After some time of the sensation of being dragged somewhere fades, the world brightens slowly, eventually revealing lights,then colors and then, slowly his eyes focus, landing on a young man, with a bit of a dirty face, as if having rushed from the farm, though he was used to such a look back on earth. But, despite that, he takes quite a liking to him, from his humble look, to the honest eyes, it would be hard not to like him. But, what is this weird angle, as if I am looking up at him from being held in his arms? He lifts his hands, only to see two little baby fists appear in his vision. 'Wait, this cant be. Don't tell me I have been reborn entirely, then...why Done remember earth? Isn't the whole reborn thing supposed to wipe your memory like the religions always say? Fresh slate and all that?' That is when a voice speaks, deep in his mins, filled with so much love, it makes him tear up a bit listening to it. "You have been reborn anew, in another world, that will soon enough be attacked by the very same demons you remember. You had chosen to fight, and so you shall, grow strong while you can, prepare as best you can. I will see you soon Mon chéri." Blinking his eyes, shocked this revelation, afterwards, who expects a god, to answer your questions? Or to send you to a new world with your old memories intact? But tuning back in to the real world, he is now held by a beautiful ravine hair woman, though her face is clearly exhausted, but her smile is dazzling, and he cant help but fall into it, smiling in return. Though he doesn't understand why. 'So, these must be my new parents, they seem endearing and honest. I might actually like this life.' But, it doesn't take long before his eyes grow heavy, and he falls asleep, only to awaken when a nurse is moving around, checking his vitals,and his breathing, only to be startled by his calm and piercing gaze when she looks at his face, finding him studying her silently. 'Hm, though the clothes have similarities from earth, the nurses clothes seem a bit more informal but comfortable than earth, perhaps they have such advancements where uniformity isn't so pertinent or is she a house visiting nurse?' Unlike other babies, he doesn't cry, or make any sounds, simply watches her move about, giving her a bit of an unnerving feeling. And like this, a few days pass relatively uneventful, spending time being held by both his new mom and new dad, and sometimes breastfeeding, which makes him feel awkward to say this least, but he does need to eat,though he is mindful of not being too rough as he recalls many babies on earth suckling too hard, or teething and such. But, after a week had passed, something seemed to change about him it seems, as he parents are panicking and checking his right eye repeatedly, though he has perfectly clear vision, and not pain anywhere. And for the first time he can see the outside world, and what he can see makes him take it in, enjoying the beautiful scenery, and...something blue floating in the air throughout.'what is that?' He thinks to himself, though he read many fictional books on earth, with a bunch of different tropes, he didn't want to make assumptions based on fantasy, eventually they start walking through a small town with a classic but strong looking construction, more a fortress than a town or city. Entering a small store front, to the soft chime of bells above the door, the sound taking him back to earth for a moment when he is laid down on a very soft feeling bed,making him stretch happily before relaxing again, looking into the astonished eyes of a strangely green haired woman though quite tall, her touch is gentle as she looks over me before checking my eye, much like his parents did. 'What is up with my eye that has so many people worried?' Eventually as they hold him again, he catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror, a full head of two toned hair a mixture of his mothers ravine colored hair, and his fathered golden spun blonde hair, but the most striking thing? The heterochromia of his eyes, having his left one a lovely gray, whilst his right is a bright rich almost glowing midnight purple. 'Oh...I see,they were worried because of the heterochromia, it wasn't too common on earth either, but I am worried about my hair, why do i look like a domino ripoff from dead pool?' And after everyone talks for awhile in a tongue he doesn't understand, not surprising there. The green haired lady holds up a hand, slowly a soft green light fills her palm, eventually cascading over him, giving him a warm and energetic boost. 'What is that?!does this place have magic? Okay, now we are talking something cool here.' Seeming to just be getting a check up, the green haired lady seems to relax by the end of whatever she was doing,her expression saying what he couldn't understand her lips was. That he was perfectly fine, and that it might just be a simple pigment mutation. The parent's seeming relieved, try to pay her, only for the green haired woman to decline, making him curious of their relations, though he cant speak and ask yet, he notes it for later. The his parent's taking their leave, he gets to enjoy the new and beautiful scenery, something he thought he would never get to see again. Unbeknownst to him, his parents are talking about how he is so quiet, having not cried and was quite peaceful since they brought him home, but another bit to be discovered soon enough by the old made new warrior, he is not what he assumes, once he can understand there words in the coming weeks. He starts hearing with they call him...Lil Valkyrie. 