Chapter 2 - 1.Memory of the past

In a dark cold cave, young albino and small rat kin laid on its side on the cold ground drag it injure body through a small cavern.

its white fur tainted with blood it green eyes expressing nothing but pain and desperation following a whisper in it mind that came to it mind with it life was in danger.

the little one made its way into a crack into wall that the whisper led to follow the whisper the rat kin found itself in a stone room in underground structure made by tool

it was less cold inside this room then the cave on the order side of the crake and much bigger than the little albino rat kin.

But that did not matter to it. what matter to it was the several clays jars that whisper was pointing out to them

made its way to a group of jars and made its way to a broken one at the bottom of it were pink mushroom fell out of them the little rat kin look at them and a word care to its mind.

"Equbrosia"

when consumed it has a regenerating on the body effect upon the subject and nurtures the soul and necessary material for alchemy in making the rare soul nurturing potion.

the albino rat kin green eye shows some confusion in eyes for its did not understand how it knew this, but it's not focus on this for pain did not stop ring in it mind show it continue make it way to the one of mushroom.

"Equbrosia"

grabs it in claw little rat kin and took a bite of it could not taste it only the blood in its mouth.

immediately the mushroom took effect and a warm current flow through its body the pain within its self-less enough to move so it's got off its side and start to eat more and more of the mushroom.

as it did so the whisper and the light in its eyes of the little green eyes rat kin mind grow louder and clear and its soul grow stronger for when thirst came to it drink from an old pool with broken glass all around it of dark pink potion it was the remain of a soul nurturing potion as images came to mind.

the rat kin stay there in the stone room for three days three night eating the mushroom and drink from a pool that made of broken glass of potion.

the little rat kin wounds healed on first day but stay to continue eat the pink mushroom and listen to whisper that filled their head let it and the images that flow into their mind and the image show them thing it did not understand but as they ate in time they did understand.

these were memory the whisper were the thoughts. not by the mind of this small rat kin body but the soul it did not understand how it knew this it just knew.

the little rat kin knew the thoughts of the soul were right and it trust this soul with in itself for it was a part of itself.

now that the thoughts of soul were fill green eye rat kin mind it the image were memory they were of its life as a human it was a warlock of the star maker were their patron the master of the stellar forge.

they guide them to through many battle that lead them to the peak of their world and when he was so close to ascension become a patron like the star maker and then.

???

confusion fill the little rat kin green eye.

speaking in a gutral beast tongue of the vermin.in a whisper of a voice to themself

"Nothing. I can't remember."

the little rat kin can't seem too what happen to its only remember the feel that came to it mind was pain great pain not from the body but that soul.

yes, that what happen someone attack their soul when they try to ascension that must be what happen.

speaking again to themself in the beast tongue

"I need to make contact with the star maker they must know what happen to me."

"To do that I need soul essence it and seem the only thing I can use are these mushrooms looking around there are no better resources to use and I'm not strong enough to kill the other rat kin outside of the cave for their essence don't know why just know mustn't leave in to until they are ready."

"When I have enough essence i will leave the cave make my way to surface must wait for night need the light of night the star sky yes"

"unh...the pain

the little green eye rat kin hold their head. in their little hand clutching it in pain into it taking deep breaths till the pain fade away

the green eye rat kin speaking to themself.

"My soul it damages and weak I can deal with my memory only my Patron could fix this I have limited amount of time to get to them the star maker can fix this until then."

"Need to eat more of the mushroom yes eat more the mushroom!!!"

" I'll use the mushroom to nurture my soul and make some soul essence to make through the star maker method and make contact with the star maker this could work it just take a little time."

the little young rat kin continue eat the mushroom thinking and look around the small stone room. There was crack all thought out wall of the cave other than the hole that they came thought there is a sealed door most likely to connect with other rooms to these underground structures taking inventory counting the several cray jar and notice two crats of undamaged potion's soul nurturing potion.

"Good stuff this place seem to be a storage room of some kind wonder of its origin."

"I can work with this."

the little green eye rat kin pick up to two pink mushrooms in their mouth and chewed on them.

"I just need to wait and cultivate soul essence."
