“To start off, I’m an Arbitrator of Gaia. Through her authority, I’m allowed to determine a person’s fate in accordance with the prevailing culture. Gaia has determined that I need to step into this situation due to the rapid change of culture that will occur to your people. They must combine with other societies. To
After repeatedly assuring Dubhe and Lilia that I’m not some biblical figure, no character in a parable, I look down and see Mika had woken up. I want to talk to her, but when she looks around, she starts to cry. She is just sitting there, on the ground, crying. Despite spending some time
Gaia sighs again. Very loudly. “Relax, child. You may protect him, and you may go with him, but you may not help him. He must enact his own ideas and plans. He may help you with your ideas, however.” “YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.” Lilia bounds into the air. She jumps up and down a few times before
“MY food… … source…!” Lilia makes a cute kid like growling noise. It’s like a bird chirp in ferocity in comparison to Dubhe’s growls in its intimidation effectiveness.

It must be several hours later now, but I can’t be sure, I don’t have a watch. To be honest, aside from the rush with our current circumstances, time seems pretty arbitrary in this world. The sunlight feels like it is high noon. I find it hard to gauge though, because I can’t identify
According to the bearfolk woman, her people, specifically the males, can generate quite strong defensive barriers. I snorted a bit when I heard that. Mika and I had, after all, killed about twenty bears by now. “We understand your small minded thinking. Bearfolk are a very proud race. It wouldn’t sit well with our
“Well, now, hold on darling.” The bearfolk woman recovered quickly. “We can do something about that, erm… Probably.” She didn’t sound too convincing, but to be honest, I was hungry. “Tristain, I’m hungry.” I notified him. “Hmmm…” He looked at me. I couldn’t place what that look meant, except that he was
