Synopsis
Normally, a farmer would just be a regular person that would farm crops, sell them and be a normal upstanding citizen(read as: follow rules). They would also occasionally join a local militia or army to help clear out some trouble or protecting their homeland. Farmers are the life blood of a nation, without them, stable food sources would be hard to procure. Too bad we almost never see their everyday lives, as they may be considered too boring with all the wait time. Too bad indeed.... .......Well, if you haven’t guessed it now, this is a story about a ‘regular’ farmer, though with a small caveat. He’s a walking, talking corpse, as in most of his body is biologically dead, but some kind of magic is still maintaining the cells somehow, so they keep rotting, but still divide. That’s it, he’s just a normal farmer.( I know some of you all are thinking he has some other kind of OP superpower, or is amazingly skilled at something, or if not, then he’s going to get OP later on. I just know it.) This is his story of how he lives his life as a farmer. ————————————————————— Well, this is my first novel ever, so there’s that. There’s also the fact that I do not have any plot for this thing, besides just having fun and coming up with cool( random) ideas and seeing how they fit here. Well. I have no idea where this is gonna be going either, but I am leaning towards him just living an ordinary life. Though if you have grand ideas of what he will do, just wait and see, even I do not know what will happen. It might happen, or it might not, let’s see. Also, updates will be very sporadic as I am not really truly invested into writing yet, though that may change in the future. Expect updates to be random in length and in release time. Apologies to any people who are irritated by it.

Chapter 1 - A good day.

As the sound of wind rushes past my ear and caresses my cheeks, I look up to see a blue sky dotted with grey or white streaks of scattered clouds that seem to flow randomly towards any direction, indiscriminately taking chunks of other clouds with them or moving aside for others of their floaty and fluffy kind to replace their absence. A sun hangs in that blue sky, bright yellow and occasionally being blocked by those ever so whimsical clouds, it stands as a quiet giver of life as it silently passes on its light to all of us before it silently drops away and out of sight on the horizon before popping back up to give its quiet support.

As the sound of waves crashing reach my ear, I close my eyes and tilt my head down before opening them again to see a great expanse of water, churning towards the sheer cliff face. First starting as a gentle rise far away, and ending as a large thing high enough to engulf a man and keep him below, attempting to crush the sheer stone cliff in its path, and always it has proved itself wanting as the sharp edge of the cliff cuts in between the waves and breaks its charge. After having broken its charge, the wave runs further before being broken by other smaller spikes of stone jutting out of the ground and above the water.

Standing on top of the cliff face, with grass up to my calves, a path of short grass behind and a farmer's scythe to my side as I stand in my farmer overalls and heavy boots. My left eye is hanging along my cheek, before I plop it back in. I breathe in the smell of the salty breeze and fresh air and breathe out a sigh of relief, filled with bacteria, decaying flesh and other nasty stuff, Before I speak aloud to nobody in particular "What a good day it is."
