I'd say my relationship with Reyna was very reassuring. Although I did fake my personality, a lot of it started to become genuine and I felt myself open up to her the more time we had spent together. Through all the bullshit I had to deal with in my personal life, she was always there for me in the end. We had only been together for 2 years, but that is still a long time in its own sense. Reyna was gorgeous, truly a sight to behold. It is what you'd expect the product of heaven and an angel to look like. Red flowing hair that was usually left in a ponytail, a creamy complextion and the most warm and inviting blue/gray eyes, it was actually like God had hand crafted a beauty that would be rivalled by none. She was about 5'6 in height and had a sort of hourglass body most girls would kill for, accompanied by the fact that she was blessed with a curvy shape. She was also one of the most gentle people you can meet, like gentle as in would not even hurt a fly. But that is when she is nice, when she's mad its the complete opposite. At times even I was scared when someone would piss her off, but I guess that's just the normal trait of all natural redheads. Naturally being booksmart, she grew in popularity quite fast. She was also just, the best person to talk to. Her soft giggles and blushes was an experience anyone would kill to have, but most of all she was loveable. You couldn't really hate her, only feel disappointed when something unexpected happened.
Now that I really think about it, this girl had a complete grasp of my heart. I won't blame her for leaving me, hell I can see where she's coming from. It's just she was the one I didn't want to lose, not after losing everyone else in my previous life. I guess that shock took me by surprise and made me run away, afraid to show her my vulnerability. If I had another chance with her, I would not let the same mistakes happen again, not ever again in a million years. But what has happened, happened, and now I was given a second chance at a life to amend my mistakes.
By the time I had learned to somehow manage with the breakup, I learned to crawl! Perfect for leaving the feelings for another day.
This was huge, I can now explore a majority of the house and go into the study to see what was being kept in there. The house was rather small, with a kitchen/dining room with a room off to the side I presume to be mines in a few months. We also had a hatch that led up to an attic, or at least I think it's an attic. I sometimes see my father go up there and come down after a while, but knowing him he could be doing all sorts of things. Like the other day he came home with what looked like a hybrid between a fish and a crab and THREW at my mother. What a strange man he is, apparently he didn't mean to throw it that hard at her but toss it so she could catch it. Safe to say she wasn't the only one to get hit with that thing.
I pushed the door open slightly to let myself pass through, and there was literally bothing in here beside gear and a table with 3 beefy books on it. I somehow managed to get on top of this chair which looked like it hadn't been sat on in years, but just when I was going to reach for the book mother walked in. "Sigh, you're just like your father. I can't leave you two out of my sight before one of you does something to hurt yourself" she said, shaking her head but with a wry smile.
Surprised, I started making sounds and pointed towards the pile of books. Worth a shot at least to have her help me either get closer or to do something before she takes me away. I guess she noticed I wanted to take a look at it because next thing I know is I'm on the floor with all these books infront of me. Leaving the room and implanting a kiss on my head before she left, the only thing between me and learning this magic stuff are these good old books. We all start somewhere, right?

Flipping the last page of the smallest book of the three, I get up and pace around the room, waking up my already asleep toddler limbs. The first of the books had been about the history of this world and revealed a lot which I needed confirmation on.
The continent we are in is of course Denora, which is monitored by the royal families, but is overall influenced by the Denora's. There are 4 regions that the royal families watch over; Humans, Elves, Demons, and Dwarves. There are a total of 4 royal families excluding the Denoras, who are classified as the Supreme Family. None of the races are in disagreement with eachother and are completely friendly, with them being spread out all throughout the continent. The family that watches over the humans are called the Clenva family, who are nutorious for their engineering skills. The Ratts watch over the demons, who are also known to be slightly stronger than the 4 races. Nothing seems to be special about them though, only that they are the strongest royal family. The Spoch watch over the elves and specialize in medicine, which compliments nature that the elves are the most in touch with nature. And finally the Flechins, the weakest of the 4, watch over the dwarves. They are the warriors of the families, but ironically the weakest due to them having only 1 child of their own.
The most interesting thing from all of this however are the Denora's. Sayun Denora, otherwise known as King Denora, is a hybrid between human and dwarf. He is known as the strongest swordsman to grace the continent, with only the royal family or very few adventures coming somewhat close to his innate strength and talent. Malia Denora on the otherhand, also known as Queen Denora, is a hybrid between demon and elf. Despite her being a demon, she isn't particulary that strong when compared to the other families, but her strongest combat aspect is her bond and her healing capabilities. They don't mention bonds anywhere else in the book, but I'm pretty sure one of these other 2 has to have at least some information on them. Besides that, we also are told there there is currently 1 heir to the Denora's, Malkovo Denora, the son of the Denora's.
There also exists a second continent which is very briefly mentioned, the continent of Ganshi. Supposedly they are an enemy continent which we are in "war" with, but nothing has actually been done from both sides. Still, it's interesting to know that there are other continents out there and that there does seem to be some bad blood, whatever the cause might be.
This word in general doesn't seem to be that technologically advanced, with most of the breakthroughs being mainly supplied by mana, the energy source needed to peform mana arts.
From what I have seen the last time I had went into Ramsworth, it does seem like there is a mixture between modern day Earth and almost barbaric-like medival customs. You can kill a man for attempting to rob you or harm you and you will be known as a hero or the like.
That's about it from the small book, basic background information which is very handy to have.
Crawling towards the next one conveniently placed besides it, I notice on the cover of the book that the date is different. I look back at the smaller one and notice that the date was the year 506, and on the other one its noted as 510.
So the small one is outdated by at least 4 years, if not more.
I take a glance at the 3rd book and notice that the date on that one is 507, meaning this one in the middle is the most recent.
This book is also entitled "Mana Arts: The Complete Edition", oh boy are we finally getting somewhere.
