Backstory
“Who is he?” The voice boomed as Oculus cringed. He had hoped his latest project would not have been discovered so early.

Oculus smiled with his obnoxious grin wide on his face.

“Grandfather what brings you here?” he said hoping to distract him momentarily.

For a few seconds he stood still before grabbing Oculus cloak and tugging it towards him.

“How did you find him?”

Oculus calmly pushed him off and started thinking.

He pulled out a small dagger and promptly cut off the rope holding the bridge to his small tower. The already unstable bridge collapsed and fell into the sea disturbing sea life nesting nearby. A button was pushed, and a mechanism opened.

Oculus could see his grandfather’s eyes dart towards the now opening tunnel.

Oculus started taking off his cloak as a bolt of thunder cackled in the sky.

“You better not be wasting my time”.

They dived in.

“Impressive library is what your aunt would say” Oculus grandfather gazed around the room.

Oculus waved his hand and a light came on. Revealing a lectern with a book.

‘Every hero that had ever lived is in that book’ Oculus lectured. ‘Don’t break it’.

The book was opened, and he muttered the words…

The sky was filled with bright light and the baby boy was brought into the light. His skin glowed in the unusually gold illumination and his eyes opened for the first time. Alicia Smith smiled and muttered an incantation ‘May the gods bless you my young one I know your dad will’

At age 6 the blue eyed-muddy brown hair child prodigy was wondering around his mother’s small hut. The village was very poor. The hunters were struggling to find any game and the elderly were getting sick and dying. He picked up the wooden broom and went outside to where a chicken was pondering down the streets.

He drove the broom into where the chicken’s heart was and started stabbing it. Puzzled why it didn’t die he looked around to see what looked like a sharper broom. That night him and his mom ate chicken.

This went on for weeks until the village elders noticed his routine.

The village started talking and it was decided. Starting the next day Huggy would go out with the hunters and hunt for game.

(From a passage from his journal)

I remember my first hunt like no other. It was crack of dawn and my first mentor Periposhclies woke me from my slumber. He told me to fasten my newly acquired gear and get to the forest.

I was greeted by the village elder who gave us blessings for the hunt.

Ajamu’s and his friends Isosceles and Amthipeas were staring at me with a look of hatred and I do not blame them they weren’t accepted into the hunt till there 16th birthday.

Periposhclies leaded us into the forest and we started hunting in groups of four in my group Ajamu, Isosceles and Amthipeas.

I remember how cold it was that day the almost unrealistic mist cloaked us in near darkness. Ajamu led the way with his scorching with flames torch and we set of into the heart of the forest.

“You don’t belong here”. The voice came from Ajamu as we took another turn. “A six-year-old for Heras sake”.

He turned around looked at me and started prodding my chest “get lost little boy”.

In the distance I saw a figure and then a embodiment began to take shape a boar started charging straight for us.

I hate boars I have my whole life. At that moment I was exhilarated to have a boar as my first kill. It had been my full desire to kill something and my first opportunity had arrived. Amthipeas saw what I saw, and his cheeks began to redden.

“Ajamu”

They saw the sheer power of the boar’s stride and began their formations. As an archer Isosceles began shooting arrows but the beasts hide was too strong. Ajamu had pulled out his four-foot blade and charged the boar. Unnaturally the boar sidestepped, and its tusks grazed Ajamu and he fell to the ground whimpering in pain. Isosceles seeing his friend fallen panicked and started running.

Amthipeas yelled at me to do something and I went over to Ajamu who had blood smeared near his groin. What I thought was a graze was a fatal wound. He looked at me.

“You have promise kid” he gave me his blade.

“Kill the boar”.

Even though we didn’t have a good relationship I started to tear up as I ended his suffering.

The boar was gone, and it was only me and Amphiteas.

“What a coward” Amphiteas spat to the ground before looking at Ajamu’s broken body.

He turned to me and told me we were going back to the group.

That night I had a dream in that dream I was in the forest on my own and the boar was back. The narrow path before me ended as I was trapped, I could hear Ajamu’s voice

“You were supposed to avenge me”.

I woke with a start and grabbed the blade he once had given me. Swiftly I ran as fast as my little feet could. And started tracking the boar just like my dream I ended up in the same position.

The boar’s blood red eyes stared into my soul and I realised. A young boy with no training against a wild boar.

The blade in my hand seemed to waver as the boar charged the sheer force in his stride made me run into the thick forest even further. When I felt the right moment upon me, I whipped my blade out and slashed at the boar’s legs causing it to fall. In a vulnerable position the boar struggled to get up and could only watch as a blade when through its heart. That night the village ate boar.

“This is not enough Oculus” the man boomed the blood vessels visible in his skull.

He rolled his eyes. “Keep reading”.

After several years of hunting for the village at the age of 13 his mother died to a rare illness.

The village tried to take him in, but he ended up running off into the lands of Tiryns.

From there he joined the ranks of several powerful armies eventually becoming the one of the most powerful men in Greece.

(More journal excerpts)

''I fear I may have to leave the lands of Greece due to interest in my demise. Enemies want to steal my army and slaughter me.''

When attacked by the Army of Athens Huggy was forced to flee across the seas. With a fleet of 12 ships 789 civilians, 134-foot soldiers, 23 calvary and his 3 most trusted friends. Princess Ithaca, Erogenous and Apraxia.

They travelled for days the winds carry their sails. Finally reaching a stretch of mountains, Huggy inspected the land and nodded in approval. The fertile land and potential for growth was high he must keep his new land a secret.

He named it Oceania. The colony they sent out many story tellers to tell of the doomed country to ensure no one would come.

Many armies tried to pass through many died. At the age of 19 he had conquered everything possible.

Oculus looked at his grandfather’s eyes with a smile. ‘He’s your grandson’.
