The sun shown dimly in my attic room. I got up and opened my clothing chest and pulled out my wolfie outfit and put it on. Then I brushed out my hair. Today was the drawing of the caravaners held by the towns' crystal. It would start soon so I must rush. My family was probably already done getting ready and waiting downstairs so I walked down the stairs. As I guessed they were sitting on the couch.

"Let's go now Sini," My sister, Naomi said when I reached the last wooden stair.

I nodded and we walked out, since our house was so close to the crystal we only had to walk a few steps to get there. Everyone was crowded around the crystal we savored. The chief of the village, Mako stepped in front and cleared his throght and spook as everyone became silent.

"Hello everyone today as we all know is the crystal caravaners drawing. We will choose five randomly from the jar and each will go out in search of myrrh. Every person in the village between the ages of 15-21 is in the jar. The drawing will now begin!" The crowds cheered as he held up the jar and choose the first caravanner. "The first carrvaner is a clavat by the name of Joseph whom is the rancher's son!" A boy ran up to the crystal and stood proudly next to it. The Chief shook hands with Joseph. Then choose the next caravanner. "Next is yet another clavat by the name of Cecilia the farmer's daughter!" Cecilia ran up like the other Clavat and stood next to Joseph. "The third caravanner is a Selkie by the name of Sini the Alchemist's daughter!" I stood there unsure if he really called me or if it was someone else. I looked around and no one went up so it must be me. I slowly jogged up and stood by Joseph and the other two Caravanners smiled and shook my hand. The chief continued, "The fourth caravanner is a Lilty by the name of Sidney the merchant's daughter!" A small girl with a red mask on ran up and jump stopped next to me. "And finally the last caravanner is a Yuke by the name of Danielle the blacksmith son!" A tall boy with a helmet on ran quickly up and stood by Cecilia. "Now all of the caravanners have been chosen and we will end the drawing to give the hero's and heroins plenty of time to pack for they shall leave when the big bell rings which will be around noon. Farwell everyone!" The Chief ended his speech and walked away.

Noon gave me little time I ran to my family and my father spook, "You are a great warrior and will make us proud. I know it."

I always hate when he is so serious.

"I think that you will do great as well, but promise to write!" My brother, Fredrick chirped.

"Alright now I think we shall go home and pack," Mother reminded, "you only have until about noon, now let's go."

We walked back the few steps and me and my mother went upstairs because she would help. The door creaked as we opened it. I walked to the corner of the attic and grabbed a large sack. It seemed to be in good shape.

"This is a good sack to put my items in." I told my mother.

"Yes it is. I will be back in a second. Start packing, Okay?" Mother said.

"Yes," I said quietly.

I opened my chest and pulled out about five outfits and stuffed them in the sack then put 2 good pairs of shoes. I wasn't sure how long I'd be out there so I put a coat in too. I just couldn't believe I was chosen. I was both excited and nervous at the same time. I rolled up a blanket with a pillow in the middle and tied it with a rope. Then took a spear and set it by my saxk. I heard the door creak once again and my mother walked in with some things.

"What is that?" I asked pointing at the items she was holding.

"I have some medicine, gauze, some bread, and a water carton." My Mom answered.

"Oh…well I guess that may come in handy…" I said as she handed me the stuff and I put it in the sack.

At that moment the bell rung through the village.

I sighed and hugged my mother tightly and we stood up. I grabbed my sack and blanket and we ran downstairs. I gave each of my family members a hug and walked out with them following. I could see the other villagers stepping out of their houses too. I said goodbye and hugged them once more and ran over to the caravan where the other caravanners where and climbed inside with them.(the Lilty was driving the caravan) We waved to our families as the caravan started to go over the bridge. I set my blanket and sack in a corner and looked out the end of the caravan seeing the land we've past. I took a sip of water and sat down by Joseph and Danielle.

"Where to first?" I asked anyone who'd answer.

"The first place we reach," Joseph answered.
