It is my first day in the school. Nun Susan is out teacher. She is going to teach us read and gain knowledge about the world.

I´m going there with my lunch box. Other equipment aren´t needed yet. Since all learning material is in the school. If we want to study or do homework. It has to do in school ground.

The first thing what we new students learned was all students names. There is only one class. There is 31 students with different ages. Herman and I both are only new students here. Everyone seems to be about 7-12 years old. Older person are either studying or about to start the work.

Almost no one is going away from here. Of course most people are going to marriage or work with tar. Almost no one is going to use thing learned from here in the future.

Only way normal person could use knowledge came from here is to go else where or join the church. Becoming one personel in church means you can read knowledge which isn´t even allowed to be read by the king. If person want to read all kinds of book they have to become priest or some other member of church.

Knowledge is power and it isn´t easy to optain. Reason for it is that all book have to be write one at the time which takes time and resources.

Days in school can be very long and boring but sometimes time flyes and is interesting. Of course it is because all students study in same class. That´s why it was difficult to keep up with the class. That´s why students help us sometimes and two of us will help in the future next students.

Of course not everyone can get to school for family reasons. Mainly reason is people think that there is no use of any knowledge in they lifes. That´s why both me and Herman show people how we use thing learned in school. For examble we made compass and showed how people outside the village use tar for keeping products save.

We wanted people to stop using trade with different products. Instead use money to buy thing. Since that way people get clearer picture of salary from their work. There is problem of how much you have to pay for different things. With money everyone is going to pay exact same amount.

This is even more important since we are living in border. Every country use different currency. Tetrao village is tar and trade village, but hardly no original citicens works in trade. This has to change in future.

Also school teach us what kind of place outside world is. It seems like in Dialkas has lot of riches, but mountains prevent the effective exchange trade with others. Traveling between countries takes long and path is dangerous.

In Saisagus there are lot of people but land isn´t well suited for cattle nor fields. They need food from other countries to cope with difficult times. Secondly they have mines and technology. Because of that there is huge wall between poor and rich.

Polgon kingdom is compared to other two way more self oriented than them. But they don´t have any mine were metals could be found. That´s why their culture is primitive compared to other two. It seems like they are progressing rabidly, but their identity is still quite vague.

There is other countries, but they are separated by difficult land and environment so we hardly know anything what happens there.

This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.

The largest change in the village in these three years the fact that second prince Peter has choosen to stay here. It seems like viscount and prince talked together in the dew day and choosed to stay here.

Viscount personally told him that both I and Herman made whistle and other things to help village. Bullroarer has become quite often heard thing here. In the past people used horses or smoke signals to get information quickly. Fortunately both take lots of time or is difficult to interpret. Now I and Herman can communicate quickly between two points quickly and reliably.

We have tried to teach others but we both are definitely the best in the village. Mainly because we have done this now about three years.

Of course all the people in the village has learned most important messages. For examble SOS-signal, work day is over and everyone come to in front of the church. Church is now the center in the village. All big meetings happen here.

There has been two times when all villages have meet in the front of the church in this three years. The first was when one of the children was lost in the forest and the second was when forest fire started.

Fortunately currentry I´m experience the third time. The king August Scorpioheart is coming in the village and everyone has to show respect and bow down in front of him in the village.

August has stayed here once when he was prince. It was before when current viscount ruled. It was normal hunting trip without any extra things happening around.

His most memorable thing was swampskiing. He continnued even after he became the king. It has even became countries national sport and most likely is here to stay.

There hasn´t been any competicions here. Even though most of countries swamp are from here. The most popular swamp is close to capital. Reason for it is it´s large and wide sizes.

Swamp here are keep untouched for keeping them as they are. Even when king is loved by the people. He also keep environment and nature save.

Reason why king´s coming here was known so late was because of bad information travel between two places. Knowledge was sent in time but taking one letter from capital to here takes much time since not many people come here personally.

Information is important here since there is some people working with information. Such as ungle George. He works mainly with information that affect prizes with tar and other produchs which are sold outside the village.

Main importance is to keep prizes right so salary stay good with all personnels. George is one of the few how use knowledge learned from school times. He understand optimal prize is constandly changing as time passes. He has to always keep an eye on demand.

The king and the prince haven´t seen each other for three years. They have send letters so people are well aware of thing has changed for how princes and princesses can get hold of the crown. Everyone knows that second prince is currently the first in line to crown currentry in the village.

Because of that this place is the best place to stay for now. Since this place is in the border. No one can take their forces to attack here. If that happens war might start with all three countries and first one to move is most likely to loss first.

Although there has been some movement in the border. Last winter one guard was chased by soldiers from different country. He enen dropped into the ice and then soldiers gave up on him. Fortunately soon his friend arrived and carried him into warehouse. It was build into the ground. Since his body temperature was droping they started fire in it. They carried rock and build chimney. With that they could quickly prepare warm place which saved the guard.

After that I suggested building them places which are close to rivers or leaks. The most important reason for me was a word ”sauna” which came to me right after I saw the places.

It seems like there is something happening in the Saisagus. The most likely reason is survey or hunting trip. There has always been many people come looking in here, but this time something big like this has happened for quite some time.

Anyway the king seemm to be living in viscount house for now. I and Herman can play most likely more than usually since he would stay with us.

Fortunately we saw something that we have never saw before our lives in the next day.
