Now, the darkness is swallowing my strength. My legs dropped numb onto the hard muddy ground, the pads of my feet is cracked and bleeding furiously. It must've been infected already... My eye lids are as heavy as stone... No... I'm...

  Yie shuffled herself back to the small empty bed room Noku's in, a small bowl of brown liquid held in her paws, hot steam rise from the bowl and fluttered behind Yie as she walk past the thin hallway. Noku was resting in the cranky wooden bed, his ear shot up as the sound of the creaking floor came closer, he grunted, then pulled himself up and sat in the bed, ready for another argument with the female wolf. Yie entered the room, a soft smile appeared on her face as she placed the bowl onto the drawer beside the bed, Noku took a quick look at the steamy brown slimy liquid in the bowl and frown at Yie :" What is that thing? I suppose it's for me?" The she wolf grinned in reply :" It's medicine for your slide out broken bone and of course as I said its for you." Noku opened his mouth to protest but was snapped by Yie again, before he can say a word " You better drink it, it's made out of very rare herbs. If you make me dump that, your gonna be sorry." Her face is pulled down again from the smile, her grey eyes glared at him as if he was a silly child that does not know a thing. Noku held back a growl that rumbled in his throat, and stretched his paws for the bowl of medicine and gobbled it down as fast as possible, since he don't want any taste of it to touch his tongue.  Yie watched him, she pushed back of a small swirl of surprise that howled in her mind and took the bowl away to wash. She twisted the handle open, water splashed out of the faucet and flow down the sink, " No one trusted me for my medicine..." She mumbled quietly, a small warm smile appeared as she put the bowl away into the shelfs above. Her paw reached for the pot beside her and started humming a soft tune that sounds like the songs of the birds, dancing around the room step by step silently as she cleaned up the rest of the mess.

  Noku snuggled himself into the blankets and huffed a puff of warm air into the room, he watched as the white fluff of air died into the area around it and disappeared away with the cold wind blowing from a crack at the window beside the bed. He slowly felt the warmth surrounding him, *is it because of her medicine?* he thought, a tingle of pleasure tickled his heart, but shook it away. He closed his eyes, and yawned as the stress drowned him into sleep. Yie entered just in time to watch the male wolf curl into a ball on her mattress, she smiled and padded away towards the small round table beside the sink, the moon rises high up on the sky and hanged there like a silver plate. Yie pushed the pillows around the table together, and made out a soft triangle for her to sleep in the night, she pulled off her ragged clothes and pulled out a new dress from the large drawer at the left corner and pulled it onto her body. Then she toke out a rolled up blanket and lay down onto the pillows and slept with the blanket on top of her.

To be continued...

Which the name is created for every citizen to be feared and respectful of, the creation of Sta is followed by a short story that's first told by a retired soldier. He saids that Sta was at first a auman like all the rest of them, but after waves and waves of adventure and bravery, Sta has gone to the tallest point of all aumanity that he turned into a god that's now looking after all of them. But of course, that's just a fairy tale.