'Am I translating wrong or have I been named Valkyrie, chooser of the slain? Why would they name a male that? Is a thought that passes through his mind when a soft giggle deep with his mind can be heard. "Why indeed, would they name a boy Valkyrie...perhaps you just haven't connected the dots yet...consider this a new day, and a new life..relish it like i would.". 'Hearing this, he cant help but frown inwardly, haven't connected the dots...valkyrie...Oh...Oh no please don't tell me...I am gender swapped?! What is wrong with you to do such a sick twisted thing!?' He roars, shaken by the thought that he is now a man trapped in a girl's body. After a few days of in near internal panic, he eventually calms down, choosing to accept this, after all, its not the worst thing that could happen. And like that,a few months pass uneventfully, his father going king to toil their farm, while his mother stays at home to tend to him and prepare his...her?...dad's lunch and dinner. In this time, he had begun doing some easy stretches, and exercises that he can do, starting early to gain strength, and within 6 months of being born into this word he was up and walking....though in his mind it couldn't have happened sooner, being trapped in his body was the absolute worst. Surprising both his parents as he walks around quite well, without falling and still a like of crying though odd, everyone has grown used to it. Within a year, he had finally deciphered most of the language, at least, he thinks he has. Sometimes replying with simple sentences, or short but to the best of his abilities, polite replies. Throughout all this, he never ceased doing stretches and exercises, though all unseen, he discovered that this body is far more flexible than his on earth, having been in sports or construction all his life, his back was unyielding, while here, his body moves and flexes in ways many can only dream of, especially so young, but he takes full advantage, working to stretch and use every muscle group as much as possible, repeating this for a second year, gaining better clearer speech, then a third where he can finally accompany them into town on his own feet, the he had noticed with clarity that he is dressed in dresses, or skirts,confirming his suspicion, but that's all, having seen it as hardly and issue, but now getting more opportunities to move around and grow stronger,eventually his parents let him run around the farm, where his dad works tirelessly to put food in his and his mother's mouth's. But, instead of aimlessly running around, he starts a daily regiment of running the fences before doing some push ups,though not many with his still frail weak body, but day by day, he adds more to his regiment, sometimes helping to plant crops, showing a deftness and understanding of their works, easing some of the burden on her dad. Like this, year 3 passes, and now almost 4 his new birthday closer to the beginning of the year, similar to February or march. Though he holds the memories of his past life, he does grow to love and enjoy his new one, despite his predicament of body form. Now, at the age of four, she shows a level of maturity, and knowledge that is a touch concerning for the parents since she is helping with the farm, more and more by they day, and they can notice the subtle changes of their daughters physique, now showcasing lean muscles, and sharp lines, a clear sign of lack of fat throughout her body, even at a young age, though they make sure she has plenty of food, and care, but her body is still lean, but quite strong for her age. It's by this point that she is put into school, though, most kids at her age are quite rambunctious and lack the attention to pay attention to class, she not only focuses in, but studies quite hard, six months pass as she learns the basics of the written common language, the different species, and that mana and magic exist, as well as some sort of awakening, with different abilities. Like the green haired lady his family is quite good friends with, and he gets free check ups with...for some reason? They think something is wrong with me despite the many reassurances that i am quite healthy and strong, her name is aileen, or at least her elven name is, she prefers lena or len here. And at first he mostly ignored the kids in the class, opting to choose delving more into this worlds history and gathering more information on races, their relationships, even the awakening that will happen roughly around 16 years of age. She also found out why her parents were worried about her heterochromia issues, most who have had this, were usually blind or blinded in one eye in this world, so the fact she has full vision is a small miracle in itself. But like this she spent the first semester of school.
