The World of Gaia (Novel)

The Village of Randla

The Village of Randla

Jan 23, 2026

Forty-two days before the journey between Barga and Barma.

Alex: Ok bye mum, bye dad, I’m going to the village of Randla to find a cart going to the City of Barma, so see you next time. 

Xavier: Yes, likewise, but be careful, alright my dear son.

Alex: Of course, dad, but stop with all that sentimentality, I don’t like it at all, okay.

Marbella: Take care, okay, my son.

Alex: Yes, mum.

Alex: Goodbye, and see you next time, my parents.

Marbella: Goodbye.

Xavier: Goodbye.
(Crying)

Thirteen days after leaving the City of Barga.

Alex: Ok I finally arrived at the village of Randla.

Alex: Hey sir, do you know where I can find a cart that goes to the City of Barma???.

Sir / Pedro: I don't know, but the village elder should know.

Sir / Pedro: But by the way, where are you from and what is your name.

Alex: My name is Alex, and I am from the City of Barga.

Sir / Pedro: Ok, so you are from Barga, now it's my turn to introduce myself, my name is Pedro.

Pedro: By the way, since you are from Barga, why didn't you look for a cart there.

Alex: The thing is that out of nowhere the carts stopped going to my City, you know, that's the problem.

Pedro: Ah, ok I understand, but I think I remember wanting to know why this is happening.

Pedro: Ah, yes, it turns out I just remembered, this happens because a group of Bandits set up a base on the road mainly used for transporting people, but the commercial route remained intact, though apparently the cart drivers don't want to use this road as it is a shorter path, which causes people to pay less.

Alex: Seriously, just because of that, for money, nothing else if that's the case then I wasted my time for nothing.

Alex: Ok, I'll go see the elder, no problem, right.

Pedro: No, of course not, he doesn't mind, you just go there and ask if he knows of any carriage nearby that is going to the City of Barm, isn't that right, my dear.

Alex: Yes, I think so and I hope so, so until we meet, bye.

Pedro: bye.

At the door of the village elder's house.

(Knock Knock Knock)
Elder of Randla Village / Rafael: Yes?

Alex: It's me, I came to ask for directions, sir Elder.

Elder of Randla Village / Rafael: Come in and let's introduce ourselves properly, please.

Alex: Yes, of course, sir.
(Alex opens the door and enters the Elder's House of Randla / Rafael)

Elder of the Village of Randla / Rafael: Don't just stand there, come here and sit on the chair in front of me, then tell me everything about yourself and I will tell you everything about me.

Alex: Yes sir, my name is Alex, I am from the City of Barga, I am twelve years old and I can't say whether I am a Lower or Higher Human since my Father is a Lower Human and my Mother is a Higher Human, besides, I wanted to find a Cart to the City of Barma, Sir.

Elder of Randla Village / Rafael: Ah, so you are an interesting Intermediate Human.

Alex: What???.

Elder of Randla Village / Rafael: Nothing, forget it.

Alex: Ok, sir.

Elder of Randla Village / Rafael: Don't call me sir, my name is Rafael, and as you can see I am a Goblin, more specifically a Lesser Goblin, I was born in the village of Randla, I am 31 years old, besides having three lovely daughters and a beautiful wife, moreover I am the elder of the village and the son of the previous elder. Rafael: So, you want to go to the city of Barma, ok I will take you to a cart driver, that's what you want, right???.

Alex: Yes, Sir.

Rafael: I already told you not to call me sir, please call me by my name.

Alex: Ok, sir Rafael.

Rafael: You still used the word sir in that sentence but it's fine, at least you also used my name. 

Rafael: Let's go see the cart driver.

As they approached the village cart driver.

End of Chapter 5.
