Project Dream
World is full of mysteries and magic, for humans to find and conquer.
In the far north, where snow and ice never melts….
Wait. Not that north.
At the border of Great Glacier of Kingdom of Rubec. In small valley safe from the glacier winds, lies a small village of the human tribe. Around 600 people live in this village. They live from the river that starts below the glacier and ends to the vast Great Snake Ocean at the southwest and from the deer and game that live in the area. Some of the families do have small fields that supply grains for bread and alike.
In this evergreen valley at the hearth of winter storm. In a house not too big or too small. Can be heard a cries of an ordinary woman.
Woman shouted help for her labour pains, reaching for his husband hands only to find that he has fainted and was lieing at the floor.
“Curse you stupid fool” – woman
Older woman noticed the Fool and yelled at his husband that was waiting behind doors.
“Drag your son outside” – grandma
“What?, ooh, okey” –grandpa
Pains of first labour written in face of the woman, half an hour later baby was born and as the first cries of new life filled the house, with tiers of happiness grandmother washed the baby fast before putting it inside a blanked, and giving the baby to the mother of the child whilst saying it’s a boy.
“My baby boy” -Tired but extremely happy woman.
POV- mother
It was warm summer breeze, in the following year
I was making deer stew for my Fool and my rising star, who was crawling all around the house finding new things to explore and see. Almost every night he would cry and laugh silently in his sleep, this worried me so I asked mother in law about this, but she said it was normal for him to go thru daily things in his sleep.
My sons mind is true wonder. While humming one our folk songs I heard a crash from living room. I run to see what happened to find Rain my son fallen on his face while holding pained expression small tiers in his eyes, while waiting to hear him to start crying, he held tiers in and turned to sit again. He reached his small arms to table leg while taking support from it, slowly rising on his feet and standing. He seemed extremely happy for his achievement and then he noticed me, and turned to face me and took few wobbling steps.

“Maam” – Rain
It was shock it has only been 7 months and he said his first word while taking his first steps. Elated by this soon to find him again face planting the floor this time he started crying. I reached my arms to him lifting him up against my chest and started humming soothing song, to ease the pain. While thinking of telling my Fool about this later when he gets home.
4 years later at autumn
Young boy, short deep dark brown hair, curious black eyes, was putting his packed lunch that mother Airi gave, to his small satchel. It was his first time to go with his father Fool. To hunt food for upcoming winter.
Yes his name is Fool.
He took his satchel and run to his father that was waiting outside with Blackie, fathers most trusted companion Warwolf, 3 meters length and 1,7 meters height. As the name suggest entirely black wolf exept few white spots on its back and forehead.
Rain gave his satchel to his father, who attached it to blackes back along with few supplies needed on this hunt. While blackie was licking Rains face as greeting, while rain giggled.
His father had 2 bows straped on his back one small, and one bigger, former was normal hunting bow and later was warbow from his time in the military.
Mother-Airi with round belly stood at the door while looking bit worried “Remember its only one night trip”
“yes, yes” -father while holding smug smile and shaking his head.
Father is quite fit man, broad shoulders with black fluffy full beard with white stripes and bald, not by choice. Biceps thick as mans thigh. He was strong hunter that earned his 200-man command in army with gorilla style warfare in conflict between Kingdom of Rubec and its rival kingdom of Loth.
His mother was a petit woman with light brown hair that flowed little past her shoulders, she was originally from Loth and was caught in the war but was saved by The Fool while her whole family perished in the war.
“Lets go, lets go dad” – Rain
“yeah lets, before mother decides to stop us”- Dad
While waving, to his mother and dragging his father to move, excitement plastered to his face.
Boys journey to whatever future was about to start.
