Chapter 1- Watchful Eyes

Notes: This entire story will be in author's POV.

Topic: Rune Factory (Frontier)


Some things are just impossible to understand...


Raguna was just going about his regular schedule which involved watering his crops, getting rid of weeds, rocks, twigs, and other unnecessary farmland things. His schedule also involved going around and greeting the villagers or getting to know some new ones, unless he was sick of course.

It was all fine and dandy the first three years that he's been in Trampoli. He made some wonderful friends, got to know some people more, befriended monsters, and conquered some fears, and danger, along the way. Then he began to notice something odd...It started near the end of summer (He didn't notice it right then) when he went to go visit his neighbor, Eric, he wanted to talk to him about farming. And that's what he did...

-Summer 23rd-

It was a sunny day and Raguna was just making himself some breakfast. He couldn't decide on what to have. He had a lot of vegetables, from different seasons and places, and had no idea what to make.

"I could make myself some eggs...that would be good." He thought. "But then again I've had that for the past three days..." He had been in a hurry to get the day started so he made the easiest thing, and the fasted, to make. Which was eggs and orange juice. But today was different. It was near the end of summer, and he had harvested all of his crops, so there was no point in preparing any new ones.

"Hm..." He thought. Then it came to him. He could make some french toast with a side of strawberries and pineapple. His stomach growled at the thought of the outcome.

"Well, better get started." He thought.

It was only after he ate, and cleaned up, that he decided to go to Eric's farm.

He was walking across the bridge and down the path. It wasn't that far to get to Eric's...actually he could see him perfectly from his own farm. If he was in the right place that is...

"Hm...I can see him now actually." He thought. He then called out his name.

"Hey! Eric!" The man turned around at the sound of his name. Once he saw Raguna he grinned. The boy was a wonderful friend and good company. So, stopping what he was doing, he waited for him to come over.

"Hello Raguna, how are you this morning?" He asked. Raguna smiled. It had taken a lot, surprisingly, to get Eric to say his name instead of Young Man, or Boy, whenever they greeted each other. He was glad when he finally got through to him.

"Nothing much, just going to spend the day talking to everyone else and relaxing. It's almost the end of summer so there's no point in farming right now." He said. Eric nodded.

"Yes, that's true. I'm almost done with my crops, some started late due to the cold I had last week, but they'll be ready before summer ends." He said, then he thought of something. "Would you like to help?"

Raguna nodded, "Yeah, I'd love to. I also need to talk to you for some farming information." He said. Eric nodded, "Well, I'll be happy to assist." Then they started. They didn't notice a pair of eyes watching them from across the way.

"Hm..." Was all the person said. They then turned around and went into their house.


SilentAngeli: Well, if you've played or watched videos of Rune Factory Frontier, it's kind of obvious to who was watching Raguna and Eric. After all there are only two houses in the Southern District.
