The sun has risen across the horizon shining its radiant lights and illuminating surrounding towns, cities, rivers, mountains and forests. With light darkness surged into depth of the world leaving world full of hope.
The one particular town was majestic with all the lighting and life going on in it.
Town consisted of houses mostly 1 or 2 stories high but, toward the center storeys gradually increased with its decor and other things such as market and so on became better looking and well guarded. Around 600 houses were constructed from mainly brick, stone and carved wood. The roof was made of slate and tile. The balcony, fences and other detailed places used cast iron and wrought iron for construction.
Town's outer settlement houses looked poorly constructed with lesser quality materials and fundaments. Surroundings weren't better either at the Southern area. There was garbages, waste and homeless people roaming in streets. The path in this side of town led to wide range of mountains. Further from town at Northern side of it the large area could be seen covered in crops and trees. Those were farms which provided vegetables and fruits to the town. In Eastern side of town dense and dark forest was located with wild animals roaming and attacking at town to get some food, Thus this side of town has built fences and walls to protect from attacks of wild animals. At the Western part a wide plains could be seen with long path stretching to horizon connecting town with outside world and assisting town in trading. In plains stocks roamed around and eating grass, while enormous dogs equal to size of wolf guided the stock to the right directions. Livestock provided town with meat and other products like milk and so on.
It was town of Enilotrus. It's location was quite comfortable and with wide range of terrain and land to offer enough resources for prosperity of town. Plains provided land for farming while forest provided enough building materials. This was just perfect.
In center of town large fountain was located near central square filled with merchants who desired wealth and sold good to the people. Central square was crowded place and it had 4 path leading to it from East, West, North and South parts of town.
At North Western side of central square most of the merchants and magazines were build attracting locals. Merchants often visited Enilotrus coming from North then going into West. Because Enilotrus was located at one of the Great Sword Trading Path. Great Sword Trading Path was one of the 4 Great Trading Paths. It started from Mountain range of Hinderson then go on through montains and towns to the Capital of Ashoflet Kingdom after which it went to Mountain range of Qertilon. Mountains were rich on materials for sword and other weapon crafting thus were starting point for merchants who bought them at cheap price at mountains and sold it in the Capital and some towns in the way.
At North Eastern part of central square the church was located. Church was one of the important aspects of world. Church controlled not only power but royalty too. Their influence stretched even to the king. The Church was build in old style with two massive towers being connecter by wide and tall hall. One of the towers was yellowish white while other was bluish black. The symbol of moon and sun was placed on towers with their respective colors. Outside people with white and black robes entered and exited building with tranquil expression on their faces. They were belivers. However one of them was not only beliver but also priest of this church. He wore white robe with yellow golden outlining cloth and at his chest a amulet resembling sun was hanging, in his hands a book decorated with gold was being held. His expression was peaceful, tranquil and quite. While he was entering people made their ways bowing to show their sinsarity and respect.
At South Western part a grand academy was build. It stood out with it's decarations and fences blocking anyone from entering and large gate which was guarded with several guards wearing steel armour and holding spear and swords in their hands. The academy was one of the kind in the town. It had significant value, because it trained future guardians and representatives of town. Nurturing young people to fight from start. Inside academy huge 5 storey building was standing with windows and doors located in right places. At the back of this building the field consisting of 6 smaller fields was located. Two was for running and exercising to build up strength, speed and stamina. Another two was for battles and practice of fighting techniques. Last two were for special occasions. At them competitions and shows would be shown and talented younglings of town would compete while crowd would sit and enjoy battles at constructed benches at the side of arena.
At the South Eastern side a mansion stood. It was mansion of town leader. Mansion had not only fences as defence but also elite guard who would patrool around the area while maidens were doing chores. All of it funstioned in harmony. The mansion itself was made of wood rocks and merids. All of them complimented each other very well creating sight to behold. Inside maidens moved cleaning and taking care of place. In the kitchen cooks cocked food with joy and love. At one of the rooms a young girl was sitting at the chair with book in her hands. She was in bedroom. Infront of her a table filled with various books papers and things stood, while she was imerrsed into study. At another room an old man around 50 years was filling papers. Taking look at back where window was located old man sighted as he got back to his dest and papers continuing his job.
