The Traveler: An Episodic Story based on True Events

[Inspirational175]

Prelude:
- The Traveler is basically a story about my (Germanicus Laventimus) travels from the beginning to whenever I decide to end my travels. The story is true. Please read, there will be a new episode everyday; some may be long and some short, but feel free to post constructive criticism or whatever you feel when reading the story.

Episode One: Life Changing Decisions
- The Traveler was not always a traveler; he was once a bored farmer plowing the lands staked out by his forefathers and this is where our story begins. The Traveler was sick of farming day in and day out with nothing else to do besides farming related things. The Traveler who at this point was just The Farmer told his wife, The Cook that he no longer wanted to farm and she was shocked. The Cook said to him "You hillbilly you, you bought me from the man in the city to help you farm and now you don't want to do it anymore? I could of been something, maybe bought by a rich man if you didn't buy me to basically be your cooking and cleaning slave..." The Farmer replied "Well why don' yah pack up yer belongins an' leave then yeh dirty tramp? I was gonna leave yah this beauteefl house and lan' if I lef', but since yeh don't wan' it why don' yah bug off and I'll he give it to tha' cow!!!" They both packed up and went their separate ways leaving the cow in charge of enough land for a small kingdom or a small country such as the AD Union.

Episode Two: Operation Supply
- The Farmer has finally become The Traveler, leaving his old life behind. With this in mind he hops in his rowboat and departs from his land after wishing The Cow good luck running the farm and taking care of all the other animals. The Cow moos at him in a sad tone and walks away from The Traveler with his rowboat ready to depart. The Traveler finally leaves his farm and almost all of his worldly possessions believing he has done the right thing. When The Traveler passes his Japanese neighbors, he can't help but stop and leave them a note so The Traveler does. The Traveler hops out of his boat along the shores of Shimamaru and carves out a runestone ofthe nearest rock, the runestone says "Watashi wa watashi-tachi ga motte ita tatakai no tame mōshiwake arimasen." The Traveler departs after leaving this message with a tear in his eye, even though those Japs and him fought all the time he still secretly liked them with their hilarious antics such as stealing his boats. The Traveler finally departs and heads south following the river until he reaches The Lake of No Return; legend has it that once you cross this lake you'll never see what you were coming from again. The Traveler gets out leaving all of his chests behind and crosses the huge amount of land by foot between him and the supplies allocated to him by Gvozd Davorov of Buyan. He does not look back.
