The mudokon was near a hut, dragging on Jakun.
"Aalie?!" she shouted.
"What?" a voice from inside answered.
"Make a healing potion, we have a guest." she said and came in with Jakun through the door. The small dragon-like thing looked at him.
"Uhm, Nabea. Thats not one of us!" he said with a bit of scottish accent.
"Yeah, i know. But i couldnt just leave him out there. Just, put some of our berrys in boiling water, quickly!"
"Alright, but i know how this will en up. All the normal mudokons will hunt us down and kill us. Atleast the two of us..."
Nabea managed to drag him up onto a small bed made of grass in the corner of the room.
"When the potion is done, just let it cold a minute or so. I will go back for the berrys."
"WHAT?!!" Aalie shouted. "You left the berrys? How could you? I thought you loved me!!"
"Very funny..." Nabea mumbled as she walked out the door.
Jakun opened his eyes. His leg hurted alot, but he was warm and probably not dead.
"Where am i?" he weakly asked. A mudokon stood over him.
"Oh, good morning, guest. Are you hungry, thirsty or does it hurt anywhere?" the mudokon asked.
"My leg hurts..." he mumbled.
"Its broken. Dont move! That would only make harm."
"Where am i?" he asked again.
"Dont worry, you are in a hut in the woods. As soon as your leg is healed, i will send you back to your village."
Jakun nodded and looked at Aalie who was in the middle of eating a berry.
"Whats that?" Jakun asked and pointed at him.
"Thats Aalie, my secretkeeper. I know its a stupid name, but he is just a friend who holds your secrets."
Aalie looked at Jakun.
"G´mornin guest. What´cha name?"
"What did he say?" Jakun asked.
"I said, what is your name?"
"Jakun." he said.
Nabea looked up from whatever she was doing.
"Interesting name, Jakun. Do you know what it means?"
"No."
"It means 'the lonely'. I dont know who got up with that.."
Jakun spended the rest of the day with just looking around, and sleeping.
And here comes the parts where nothing happens....
