The Voyage
I have left Huitcan settlements some time ago. Several days have passed since I've departed from the last port, and I was starting to run out of supplies, so I have sailed into an unknown bay and beached my ship on a peninsula. I could feel the warm, arid wind hitting my face almost immediately, there were glistening, white dunes all around, with nothing but a small palace by my side. It was 2 stories tall at most, but it had beautiful decorations and even some greenery on the walls, I decided to enter it to escape the hot sun of the desert.

The Vision
By the time I sat down, I became very tired, for the voyage has taken me days and I still could not find a home. My mission to settle a peaceful land was to no avail up until now. And in that very moment, as I was about to fall asleep on a carpet inside the palace, the sun began to shine tenfold harder, and I could see an even brighter sphere coming towards me, stopping me from falling asleep.

Then, a loud voice would speak to me and say: "I have come to You, Pikulik, for I am the true God, and You have been chosen to become sacred"

As i've stood up and looked in awe, the voice continued: "The people of Rathnir had forgotten their true creators, whom they shall worship. You will thus be given the knowledge and power of Gods to remind them of their deities."

As I gather my courage, only a few words come out of my mouth: "I shall do as You wish, please, enlighten and help me"

And then, the voice replied: "Your Homeland is not far from here. You shall sail along the river, and when you see the holy Dog, shining on a hill, you shall name it in your allies' language, and you shall settle there. Once you build your home, you shall come back to this holy temple, and your own shadow shall lead you to it."

Before I could say anything to the voice, the sphere had disappeared, and I had wasted no time, as I immediately got up and walked out of the palace.

The Homeland
I'd hurry to my beached vessel to quickly push it back into the water, and as I jump inside, I start to row quickly. In mere moments i exit the bay and I soon find myself in the middle of the river, I decide to row slower as I get tired from this speedy action. Now, when I finally start looking at my surroundings, the sun is shining into my eyes nearly blinding me. But then, a shade drops onto my boat, and as I look up, before me stands a small Dog, the one foretold by the voice.
