   Rafe woke up in a bed made out of white sheep fur and looked around him quickly, he had no idea where he was, his heart started beating quickly his blood started rushing quickly, he jumped out of his bed he notices he was no longer wearing his old torn up clothes he was wearing a black shirt with string holding the sleaves in expose and mad Brown sheepskin pants on he was so confused, he rushed out of the room and found himself in on a dirt path surrounded by straw roof and wooden walled huts the bright sun hit him hard he moved his arm in front of his face to block the sun he started to run down the path he ran and ran watching the huts pass him by he then found himself in a field where men and woman were planting and harvesting fruits and rice.

   Rafe fell to the ground he had no idea where he was, he started to yell out for Alvis but she never came, an old man with a white beard and no hair on the top of his head approached Rafe. He sat kneeled down to Rafe "kid what were you doing up on that mountain all alone? Wheres your family?", Rafe looked at the man scared to talk, " what is family" he studdered, The man started to get a worried look, the boy in front of him had no family, no good clothes and was found upon the great family he wondered if the porosity the elders of the church scratched about was true, they warned the village a year earlier that an ancient war would be coming to their lands and it would all begin with a lost boy.

   The man looked down at Rafe "come with me boy you must be hungry", Rafe followed not trusting the man but knowing he wouldn't survive much longer without eating. They arrived at a hut with a blacksmith station in the back of the house, they entered through a dark wood door frame inside the man's hut was three rooms, one where they made the heat and cooked, the second where they all slept, and the third where they ate, the hut they walked into the feeding room where his family was eating bread and rice.

   The man pointed at his children, they had black hair and green eyes, the girl looked like she was 6 and the boy 10, " my daughter's name is Shia and my son's name is Rale" the man smiled then walked over to his wife "and this is Bria, my name is Hararald, how about you boy". Rafe looked and the man and tried to stand up straight as possible "my name his Rafe" he said while
Slightly stuttering.

   The Herarald handed Rafe a piece of bread Rafe quickly grabbed the bread then went to the corner sat on his knees and quickly ate the bread, Rafe hadn't seen another human for many of years so he wasn't so sure what to think of them or if he could trust them, he just wish Alvis would come back soon. The family ate their meal and laughed and told stories of their day while Rafe sat in his corner watching everything. Rafe woke up the next day still on his knees in his corner, he stood up stretching his legs out, he looked around the hut, no one was home, he could see the tree line to Sio forest he could just run home he kept on thinking but something in the back of his mind kept telling him to stay, to become human not wolf but he knew his duty to become the protector of Sio forest he only had 6 years to go, six years to train and become one with the light and one with the forest, he knew all that to be true but still he didn't want to leave just yet.

   He decided to walk around the village to maybe find the children from the night before, he found them in the fields running and chasing each other, just like the wolf pups did in the cave and during hunts, these humans reminded him of his wolf family just they were a different type of animal.
