It's a beautiful Friday afternoon on May 15th 2014; and I'm headed to my best friend's house. We planned a sleepover in preparation for the finals at university. Who am I? Toro is my name! 3rd year university student and part time athlete.
It would be this fateful day that my life would change forever. The day I would be whisked away into a entirely different reality, and the realm of Fero would become my new home.
A change for the better? Listen to my story and you determine an answer.
I wasn't aware of my death, the day I died just saw the after action replay. Yeah I was lucky enough to just fade to black instantly; no feelings of impact or anything type of pain. Just gone. A fatal lightning strike that shut down the brain and left me roasted and decomposing on the sidewalk. As shocking as it sounds I didn't even end up in a news report, pun not intended.
An unknown amount of time later, I awoke in a forest in the realm of Fero. Like anyone who woke up from a nap and never recognized they went to sleep; the first emotion was panic. Followed by confusion, and then acceptance. Well as much acceptance as waking up in an new environment can get.
There wasn't much to do so I did what I could.. which was to wander.
And so my journey in Fero began. Blindly exploring the forest. Eventually I would stumble upon the catalyst for the beginning of my adventures.
A lone woman resting upon a tree trunk. Slowly bleeding out. Somewhat concerned for my safety I thought of leaving her there; but the Good Samaritan in me won out after a brief moment of indecision.
"Hey! Are you okay?!" I asked approaching with slow steps.
After hearing my voice the young lady seemed to have stirred and lifted her head up from the resting position it was in.
"Can you help me stand please?" She said in a voice that was slightly louder than a whisper. Then held out her hand.
I made it within arms length and V grasped her forearm, pulling her up with concentrated effort. Once my weight reached my back foot she came forward suddenly, throwing me off balance.
This interaction would color my adventures on Fero...
