Gora feels ecstatic as she opens her room though feels devastated to see it had been cleaned”noooooooo!”

  she rushed around the room trying to figure out where everything had been put” that shitty old man he knows i have a system for everything fuck where did he put all my stuff”

  as she rummages through her odd cabinets and chest she starts to once again make a mess of the pce not bothering to put anything back that she takes out. Not finding what shes looking for she dishearteningly lies in her bed and covers herself with her bnket”dammit that shitty old man must of thrown them away”

  She lies in her bed feeling quite upset and eventually just passes out. The next morning gora wakes to a knocking on her door” gora wake up you’re gonna miss breakfast”

  Gora groggily gets up and opens the door. Dressed in her cloth clothes she looks much more casual than their use to the astrans cant help but chuckle. Still half asleep gora looks down at herself to see what so funny looking upset once she looks back up at them”what’s so funny can i not sleep in my own room in some comfortable clothes?”

  The two astrans who are accompanied by kompsos cant help but ugh now “ hey who the hell invited you kompsos?!?”

  She says sounding quite annoyed.”sorry but you never told these two idiots where your room was. acting like you were gonna wake up before them and come get them.”

  Gora huffs and sighs”fine im sorry utum and secomi”

  she looks back to kompsos”by the way kompsos do have anything on you it seems my grandfather found my stash and threw it out”

  Kompsos chuckles abit and nods”ya sure when i arrived your grandfather must of been in a good mood he gave me a bag full of some and this sweet pipe”

  he says holding out a decent size bag of crushed up pnt matter to which gora quickly recognizes to be hers”hey that’s my stuff bozo!”

  Kompsos grins holding it above her head”eh eh eh finders keepers you should of known better than to keep your stuff where your grandfather will find it”

  Gora sighs and lowers head reaching down to her satchel that has always been on her person. She pulls out a few red mushrooms and some red crushed up leaves”fine i found these while in the nds of astra i put the leaves in a tea and they were quite stimuting and i haven’t dared eat the mushrooms yet so by all means take them”

  Kompsos grins and hands gora back her stuff putting it in a satchel of his own as gora goes in her room. Utum and secomi are quite confused what they were talking about. Minutes ter gora comes out dressed in her normal attire. though as Kompsos follows along with them and an odd smell lingers in the air. They ignore it for now and move on

  They make their way down the hall utum feels unsure about while secomi seems uninterested” so wheres the dinning hall?”

  Secomi ask rather nonchantly. Gora who now seems to be more awake smiles and gestures to the path way down the hall. Secomi squints looking at it. He looks to the opposite side of the wall from the pathway and sees the hallway leading to his room”oh so it was right across? This pce is pretty small compared to the pace at Oneidora.”

  While secomi most likely didn’t mean any offense the two sokarans are hit heavy by their words they both look at secomi their eyes pierce his very soul. hes not sure if its out of fear or the sokarans discharging their geia but every hair on secomi stands up he quickly holds a hand out as if hes trying to halt their hostility”wait no i didn’t mean it like that I-”

  “A bewildering castle is no repcement for a comfy manor!”

  The two sokarans chant this phrase in unison causing secomi as well as utum to be taken back.”the sokarans would never make such rge waist-full homes!”

  Secomi is taken a back by the aggressiveness of gora”sorry gora really i didn’t mean anything by it”

  Gora rolls her eyes and proceeds to what seems to be a rge area of commerce. In the middle of the room there would be a rge pot sitting on top of a fire. Dyues grand chief of all the sokarans vanquisher of a 10000 men defender of Sokara would be making his subjects breakfast. The two astrans were shocked to see this.actually looking away from the sight of it thinking they have seen something they should have never seen. Though this just causes gora to look confusedly at her guest. kompsos had already walked off and is grabbing a bowl from dyues.”huh whats the matter? Are two just gonna stand there all day or you gonna go eat? We have some difficult challenges ahead of us and you’ll need your energy”

  Gora looked at the two astrans quite annoyed she was really starting to regret her picks maybe cofus would of been better after all. shes sure hed probably prefer it over whatever Codia would be having him do by now, she thinks to herself.

  The astrans look at each other for a moment but say nothing to each other.”I’m sorry miss gora you see me and secomi are not high css nobles like captain rex and cofus. I’m barely a low noble myself and secomi doesn’t even come from a noble family. We have never before left the nds of astra in this way and communicated with other peoples we are truly sorry if we act in a way that’s rude this is all very new to us not just the location and the people but the very situation itself”

  Utum would be lowering his head to gora secomi panics seeing him do it and quickly follows his actions.”yes were truly sorry dy grigora”

  Gora looks down at the two with a look of pure bewilderment. She herself now doesn’t know how to handle the out of pce astrans.” Stop this just stop! stop bringing your foreign ways into my foreign nds just shut up and go eat the soup my grandfather made! In a few hours were about to go head to head with him and some goons in order secure my grandfathers aid in battle. I have no clue whats wrong with you astrou but im quite sick of your odd habits.”

