The Secret Life of Arithnama

Introduction

In a land, long ago, so long a go, no one remembers that it ever was here. Or was it? It wasn't here, and yet, it was. The land was called Armingad. In that land, there was a bush of which the people were not allowed to eat the berries, except on the night of the harvest moon every three years. Now, there was a certain little girl named Ahrith.  She was born in the Farinaha lineage. She was awaiting the day she would be a three sylable.  She had decided to be named Ahrithna. She wasn't supposed to do this, but, she and her mother agreed that she could do this in secret and tell her mom what she wanted to be named. This is my story.