The town was vast and the further the building was from central square the poorer and worse socio-economic background people lived.
At one of the 3 storey building located near the central square. The boy was awoken by the rising sun. The sun was at dawn crawling out slowly, while it's golden light stretched across surroundings. The boy was quite handsome. His black hair, brown eyes and athletic body complimented each other making him more and more handsome.
As he woke up he stretched his arms and tightened his back. After it he got up from bed half dizzy. He slowly walked to the door and opened it revealing bathroom.
Top of bathroom was made of wood and towards bottom it changed into stone and bit of concrete like material. Near entrance the bucket of water was placed with towel at wall. In the far corner the banya was placed with rocks on top. Around it were seats with some dried leaves of oak tree on it.
The boy after entering started to take off clothes. As he did it his athletic body was shown with quite refined muscles. His posture was great and one could clearly see each muscle on his body.
He then took the bucket of water in his hand and going further from the enterance poured it over his body washing away sweat and bad smell mostly. Soaked in water his hair fell down. With assault of cold water his muscles tensed up and his breathing increased. Time passed and boy got into enterance again now he dried himself up with towel and after he jumped because of excitement.
Soon after he got out of bathroom fresh and energized ready for new day. 'Finally it is that day!' exitedly he thought to himself while going down stairs. In first floor kitchen living room and library was located with corridors connecting them. The scent of freshly baked pie was roaming in first floor attracting the boy stronger than anything around him. When he entered kitchen firstly his eyes fell on elderly women.
Woman had wrinkled face but in that face a trace of warmth and kindness could be seen. Her red eyes were as deep as depth of sea and the wisdom of several decades could be seen in the surface of that sea. Her hair was already white with few black ones left showing her old age. Her body was old and now looked vulnerable like she had only 5 years before her death. When she finally noticed young boy she gave him a soft smile and spoke "Loneil. You must be really excited. Today is special day for you." with slight chuckle she contiuned "Everyone must be cheering you up. Anyways, You have to stay healthy. So, eat up."
"Thank you Mom! Yea everyone cheered me up yesterday." after those words Loneil sat at seat and prepared for his meal.
With smile old woman got pie and placed at the table. After she got plate for Loneil and with knife cut the pie and placed piece on plate. Then she placed it right after Loneil.
Looking at pie Loneil swallowed his saliva and thanked old woman before starting eating the pie.
The pie was delicious. The apple and sugar in it gave it sweet taste. Loneil tasting it got into 7th sky and devoured it within seconds.
Soon his plate was crystal clear and pie was only half of it's size.
Loneil on the other hand was full and happy. His expression was calm. His mom like Loneil was calm and happy on how tasty her cooking was that Loneil ate half of it.
Loneil got up from his seat and said "Thanks, Mom. Apple pie was so delicious. I couldn't hold back. I will go to my room and get ready." then he got up to his room. In his back his mom said "Do not forget anything. Ok?"
Hearing it Loneil sighted and answered "Ok."
In his room he changed his clothes into much better ones. He now wore elegant suit with white gloves in his hands and jacket like red clothes with white lines outlining the clothes hung in his back.
Walking back to entrance he remembered his childhood and his teenage years. His mom was already at entrance waiting for him.
Few seconds passed and Loneil said with wide innocent smile "See you at evening Mom. I will be back as soon as I can."
Looking back at her child mother replied "There is no need to hurry. You can go out with your friends and have fun after. See you soon." while looking if he wore his clothes correctly.
Getting himself ready Loneil while looking if nothing was missing grabbed his sword at enterance of home and got out to outside. Before closing door he shouted "Wish me luck on Awakening ceremony!"
