We finally reached our destination.
There was a small shack inside a tree. Another formless opened the door. His name is burning ash. He told me the female's name too which is snow. He has been taking care of her all these years. He explained how he found her when she was little. Her parents were dead and her toung had been cut out. She was wandering in the snow running from wolves when he found her in the snow. She had earned her form recently since she had no forms. Her parents would have given her forms. So she is named snow since there was no adjective said before.
It's a rather sad story that reminds me of my own. I was trying to carry a pack of food across a bridge and was struggling. I tried to tell my dad I was trying and that was when he was suddenly shot with an enchanted arrow and fell to the ground. Out of fear I found my form and am now called trying bridge.
I then ran home to my mother but they found us. I was only able to get a human and cat form before they got her and I had to make my escape. Their last words to me were live. Seems like all I've been doing is surviving till now.
They say our names foreshadow our future but what could mine possibly mean.
I actually didn't learn a whole lot from my parents about my species. However burning ash has been making a book containing all information about us. It is very helpful with lots of interesting stuff. Even things like formbeasts and formseeds.
Formbeast is monster of sorts every formless has within them that is unique to them.
And a formseed is what is left when a formless dies. I never got my parent's formseeds. They were tortured and killed and interrogated to find the others. As far as I knew I was all that was left of my race.
Ash says we need to head for karthan to be safe from the nether. It is the only place not nether occupied.
I guess we leave tommorrow. I hope we can make it there.
