Year X

  There’s no real way of telling time here. Only minutes, hours, days, months, years. No one knows how we became. We can only hypothesize. We call Him, God; our Maker, our Leader, our Father. He is Everything. He is Life.

  I am Aixa, translated from many languages to mean ‘source of life’. My mother found it fitting upon birth.

We are Anastasis.

1.

 14 years have passed since my birth. I am very intellectual for my age. My father and mother tell me so all the time. Then there is my sister, Lavi, meaning daughter of the moon in our language.  She is two years my senior but we are as close as if we were birthed at the same time.

  My father, who is a merchant, provides enough for our small family to live. My mother works as me and Lavi’s teacher. She teaches us mostly about the history of Anastasis but also teaches us about numbers and letters. 

  That is all that you need to know about my life before. I was not a particularly interesting girl nor did I have adventurous journeys or tales of woe. I was average.

 That is before.
