Colonists



May 13, 1607


I was in the galley, preparing the scott coffee for the older sailers when I heard the the call. Even though it was muffled by the wood, I knew exactly who was yelling and why. 'Laaaaaaaaaaaand Hoooooooooo!' Of course, we had been seeing gulls for days and knew that we would come to America soon, but now it was within sight! I remember leaping away from the stove and running up on deck and swallowing my first view of the New World, how many trees there were! Back at my old home I would've never seen that many, In London, trees were a thing for parks. I ran down into the belly of the ship to get my Father. He was just as excited as me at the news. Then the Captain came out. Immediately snapping into a salute, he grinned at me with his gray eyes -What strange eyes they were, like the colour of a misty morning- and said, "Stand at rest, child, this is a day for celebration!"

Native Americans



I still remember everything perfectly, I remember it as perfectly as a man would remember a traumatizing dream.

I was on the coast throwing the green stones into the water, a few of them jumped as I intended them to, but I was still a novice at the art of stone skipping. When my stone pile had depleted I decided to lay down and relax on the surprising warm beach. Thinking about my children at home, I sat up with a start at a tolling noise coming from the ocean -Ding! Ding!- Quickly once more, I peered out over the ocean trying to find the source of the noise only to find the peak of a white cloth coming over the horizon. I heard about these sightings, these were the strange white men, English they called themselves, or sometimes spanish, but none in my tribe had seen any spanish in a long time. My heart pounded in my ears as I leapt to my feet and ran back to my house. "The English are here!"
