Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

Meanwhile in a dark basement in the city some people were plotting on how to get Nelion by force. You won't believe some people here wanted that for their motherland whilst people like Ryan sought the place as peaceful havens from their noisy world.The six men sat around the table gathering tactics on the best way to acquire the lands quickly. Unknown to them the basement had secret cameras and someone was watching their every move.As at now the six men seemed to be in an argument and suddenly one shot the other." You'll be next!" a voice growled and silence overtook the entire basement. The person watching them laughed hysterically almost landing on the floor. "Fools!" he mattered with a devilsh grin as his laughter died off." One down five more to go" he swirled on his chair thoughtfully. He had been to Nelion and he knew the place was gold. From the land to the occupants. They were unlike the city where evil was outgrowing goodness. He knew many who were after the gold but he had vowed to lay his life down to protect the place.

Ryan went to his apartment and packed all he needed for the mini vacation. He had earlier switched off his phone so that anyone thinking of tracking him would be at loss.This apartment was one place he loved since no one knew about it's existence. It was in the outskirts of the city and a kilometer away from the Great River. The river was big enough to sail a yatch and that's how he found himself in Nelion when he decided to try out his yacht in the Great River. He laughed at the memory when he docked in Nelion and fine strong young men were pointing arrows at him. Their stares were unforgiving and saw him as an enemy. It was then that Hiran stopped them from doing anything to him and he was surprised they understood each other despite the different language they used. Hiran had a lighter skin as his but also noticed other men with the same skin color. He was shocked to see many males with no indication of women at all and he had had to ask and it was interesting on how they lived." You all look so young to be away from your families" he had said which made Hiran chuckle " Age is just a number Ryan.. We're trained from a very young age but after initiation we're supposed to protect the community before we settle down for marriage. I'm only 20years and I'm a leader and my responsibilities are many towards my people." Ryan was dumbfounded. The men in question were many some looked even older than Hiran and he led the defence. It was amazing to him whilst in the city at 20 you would still be in school." Why are you here? It's dangerous, you were lucky I saved from the hands of my men" " I was testing out my yacht before I decided to dock here and see what's on this side. A little adventure." Hiran had checked him out from head to toe." I trust you but did you come alone?" " Yeah, just needed some space man" They had talked for along while and he felt like they knew each for long. Hiran had taken him around the place and introduced him to people he thought were important. He had shared a meal with them and he had eaten so heartily and had been shocked by his appetite. Hiran had taken him to a cave in the evening and he slept more comfortably then and it surprised him since it was well knitted mat placed on the ground.By the time he decided to return to the city he felt like he was leaving home. He had experienced what it feels like to live a normal life and now that's was where he was going for his mini vacation.
