Have you ever walked outside at night? When it's so dark and you can't see a thing at first? I often do that and I'm never afraid. Because I know that after a while my eyes will adjust to the dark and I will be able to make things stand out. I'm alw...

Mom and dad were happy when I asked them if I could go away for a weekend with my friends. I knew they were worried about me. I think I need to talk to them after the weekend. I have too many questions for them. I can't wait any longer, I want to know more about my real parents. But after the weekend.
Tuesday after school Tristan and his mother would pick me up in a rented car. She would drop us off at the harbor. Phoebe and Jupiter were coming with us too. Jupiter was so excited for this trip, she only talked about this ever since Lucian invited us. It was the first time that I would visit another territory and I must admit that I was excited too, but I was hiding it better than Jupiter. I was making my suitcase when I found in the back of my closet the map of the new world that I had made with Mrs. Van Loock in Middle school. It's thanks to her that I started reading more about how the world was before the change. I was blown away when I went with her through the maps from before, and how much the world had changed.
Now all land is one, except for the island where King Isaac lives on, he had named it 'Issoire' after he became King. His oldest brother George named his territory Gallego, that's where we live. Our borders with Vandronia to the north are a natural one, it is a remnant of the amazon river and its forest. Today we call it the Silvamagna forest and river. In the south we share our border with Sakaris. All the way up in the North we have Kongary and Northwest Eldrands. Compared with how the world was 300 years ago they assume that Gallego is what South America once was.

I had asked Mrs. Van Loock if there were still rogues out there but she didn't know, but it must be, surely everyone who fought against the brothers must have fled somewhere when the peace agreement was signed. A part of them surrendered but I can't believe that everyone is pleased with how six brothers decide everything, even with their council chosen by the people. Not all of them changed their minds about who should rule the world. Who else has killed prince Lorcan?
The others were already waiting for us at the harbor. Phoebe and Jupiter walked to the others while Tristan said goodbye to his mother. I stood a bit away from them watching all the activity in the harbor. I had never been here before and was impressed by all the sounds and smells. That it was busy here wasn't a surprise since now a days trade was by land or by water.
