Contemplating Carefully

"But on the other hand, one of the many problems with this place was that the river water, which was actually supposed to be the only water source around here in this region, that is in fact poisonous.

And also, I am currently residing among the people who are most likely being reared like the cattle within these five villages of this Oma Hills Region, by the mercy of those so called protectors of this region, who are actually more like the butchers than any kind of Gate Keepers."

"Within the worst of the circumstances, it is still acceptable but that is only when the logical part of this situation is considered."

"If I consider the weird part, then there is still such an old legend like the 'Old Gate' with dangerous wild beasts on the other side which sound a lot like some kind of monsters coming straight out of a nightmare, instead of just some dangerous wild animals."

"And the Gate Keepers who are actually powerful enough to kill all of those men in a village but still could do nothing about those so called monsters that were present beyond the Old Gate."

"And who in the world would believe that there is some kind of temple where the virgin girls would be taken in order to become the oracles and that too in a place that is uninhabitable for any normal human being."

"Let's not even talk about this folk poem from the legends of the Soma Village 'Red Heavens'. That had already crossed the realm of natural, diving straight into the domain of the untouched supernatural."

All these thoughts were constantly striking inside the June's forehead. June took a few long breaths and looked at the little Tinum who was lying totally relaxed on his left shoulder with a little envy.

"I wish I could be as chilled as you are looking right now friend."

After a minute when he had calmed down a little, he tried to look at his situation on this new planet with a new and different outlook.

"But at least one thing is certain, which is that most of the natural laws and the fundamental working principles that govern the physical world of this planet is actually very similar to my own planet Earth."

"Although I could not accurately measure the time in this place but looking at the movement of the sun, the length of the day time as well as the night time are almost similar to the time on Earth, so I can guess that considering the rotation speed of this planet, the orbit around its sun would also lead to there being four seasons similar to earth, present here as well."

"At least the fire is easily able to burn here on this planet, that means the oxygen levels in the atmosphere are also sufficient for combustion and let's not forget breathing."

June contemplated the whole situation while adding another piece of firewood into the fire that was burning right in front of his eyes.

Just as he was putting the piece of dried wood into the fire, he suddenly stopped for a moment and his eyes directly fixed at the surface of the wood on which the fire was burning.

After noticing for a while, he picked out one of the blocks of wood that was already half burnt and was still burning from the one end and carefully held it from its another end while taking a close look at it.

While he was carefully looking at the burning piece of wood, June carefully held it from the unburnt end and then closed his eyes and activated his amplified sense of "SIGHT" and turned his vision in the direction of the burning piece of wood that was being held in his hand.

Suddenly the question that he had been waiting to ask himself all day suddenly popped up automatically within his head.

What is 'Sight'?

It is just a simple ability developed by our physical body through evolution in order to detect 'Light'. But then the question comes, 'What is Light?'.

In very layman terms, light is just another form of energy similar to heat, electricity, sound etc.

But when we come to the specific terms, 'light' is originally that form of energy which can only be detected specifically by our eyes. In other words, it can also be read as, 'there is light in this world because there are eyes present in a human body'.

If there were no eyes in the physical body of the human beings, then within this world there would also be no light present.
