After Allan returned to the game, he found himself in the same spot where he left.
With his stomach full and time to think, Allan found exactly what he had to do.
"PLEASE!! Listen to me for a moment!!"
"GET OUT, I don´t want to know anything about you, I was mistaken when I saw you for the first time"
And here he was, begging the only NPC with whom he don´t have an unfriendly relationship, Carl.
The moment he gained the bad seed title all his relationships were lowered by a stage, meaning Carl was at the level of a stranger and the only person that may listen to Allan´s history.
"I won´t get out until you listen to me" Insisted Allan from the side of the counter.
"If you don´t stop making trouble I will call the guards and expel you from the library" threatened Carl.
As if seeing that Carl´s relationship bar was lowering to unfriendly levels very quickly Allan tried a subtler approach.
"Why? I am not making trouble nor I am raising my voice in the library, will you throw out anyone who only wants you to listen to him for a moment?
"Isn´t the library a public place where anyone can enter as long as they are not causing problems?"
"You are causing problems for me!" Nearly shouted Carl.
Realizing what he had done, Carl lowered his voice but he didn´t seem to be keen on listening to whatever Allan had to say.
"Then I am not going to speak to you anymore, but I will remain here until you listen to what I have to say" Insisted Allan.
He didn´t have any other choice, based on the way Carl treated him, he knew that it would be a miracle if anybody else don´t throw him out of their places and call the guards the moment they see him.
That would lead to nowhere.
"Then you can remain here all your life" With that, Carl started to ignore Allan and continued working.
Allan knew this would take a long time, so he intended to speed up the process the same way he gained friendly status with Carl. He was going to read a book.
Contrary to the second floor, where Allan was before, the books on the first floor aren´t very interesting to Allan.
The first floor consisted of books about history, old poems, geography, and other subjects which would be ignored by most players except the ones who think that could be a hidden quest in them.
As Allan searched for what to read, he found a very interesting book.
´The Origin of the Creation´
It sounded like a religious book which didn´t arouse his interest but remembering the questions he had about the race´s descriptions he picked it up and started reading it.
After reading it for a while Allan quickly became immersed in it.
It was a bunch of religious nonsense!
But if you read it as a fiction novel it became interesting.
In resume, the book said that at the beginning of creation, there were three gods; Alumos the god of the light, Zenumbra the goddess of darkness, and their parent god about which it didn´t say much.
Alumos and Zenumbra were deeply in love and had five kids (Yeah, they were brothers but incest is not something new in mythology), whose names were Solos, Aqua, Aero, Gaia, and Berros.
One day the gods decided to have a contest to know who could do the best creation.
Gaia created a planet, the biggest thing made to date.
Aero laughed at his sister and created the air and tornadoes on Gaia´s creation, saying that even if it was the biggest thing ever made with enough time it would be reduced to sand by his wind so his creation was the best.
Aqua created the oceans, lakes, and rivers. Saying that even if Aero's creation could destroy Gaia´s there was nothing it could do to destroy hers, so she was the winner.
Solos used his powers and created the sun and said that in the end the creations of his brothers would be destroyed but by that time the sun would continue existing, and so he was convinced that there was nothing the others could do to win.
Berros on the other hand was unsure what to do, he didn´t have much interest in the contest but he didn´t want to be mocked by his brother and sisters, so he didn´t do anything and started to think what was the greatest possible thing to be created.
And so, he realized that the biggest creation ever made until the date was them!
No matter what they did they wouldn´t win against their parents for they were the greatest creations. In that instant Berros decided what he would do, he would create life.
But he didn´t want to do it with his sisters because that way they could say that his creation was also theirs, so he tried to do it alone. But it was difficult, everything that he did end in nothing.
After innumerable tries he discovered that he couldn´t make anything as great as him, so he decided to make something lesser than him, something weaker, less durable, and not so eternal.
He used Gaia´s planet as the only place they could exist, Aqua´s water as necessary for them to live, and Solos´s sun as their personal heater for them to not freeze to death.
After he was finished, he looked at his creations: three different existences, so imperfect and weak, but at least they were alive, so he was sure he was the winner. He called them beasts, based on his name.
When Berros showed his creations to his siblings, they were unsatisfied, claiming that there was no way such ugly things were betters than their creations, but after listening to his reasoning they could only concede that he was right and they were indeed the greatest creation. After them, of course.
Still, they thought they could do it better than Berros so they decided to create their own races.
But after making the same mistakes that Berros did, they finally acknowledge that what Berros did to create such abominations was many times more difficult than what they did to make theirs.
After an indefinite amount of time, Aero was the first to accomplish their goal.
He took Berros´s creation and gave them the ability to fly in the sky, but their huge bodies couldn´t stay in the sky for much time so he made them smaller but faster so nobody could catch them and name them Dragons.
Aqua was next, she based her creations on his brother´s but she made them bigger and stronger their huge bodies could not survive on land, so she gave them the ability to live in the water, and only in the water. She was not as shameless as his brother Aero, naming them as if they were a new race, so she names them water beasts.
Gaia took a completely new approach to her brother. Her creations were not as ugly as Berros, they were beautiful but more fragile and they didn´t have the ability to move. After she finished them, she called them plants.
"All right, I will listen to what you have to say"
When Allan was in the middle of the book, he heard a voice that interrupted his concentration, he lifted his head and saw Carl looking at him with a strange look, half annoyed half amused, in his eyes.
After processing the words that he heard, Allan was overjoyed. He put the book´s content in the back of his mind and proceeded to put the book in its correct place.
Carl was finally going to listen to his history.
