'I will not cry.' you tell yourself as you pick up the shovel and place it on your right shoulder.
The sun is shining high in the sky, the birds are singing, and you can hear all the little critters skittering about. The grass feels good on your bare feet as you trod forward, not letting anything distract you from your task.
'I will not cry. Momma says that crying is for babies and toddlers.' you tell yourself as the trees that line your path cast their shadows over you.
The wind feels good against your skin as you move along the well trodden path. The path you walk is not one you merely remember, it is one that has imprinted itself into your very being.
You can still see her now, her bright emerald locks tickling your nose as she holds you against her chest. She smelled of lilies and dandelions that day. She always changed it depending on the season. From roses to daffodils, you can recall every scent.
'I will not cry. Momma says that crying is for babies and toddlers, and I am neither of those no more. I am a grown, young adult now.' you tell yourself as you finally reach your destination. You raise the shovel, and set it into the soft dirt.
You push it in, pick it up, and toss it away.
Just like how Mama doe-
….How Mama did it.
By the time the sun has set over the cliffs behind you, and the land is covered in a blanket of shadows, your work was finished. You reached into the pack she gave you, and drew out a tiny pearl. It wasn't really anything special, just a normal, silky smooth, bright pearl that your mother had told you she had found in the woods one day.
She made you promise her that when the time came, you wouldn't bury her body, but this pearl instead. You weren't sure what she meant at the time, but you wouldn't disagree with your mother's last wishes.
You take one last entirely too short, look at the pearl. Then, you hold it over the grave you've dug, and drop it in. You stand there until you hear the jewel thump against the dirt at the bottom.
'I will not cry. Momma says that crying is for babies and toddlers, and I am neither of those no more. I am a grown, young adult now. I can take care of myself. And...that...means….I can't...cry' you tell yourself as wet droplets that are definitely not tears fall down your cheeks.
You stand there, listening to the night air as you think on your mother. The woman who raised you, fed you, and was your source of safety throughout your entire life.
She was your best friend.
She was your rock in the ocean of the world.
She was your Mama.
And now she's gone.
You do not collapse onto the ground, fist hitting the dirt rhythmically as you do not scream into the night air, uncaring of who or what might hear you.
You do not start to cry out the word 'Mama!' over and over again, until the sun comes up in the morning.
What you do do however is stand up from the soft ground, and wipe your arm across your face. You think some of the dust from the grave got in your eyes and you're trying to clean it out.
Satisfied, you look down at the grave, and smile.
'Thank you for everything you have done for me, Mama. I promise to be a good little child. Just like you would've wanted! Wait for me, Ok?' you mentally say to the grave. Mama was always good at reading your mind, you're pretty sure she heard you.
So you turn around and start to walk back to your home.
You've got some work to do.
And Mama didn't raise no slouch.

No limit to how many relations you have, but time is of the essence.
Goals:
With the advice of Sage ringing in my ears, I say that there are no definitive goals set for you guys. Oh yes, and I'm the one who created this world, so go out there and have some fun.
And yes, most of this I copy/pasted from AGG:ER. Please don't get mad Sage.
Couple of things before I begin:
-While I did create this world, and made the basics for it(factions, lore, etc.) some of this stuff I will be pulling out of my ass, but only if it makes sense for the world.
-This is my first Sage Quest, and I will admit I am not a very good writer.
-I owe all of the inspiration to Sage_Of_Eyes, Obsidian Noir, and any other user that has made a Sage Quest.

World Info:
If my memory serves there are currently three races in the world, the Mortals (Humans and Enhanced Humans), the Vampires and the Werewolves. Each of these races has three different factions that have split off from each other:
Mortals:
- The Tudor Kingdom: A Human Kingdom based around knights, chivalry and magic. At war with the Yemamid.
- The Yemamid Dynasty: A Human Shogunate based around technology, honor, and the Old Values. At war with the Tudor.
- The Phoven Empire: A long dead Empire brought back through the use of magic as an Undead Legion. Currently gathering their strength.
Vampires:
- The Nightlords: One of the oldest vampiric clans, and some of the most powerful. Doesn't very much care for the Horde.
- The Blood's Horde: A clan of vampires, fixated on one thing and one thing only; killing humans. They care for not except battle. Hate the Nightlords.
- The Moonlight Oblivion: Trust me sweetie, it's better if you know nothing about this faction.
Werewolves:
- The Silent Cave Pack: The oldest werewolf pack. Makes their home in the mountains. Currently gathering strength.
- The Lycan Woodland Pack: The werewolves who live closest to mankind. Make their homes in the woods. Currently gathering strength.
- The Sentinel Canines: These are-

Also, if you're wondering why I'm doing this by hand, the Vote Tally System seems to not work with my Macbook Pro.
Edit: Disregard the time limit. I'm gonna follow Sage's Example and wait two days.

I'll go by plan for this, and flip a coin to decide if it's Trine or Atresia.
Edit: Trine it is. I'll start righting the update.

Week 1

Week 1:
You awaken just as the first warm rays of sun shine onto your face. You smile as you jump out of your bed, plant your feet on the ceiling, then shoot back down next to the door. Your crack your neck with a satisfying sigh. Nothing like a bit of exercise to get the blood pumping!
You stretch for a bit, then sprint down the hardwood steps into the spartan kitchen you and your Mama built together. While she was the main one who made breakfast(how did she always get up before you?) you knew enough about cooking to feed yourself. You're a big girl after all!
You dig into your food as the birds outside begin to sing into the morning breeze. You always loved just sitting there with Mama, relaxing as the birds serenade you. It almost made you feel like a Queen in one of those old story books Mama used to read you.
You pause, the last bit of scrambled eggs falling from your lifted fork. But, she won't be able to read to you anymore, because-
You (mentally)slap yourself. 'No! No! No crying! Mama would want me to be strong!' With slightly less enthusiasm, you finish off your meal and step out onto the veranda.
With Mama…..gone, the Homestead is your responsibility now. You're sure you'll be fine. Mama was able to keep this place up all by herself with little help from you.
That doesn't mean she let you stay idle. Far from it, she took you with her everytime she went out to do maintenance on the place. She said she, "Wanted to make sure you were ready." You're guessing she meant to care for this place.
With the two of you, the work was a breeze really. Make sure the farm animals are in their proper place, pull out any weeds that pop up, and make sure that predators stay as far away from the place as possible. Looking at it now, you won't really have to worry about anything really terrible happening for about 5 months at the least.
Of course, you don't necessarily have to stay here.
You feel a sharp tug on your heart at the thought, but it is true. While your mother did train you to keep this place up to snuff, that doesn't mean that she wanted you to continue to live here. The Homestead has been your whole life. Waking up in the morning and cutting down the wheat with the side of your hand like Mama showed you, pumping water from the well, sleeping in your fluffed up bed.
But, that's the thing. It's been your whole life. You look down the straight path that leads away from your house, heading North. Not once have you ever seen the end of that walkway, or if it even has an end. Your mom had gone down there plenty of times, but she never once brought you. The first time you tried to leave, Mama was there to drag you back home.
She never yelled, but the look she gave you….you stopped trying after that.
Now, however….
Almost on cue, you hear sounds start to come from the stables. You're pretty sure you could take one of them with you. It would definitely help the journey. You would still come back of course, just not very often depending on the circumstance.
You place your hand against your chin in thought as the wind blows about your figure.
You have to make the choice now.
[] Leave, and go looking for high adventure! Your mother will understand, and you'll make sure to visit as often as you can!
[] Stay, and keep this place running on your own! It doesn't matter what's going on out there, you're needed here.
