That incident was about a month ago and it's been a struggle. As an pigman I have an overall vegan diet. Occasionally I have some cheese but it's not an oft occurrence. But humans need meat to survive and this girl especially needs meat and dairy to grow. I tried to take her to a village and leave her with her own kind (disguised of course) but she clung to me and refused to leave. That being said she hasn't spoken much to me or anyone since her mother died. Maybe she's sticking around to kill me when she gets older. So instead I used my little money to buy a plot of land. It came cheap as the house on the plot was said to be haunted. It was cheap enough that I was able to buy a cow and two chickens. "This will be our home from now on. I'm sorry I can't give you more but since we're far from town I won't have to wear my cloak all the time." I received no response as the girl simply walked in and then ran back out terrified. "G-G-Ghost" she said hiding behind me. I went in with my club to sort out the situation. "Why hello" said a feminine voice from above. I looked up to see a Ghost woman floating above me. "The name's Julia and you are?" "Chris. Chirs B. Porkison. And this is my child- well not my child but I saved her from the hero." I tripped over my words trying to explain the situation. Julia seemed receptive. She flew down towards the girl "what's your name sweetie?" "L-Lily" "Well that's just a beautiful name. " she flew back up to me "let me guess you've never raised a kid before." "I'm hopelessly confused on what to do not to mention she needs a mother." "Well how a this then" she shot up almost as if she had a candle above her head "you and me can work together to raise her. With this land I'm sure you intended to farm and provide for her and I will give her the feminine figure she needs. In exchange you let me stay here. Deal?" And with a shake of her hand I made the best agreement of my life. Lily seemed so much more happy around Julia and Julia Lily. This land was also perfect for all different kinds of crops. I started planting wheat corn and grapes. It was good first year. While not officially recognized by anyone but us, Me and Julia got married. She insisted that you can't have a kid without being married. I wasn't complaining. She was really kind and pretty. My only worry is Lily. While she's learning how to clean and cook she doesn't have any formal education. But the closest schools is a few miles away. I'll need some time to think.
