Day four : January 6, 2010 : Wednesday
I'm sleeping in an inn today, and I have never tasted such lovely food in my life. Maybe it's the fact I'm hungry and haven't eaten for three days, but maybe these girls just know their ingredients. The girls in the inn are not unfriendly, but they are not willing to talk. The inn keeper is nice, though, and we talked a bit. She is very interested in foreigners since it's hard to get out of Artemis to go and travel (if you're an Artemisian).
I finally reached the center. I saw the statue of Artemis, and I couldn't help thinking about Lala. I remembered that she taught me how to handle a bow and arrow. Of course, I haven't progressed much, but at least I'm not clueless. Archery is important here, so I've observed. Almost everyone is carrying a bow with them. It seems that they believe that Artemis will guide them though archery. These are very religious people, these Artemisians. They sure as hell aren't the friendliest of people, but they have a lot of team work.
Today was also sort of lively. The peacefulness of Artemis happens only in the woods...the towns are really lively! I went around the town today and found that there are only five towns tops in Artemis. There are stoney roads leading to each from the center, and dammit, I should've been told about this by that Sapce Port girl. It is beautiful here, and I almost think that it is the exact opposite of Apollo...
Although we have winter in Apollo, it is much much warmer than Artemis. And we are very cheerful people, and like to run around causing havoc and shouting and having fun. But we are rather disciplined inside towns, since we have a lot of temples for Apollo, and silence is important.
Something that I noticed wierd above all, though, is the feeling I get at night and whenever I look at the moon. I can feel something crawling in my skin... And it wakes me up, like it's trying to exhaust me in the morning. Maybe because Artemis is the goddess of the moon? Maybe...
Well, right now I want to sleep in my comfy expensive room.
