Prologue

Small footsteps were left on the hot desert sand. Only the sun accompanied a vanilla colored cloaked figure in the middle of the desert. The wind blows slightly as the figure adjusts her hood to keep it from falling. Under her cloak is blue cheongsam top with grey leggings, acompany with a dark red sash around her waist. At her feet is comfortable brown flats, as she walked more across the sand. The hood fall back a little to reveal a young woman of age twenty with dark brown hair but as the sunlight shine on her hair, shows a few hair strands of deep red mixed in. Her chocolate brown eyes looks around to see only sand. The woman adjusts her hood to cover her eyes from the glaring light; her back carries a medium size brown bag. On the flap of the bag are a couple of rolled up blankets tied on to it.


Walking on her journey, she is thankful for her cloak to protect her body from the heat. Her parents gave her the name of Nagi. When she was young, Nagi always ask her mother why she gives her that name but her mother always answered.

'Your name means Safety; our ancestors always treasure the name that is given by their parents. Without a name, we are only lost souls searching for a purpose in life.'

Something caught her eyes, something tiny in the distance. Her feet stop to slowly approach the figure. Her mind goes through many possibilities such as treasure, unknown piece of history, or something... dangerous. Nagi's eyes widen as the tiny item turns out to be a person, a blue haired child! She rushes to his side quickly as Nagi slowly laid her ear on the child's chest to check for a heartbeat.

Thump….thump…

Nagi silently thank the heavens as she decides to find a place to set up camp for the day since it's almost dark. With no troubles for now of setting up her tent, she places the child on an extra blanket to rest on. Opening her bag to take out a couple of water sacks and dry up meat for them. Nagi check on the child once more, she slowly pets the blue haired child to see the child slowly reacting to her hand. His head lean towards her hand as he relaxes. She smiles as she remembers taking care her younger family members while the adults handle with selling their merchandise.

Her hand stops when she notices a jewelry piece on his forehead. Nagi remove her hand slowly when hearing slow breathing indicating sleeping from the boy. She drinks a bit of water from the water sack and chew on a piece of dry meat. A small yawn left her lips and lay out a blanket for her. Laying on her blanket, her eyes grew heavy and loose herself in a deep sleep.
