Primitive Leadership

Day Fourteen P1

"Wake up!!" Monty was at my house, shaking my bed around, trying to wake me. "There is someone here to see you!"
I opened my eyes and I saw a strong looking black male in front of me
"...Brux..?" I started mumbling with a sleepy voice. "...What are you doing here..?"
"I am here to tell something important about the map I have given you. You might have been wondering about a bunch of stuff, such as the triangle marked spots on the map."
"...Huh?... Oh yeah... those things...."
"Yeah, I have made several markings on the map, these three triangles are for what my people call obelisks, whatever you do, do not go near them. If you do, all your peoples lives will be in danger, if not the whole island."
I yawned really long and then said "okay... was that all..?"
"No it is not." Brux replied. "There is this black place on the map. This place is also a no go zone. Whenever close to this place, wyverns will fly out and chase you."
"Wyverns?!" I was suddenly completely awake. "Let's move out guys! We gotta get ourselves some wyverns!"
"No you do not go there." Brux said in an almost threatening voice. "You will die if you go too close."
I was guessing he didn't mean it so I was still thinking about it. But that thought soon disappeared as I heard Sloth calling me from downstairs.
"Builder! We have visitors!"
"I'm coming!" I replied. I didn't want to because I was still kind of sleepy after hearing that wyverns would kill us all if we went there.
Once outside, I someone I knew, but his name didn't come to mind immediately. A whole lot of people were with him, it looked like a whole tribe.
"Builder, my good friend." I heard from the person that I seemed to know. "How have you been? Don't you remember me? I'm Sabbu."
As soon as I heard his name, I remembered it, the guy that made me start building the village we're in now.
"Sabbu!" I said. "What brings you here with all these people?"
"To be honest Builder... My village has been overrun by bandits and this was the safest place I know."
"I'm glad you didn't go to the other side of the island."
"What's on the other side?"
"...Okay, let's not go there right now. So, what are you looking for right now? Although I think I already know."
Brux who was standing behind me all this time whispered to Kira "He said not right now, didn't he?" Kira nodded back and they both continued watching in silence.
"I'm here to seek refuge until me and my people can move back to our village."
Yeah... I figured... but I pretended like I didn't.
"Okay, I guess that sounds fine. On one condition, Sabbu, you stay here after your village has been completed. We can use someone like you to make top tier saddles."
"What?!" Sabbu said. "I refuse! I'm not leaving my wife and daughter!"
"You have a wife and daughter?"
"Yea I do, what about them?"
Sabbu sounded angry so I tried to cool him down a bit by saying: "Okay, fine, they can stay too."
"Village grows more? Sayla goes hit trees!" Sayla said.
"Did she just sa..." Sabbu tried to begin.
"Don't even think she ever jokes..." I interrupted him with.
Sayla sprinted away to the forest and she disappeared into the darkness of it.
"But coming back onto the point..." Sabbu said. "If my wife and daughter can stay too, I'm fine with it. My apprentice has made enough progress to manage the saddle making on his own in the village when it's rebuilt."
"Then that's a deal." I said. "You can all stay in yurts that we'll make for now, until there are some houses done and you'll be able to sleep there."
Behind the group of visitors to be villagers, in the forest, a bunch of trees suddenly fell down. Sayla came walking back with a bunch of trees on her shoulders and her hands were a bit red.
"Told you she wasn't joking." I whispered to Sabbu who was looking in awe to the way too strong women of her size.
My oversized loin the thylacoleo, which I though of a name for while sleeping, came walking by and Sabbu's group got scared out of their wits as they saw the 2 person big cat walk by.
"Leo!" I said and the thylacoleo suddenly looked a lot more awake and ran towards me, making a gesture that I should pet his head as soon as he reached me.
"T-T-That's some i-i-incredible pet y-y-you have there..." Sabbu stuttered. "I-I-If you like I can make you a nice s-s-saddle for him..." Sabbu still stuttered but less now.
"Yes if that improves anything about how he listens to me, then I'd very much like that. Yesterday he started to run on the wall when I told him to jump down in the middle of the village."
"Oh yeah, that's quite the mistake yeah... don't worry, this saddle will make... Leo... to do what you say more. Oh and that book you're always writing in, you should try to make different ones instead of writing it all in one."
"How did you know about my book?"
Kira came approaching me.
"Everyone does." She said. "You're reading in it every day you're going to bed. Outside. On your porch."
"Well..." I tried finding words to explain but I couldn't find any.
"Where is Sayla by the way? I haven't seen her yet today."
"She's trying to knock out a pterodactyl so yours hid on your roof."
"She'll be gone all day, noted. Anyways, it's a good tip I got from you Sabbu, my book is trying to become full." And so I started a new book, in the middle of the day. Even though I wanted to finish the day.
