Meridion Island

The view of the island of Meridion was clear from their tide, the longer it was, the bigger the island was seen.

You can see the port city from the direction of the boats, many ships leaning on the harbour.

Meridion Island is located in the south of the island regia, the island of Meridion is divided into two. namely, East Meridion and West Meridion. Whichever port has been seen is the port of Lavrin. Lavrin Harbor is the busiest port in East Meridion.

Long ago, after the collapse of the ancient kingdom in Centrical City. Magicians, alchemists, and others simultaneously moved south. They sailed to the island of Meridion. don't know what their reasons are so they migrate to Meridion Island. Then after several years of their migration, the magicians founded a magic city, and from a magic city to a magic kingdom until it became as big as it is now. Even a magic academy was set up there.

The saying goes "a magician should at least set foot on the island of Meridion". There it is. Meridion Island has become an iconic island for witches. All items needed for magic needs must be on the island of Meridion.

It is not imagined that the island of Meridion is known by people as the island of witches. All the great and famous magicians graduated from the magic academy on the island of Meridion.

However, due to a conflict, the island of Meridion which was originally controlled by one kingdom, namely the Meridion kingdom, has now split into two, namely West Meridion and East Meridion.

So that the residents of East Meridion and West Meridion have a feud. As a result of that, the magic academy moved to the middle. And not ruled by the kingdoms of the two. This was a deal because they didn't want to because a country's conflict resulted in the academy being disrupted.

Finally, their boat arrived at Lavrin harbour. Usually, fishing boats or small boats dock at the jetty east of the port.

There too, the ship parked officers were seen. Uncle Merton turned the sail so that the boat leaned in the right position. After feeling the position of the boat leaned exactly. Uncle Merton anchored the boat. Then he twirled a rope like a cowboy stunt. Then he threw the rope at the port officer. The officer caught the rope, then tied the rope to an iron stick that was on the dock.

Finally, the three of them got off the boat one by one. First Uncle Merton to get out of the boat. He set foot on the dock. Then he reached into his pocket, he gave some copper coins to the officer.

"Ah, Merton, this time I'll make it free for you." Said the officer with a smile, as if he didn't need money.

"Very unusual, do you get the lottery again?". Uncle Merton teased the officer a little.

The officer pushed Merton's hand as if he was refusing payment for parking the boat, saying ", ahh ... Never mind, just keep the coins."

Because the officer did not receive coins, Merton's uncle asked, "Are you rich now?".

"Hahaha, that's not it. I don't know why today so many boats have docked here, just look! Boats are everywhere. Even big ships too". The officer explained the reason clearly. Because most boats and boats lean. He got a lot of coins.

Hearing what the officer said, Jim, muttered. "These must be the residents who escaped."

"Yes, if that's what you want". Uncle Merton replied as he put the coin back in his pocket.

"Yes, what I need now is not money, but time to rest." The officer seemed to complain that he was tired after helping to dock the ship.

"You, got a windfall, instead of being happy, complained," said Uncle Merton teasing the officer.

The officer only showed a tired face and scratched his head a little.

Finally, Merton's uncle led them to his house. When on the way, the port is so crowded, the streets are filled with people with faces of despair and no direction. They appeared to be refugees who had fled from Centrical City. The harbour that day was crowded with many people.

Lavrin Harbor is a dense and narrow city. The port is surrounded by forests and mountains to the south. Because this port is a portal for the entry and exit of the magic goods trade next to the East Meridion.

"All right, you follow me," said Uncle Merton to Jim and Aya. Then they both followed Uncle Merton behind.

Uncle Merton's house was not far from the pier. Only walking about 1.2 kilometres had reached Uncle Merton's yard.

Uncle Merton led to a crossroads, he continued to lead the way south. The condition of the residents looks restless and panicked, maybe they have heard the news that Centrical City has been controlled by the enemy, maybe they also think that the United of Regia has been destroyed, their last hope is depending on the rulers on the island of Meridion.

Suddenly Uncle Merton stood in a simple house, not so big but not so small. Uncle Merton's yard was lined with red and yellow flowers.

"Knock knock". Uncle Merton went to the door of his house with his hand knocking on the door

"Knock ... knock ..." the occupants of the house never came out, let alone come out, the sound of the householder was not heard.

"Papa ..." from the back, a yellow-haired woman with her hair tied back and brought a bag of bread from behind. she ran toward Merton's uncle.

"Cia…", replied Uncle Merton with a smile. Then the cheerful woman hugged Uncle Merton.

"Father, thank goodness you're fine, I was looking for you at the pier after hearing the news that Neiter has taken control of Centrical City". Said the girl with one branch. He looked very happy to see that his father was doing well.

The woman was Merton's daughter. She was the same age as Princess Ayabelle. Her name is Agacia. His father and those closest to him often call him Cia.

Finally, after they hugged, uncle Merton introduced the two people he brought beside him.

"Cia, introduce them to dad's friends." Said the uncle as he turned to Jim and Aya.

Finally, Jim and Aya introduced themselves to Cia.

"Okay, just chat inside". Said Uncle Merton while inviting Jim and Aya to enter his house.

As he entered the door of Uncle Merton's house, the first thing he saw was a complete set of iron robes and a sword that was displayed in the corner of the living room.

Jim also looks surprised. Because it seems that this uncle is not just any ordinary fisherman. But Jim still came in and didn't discuss it.

They all sat in chairs. Then Cia opened the food she had just brought.

"Incidentally, today I brought food, you must be hungry".

Jim and Ayabelle's eyes were fixed on the food, they didn't look away one bit. They knew that maybe they were very hungry, after being chased by the Schlanger troops, they also passed through the sea of ​​pitch-black clouds. They must be starving and not eating at all.

Finally, Cia prepared the food that she brought on the wooden table. "Please eat, you must be hungry".

"With pleasure" quickly Jim and Aya ate the banquet food with gusto and fast. Uncle Merton and Cia smiled at that.

"Of course you have to eat, too." Cia looked at Merton's uncle as if he were telling him to eat the food immediately.

Finally, they all ate together at the table with gusto until they were full.
