Pynar patiently unwrapped the last little bundle of goodness that he had left from his shopping trip with Omari. He only had one of the chocolate taffy left and he planned to savor it. To him, it was a treat and something to be enjoyed thoroughly. So that’s what he made sure he did: enjoy it to the fullest. He was sitting in his favorite spot on the beach at his favorite time of day, sunset, and was enjoying his favorite candy he’d ever had. A little niggling thought in the back of his head invaded his peace. It was a little something Omari had said when they were buying the sweets. “Could you imagine making sweets all day?” If he were honest with himself, he couldn’t. Sure he was always interested when they went in there and if they happened to be working on something at that time he found himself standing around to watch. What would it be like to make sweets all day? As he told Omari, he imagine he would be eating a lot of them, unable to resist them. But perhaps that faded when you were making so many of them, he wasn’t sure. It was a thought though. A thought that seemed very appealing to him. No other job in his recent past ever felt right. No weapon or fighting style ever called to him and he always found himself immensely relieved whenever that kind of training or practice was over. So what about baking? Or candy-making? Pynar found himself liking that idea a lot. And, indecisive as he was, decided to think on it for a few days before making a decision. It was a couple of days later when he walked into the house and noticed a little taffy sitting on the table for him with a note: “Pynar, I hope you enjoy!” With that, of course he had to go back out to his favorite place to enjoy it fully. Once he popped it in his mouth, his brows furrowed. It had looked like the chocolate ones he enjoyed but it was and wasn’t at the same time. It looked the same but didn't taste the same and that made it all the more interesting. He wanted...no he really wanted to learn how to make these. It was then that he made up his mind. He would go to the little store in town and ask if they would teach him!

Pynar found himself pacing at the entrance to the store. Not just any store, but his favorite store that sold sweets. He had come here with a purpose but now that he was here he found it hard to make himself go inside and talk to the old matori couple who ran it. ”Come on, Pynar...just go inside.” He whispered quietly to himself trying to hype himself up. There were a few people outside on the streets going to and from places on their own errands. A few gave him some strange looks for pacing back and forth outside the storefront. He was so preoccupied with his own thoughts that he didn’t hear the door open up behind him. “Would’ja come in instead of pacing out there? I think you’re making people nervous.” The sudden voice caused him to jump and turn around. Py smiled apologetically. ”I’m sorry.” He said as he followed the older man back inside. As usual, his eyes lit up at seeing all the different kinds of sweets. ”I want to learn how to make these!” He blurted out suddenly in all his nervousness. A blush appeared on his face and he smoothed his hair back. “Ahh…” The old man said before going quiet in contemplation. “I’ve been wondering about you, you seem to pay so much attention when you come in here. I spoke with your Mother about it as I was not sure if I should offer tutelage or not. But it was when she told me that you’ve not left very far from home that I had made my decision. My wife and I will teach you under one condition…” The man paused there. Pynar seemed to be hanging on his every word. “The condition is that you travel a little, find out more about the cuisines of other peoples. The world is so large now, there are so many places to go. My wife and I are aging and cannot easily leave Matori anymore. Go in our place and learn some of these things. Then when you get back, you can tell us what you learned and we will teach you what we know. Deal?” The shopkeeper held out his hand to shake if Pynar accepted his offer. It only took a few moments for Pynar to make this decision, which was rare, ”Deal.” He said as he took the man’s hand in a shake. This was one of the biggest decisions the young man had ever made. It involved facing some of his fears like being out on his own and not having anybody to depend on but himself. But in the end there was going to be knowledge and sweets, who wouldn’t want that combination? “We will give you a little bit of money to get you by for a little while. We’d had some saved up in the hopes of having children but were never able to do so. So consider it an investment in your future? Hmm?” The man gave him a knowing look that said he expected him to come back yet already knew that he would. ”I understand.” Pynar said seriously with a nod. ”I’ll get some things in order and be back in a few days and we’ll discuss some more before I set off.” They shared a few more plans before Pynar left a little while later to speak to his parents and get some things packed. He was going on an adventure.

Blurb: Pynar has, for once in his life, made a split decision and decides to leave the only place he has ever known on his own adventure of sorts and hopes to come back home and learn how to make candy.
