[On the same birthday]

"I tell you Cedric our little ray spoke his first word!" My mom excitedly told my dad.

I sat on top of the table looking between my mother and father with an interesting look how this plays out.

My brother is still out and Amara is sitting on a chair near me and also looking at the scene that is unfolding but she looks more worried than happy me. 'Well sis I doubt that you can understand why mum is in an uproar about me.' I thought to myself.

"Honey there is no way ray is already capable of speaking he is only one" my dead tried to reason with mum.

I decided on a whim to proof him wrong even if it still stung in my throat.

As my dad was looking at me I forced a hand to point at Amara and said "Amy"

The jaw drop that followed that action was legendary!

I grinned and laugheat that display I could not help it my mom jumped in and just said "seee!" While motioning to me.

"ahhh….our boy a Genuis?" My dad said in disbelief and in that instance my laughter died with a chill down my spine.

'Nope nope no way in hell will i go to some kind of prodigy school or something resembling one! Had over 20 years of school in my old life maybe to learn this worlds history and magic but nope nothing more!' At the thought of my past school life my face paled considerably what prompted my mum du snatch me up and comfort me while tapping my back assuming I choked on my spit while I was laughing. Amara.. jepp I will call her only Amy from here on.

Was confused to no end "ok?" She asked in a cracked tone that indicated that she was ready to cry. Well dad had to snatch her up to comfort her "yes Amara everything is ok"

A bit of banter and antics later me and my sister laid in the floor on pelts arm in arm sleeping peacefully.

"I cant belive it" cedric said while his wife hugged him from the side while watching the two children sleeping arm in arm "me neither" She agreed "we need to earn more money so we can support his growth" cedric lamented she just noded "you know that we will get past everything life will throw at us right? just like old times" his wife comforted him.

[The next day]

Now I knew why my brother was not here yesterday he asked our parents to sleep over by a friend of his but he at least tried to make up for it in playing with me all day on one side I was happy to spend time with my brother on the other I was only a bit annoyed that I can not experiment with the system more in that time but hey playing Knight is fun sure I'm only a crawling Knight with a wooden spoon as a sword but what ever should boys play if they are alone at home.

First I though my brother is jealous because I gather much attention from our parents but apparently he just needed a bit of time for himself to sort out his feelings and in that moment I swore that I will be there for my family whenever they need me even if they only need an ear to listen.

[A few days later]

Ok i am officially dumbfounded.

I experimented with the system more and I had an eye opening discoveries there is a ducking terminal!

The first thing I did was the typical help command and the typical Linux response answered me who in their right mind thought of putting Linux inside a status system sure it is highly customizable but I was using it mostly with a gui i know the vi editor a bit and I know old school administrators say it is a powerful tool but still what the hell do I have to tell that I come from a IT family in my old life?

After a bit directory browsing I can tell that it is my system my root directory is "ray" while I can access my root as a reader i can only write inside my own added directorys and yes my hud and log functions i created with thoughts are there writable but aperantly I am not able to write in my attributes section. there goes my chance of cheating my way to a dream body he he he..... well found a folder "spells" empty of course but that gives me hope to program my own spells but still will need the syntax first for that and vi do not have syntax highlighting what is infuriating if I think about that .....but maybe what if the hud and system screens are the gui and I can create an editor with the features i need? That is something I have to explore for the future but here comes mom and her timing! Damit.

[Later in the evening]

'For ducks sake mum do not drag me around the village all day while I was about to decipher critical things' I complained to myself

But for my mother's sake I played the energetic bundle of happiness i should be as a child.

I met plenty of peopl today because only after the first year born my mum was sure enough that I would be okay outside of the house at least with her carrying me

Uncle Alistor is the village head jep you heard that right and he forced me to say uncle Ali....at least I obliged him with a baby version of that because even now my voice is easy to strain even while I bable around as often as I can when no one is listening in

And i am even speaking song texts just for training my voice.

I have so much to do but you know what I decided to let this whole terminal fiasco be my head ached already with what I saw inside some data files with the vi editor

And I have a full life ahead of me so I can always pick it back up at later dates experiment a bit and let it be again.

So for now my family comes first with lots of happiness.
