Chapter 1

I look around at my surroundings, my home, my tribe. Its where I've lived all my life and just now I'm old enough to wander beyond my comfort zone. My whole tribe has been telling me not to go to stay with them and help my mother lead. I'm not against that idea but I'm starting to get a bit bored of staying in one place and being told to do things a certain way.
Taking a deep breath and stealing one last glance of my tribe I wander off into the forest beyond the border that we would usually be allowed past. My mother wasn't always this strict with our borders but ever since my father and younger sister went missing due to unknown circumstances, she decided to not take the risk and had forbidden anyone over a certain age to be able to cross it. Today was my birthday and I was going to try and find some cool things to possibly take home or even some new foods instead of just the current ones we have. That was the goal. It was the plan.

I take a small break my legs aching from walking for so long already..its been around 2 and a half hours since i left and i wouldn't be surprised if my mother had found out that i crossed the border and left. I was old enough to finally go though and i could use that as an excuse if my tribe guards find me. I take my crown off gently and hide it into my bag, i then adjust the hood and cape i have so it's covering my face and part of my body or at least my clothing. If i do end up wandering into one of the supposed kingdoms then i don't want them to think im some enemy of theirs. I take a few deep breaths and drink some of the berry juice that i had packed with me. I have no regrets of having it with me anymore.
What felt like 3 hours only was around 1 hour, when i got to a grand wall. I stand near the tree line looking up at the wall and trying to find out how i can either get around this or inside if this is one of those kingdoms.
I shake my head getting out of my small trans that i was in and look to the my right, either im going insane or there's a small entryway someone had created. I quickly speed walk whilst staying inside the tree line. After about a minute of speed walking i get there i was definitely big  enough for me to fit through. Oh god..there spiders.!  I hate spiders so bloody much, and after about 5 minutes of arguing with my self I quickly make my way inside making sure to not bump into any of the spiders.
After all of that I stand up after dusting myself off. I look around confused, i mentally facepalm myself noticing that im in an ally way and exit it only to be brought by loads of talking and the bright glow of the sun. I block it out with my hand and look around,whoa there were a lot of people here. I walk around whilst still blocking the sun out of my view,deciding to be smart i walk off go a more desolate area only to spot, who im guessing is a guard training one of their newer younger guards. I then also spot two others standing there they were chatting so i won't disrupt them but i gotta admit i was a bit lost at this point.
As I watch the two guards dueling and training, i could have sworn I saw the two pointing to make and talking about me. Getting a bit nervous I move the grip I have on my bag. Only to spot one of them walking towards me a few minutes later.I hide my hands and any of my visible skin before turning to face them, noticing that the other is walking towards me as well now, my cheeks turning a soft pinkish red from nervousness. Once they got into ear shot one of them decided to speak up.
"I'm sorry if i've scared you in anyway but me and my friend over here have spotted you observing and watching as our friend and his father trains. I'm Indonesia this is Philippines. You may call me indo for short."
"Oh. Well in that case no worries I'm (your name) you may just call me (your nick name). But apologies if I seem a bit off but I'm kind of lost at the moment. I just decided to watch so I can have a small break"
"Oh! That's actually common here, for people to get lost in these walls! And sorry I'm Philippines, Philip or Phil for short"
I bow my head down slightly showing that I understand but also just out of respect.
"I couldn't help but also notice your clothing, its nothing like our kingdoms and i'm quite curious so if I may ask where are you exactly from?"
"Oh...I can't say where I live exactly but I can say that I live where the lost and forgotten souls lay."
I give a small smile and giggle softly as I glance at the others confused and puzzled faces.
"Now its my turn to apologize. I unfortunately can't say where I live or else my mother will probably kill me if I let out my tribes location.." I stated. It was true I would be in a lot of trouble if I were to just give away my tribes location to someone I just met..
"Fair enough. If my parents found out I had told some stranger I just met whee this kingdom was then I would be in a world of trouble as well" I nodded along giggling as well he did chuckle softly as well.
"Can you tell us what your tribe is called at least?" Asked Philip looking very curious to the name. I hesitated. I wouldn't be telling where my tribe is technically eventually I hesitantly nodded yes. He looked very exited and happy seeing me nod yes.
"My tribe is called 'the lost and forgotten' "
It wasn't that my tribe was evil is any sense but it was just that we were rare to come across and one way someone could tell that one was an official member of the tribe was through looking for a special tattoo on their back. The tribe leader and their family would have a special tattoo tattooed on their arm showing the tribe that they should be respected and not mistaken for a commoner. looking up at the two in front of me. They seemed to have very surprised faces.
"Wait as in the very rare tribe that uses special markings and tattoos?" I
Philip asked a big and excited smile making its way onto his face. I sighed and nodded yes. Because it was true...

I'll just leave it as a cliff hanger as I'm currently on my way home from college. I have motion sickness so I'm bound to throw up one was or another whether I'm out of the coach or not.
