"Are you excited my little birdy" a older woman woman said as she put down a bowl filled with dark liquid and chunks of meat. She has white straight long hair, brown eyes and rough facial features, she was human. The room is large and in the shape of a circle, hide bedrolls laid on the ground. The enclosed space was lit up brightly by several candles and natural lighting from a a open curtain door. A teenage boy sat at a table in the middle of the room, the same table the bowl was placed down at. He was mostly a normal looking demi-human teen. Instead of hair on his head he had long brown feather from his head down to his neck. He did have human eyes and a human mouth but had large brown bird like eyes. He wore basic brown hide amour that protected his chest and legs. He wore black boots that were dirty and beaten up.
"Of course eej. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous thou." The teen said as he grabbed the bowl. He would gently eat the meat chunks with his hands and drank from the bowl. He would put the bowl down only to see the woman giving him a gentle smile. "You will be fine my little birdy. You will make a perfect fit at the academy. My little man going to be a warrior" she said smiling at him. She would poke his nose and take his empty bowl. "Make sure to see your father before you leave he has a gift for you." The woman said softly a couple of tears would drop from her face as she put the dirty bowl in a large stack. The teenage male would walk over to her and give her a gentle hug she was taller then him as he stood 5,6 and she stood 5,7. they would embrace eachother for a few seconds before they both let go. She would tilt her head and give a gentle smile. He would smile back then would turn towards the open exit, a bag laying right next to it. he would take steps forward and would pick up the tightly packed bag. He would look back at his mother one last time then would leave the tent.
Outside the tent was a large open field filled with tents and grazing animals. The teen would walk through the field smiling and waving at others. They would wish him luck then would carry on with their day. The teen would keep walking till he reached a large unlit bonfire with an older man and some kids sitting nearby. "so there i was riding with the strongest Calvary in ushion forces making the final charge to end the great war. Arrows flew and allies fell but i kept charging through the enemy infantry taking lifes like i was picking berries... WHEN SUDDLENY A SPEAR STRUCK ME KNOCKING ME OFF MY HORSE. I ROSE AND-" the man said the story with great passion and the kids sat there infatuated with it. the man would stop mid story and raise his arm towards the teen, there would be no hand on the arm he pointed with. "Yul my boy i was telling them your favorite story.. before i forget. Here" the man would move his arm, with a hand, and raise it to his mouth giving off a loud whistle after a second galloping could be heard as a large horse with black and red spots would appear. It would slow down as it got closer and would enter a full stop next to the man.
Yul would give a big smile as he hopped onto the already saddled horse. He would open his mouth but before he could speak the man would talk. "listen boy stay safe, but still be brave. Be gentle, but stay strong. NOW GO" he said as he slapped the horses bottom forcing it to take off. Yul would turn his head around to see his human father waving his arms around. yul would give a smile as he turned his head forward. This was the beginning of his new life and he couldn't be more excited.
