Clank!Clank!Clank!The sounds of the pickaxe ran down the Drystone Mines as the young boy Avant Vita is mining out the Drystones, another sound was also present in the mines, the sound of snoring coming from a dark-hooded man near a nearly-filled minecart. His name was Ferdinand, his figure was tall and slim, it was rumored those who saw his face would be killed but to others who did not he would be kind, under where his throat would be is a necklace in the shape of the gemstone Soraphus, yellow exactly just like it's real self. It's small and quite frequently look like it's choking him but he never made a sound like choking is a part of breathing to him.
Sweat dropped down Avant's face as he pickaxed the Drystones near him never knowing his journey is beginning today. As the dark-hooded Ferdinand pulled out a clear drink and put it near him,he said:
"You're working hard over there, want some water?"He said with a sincere and gentle tone, his hands pressing on invisible air in the process for whatever reason.
Avant replied after putting his pickaxe down and panting for a bit:"Sure, wait I forgot to ask why did you chose inhabit my mining place today?You could literally just stand outside the mines you know?"
Ferdinand looked at him as though he had a Third Eye making him feel pressure before saying in a weird tone:"None of your business" before giving the drink to him as he said"Here".
Avant said nothing else as he remained silent drinking in the pure, distilled water and getting back to work keeping in mind what happened today and making a note as to not ask him about his intentions too much. He got back immediately after the drink and Ferdinand slept again as though that encounter never happened. In the late afternoon, he walked outside of the mine as he walked towards his house, noticing Ferdinand isn't outside. But he disregards and walked back to his house in Firedust Town.
