Iumavae Village
A village located in a small magical island in the middle of the ocean. Where the people ride Ikran's breathing fire. The village is unknown to many people—because the only people who lives there are outcasts. Jake is not the first one who betrays his own race.
The people who lives in the magical island are either once a human or once part of a clan. Faerrān is part of the village. Her mother was once a human while her father is a na'vi from the forest. Faerrān has four fingers and eyebrows. She inherits both her parents beautiful genes. She be friends with three girls and two boys. Faerrān is one of the most beautiful girl in the village. There is no doubt that boys will try to court her.
Along with her girl friends, they are currently at the water, collecting shells for their accessories.
"What do you girls think outside there?" nirani asked
"Don't know. I don't care. Our land is the most beautiful" elowynth answered
"Netell is true. The elders did say that our land is the only land with the most magical things" Faerrān inspected the pink shells on her hand
"How about this. Let's get a ride after this" elowynth suggest
"We have to ask for our parents permission first. We don't want anything to happen like last time do we?"
After they collect seashells, they go to their family's hammock or hut to ask for their permission.
"Father? Mother?" faerran called
She is at her family's hammock. She saw her younger sister sitting playing with wooden doll.
"Netell. Where is father and mother?"
"I don't know where father is. Mother is at the spirit tree with the other mothers"
"Could you please tell them that I'm going to go on a ride with my friends?"
Netell ignores her and continues playing.
"Rutxe?"
Faerran rolled her eyes when netell continue ignoring her. She turned around and jumped down the hammock.

Faerran made a calling noise. Soon, a dark purple ikran came flying to her. She jumped on its back and fly to her friends who is already waiting for her. Nirani is holding a basket.
"My mom asked me to pick pearls. My younger sibling is going to be born soon"
We nod at her. Nirani is the chief's daughter. She's the first in line to become the next leader. We flew across the ocean, feeling the cold wind and the smell of the ocean. My ikran flew close to the water. I stick out my hand to feel the water.
We left our ikran on top of a huge rock and dive in to help Nirani search for pearls. After an hour I signed Nirani that I will go to the surface. She nods, signing that she will stay a few more minutes to pick pearls. I didn't see Elowynth but I know that she swam around for fish. She just love eating fish so much.
I swam to the surface and called my ikran.
While I was flying around, I saw a tulkun. I squint my eyes when I saw someone with it. What is he doing here? He is not supposed to be here because the reef is part of our island. I readied my bow and wear my wooden mask.
He stand up. Cautiously staring at me. He puts his hand on the tulkun.
"Hello. I see you" he greets
Seeing that he has no weapon with him, I lowered my bow and greets him back.
"Oel ngati kameie"
"I didn't know there are people around here. Are you from the forest?"
"Island"
"Oh...ermm...iam actually lost. I'm from the metkayina clan"
"Metkayina? You don't look like you're from there"
"I'm actually from the forest...but my father decided to seek Ukturu in metkayina clan"
I squint my eyes
"Err...do you know the way back to Metkayina? It's getting dark and...i don't want to worry my family"
"...Fyape syaw fko ngar?"
"Lo'ak. How about you?"
"Faerran...I can get you there, but my friends are still around here-"
Nirani and Elowynth emerged from the water, already wearing their mask.
"Faerran-" elowynth started but quickly hissed when she saw Lo'ak
"He is not a threat Elowynth"
"What is he doing here?!" nirani asked with her spear pointing at him
"He is lost. He's from the Metkayina clan"
"Metkayina? He looks like a forest people"
"The day is getting darker. How about we left him here and go back?" elowynth called her ikran and jumped on it. Nirani doing the same
"But, he's at the reef. You know what lurks around here"
"But it's getting dark! Our parents will be worried!"
"We can't just leave him here"
"Then how about we bring him back? We will send him home tomorrow"
"are you okay with that Lo'ak?" I asked him
He looks at the tulkun for a few seconds before he nod. I grab him up to my Ikran and we flew back home.
