The Improved Original Patrick Ameye

Rif wants to escape from his dull destiny by buying a boat. The villagers declare him insane. After all, everyone knows the magic ocean is unnavigable. Only the old priestess of the village takes pity on him. She has her reasons because she transforms before his eyes into a young warrior girl. The girl is a bodyguard employed by a mysterious client. She invites Rif on a journey and trains him to improve his fighting skills before they reach the magic forest. They meet all kinds of wondrous creatures and entities; Adrian, the pub-holder, wood-enhancer. Yelena, the guardian. Runo, the magistrel, Borildor forest, the magical forest. Goodkind, the woodling, the tribe of the hollow oak woodlings. Homast, the town wizard of Yuvileno and Imit, the very annoying time-watcher. Gradually the young man realizes the journey is more than discovering the world. People he has never seen seem to know him. Situations he experiences look familiar, and his companions seem to know the outcome. Is he the center of this world ?
