To all of you who have sown smiles along my Path. F. J.
To Marina, for putting up with me. M. R.
The Druid’s Path Fer Jimenez
…AND THE BRIGHT IDEAS CALL ME AMONG THE HAZE OF OAKS AND CHESTNUTS, BEYOND THE STARS PATH WHERE THE WIND BLOWS AND THE SUN DIES EVERY DAY.
THIS WILL BE THE SAGA STARTING THE LEGEND, A LEGEND ABOUT DRUIDS WANDER OTHER LIVES AND GO OVER THE WAYS OF THE PATH…
¿WHAT DO YOU SAY I T’S THE PATH?
THE ORIGINAL PATH IS A TELLURIC ROAD. I T’S MADE UP OF THE VI TAL EARTH POINTS, WHERE THE FORCE OF THE ELEMENTS IS CONCENTRATED.
I T’S LUGH’S MOTHER…
WHEN AM I GOING TO MEET HER?
… THE BREAD YOU EAT, THE LEAVES YOU STEP ON, THE RAIN THAT WETS YOU…
THE STARS SAY YOU ARE READY TO LIVE I T AT LAST.
TOMORROW WE WILL LEAVE FOR HOME.
SO YOU CAN START GIVING THANKS TO LUGH FOR THE FRUI TS YOU EAT OR THE WATER YOU DRINK.
CONTROL YOUR POSI TION, ARGENTO. THE POSI TION OF YOUR FEET IS ESSENTIAL.
NEVER LOSE SIGHT OF YOUR OPPONENT, BOY.
YOU HAVE A LOT TO LEARN! ARGENTO!
ALTHOUGH YOU HAVE THE RAVEN WISDOM…
YOU’VE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN TO SCARE TWO KIDS.
THAT’S ENOUGH!
THE IMPORTANT THING OF THE LESSON YOU LEARN TODAY IS TO NEVER GIVE IN….
DON’T GIVE I T IMPORTANCE. YOU ARE STILL YOUNG AND KYPRUS IS OUR BEST WARRIOR.
FERRO, KEEP PRACTISING WI TH THE SWORD.
YES, SIR.
AND YOU, BOY…
THE MAN WHO WANDERS OUTSIDE, HEARS THE SWEETEST MUSIC WHEN COMING BACK HOME.
…THE MOMENT TO START YOUR TRAVEL WILL COME SOON.
... SOON YOU WILL BECOME MEN AND WE’LL NEED YOU.
