What Mynos Saw
New Sand for Old Glass, Prequel No. 1
NEW SAND FOR OLD GLASS: First Prequel
It's the year 800 and Mynos lives in his family's old home with his pet-wolf and pet-sheep. Their family was a staple of a growing farming-community in Southwest Finland. Now there's two of them left. Now, middle-brother Veros is the only one still looking after Mynos. Mynos is the town's shaman, a restless artist who acts as a bridge between people who see him either as clueless, or pure-at-heart.
Tragedies have almost wiped out Mynos and Veros' family. Mynos refuses the older brother's torn-by-the-wild outlook, and secrets unravel as to how everybody got the way they are, while Mynos just... sits there. Sits there and carves, sits there and paints, sits there and talks, sits there... and wonders if he means anything at all.
In his years as the town's top artist, Mynos has had the chance to brush up against all matter of proud people, but all that those experiences have provided him -- all that anything seems to provide him -- is making his introspection merely intensify.
He wants to love.
He refuses to hate the nearby owls as much as the Village Master does.
He wants something that's made here in the close corners of his cold house, to stand the test of time. To have something to show for all these moments alone in his room. To live on, after he dies.

Über die Autorin
I'm a 25-year-old writer and 26 soon.I collected 12 surviving characters from old stories and added a fantasy-element. This is my first time ever writing magic! Hopefully you'll feel as fulfilled reading it as I did writing it!
