Enjoy it now:) Bonus chapter, epilogue, call it like that or something, it's a mix of both (though not pure of either).
His eyes opened. He saw the human boy's face and his blue-grey eyes. The boy everyone called Arahael and he remembered him as such. But he didn't know how was it possible he could remember the boy's name.
He could see everything around himself. The works of human upper legs, the legs on which they didn't walk, but used for holding things, similarly to how he would hold a bone or the meat of the animal he hunted in the forest. But they used those "hands" of theirs much more. They used them always. Always. But the strangest thing to him was that he even remembered that is called a hand, or that the humans use it always. They never do anything without them.
He raised his eyes to someone else. It was Arahael's brother, Brandon. The same grey-blue eyes and dark hair. It surprised him again that he knew the young human's name at all. He remembered that their father's name was Aramir. He saw other people around himself. He saw humans carrying things that had the color of stone during the night. They called it iron, and they made things they called swords, axes and spears from it.
Six of them. There are six of them. He remembered all six of them, after he saw Túrin, another of them, once again. He saw them every day. All of them or half of them. What surprised him again was that he remembered their names. They were in his memory.
Arrana, the female. The only female in the pack, beside the mother. he remembered. He saved her and Arahael from that evil man in the cloak. The others he remembered were Isaiah, Túrin, Brandon, Minardil and, of course Arahael, and their mother, Yelena. Aramir is the father. He is the leader of the pack.
He heard the name: Red Snake. He hated snakes. The snake once bit him when he was a pup. It almost killed him.
Wait, how do I remember that? he thought again. He was thinking. Some time ago, he had memories, but they were vague and they couldn't come out of nowhere, but after something precise happening. But everything changed. After that bear attacked him in the woods, he was not the same again.
He was different after that. He could feel he was different. He was thinking. When the humans would speak the words, he could understand what they are saying. He couldn't talk. He so much wanted to talk. To use his mouth and tongue like they used it. But he couldn't.
He looked around. He could see all the colors. Some that he never saw in his life. He had memories of the hunt with his father and brother, before his entire pack died and he was left alone of it. The lone wolf. He was alone after that. But no longer. He belonged to the new pack. They called themselves the Gondors.
He could not understand what happened to him. He was aware of everything happening around him. He remembered what he felt when he saved Aranna and Arahael. He felt something. He didn't want to allow them to die. He felt as if he is going to lose a part of himself if he let them die. He thought that he will weep like humans weep if they die. He saved them. Then he remembered what he did to the man. He felt regret for having to kill him. Never before did he ever felt that, but now he did. He was sorry he had to kill him.
All of that changed after that bear. What happened to me? What do I feel? He was thinking the whole time. He felt strangely. He could feel himself. He could feel his own thoughts and his own feelings. He looked at the humans. He knew them. He could see feelings in their eyes. Since he fought the bear, he felt what he never felt before. It was painful, yet at the same time beautiful. He knew everything around himself. He knew himself and he knew the others or wanted to know them. He no longer thought of food, shelter and place where to mark his territory. He was now thinking more and deeper. He couldn't know without use of human words.
I exist. he thought. I feel. I know. I...am.
When he was young, his pack called him Grey One. But Arahael gave him a name.
I am Galbart.
Author's Note: There, it's over. The first part is over. This was quite a journey, at least for me, even thought it was the first part. I really thank you that you all took the time to read this first part of the entire story. If you can, please review and tell me what do you think of it and do you like it. I am really sorry that I was a slow writer. These are 42 chapters, and they took long time to write. Thank you for all the patience that you had with me about that. I hope that presence of religion and religious themes wasn't bothering or too much in the face or similar. When I was writing, I wanted to give the first part of the story the mix of the Disney and Game of Thrones feel. The reason there are many similarities in the story with the first book/season of the A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones. I hope I did it the good way. I also tried to make the characters from Disney fit their personality as faithfully to the original as it was possible. But I don't think I did a very good job about that one. Flynn might be the best example of that. The rest of the story will have a fairly more original plot, with the mixes from Frozen 2 and other things, both Disney and non-Disney. Three things that I would really like to ask you and for which the answers I would really appreciate are these: 1. Is Robin a Mary Sue or not? Did I write him that way? I am afraid I gave him little more help than I should have and I really don't want him to be a Mary Sue. So please answer this. 2. Is Elsa and Isaiah's relationship rushed or is it okay? Obviously, it is supposed to develop more later on in the story into the romantic relationship, but I really want to know if their friendship that is starting is solid or not? I myself always roll my eyes on the "love at first sight" and when characters talk just three or four times and then they're together, so it really matters to me to know if this is solid or not.
3. Is the story rushed or not? While writing and reading the last few chapters I asked myself this. I don't like a story to be shorter than it should be, I remember one particular show that had a rushed last season (I am pretty sure you know what show I am talking about). It really matters to me as well. Please answer at least these three questions. It's just a little of your time, but means a lot to me. I am not sure when will the second part be published. Differently from this part, I intend to first write the whole or majority of it and then publish it, on Ao3 and Quotev as well. I will have many duties and things to do in life. But I will write this. I will finish this story to the end. The beginning is finished. I am happy I finished it. The foundation is set, and now I have to build the rest of the house. It will not be easy or short, but it will be easier now with the foundation set. I hope you will all follow me in this journey through this story and I will put effort to do it to the end. I will finish it (getting repetitive here:). Thank you so much again, leave favs, follows, reviews, theories and etc. I will see you after some time.
Bye:)
