The Sage of Einar

Jesper, who was washing one of the many cows they had bought from Darien, looked curiously at Daven and Laura.

Those who were washing a small sheep with a yellow soap "Remember to carve the fur of the animal very well with sulfur soap because we do not know how many lice and other vermin it may have.

So we want to keep them clean enough to avoid a real mess when they are placed in our pens."

Daven, who was carving the sheep's fur as best he could, looked seriously at his teacher. "Lice are those little insects that cause itching and diseases, right?"

Jesper smiled at the words of his apprentice "I see you've been learning a lot from your father, which is pretty good because if you want to be a better druid you must know everything you can about animals.

Perhaps in other professions or teachings learning more is prohibited because it would interrupt traditions and ancestral knowledge, but we as Druids do not have those limitations.

At least our bloodline and way of teaching from generation to generation, this because we realized a long time ago that if we did not learn the customs of everyone else and took everything that did not work, we would simply be left behind.

So remember to learn everything you can from your father because I doubt that there is any other person who knows more than him, in those strange and new knowledge that he always shows us. "

Laura, who was wiping the sweat from her forehead, put her gaze on the sheep's face, who seemed to be quite happy with the bath.

"Teacher Jesper, I would like to ask you why we have to wash the sheep again if yesterday we washed it and tomorrow we will have to wash it again.

As I have been able to understand, it is not assumed that with just one bath all the vermin that the sheep has will have ended up dead? "

Jesper shook his head "It is a precautionary measure that your father devised. His words were that they had to wash for 3 days in a row because we did not know how much dirt and vermin they could have.

In addition, sulfur soap is not a completely reliable method, so it is better to repeat the process over and over again until we are sure that the animals are clean and free of pests.

That could endanger the lives of all of us, or worse still end up with all our pomegranate.

In addition, all the knowledge that you are learning at this time will help you in the future, because you have noticed the sheep that you are washing are behaving in a very calm way.

This is because they have applied the right way to be able to calm him down and wash him without being aggressive towards someone. "

Daven and Laura looked at each other because they had not thought about how they had managed to calm the sheep down. For them, it had been something natural.

Due to the constant training that they had been doing with the foxes and some other animals that you must in when they required cleaning or simply some care, such as cutting their nails.

Jesper's son Joakim could only laugh when he saw the faces of the two children "It is normal that you have not paid attention because you are already used to working with animals.

In addition, none of these animals is dangerous so neither of us has interrupted their handling of the animals.

Just remember with dangerous animals the situation will be completely different and you will always have to be aware of the actions they do.

How, for example, the cubs which are already growing, revealing their aggressive and wild attitude, with them it is necessary that they always do the tasks that correspond to them accompanied by an adult.

Although unfortunately perhaps in a few months they will no longer be able to see them because they will be too dangerous even for us.

According to the words of his father, we will have to wait for the next generation of captive-bred white bears to start selective breeding.

With which we will begin to choose the individuals that are better adapted to the stay in a herd and that are not so aggressive, those who do not comply with the rules will be sacrificed.

But it is a price that the tribe is willing to pay to achieve the domestication of such an amazing animal as the bear. "

Laura sighed because she had liked the white bear cubs very much. Unfortunately, she knew they were too dangerous so at some point she would have to stop seeing them.

"The only thing that makes me happy is that soon we will have more snow foxes on our farm. I can't wait to see their young.

They should be quite beautiful, don't you think, Daven? "

Daven nodded as he used water to rinse the soap off the sheep's fur. "The little foxes should look extremely beautiful and I'm sure I can handle them."

Jesper stroked his beard. "Daven, you must remember the first rule I told you about baby animals."

Daven was stunned for a moment before turning his head and looking at Jesper "The young of any animal is always going to be overprotected by the mother so if one tries to take them without the consent of the mother.

These can be very aggressive with caregivers, so you can only take the offspring of those mothers with whom you have mutual trust. "

Jesper showed a proud face after listening to his student "That is correct and although I am afraid to tell you that you will not be able to take all the winter fox pups.

For your constant training and dedication with some foxes, I am sure that some mothers will allow you to take care of their cubs.

But always remember to have respect for life, since although we are not afraid of killing to feed ourselves, killing for pleasure is an aberration for nature.

Elves and any creature of nature could punish our insolence, all lives matter until our own life or survival is at stake ... "

Jesper had to interrupt his little speech as he could see Darían walking towards them along with his two guards.

"Joakim, take care of the animals while I attend to our guests. I think they are coming to see our winter fox barn and cubs."

When Darían arrived with Jesper he greeted him in a very friendly way "It's a pleasure to meet you, Jesper, from what I could hear you will be in charge of showing me the fox stables and the area of ​​the white bears, right?"

Jesper nodded and motioned for her to follow him. As Darían advanced he could see Einar's children wash a sheep with smiles on their faces.

'To think that although they are children of the Jarl, they have to work and they do it with smiles only shows that perhaps our ways of education are quite wrong.

Although it could also be wrong and only ours something that is completely unreal, because I cannot imagine my older brother working like those children.

Even putting my firstborn to do the same activities gives me some shame, but at the same time, I feel that the learning they can have is worth it.

I will have to see how children behave these days to know if it is appropriate to educate my son in this way, although perhaps it is the correct way.

The last thing I want is to have some spoiled children who behave like the children of the kingdoms near our city. Those young people are simply useless.

They live their lives full of luxuries and pleasures while their towns suffer from hunger and other problems, but I suppose that as long as they continue in that way our city can continue to prosper. '

After walking for a few minutes, they came to a rather strange place for Darían because the walls that surrounded a large piece of land that was supposed to be a farm were something new for him.

When the first doors opened, Darían and his guards entered and waited patiently for the door behind them to close before the second door opened.

Which uncovered numerous winter foxes which were quite happy to see their keeper.

"You can go through with care. Just remember to avoid stepping on the little foxes because if you do they will start to fear us and that would be truly a disgrace.

Because here a fox that is afraid of us means that we will have to sacrifice it because it will not be possible to remove that fear that possibly turns into anger.

Which could cause it to attack us. Although I would like to sell the skin of these small animals, I have to say that they are very young and the blowjob is still small.

I think we could start selling fox fur from next year no later than December, but it will all depend on growth and Einar's orders. "

Darían, who was crouching looking carefully at a fox that had blue fur, scratched its beard "These animals could be considered pets or they are wild and only have value for their fur."

The little blue fox felt a sense of fear of the person in front of him, so he ran out and entered his burrow.

Jesper shook his head after seeing that peculiar scene "At the moment these foxes are too wild, according to my own calculations and the knowledge of Herald Einar.

Maybe in five years, we could have a breed of winter foxes which can be a good pet to take care of the home yard from any threat, especially from rats.

But we will have to wait as selective breeding is something new for us. "
