Chapter I

I remember putting the box with the old newspapers in the closet when the doorbell rang.

"One moment, please,"

I got up, went to the counter and there he stood. The postman. His uniform was white with golden patterns, his eyes were connected with a white-golden cloth, the pattern of one eye could be seen. He had gray skin and violet hair, he also had horns and his ears were pointed back. A firmament eleven. He was young I would have taken him for 140 (in retrospect I was allowed to find out that he is 298...),

“Good morning. I'm looking for a gentleman with the first name Saphirriver?”

"That would be me. Why?”

The postman took a letter and presented it to me.

"I don't know what they messed up to, but they take care of themselves,"

And with these words the postman broke up. Before I realised it, I had to realise why. The letter came from the 3. Plain. Also known as: Tenebrae or (like humans (resp. Homo sapiens) from the 2. Level "Vida" say) the hell. I live on the 1st floor. Plain, "Eileen" or "the sky". I remember how much I had to pull myself together not to laugh, because the letter was very lively.

The first question I asked myself was this: Who writes a letter from Tenebrae to Eileen, writes his name and age and then also without address???? The second question was: What person doesn't even know his own gender?! The answer to that is certainly quite simple, the person is simply chaotic. Or the person is just trying to manipulate me to get to Eileen in the end. We are strictly forbidden to visit the respective floors (\= level) (except in special cases, then this is allowed).

"Saphiiiir!!! Hey! I have a new order,"

A young man at the age of 22 came up to me. He was simple, tall and his face looked sweaty. His dark blue hair was glued to his forehead and the blue eyes sparkled with pride.

"I'm happy for you Isec"

"And you also have a new assignment"

"Show me!",

I had started stacking a book stack an hour ago, full of excitement I didn't take care and the book pile fell.

"Strap"

"You must have worked on it for a long time, haven't you?"

"Yes, more or less, but it doesn't matter, so"

I looked at Isec expectantly. Isec is my half-brother and yet we got along splendidly, like complete brothers. We had both taken over the book & stationery store from our father when he got an offer for a portal watch. Every now and then we got assignments that we had to do either in schools, in libraries or on expeditions. But this time it was different. When Isec handed me the wrapped parchment, my heart remained still for a brief moment. On the letter seal you could see a silver moon on it. Luna's coat of arms, something happened.

"Hey Saphir, how are you?"

Isec looked at me worriedly.

"Yes, everything is fine"

Before I know it, the letter disappeared. Once sight, was clear, //Typical Luna//.
