Chilly sorrowful wind touches my face, As I am running for my life in these gloomy dead woods. I have no particular direction but gut feeling only tells me to run and save my pitiful small life.
It has been three days since I escaped and the sun has never shown, I bled and bled wondering how I am still alive, metal thorns stuck on my muddy skin a heavy gruesome horizontal wound in my stomach feeling like my guts are about to fall to gravity, shivering and anxious thinking once I stop it is all over. How did I end up to this, It was just yesterday my life was happy and livid sunny and vivid, but now only darkness and fear, here I am despairing and losing hope every second that passes by.
Like a rotten log
half buried in the ground -
my life, which
has not flowered, comes
to this sad end.
Prologue:
Stolen novel; please report.
I am Kara Nashinya, turning 17 this year in the month of harvest moon. I live is Hortia planet one of the most prosperous, green, bountiful and peaceful planet in Star system of Alnetak. I am the only child of Elder Taknan Nashinya one of the Leader of Giving faction. We live a simple life here away from Empires zone of Influences, we do not have a currency system that many said to be one of the reasons why humans gets corrupted.Our leaders are smart enough to turn down all the things or the people that might eventually leave us suffering in the future.
Enough about that, today I am participating in mountain trail hunt, I really wanted the priced new bow for hunting, It is made of Alkanium, the pride metal of our homeworld, legends said that It was used by our ancients elders they used it against the loyalists of Empires near our planet borders, eventually liberated ourselves from their influences, the most fascinating is that if you''re strong enough you could shot down a starship with one arrow, it may sound silly but legends are legends for a reason.
After a long walk Kara finally saw the place where the trail hunt is going to take place. The mountain of Ryish the most significant place for people of Horintians, it is exclaimed as the sacred ground of Horin, it is the tallest mountain in the whole planet it nearly reached the edge of atmosphere, mists of clouds covering half of the mountain top while the lower half of it is spotless pleasant green.
As Kara nears the mountain, Kara could feel the cozy feeling of her home, the feeling of being willingly hugged by the spirit of motherworld, a feeling of peace like breathing harmony itself from the bottom of her lungs.
The gentle and comfortingawareness of her own heartbeat made her smile and she is more motivated more than ever to hike to the place she wanted to be.
