• The wind blew on my face as my shoulder-length hair fell back, I touched the knife on my side and sighed. I looked at the knife, the sharp edge and intricate design, unknown words carved on the steel. Suddenly arms grabbed onto my shoulders.
    "IGGY!"
    "waaah!" I cried and looked behind me to find my childhood friend, Fen laughing.
    "I told you to stop calling me that! were not kids anymore" I shouted at him waving my hand in front of his face.
    "Aww, c'mon arent we friends?" he said grinning
    "My name is Ignath!" I said, ignoring his comment.
    He sighed and looked at the view, the ocean sparkled the color of deep blue, faint sounds of the waves crashing through rocks could be heard.
    "What are you going to do now?" He asked.
    "I'm going to look for her" I said.
    "You're...going to look for her" He said.
    "Yeah" I said lost in thought. Suddenly Fen grabbed onto my arm and said.
    "I'm coming with you" He said
    "Why?" I asked slightly taken aback. He let go of my arm and turned towards the sea and sighed.
    "Without you around its gonna be boring around the village" He said lifting his arms and clasping his hands behind his head.
    "Oh so I serve as entertaining purposes for you?" I asked irritatingly.
    "Of course, remember the time when you fell off the tree when you tried to get that apple? In the end I ended up getting it for you" Fen said amusingly.
    "Huh, yea right, you didnt give it to me, you ate it then got cocky" I said more irritated at the memory.
    "That! Is also the reason why you started to learn how to fight" Fen said.
    "No, thats not it, I started to learn a year after that" I said.
    "whats wrong with you? dont you remember?" I continued.
    He smirked and said "Course, you still haven't told me the reason why you started training"
    "I'll tell you when I feel like it" Ending our little banter.
    "Lets meet each other at the top of that hill" I said pointing at the hill behind us.
    Fen nodded and went off, I went home and started to gather all the necessities, I took with me a few apples and then put on my traveling cloak I looked at the big cage in my bedroom and chuckled, "Were going to find Krystel!" I said to the beautiful bird, his name was Kyut we call him Q though, my sister named him, I opened his cage, he was beautiful, white as snow with two long tail feathers and some white with blue feathers crowning on his head the feathers on his head was also standing, I mused, I took him with me then went off to meet Fen who was already at the top, he grinned at me, 'hes so excited' I said slightly exasperated. And then we went off

    Journal entry,

    Looking back, who would have thought Fen and me would go on this ridiculous journey. Where we would only go as far as the forest beside our village, Hah! I remember the birds that started to land beside me some even landed on me! especially the one who sat on my head, then Fen found me and shooed the birds, three started to attack him,he left screaming while covering his face, the bird on my head left too, but not before she left an egg, that egg cracked to two then Kyut was born, I raised him, I'm also very proud of him, such an intelligent bird, oh I got to go now, Q is practically attacking me, a sign that hes hungry, -Ignath
