(3rd-Person Narrator: Roaring Thunder)

Roaring Thunder was a family man. He had to be one because he was mayor of the Aurea. Although it was a title of dignity in other lands, in truth, Roaring Thunder was nothing but a middleman.

Names of Aurea descent always described their magical ability, which, in turn, described their own personality. This simplicity and honesty spoke truly of their people, as this logic applied to the positions held in Aurea society. It drastically contrasted with the empty and vain names other nations would inherit.

They also never forgot their ancestors: the Aurea remembered them as historical lessons and therefore dedicated them in texts that would stand the tests of time. Even if the Aurea never forgot anything, their basis as a society was farming after all…

Roaring Thunder lived in a normal home. And there, he lived with his wife of 35 years, Stormy Wind, his 18-year-old daughter, Clear Aqua, and his 10-year-old son, Pulsing Air.

Stormy Wind oozed femininity and grace with her long legs, curvaceous torso, and voluptuous thighs. She seemed to be at odds with Roaring Thunder's size, but her fiery personality made sure that their relationship lasted. Stormy Wind was feisty, which she put to use in dealing with uproarious patients.

Clear Aqua was an aloof young woman. She kept a reserved air about her and her movements held a restrained elegance and experience. Her naming ceremony was also strange, as Clear Aqua preferred using the language of the first Aurea. Whatever it was, Clear Aqua used her talents in cuisine.

Pulsing Air contrasted his sister dramatically. He was an outgoing child that sought to interact with everyone. His charm and tenacity proved to make his skilled in many aspects and much more knowledgeable. Pulsing Air was groomed to be fit for great things in the future.

This was Roaring Thunder's family. The ones dear to his heart; the ones he had to protect. None were able to replace them and none held such an influence over his heart. His nature just didn't allow for it. His days started and would end for them.

Every morning, Roaring Thunder would eat the standard healthy but delicious meal. They were recommended by Aurea whose hobby was to tinker in the medical field. Their cooperation with Aurea cooks created a never-ending list to suit the taste of any Aurea that boosted health and vitality to boot.

After wishing his family goodbye, Roaring Thunder would attend 1 of 10 other town meetings held every day. Logos divided meetings based on what need was addressed. It would be hard to assemble, communicate, and solve problems with too many people- especially over 10,000 people.

Roaring Thunder dealt with management. He coordinated the use of materials, as well as relations between departments. Of course, every meeting was in public, as to get the opinions of all Aurea addressed. This usually lasted until sunup.

Then he'd go for some entertainment: watch the play of a theater group, listen to a concert, contribute his own works of art and various other activities. Sometimes Roaring Thunder went to party with friends. Sometimes he went with his family for an outing. Sometimes he went on a lovely date with his wife. He usually would finish near sundown.

At that time, Roaring Thunder cleaned himself at a public bathhouse. Then he would talk with his family about their day- sometimes even as they bathed. There was no shame in revealing one’s own body to the Aurea.

(Logos) "All life holds its own beauty and should not be suppressed, as it would be unhealthy."

Logos said so and thus this lesson stayed in their hearts.

The Aurea were always open with their feelings, after all, and felt that nothing should be kept to oneself. To build a better relationship, you need to understand each other’s desires, so each worry can be dealt with. This built an open community which knew intimately of one another. Their cooperation was fantastic too and at the cause of much of their progress.

Today, Roaring Thunder spoke to his curious family about the new stranger that came to town. The encounter was an interesting tale and few details were available to the public. This was because their arrival was after meetings were held, and not many could be informed in such a short time. There were only rumors of the complications that the medical practitioners announced about the intruder’s failing health.
