Lana’s Journeys:
The Land of Blue Sun
~chapter 1~
Lana went to her house and packed her things as she cried. ”My family, they are gone…and Master …is gone…the only person who cared
for me is Gone” Lana takes out the dagger that her Master had given her.
She looked at the dagger and her named inscribed on it and a tear runs
down her cheek. Lana puts away the dagger and continues to pack. She
packs a tarp, her bow and arrows, daggers, a sword, her wooden flute, a
family portrait, and a journal. Lana puts everything in a bag, then she puts
on her necklace that Master gave to her. She walks out of her room and
looks at her family dead on the floor and she says “My dear family, I know
you were ashamed of me, but I loved you all so very much.” she wipes a
tear off her cheek with her faded pink sleeve and starts to walk out the
door. “Off to start a new life…” she sighs. Lana begins her journey as she
walks out the door with all of her things with her she begins to walk down
the roads of The Land of Two Moons as she looks at all of her dead allies
from the battle. Lana starts to enter a forest as she walks north. As she
walks through the forest the darkness nears and she looks up to see a full
moon rising in the sky. Lana was already deep in the forest and it was dark
she looked around and tried to hear if any one was near. Lana heard a
continuous thud against the ground and her long, pointed ears twitched
from hearing the loud noise, then she heard a loud snort Identifying the
sound to be coming from a large animal. It was very cold in the night at
the Northern Forest and she hadn’t brought anything along so she
grabbed her bow and arrow and swiftly ran to the sound of the animal.
Lana hid behind the tree and observed the animal from afar. It was large
and fury and the meat looked good to eat. Lana then took out her bow
and an arrow and precisely aimed at the large animal grazing on the
grass. Lana had her good eye open and one eye closed then she shot
her arrow at the animal and it falls over making a loud noise and some
birds fly out of the trees nearby. Though the animal was three times Lana’s
size she was still able to carry the large animal in her tiny arms. Lana
carried the animal to a small clearing in the Northern Forest where she put
the animal on the ground and she sat in front of it. Lana pulled out a knife
from her bag and started to skin the animal taking off its fur, then she
decapitated the animal and laid it down on a group of leaves. Lana then
got up and took nine large stones and placed them in a circle then put
some sticks in the middle. Lana touched her necklace and formed a small
flame on the tip of her index finger and she lights one of the sticks near
the bottom. As the fire on her finger goes out she gets up while a flame
forms on the sticks then she finds three large sticks and sets them up over
the fire she ties the large, headless, animal’s hooves together onto the
stick and cooks the meat over the fire. As it cooks Lana takes out the tarp
from her bag and gets five large sticks and she forms a tent then she puts
all her belongings including the animal’s fur in the tent. Lana watches as
the meat of the animal cooks in the fire. Lana takes out her daggers and
sharpens them one by one with a rock. The first one she
sharpened broke the rock so she had to get more than one. As she
finished sharpening her last dagger the meat was ready and she got up
and picked up the hot meat and put it on a big leaf and starts to eat it.
The moon has risen all the way up in the sky and Lana looks up at it. Lana
sighs “Wow the moon looks so beautiful tonight.” She looks back down
and eats a little more of the meat then she wraps it up and puts it in her
tent to eat the rest later. “I guess I better get some rest,” Lana said. She
then put out the animal fur and laid down on it then she got out her
journal and began to write a poem about her day on the wrinkly
piece of paper :
