I Get A Journal!

Waking up with the roosters crowing and animals sturing Nora finally realized that she is not dreaming. Sitting up she remembered what happened yesterday and the days before. Waking up by mansion, waking for eternity and then reaching a cave. Finding a necklace that emitted a cold that was not like anything else she had ever felt before. Then she walked into a wheat field. Talked to a lovely father and daughter. Now she was here in a bed in a farmhouse.

She reached for the satchel. She searched for the necklace she had found in the cave. The necklace felt cold to the touch. She put it on carefully. After putting on the necklace she reached for one of the books that were in her satchel.

After fondling with the book, Nora found out she had no idea in hell what language this was. The closed thing she could think of was the Dragon language from that one popular RPG.

The noise from Nora moving about woke up Elizabeth. Elizabeth trying to find the source of the noise find Nora looking utterly confused at a book in her hand.

"Nora do you not know how to read?"

"Umm i think i do but i've never seen a language like this before."

"Here ill see if I know it"

Nora hands her the book. The instant shock and dismay upon Elizabeth looking at the book didn't give Nora any hope of Elizabeth knowing it.

"I have no idea that this writing is, where did you get this book?" Elizabeth asked

"I got it from the house i woke up in"

"Ok, maybe my father knows about it, he is very knowledgeable"

"Ok that would be nice knowing what's in here"

"But before we do anything we should really wash your dirty clothing."

Elizabeth gave Nora a change of clothes for her to work in while her regular clothes were not available. They both walked down stairs and Elizabeth walked her through the house. They walked to the well and started to talk.

"So Nora where did you get these" she pointed to Nora's clothes

"Well when i uh woke up it was all ready on me."

"Nora when we go to the city in a month you will need to wear a cloak or something to cover up those odd clothing. Father could probably help you out with that"

"ok, Thanks Elizabeth"

"please call me Liz, Elizabeth sounds so… formal"

"You know that sentence sounded formal Elizabeth."

"shut up..." Liz growled

"Ok. Ok. should we head into the house soon?"

"Yes we should."

They finished up washing their clothes and put them onto a clothes line. Nora and Liz headed into the house. Charles was waiting inside getting prepared to get to work and show what Nora would be doing for the month she would be staying with them.

"Well did Elizabeth help you clean your clothes Nora" Charles asked

"Yes she did"

"Dad I think with Nora's odd clothing that we may need to get her a coat so that she doesn't stand out… well stand out as much as she could help it" pointing to her black hair with violet highlights.

"Yes, I will figure that out soon.

Charles showed Nora around the farm and explained what she would be doing for the month. Nora would help collect eggs from the chickens, help with dinner, water the crops, and the list goes on and on. Nora knew she would be tired to the bone every single day, but she still had a smile on her face. Nora really hadn't had a job like this before. Honest work was in front of her, work that would be tiring but rewarding all at the same time.

After a hard day of work the sun had decided to finally fall. The night creeped onto the farm like a shadow. They sat down for supper and ate.

"Umm Charles if you wouldn't mind do you have a book and pen i could have?" Nora asked shyly

"Ummm somewhere we should have a journal and a pen you could use."

"After supper I'll go look for it for you" as he said that he gave a warm smile to Nora.

Right before going to bed Charles walked through the door and handed Nora a book and pen.

On the book had the name Angelica. Realizing who owned journal was looked at it with a sad expression.

After a couple of seconds Nora started to write.

Day 1

9/12/1901

The last couple of days have been... how do i put it, odd would be an understatement. I started waking up on the grass in front of a burned down mansion. Exploring the mansion I found clothes that would never match this time period any time period to precise. I also found a staff with what I presume to be a family crest, the clothes also have this crest. After all this, the only thing I could think to do was to move forward. So i decided to just walk.

After countless hours I found a cave that emitted a coldness like a fridge. Exploring inside I found a necklace that I now wear wherever I go. The next day, I started to walk again. Right before it turned night again i found a home in which the people who lived in the house were the nicest people ever.

They helped me wash my clothes. Let me have this journal that i am writing in. and gave me a job so I could earn some money. The job was rough... but i can only go up from here.
