A society where everyone has a “familiar” (magical animal creature) except one person. “What’s your familiar?”
We begin life with a Soul mate baptism where we are joined together with a single magical creature which was born at the exact same time as we were. Our creature mates are specifically chosen for us via the Gods and we are bonded with them for life. We do not get to choose which creature, but they are all magical and they will all live so long as we do. Which means, if I die, my creature dies with me. My name is Christopher and my mate is a hawk that I named Seymuor. Everyone in Laplan has a magical creature. Everyone that is, except old Mr. Croaker. It is said that a long time ago when he was a young lad, Mr. Croaker left Laplan for the big city across the lake and this caused his magical creature to lose all its powers. His magical toad became just an ordinary toad. And upon returning back home, his toad had run off, never to be seen again. It is for this very reason that nobody ever dares leave Laplan for fear of losing their soul mate. At least that is how the story goes. Oh there is a big city out there somewhere across the lake but…
Don’t you think it is odd that city folk never come to Laplan? Well it is odd and I often wonder about that. Why don’t they come? What is it like out there in the big city? And what would life be like without a magical creature?
