Papoi Village - early morning.
In a small village of 80 residents, lies a home with a mother and her son both of which are getting ready for the days challenges.
Mother: Are you sure you want to do this laturn, you know you can stay here and become a gate keeper for the village, you don't have to go to the kingdom and risk your life for people you have never met before.
Laturn: yes dear mother I know very well that I don't have to, but...I want to protect people they may not be people I have never met before but that doesn't make them any less important and not worthy of protection, don't worry I'll visit whenever I can, and half of my earnings will be sent back here for you.
Mother: "sigh" I can't stop you can I, well it was worth a try but look at you all grow up and 16 years old already, it feels like just yesterday I was changing you britches.

[On kepi highway the road to the kingdom]
Laturn: well it's time to start my journey to the kingdom, hopefully I get accepted into the rank of the luminaries, I heard the test to get in is a little harsh.
And I only just awakened my luminesce maybe I should have focused more on increasing how much I have in reserve instead of control, ugh stop it you won't get anywhere worrying about maybe 's just focus on what you can do in the moment laturn.
*Sigh* I wish Dad was here but...two years ago he was killed by monsters while on a mission one day, I have some big shoes to feel since he was the lieutenant of the dragon squadron, I hope I glam able to get into their ranks.
