Roi POV

It was not long ago that we were forced to leave our homes.Many of us lost the means to live when they had come by. I still remember that dreadful day when they came. While many lost their loved ones and family in that ordeal.

I for one that day lost everything my mother and father I was the only one left.

Our town, though small was lively, quaint,simple and fun, many people rushing in and out of the city, men hunt for stag and fowl in the forest as means of survival some even spare them and feed them in hopes that they reproduce while using quick growing wild grass as fodder.

Though only a few escaped mostly young children and several people close to my age, none of the older ones were left alive since the survivors stated that several women and children were taken and men and others were killed or burned along with the town.