  They stand back up not sure what to do they just shut their mouths and go get a bowl of soup saying good morning to grand chief dyues as he pours them a bowl. They then sit next to kompsos as he was sitting by himself and they didn’t see any point in not talking to him.

  Kompsos looks at them while eating, gora sits down with them soon after with a bowl of their own. They looked down at the food it looked quite good though it still felt weird to think they have eaten the food prepared to them by a grand chief and to have enjoyed it quite as well.

  They quickly finished up their meal so graciously prepared for them by the grand chief. Gora stood up and ran to a door on the side of the wall like most doors are. Opening the door she took a deep breath as she looked on through the other side. Utum and secomi followed by kompsos join her and look through as well. In Front of them id a field made for a variety of sports the trees to the side of the field. The leaves would be turning yellow as fall has begun. she smiles enjoying the fresh air of her home once again as she steps outside

  There was a board on the side of the field close to the house. Gora looks over at the little possy following her”OK you see that board over there guys that’ll have the events on it. I’m sure my grandfather has already chosen his events so lets go over and look”

  They all agree and make way to the board. It seems to have numerous slots for sliding in wooden panels utum and secomi look at the events quite curiously. This antagon would only hold 3 single competitor events as they look at the board they’re not sure what it says as neither of them can read sokaran. Though as the two astrans try to read the board gora and kompsos would be looking through a wooden crate that seemed to be full of these wooden panels” kompsos help me find the discus panel”

  Gora says as she starts rummaging through the box. Kompsos sighs and gets on his knees and starts helping”ugh fine i guess i got nothing better to do”

  Gora chuckles abit as she digs through panels.” kompsos you should really just give up im not gonna marry you”

  Kompsos nearly falls onto his back as he dramatically grabs his heart”gora how could you say such rude things to a beloved child hood friend”

  His voice sound artificially hurt as her words leave no real sting”ya whatever were only friends because of our retives positions at this point in time kompsos you’re just the old dog my grandfathers vassal brings around”

  This time kompsos actually does fall onto his back her words cut deeper than he thought possible. He thought he had finally built up an immunity to her sharp tongue, but how foolish he had been as he now lies on the ground as his heart feels as if it had been cut in two, though Gora takes no notice of her work as she finally finds the panel she had been looking for”ah hah!”

  She grabs it and quickly runs up to the board sliding it in. now that’s done she can finally see what challenges her grandfather had put up. As her eyes move across the bored a sense of uneasiness fills her. The challenges her grandfather has issued is log splitting and boxing!

  Gora looks at the ter challenge quite confusedly. Surely her grandfather wouldn’t participate in this challenge. Especially not against her. It would be odd to challenge her like that, she thought. Though she most certainly didn’t feel great about log splitting. This was something she knew the astrans knew nothing about shes not even sure how they could do it. Its a clever trap she thought”secomi you will be doing log splitting you’re a clever man i believe you’ll find a way to do it.”

  Secomi feels uneasy himself now”wait hold on i don’t even know what log splitting is why cant i do discus you’d be much better at it than me at least”

  Gora shakes her head”no that’s my grandfathers pn undoubtedly he will pick discus as well it was something he took great pride in in his youth and he knows that im gonna pick discus too so there’s that. I doubt i could beat my grandfather in log splitting if for some weird reason he didn’t choose discus and there’s now way he would ever choose boxing my grandfather is 120 he hasn’t picked up a weapon in decades i bet. And i doubt anyone could beat utum in boxing he enormous!”

  Secomi sighs and thinks it over”so i guess im just the sacrificial mb? If you are as good in discus as you say that’s a guarantee win and ya utum is definitely our best choice for boxing. Fine I’m in ill do it”

  Utum smiles a bit as he feels very appreciated at this moment in time. Gora smiles and stands confidentially once again. Kompsos finally recovering gets up and walks over to gora and them. though doesn’t say anything as he has a look of uneasiness upon him. Gora doesn’t notice though and just smiles as she looks at her astran companions”OK so its settled ill do discus where ill surely win. Secomi i guess try your best in log splitting? And utum i doubt there’s anyone here that could defeat you”

  Secomi once again sighs, still quite unsure about this”i guess i do have until noon to practice. I don’t pn on losing”

  Gora smiles and gives him a very big over exaggerated smile as she gives him a thumbs up”good for you buddy”

  Secomi tired of this situation just shakes his head and tries his best to just smile at gora copying her little gesture as utum looks confusedly between the two. He coughs into his hand to try and brake the silence of the the smiling idiots giving each other thumbs up”um so i guess ill start doing some warm ups or something”

  Gora shakes her head and looks to utum”huh oh ya sorry that would probably be best. i guess ill help secomi practice till noon though im not sure what i can teach an astran about log splitting.

  Secomi eyebrow twitch a little” all i have to do is split a log right how hard can it be?”

  Gora pats secomi on the back giving him another big smile”that’s the spirit!”

  She says giving him another thumbs up. Secomi lets out another sigh of disappointment. he has a feeling that today would be an event he would remember for the rest of his life. So as gora drags him along to set up the logs utum begins stretching. Leaving a pondering kompsos at the board by himself.
