With the birth of Loup, life in Rafael's house was much more agitated, Rafael arranged different types of work constantly to get support for his family, while Nathalia looked after the house and the children, Luna whenever she had free time she spent playing with her younger brother, the two lived stuck together.
While learning to fight with her father, Luna's talent was surfacing more and more, the speed she was progressing was monstrous at the same level of Rafael to say the least.
Loup was a baby more quieter than Luna, yet that did not stop him from taking some nights of sleep from Rafael and Nathalia, but now with more experience they managed to take care of their new baby without much difficulty.
A year after the birth of Loup, the village chief and Rafael's father died in his bed with 59-year-old, proud of the way he was, he never met Rafael after the fight they had, he died without ever seen the face of his grandchildren.
He just met the son of Michael, his grandson Klaus, and began to train him early so he doesn't become another error equal to Rafael.
As had been previously determined Michael would become the new leader, first he refused trying to make the council of elders accept Rafael as the new leader, but they refused any kind of proposal, with no other alternative Michael became the new leader and Klaus his heir.
Over time both Loup and Luna were growing up, Nathalia had to be careful when carrying Loup to the market with her if she takes up her eyes for a second he would disappear.
The first time he vanished Nathalia found him listening to the song of a group of birds, the second time he was entering the tavern hearing people screaming and drinking.
No matter where he was, Loup always found the animation of the village, he seemed especially drawn to music, Nathalia did not understand how he could find these places alone.
When Loup made four years his parents began to teach him along with Luna, while Luna trained with Rafael in the morning Nathalia taught Loup how to read and write, in the afternoon the two were taught history and geography with Rafael and math with Nathalia.
Pov Loup
Today is the turn of daddy to teach, I love the stories he tells to us, unlike mommy's of boring lectures, she is always repeating that it is important to know how to count, would be much nicer if Dad gave class every day.
After all the stories of the world outside are much more interesting to know than how many apples I have after eating a bit of them, there are so many exciting things around the world that I get anxious just thinking.
It would be so cool if we all we traveled around the world and we made a visit to all the places of dad's stories.
Rafael: "Well children we will start class today, but first what I taught to you in the last class?"
Luna: "You talked about the different nations spread over Ardren, as the continent is very large there are hundreds of different nations across the continent."
Loup: "Uh-huh, and you also told us how the village was created, our ancestor Eliot Reed, the last master of the sword Silfarion fought his last battle at the base of the great mountain Krasurst."
Luna: "There he and his companions, leading a small army of 1,000 men broke into the enemy fortress which contained more than 10,000 soldiers."
Loup: "After dominating the enemy fortress their master appeared and asked for a duel against Eliot in the plains of Langridge, the battle between them was so colossal that separated this side from the continent's land, making it become an island." My eyes glittered only imagine such a spectacular battle as well.
Luna: "After winning the battle Eliot helped create a new kingdom in the new island and one of his companions Thomas Etrein became king. Thus was born the kingdom of Etrein 300 years ago. "
Loup: "But those who wanted to follow Eliot came with him and created a secret village on the edge of the island where the only one who knew its location was the king of Etrein, residents left their children a mission to help the hero when he arises again. "

Rafael: "Very good. I'm happy that you are paying attention in class" I could see a little smile on our father's face.
Rafael: "Well now tell me, have you heard of any other race besides humans?"
Luna: "Other races? You mean other intelligent beings like elves and dwarves? "Asked Luna
Rafael: "That's right. Luna" He looked at Luna with approval and stroked her head.
Loup: "What are elves and dwarves father?"
Rafael: "Well son in our world there are other intelligent living beings only that they are different from humans, elves and dwarves are a few examples of races that exist."
Loup: (Elves, Dwarves, other races, I want to see them, how are they ? What they eat, what they look like, humans can talk to them What they do, what are their skills , where they live , ahahah this is so cool to think that humans are not the only ones who inhabit the continent.)
Loup: "Speak more about the other races, Dad."
Rafael: "Well there are several races and even I don't know all, the most popular are the elves, dwarves, vampires, beasts men, orcs, goblins, gnomes and halfling."
Rafael: "The elves is tall people living in forests are great users of magic and amazing archers, their greatest feature is the pointy ears, their lifetime is so long that many believe that they are immortal."
Rafael: "Dwarves unlike the elves are low and robust, they are very strong physically and live in the mountains because they love looking for precious materials such as silver and jewelry, they are very good with manual production work, and magnificent blacksmiths, the best weapons in the world are made by dwarves, and also the best drinks because the dwarves love to go drink in a tavern.
Rafael: "We do not know much about vampires, but they are beings living by drinking the blood of other races, they are undead so they don't age, they too can not go out in the sun, its greatest feature is their extremely pale skin and the pointed canines. "
Rafael: "The beasts men is generally as we call them, they have many different espèces, it's all race featuring humanoids and animal characteristics."
Rafael: "Orcs are extremely aggressive creatures who are always fighting and plundering other races, they are always hungry, and procreate very fast, they always have a lot of numbers, and are generally physically stronger than humans, but most of them are dumb, so we can fight on equal terms against them. "
Rafael: "The goblins and gnomes I do not know much about them, I just know that they are very good at building, always doing different machines to compensate for the fact that they are not very good with magic."
Rafael: "The hobbits are a small race like the dwarves with hands and feet and large, they are pacific so they rarely participate in contests, but they are very good at sneak and go unnoticed."
Loup ". WOWWWWWWW THAT'S SO COOL" My scream echoed through the house.
Luna: "But father which is the most powerful race?"
Luna made an interesting question, which really is the strongest race.
Rafael: "Well that's a tough question, but if we evaluate in a one on one fight, the strongest race would be without a doubt the dragons."
Loup: "Dragons?"
Rafael: "Yes dragons are an extremely intelligent and proud race, they are huge beasts that have scales that protect their body from any weapon or magic, with their wings they fly freely through the sky, they can breathe fire and melt anything in their path, they are very greedy also love bright things, even more than the dwarves, they are without doubt the emperors of the sky. "
Loup: "wowwww then they can beat anyone?"
Rafael: "Well if they ..." Before he could continue."
Nathalia: "Okay that's enough for today, time to get your next class" Mom emerged with paper and ink. "Today you will not get up until you answer all questions."
Luna and Loup: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
The shouts of Luna and Loup could be heard throughout the neighborhood.
