The Journey Began
As soon as they reached the temple's gate, Tarou start shouting his brother's name, and then all the monsters did the same.
- AARON...AARON'S...AARON'S
At that moment, He put Aaron on his shoulders and headed toward their home.
The monsters kept following them while looking astonished. Aaron could read their faces easily. He, himself, didn't have much hope. For a moment, he thought that everything was over for him. If it wasn't for his brother's interference. He could be walking all alone while being ashamed, instead of that.
He looked at his brother and asked him:
- No one has hope for me, and they were expecting my failure. Why did you insist on doing it again? How did you guess that I have power?
-I saw it yesterday, in my dreams, you were having great power. That's how I became sure that you have much more than you are showing.
-Thank you for believing in me. If it wasn't for you, I would be banished by now.
- I will never let such a thing happen to you...
As soon as they arrived at their house, the celebration began. The monsters gathered and gave a big show using their power. It was like a dance, but it contains water, earth, and wind.
- After you succeed in your mission, you will be able to control one element like them.
- Yeah, I'm excited to reach that level.
Tarou tried not to show his brother how much worried he was. They will send him to a strange and different world without having any power to protect himself.
- Tarou, can you tell me about the human world?
- Well, it is not as bad as everyone described. I'm sure that you will enjoy your trip as I did...
- I don't think so. Humans are cunning creatures. I hope I finish my mission as soon as possible and go back to the land.
Aaron and his family spent the night celebrating.
In the morning he picked up his belongings and said goodbye to them.
- Be careful, little brother. I hope you will return with victory, you can do it.
- Take good care of yourself, my son, it won't be easy.
- Wait for me. I promise that I will make you proud of me.
Aaron got out of his house and waved for the last time, then he headed off to his destination.
He stood up for a moment on the outskirts of his village to take a final look. He will leave his childhood place and every person he knew for an unknown future.
He took a deep breath, turns around and the journey began.
Aaron arrived at the fence, it was very tall that his eyes can't reach its limits. That wall was what had kept the land safe and hidden from extreme weather and outsiders. He took out a magical pendant and put it on the wall, this pendant was like an identity card, it was his only way to leave the land and come back.
Suddenly a door opened and a freezing breeze came through it.
"wow, the snow is covering everything".
He took out a heavy furry coat that his father gave him, wore it, immediately, and then walked his first steps on the snow.
He reached his hands to the white snow. How can something so beautiful and delicate be deadly?
His brother warned him. The snow is not a great obstacle for someone who has power. In a blink of an eye, any monster can pass through it, but for him, it's going to be much more difficult.
He started walking and walking until the night came, then he took a cave as a shelter and set fire. He must keep walking for 4 days to pass through the snow.
The next day he arrived at a high mountain. As if it was not enough for him to walk on the snow, he must now climb this. He sighs and then started climbing until he arrived at a high cliff, he was very exhausted and at his limit.
"What should I do? keep going or take a little break? The sky has become cloudy, there is a storm on the way."
