouble if villager here thought him as suspicious persons, he decides to take the initiative and tried talking to them with humble manners.

[Um, hello there. Do any of you can speak English?]

Musa walks along the path between the fields while putting on a bitter smile. Among the villager, a woman, with a red and slightly darker hair, probably in her mid forties, walks slowly to approach him while saying...

[We have never seen you before, but, judge by your robe... are you one of the priest who comes from the capital city?]

Musa was bewildered by her response. He doesn`t understand why she thought him as a priest. Actually, what is a priest? Is it some kind of game character who use staff and cast healing magic spell?

At least, this village knows how to speak English and that is a good start.

As he looks around, he saw a simple wooden and stone with one-story house building. Then, as he took his times to look around, the women that had been talking to Musa, look at him, urge him to give some explanation.

Musa then unfolded his arms and putting a wry smile as he tried to make up a cover story as his background.

[Ah, sorry. I'm just a servant of God who looking for a place to spend the night. My name is Musa, wish to make your acquaintance]

When they heard the word “Servant of God”, the woman and other villagers seem to loosen up. They probably mistook Musa as priest.

[WA- wait while I call the village chief... no, I think it's better if you meet him yourself. Please come along, I`ll take you to the chief house]

Musa, who heard a positive answer from the village, smiling while saying [Please do!] to the woman who tried invite her along, while muttering [So far so good] inside his head.

Then, he thought, if he could make a good impression on this village chief, he might use this chance to figure out where he is.
