As soon as I leave the sanctuary, what appears in my vision are ruins.

The structure of marble completely destroyed, buildings in pieces, statues shattered, as if there had been a war in that place.

This place must have great historical value… My imagination is really fertile today.

The priestess continues to carry me as she follows a small marble road.

Looking back, I see a new priestess entering the temple, as if she is waiting for that moment.

At that moment, the girl who carries me, brings her face close to me and says something, but, again, I cannot understand her.

What kind of language is that? I’ve never heard it before!

Well, as the girl turned her attention back to the path again, I decide to analyze myself.

In the first place… Just what happened to my peripheral vision?!

In addition to what was in front of me, I can easily observer the surroundings.

In fact, what are these strange colors in the air?

They are few, but I can observe them. As I don’t understand what the colors are, I decided to live it alone.

And what is that in front of my face? A beak?

After conforming that I have a beak, I finally come to the conclusion that I am a baby chicken.

I could have thought of other birds, but in my memory, only chicks are born with so much fur.

In a way, it’s very strange experience…

Wondering what I did to be in this situation, my memories start to come back…

[…]

It was a cloudy day.

The whole week was cloudy…

I don’t remember what time it was, but it soon started to rain.

A light summer rain, to which I used my umbrella to protect.

While walking, going somewhere I don’t remember, I found the municipal library and decided to stop there.

As I was not looking for any specific book, I decided to just go through the bookcases and find something interesting.

The only thing that caught my attention was a black cover book written “Death Book”, but since there was nothing written in it, I decided to put it aside.

While I continued walking, I found an old man struggling to get a book.

- Would you like me to help you? – I asked.

The old man looked at me strangely, as if he didn’t expect anyone to come to help him.

Well, the library was practically empty, so it was normal to be suspicious.

- Please, help me to get this book – He says in a hoarse voice.

As soon as he accepts my help, I go to him and pick up the book.

The book he was interested in was biology.

- Say, boy, do you like biology? – He asked me.

- Hm? Yes, it was my favorite high school subject. – I answered reflexively.

- What part of biology do you like best? – The old man continues with the questions.

- …I believe I prefer the study of ecosystems?

I really wasn’t sure what I was answering, but the old man seemed to like that answer.

- Thanks, I’m really enjoying learning about this world… - He says that before he goes.

What a strange old man… Well, I think I should go.

The rain had calmed down and I had no reason to stay there anymore.

But, as soon as I was leaving, the old man called me.

- Boy, would you like to live something new?

- No.

Such an offer was very suspicious out of nowhere, so I reflexively answered no.

- Aren’t you interested in having a new experience? – He continues.

- Sorry old man, but I did Proerd! (Proerd is a program against drugs in Brazil.)

This was getting weirder and weirder, so I just decided to speed up my step outside.

For some reason, the person who attended the library looked at me strangely for a moment, before becoming desperate.

- Watch out! – The person screams.

When I turned to look, I noticed one of the bookcases was falling over me.

Reflexively, I tried to protect myself with my arms, but ended up buried by the books and the bookcase.

Despite the pain of the blow, no bones seemed to have broken.

With some effort and help from the librarian, I managed to get out from under the bookcase.

After that, he helped me to sit on a small bench in the corner of the library.

- I’ll call the ambulance, wait a minute. – He says before going to the reception.

As soon as he left, the old man appeared again.

- My friend, it seems that your life is coming to the end… - He says looking sad.

- What are you talking about? I just hurt myself a little. – I replied, not understand what was going on in his mind.

- So, if you want to survive, I have a proposal. – The old man continues, not caring about my comments. – I will give you another life, one where you can explore new ecosystems that you never imagined…

- Sir, could you get away from me? – I asked while getting up.

I don’t want to talk to that old man anymore…

But, at that moment, the old man reclined on the wall and slid to the floor. It was like he had lost almost all energy in his body.

- Boy, could you accept a thank you gift for earlier? – He says with a little difficulty, before raising his arm and showing a necklace.

It was a golden necklace, with the symbol of a transparent crystal Rooster attached to it.

I really didn’t understand anything anymore, but it looked like the old man was desperate for me to accept the necklace.

- Okay… I’ll accept it.

Seeing the old man’s condition, he would probably be taken by ambulance, so I could easily return the necklace at that point.

So I decided to use the necklace in front of him, just to relieve his stress.

I just hope he doesn’t try anything else now…

As I watched the old man, for some reason, my vision started to blur.

- Boy, this necklace is where your memories will be and will be your connection with all the places you will visit.

The old man says, while his voice seems to be disappearing.

- I don’t know what fate reserve for you has, but it will certainly be something you’ve never experienced.

I could no longer hear his voice, but I could understand what he was saying.

- Maybe it’s my hasty decision, but… This is what will make things more fun.

I could see a faint smile on his face, making me want to punch him.

- Your reality will change suddenly but try to remain yourself.

I couldn’t see anything anymore, and I just heard his last words.

- Good luck, my chosen one.
