Precarious

Inclusion

                                     Sun rises at the village of Hainnes. With a gentle touch of the bright orange, trees mixed with burnt and despair, trampled flowers soaring up during the dawn with its new buds and the wind ceased to circle the village destructively.

The fires began to extinguish itself, cracks of wood, scraps of gravel, rocks, some metal and tin were scattered outside the houses of the village. Phoenix dancing, dragons swimming, humans sowing the fields.

And finally order was restored as the birds chirped again in the forest.

"They say that wars destroy countless of lives but, even so...
Death always gives birth to joy."

A young girl named, Kisishtria along with her family and the people of the village possesses the distinct features of a rich black hair, black colored eyes, with a skin as tan as the rich brown soil, and bodies as energetic as playful dolphins.

They never relied on the city which is miles away from their village. People believed in their own abilities, nourished and perfected them in a way that they found a way of life even without the help of technology.

Kisishtria's POV

15 years ago...after the war

Pwuck pwushh!
The window creaked open as I push it and saw the beautiful sun.

"Ahh hahahah! " 

"The bright sun, I always loved!"

"I almost cried because I was left here by mom and dad in order to gather mom's supplies for the other villagers.
And yet finally the storms and the war has calmed for now!"

"Dad! Dad! Look! The sun is up again a-after such a long time!"
I excitedly said to dad while I was pointing to the sun.

Her eyes were filled with joy and hope while looking outside.

"Oh yes, you're right my dear kisishtria you're such a lovely girl!"
my dad said, as I heard him breathe a sigh of relief and his body stood still and relaxed.

So I ran down the stairs excitedly.

"Kisishtria wait for me, let me have a look outside, it might not be safe yet."
Father warned.

Gario quickly goes down the stairs to catch up to kisishtria.

I hastily opened the door and gazed outside.

Gario then hurriedly followed his daughter as he was still worried to go outside.

"Dad, there's a kid hanging in the bucket near the well."
I said to him and then I innocently gazed at father's eyes, so that I can persuade him to allow me to take care of the cute young babe.

Father then scratches his head.

"Alright, we will take a look at the baby." Father replied as he cannot resist me.

"Hehehehe.
I knew it dad really loves me."
I whispered to myself and I grabbed father's hands to guide him with me to the baby I found.

Gario noticed a pendant in the child's neck with a family name in it. The name engraved in it is ishiki. He paused for a moment and thought about the name ishiki which he heard from somewhere far from their village.
