Thread: Guardian's Journey

Thomas Wyse The One with an aura of Kindness and Love Guardians 1. Artemis 2. ??? 3. ??? 4. ??? 5. ??? 6. ??? He couldn't believe it! To be chosen as one of the Five in the Guardian's Festival was nothing to sneeze at. Grant it he was late to the ceremony and was sort of put in last minute, Thomas had never ever dreamed he would be a part of history. Finally he had left the boring comforts of his Grandfather's Inn and could follow his dream of seeing the world! Even though he was excited and had all the confidence in the world, he was scared. Some of the people he had met in the Inn back home had told him nightmares of what they had seen or experienced during this journey. Not all the Humans and Gijinka were kind, some of them still held grudges against each other, and the festival that promoted peace. Death and dangers lurked when one wasn't looking, and there could be the chance of his bond breaking. Still Thomas wasn't one to give up. All those years growing up getting up early and spending most of his days doing chores had taught him to be responsible and to never give up or give in to doubt. Not that he was perfect, he still doubted sometimes. Nor was he really that brave when it came to traveling through large forests like the one he was in now. Glancing at a map upon the screen of a tablet, there would be an Inn coming up. The first rest stop for many who had started this festival's journey. Just a little more, maybe, hopefully less he was getting tired of walking. Glancing over his shoulder he shyly smiled at the Aron who had become his first Guardian. Artemis, how are you feeling? If you want to take a break we can, though from what the map is saying we should reach the first Inn within the hour. he politely stated to her with concern. After all she was wearing armor? Didn't it weigh her down? Surly she was tired of walking in it? Still given the odd costume she wore it was kind of adorable seeing her with her weapon and all. Other than Gijinka guests coming to stay in the Inn and everything back home, Artemis was the first Gijinka he would be personally spending a long time with. Stopping he fully turned around and shoved the tablet back into his bag. We don't have to hurry. I was kind of a late entry in the Festival after all. he stated rubbing the back of his head. She was probably fine, he still couldn't help but be concerned. The moment their eyes met, and when they both had become partners, he suddenly felt safer around her. Maybe it was her sturdy like appearance or her beautiful eyes that seemed so soft and soothing. So far they hadn't run into any danger, their trip from the festival grounds to the forest had seemed peaceful. He hoped it would stay that way, that maybe all those rumors were told to Thomas just to scare him. Maybe he was being a little forward too. He didn't know much about the festival from what he had seen on the television each year. Mostly it was just the battles, the in between journey parts were left without cameras. As a boy he would often imagine what would happen. He figured the groups got on a bus or plane to the next location. He was sort of bummed when Thomas found out he would be walking all the way to the summit. While he waited for an answer from Artemis, he reached into the bag and began to take a drink of water himself. Truth be told he wanted a break, to kind of just sit down, but the Inn was almost in reach so he would have time to relax later. She probably could tell he was nervous too, which he was. Part of him was so excited to see the world, while another part of him wished he would have just stayed home. It was kind of too late to turn back now unfortunately. Last edited Mar 4, 2019
