Our journey

Maria or now know as Ambrosia looked at her reflection. It's been three days since they left tribe Zephyr and they are heading to the West where the Tribes ruled by women were.

Her crew consisted of her younger sister, Fatima or now Rose, 11 Who always wanted to leave. Her cousin, Nora or Ophelia, 18 was the one who suggested going to the West and starting their own tribe she even trained herself as a gatherer. Her best friend, Anna or Lily, 20 doctor trained under her mother and always knew that she had to leave the tribe. Isabella or Morgana, 50 who loved her daughter more than anything. Farah or Leena, 14 always wanted to free her sister from the control of men. Sarah or Eva, 13 She wanted to learn magic. And three men who were chosen to be slaves. Four horses and two cats one Ambrosia's, Evie and one is Deena's, Loria and a dog is Ambrosia's, Sky. her half sister, Deena or Diana, 10 She never wanted to leave she loved being the chief's daughter.

Ophelia already took the slaves to gather food and fish. Leena and Eva went with her to keep the slaves in check. Morgana and Lily went to gather medicinal herbs.

"You still didn't explain anything to me!" Diana yelled drawing Ambrosia's attention to her. "Where did this weird magic come from? And Where are we going?"

"This magic is called blood magic it can only be used by females it needs to have a ritual to be able to use it" Ambrosia said "And we're going to the West to join the Tribes ruled by women"

"WHAT??! I don't want to join another tribe take me to father right now and you're gonna explain to him that I was sabotaged" Diana yelled.

"Do you really think father cares about any of us? He doesn't and I'm a traitor do you think he'll listen to what I say?" Amber was losing her patience "In the other tribe you were only considered as a daughter of the chief not a princess not even a lady! But when I get permission from the court of the west and start my tribe you're gonna be the sister of the queen which makes you a princess!"

That seemed to shut her up she went to play with her cat. Ambrosia returned to stare at the water remembering her life before the disaster how her father loved and cherished her but when the disaster came he went and came back with his mistresses and their children. And then he never could live up to the image of the perfect father that he once was.

she then took her map that she created of the Tribes and territories. They were so close to the Artemisian territories or else known as the Tribes ruled by women. She was looking for a place that would be great and wasn't on the border and she found some places but she didn't really like them. She decided to wait till they entered the territory.

A day has passed by and they reached the Artemisian market so Ambrosia sent Lily and Morgana to the market to buy them some clothes.

AMBROSIA'S OUTFIT ^

OPHELIA'S DRESS

Ambrosia was walking along the coast with Ophelia when she saw an Island in the distance. "Do you think that island belongs to a tribe?" She asked Ophelia "I don't know let's ask it seems spacious and big" Ophelia answered "Excuse me doesn't island belong to any tribe?" Ophelia asked. "No most Tribes would rather be away from this side of the boarder since the Men Tribes are from here while the other side isn't inhabited and since there is another maket on the other side they don't worry much but the two Tribes here would rather not go to that island because it's hard to build and grow things even if it's as big as four Tribes of their sizes combined" The shop owner answered "Is there a boat that can take us there?" Amber asked an island as big as this was a treasure that she had to see. "Yes you can just pay them and they'll take you there"

Ambrosia accompanied by Ophelia and Morgana went to the island by boat leaving the others to take care of Diana's tantrums. Amber loved her sister but sometimes she acted like a baby. Ophelia went to see if the place can bring good harvest and Morgana to see if there were any medicinal herbs. And Ambrosia went to see if there was any good place to build her Palace and she actually found a big spacious place in the center of the island and if they cut some of the trees it would be even better.

With only getting the permission of the Artemisian court left Ambrosia traveled there with Lily and a slave they named Kai. Ambrosia entered the building since she already had permission. "What brings a young woman like yourself here?" the head which is an old woman said. "Ambrosia Hestia, and I'll be direct I want to start my own tribe here" Amber said. "We can't accept any lone woman that comes to our territory wanting to start a tribe without any verification of your ability" The woman on the right of the head said "Oh I'm not alone I have a gatherer and two doctors and four young girls and three slaves see the woman with me is a doctor" Ambrosia said full of confidence "And we're all witches but the slaves aren't" she continued "I like her let's give her a chance" the youngest of the court said. "If you can convince us to let you build a tribe in an hour we'll let you" The head said.

Amber told them how she and her sister were forbidden from their smallest rights of having a last name and how they weren't allowed to practice magic. And in the end she succeeded."You said you had young girls?" The young court member said. "Yes they're my sisters and friends" Amber responded "I'm Marleen of tribe Kelpie And I have a lot of providers and I think you might need some" Queen Marleen said. "That would be really nice thank you" Amber answered.
