Story of Intant

THE BEGINNING
In the vast beautiful swamplands, a frog was born, into a village cursed with knowledge. As a child, Intant Kaeru would go to school daily to learn various subjects and the mysteries of the world. Intant did not believe what he was taught, often would not pay attention during class sessions and would be sent out of class. His family became worried about him, and he realized the burden he has become to his family. The village knew of Intant's habits and often would ignore him, he had no friends to come to, no one to talk to. After a day strolling around the village, he came across a mysterious tree. The tree was mushroom-shaped and tainted with purple, nothing like any of the trees Intant has ever seen. He noticed a strange root that grew away from the tree... he followed. Intant Kaeru, the frog who lived in a village hidden in the swamps, was never seen again.

NEW LIFE
It was night, I felt droopy and have no idea what had happened. I was lying on the ground, I suppose I fell unconscious. Oh well. Looks like its night, my family is probably even more worried about me. Guess I'll head back.

The frog headed back to his village, forgetting about what had happened. He does not even remember the tree, which he followed.

How far away am I? This is odd, I don't remember going out this far... What was I up to? Doesn't matter anyways, not like the village is out looking for me.

Intant searched and searched for his village, his village was no where to be seen. After a long while, Intant headed to sleep and had given up searching for his village. He thought the village did not need him anyways.

It was morning, Intant had woken up and went to find something to eat. Often as a child, when he was thrown out of class for not paying attention, he would fish.

I haven't fished for awhile, guess it is time to go back to my old ways.

It didn't take long for Intant to realize he was somehow stranded on a spruce island, and not the swamp. He went to explore the lands with his objective to find a body of water to fish in. He traveled for days, passing various places. Stumbled upon the land of Iceland, off the coasts of Kumaur, traveling past various islands in the sea, before making his stop on a desert island in the middle of the ocean. He went to fish, but was quickly welcome by some outside force. Rain began to pour, and lighting began to smite objects around him. He knew he was not welcomed in his location, so he quickly ran off and began to explore some more. Afterwards, he settled onto a spruce island, much like the one he was on before. But before Intant prepared to fish, he noticed a mystical site. A sign from the one true god.

After days of exploration, I have never seen a site like this! The beauty, is this a sign of acceptance?

What bestowed upon Intant's eyes was an ocean, beautifully aligned with the sunset. In the waters spawned turtles, Intant didn't hesitate and went to swim with the turtles. This was nothing like Intant has ever experienced before, and was astonishing. Right away he knew, stuff like this doesn't happen out of no where, it is a sign. A sign by the water's spirits.

How have I pleased you? What have I done to deserve this beauty? All my life I have been nothing but a waste... What made me worth your beauty?

The ocean waves calmed, the stormy skies cleared, the ocean made itself clear. No, the gods of oceans made themselves clear.

A frog like me, is accepted into the arms of beauty such as you? The debt I have for your acceptance, is infinite. Protection to oceans I must enforce, the sea spreads love.

FINDING A HOME
It has been days since I have been able to call a place home. I did not know exactly where I should build my new home. I scavenged the island, found it was just a massive taiga biome, searched different islands to survive on, nothing. On my adventures, I stopped by plenty of islands, and even took time out of my adventure to spread word of the mighty Ocean Gods.

After a long adventure, Intant eventually ended his adventure. At first, he saw something truly amazing, and quickly made no assumptions other than the Ocean Gods themselves bestowing an image of beauty. On top of this beauty, was a city. A city called Hichi. It was home to a nation called Hinokuko Imperium. The nation welcomed me with open arms, and immediately I went to find a place to build my home, inside Hinokuko. But Hinokuko was having its own issues, not long after my arrival, Hichi, the capital city of Hinokuko, was griefed and looted. This sparked problems inside the nation, with our leader considering giving up leadership because of it, but this did not stop me from creating a new home, a new city.

NUMACHI
Numachi, or "Swamp" in Japanese, was founded by Intant Kaeru. Hinokuko was home to a beautiful swamp, knowing Intant Kaeru's background, it reminded him of home. The location in the swamp Intant chose was a beauty in itself.

Intant stumbled upon a sacred tree, made out of clay probably by an older tribe, or culture. He saw no sign of civilization, other than a few roads and bridges, just the sacred tree. Quickly, Intant knew this was the right location for his city, and established Numachi.
