The Real World
Clash of Clans Addict, Chief geek, and mobile hands was how my friends used to call me because of one simple reason, Clash of Clans. But who I really am is Yoan, yes that’s my real name while eventually my village name too. My real life was very boring and was not as much as my expectation. Clash of Clans was the only thing interesting in my life. As my friends used to call me I was a big Clash of Clans addict and even spent many zero sleep nights for COC. But it’s been six months since I stopped playing it. It isn’t an easy job doing so. There are many moments that my village needed my help and the pain I felt staying away from them. I really feel sorry not caring on them during the enemy raids. This is my addiction level and this level is the cause for me to quit coc. The game has been my life for several days and I really felt losing me out of my real life. The only way to avoid opening the game is by uninstalling it which I have not done till today, but I want someone to take care of my village for me. Yoan is a massive Town hall 9 maxed out village at a level of 145. I decided to sell my village in order to buy me back. So I posted all over the internet to sell it to someone who might care for the village.
There was no big response for my selling idea which prompted me to get back to COC. I was double minded in the fact of returning back to the world of Clash of Clans. But eventually my friend Ryan came to help me out of my problem. He was ready to play and take care for my village. So I handed over my account to Ryan and taught him how to play the game. He is a quick learner and got the play in a jiffy. The new chief of Yoan is now Ryan.
Well it all comes down to this, I am ready to uninstall Clash of Clans and return back to my original world. Nothing felt much pain than trying to uninstall it, that pain prompted me to play it for one last time. Yes, I wanted to see my village the final time I could. The index finger opened the application even without my control over it. The black screen opened in my I-Pad and the word sup-erc-ell , such a beauty to the eyes. I was on the top of my happiness and joy. But what happened after that was really weird, instead of going to the loading screen all that was there was a simple black screen. I really couldn’t understand what has happened to it. So, tapped the screen with my finger , tapped it again and on the third tap of the finger, all I felt was full vacuum and darkness around me. It was a feeling of unconsciousness and was unable to open my eyes.
It was pure blacked out closing my eyes. When I was able to open my eyes, I saw myself somewhere in middle of a forest, a forest full of green trees and fresh air. Stood up to and all that was around me were trees only.
Welcome Home Chief
I found myself in the middle of some unknown forest and stood there not knowing what to do. I started searching my way out of the forest. But may the forest be magical or it must be me who must be walking in circles, because whatever I do to get out of the forest, I find myself at the same place where I started. Tired of my efforts , settled right there thinking out of something to get me out of the forest. Suddenly in a distant I saw a young girl wandering through the forest going somewhere. She was my only chance of getting out of the forest and so I started following her without her noticing me. She enjoyed her time in the forest simply clapping and singing around. At a distant appeared a ray of light which indicated the exit of the forest. So I made a run towards the light source crossing the young girl to see an opening out of the forest with a notice board at one end.
The sentence on the notice board stated “Welcome to Village YOAN”. ‘OMG’ was the words uttered by me before I fell unconscious again on the grass. So it’s all a dream I said to myself and opened my eyes to see myself lying on a bed made out of stone and found the girl that I followed staring curiously at me. I found many others with her who all looked very similar to her. The moment I stood out of the bed, to the unbelief of my eyes two bulky barbarians came towards me. I stood still shocked and speechless seeing the barbarians in life. But the barbarians gave a brutal blast to my face and tied my hand behind my back. They dragged me out of the hut and there I was, the village created by me, the Yoan village. It was a delight and amazement to me to see my own creation getting into life which just kept me speechless till now. The barbarians, really a build body the yellow moustache and the shinny sword were something to see without eye blinks. They dragged me through the streets of Yoan and I just went along with them amazed and with a big amount of fear and confusion in my mind.
The Yoan Village, something I built from the scratch. Everything stood out there magnificently. All those barracks, camps, collectors and storages stood like a big skyscraper to my eyes. The cannons and towers all pointed at me while passing through them which definitely scared me like hell. They dragged me to the place where I placed the clan castle and locked me there in front of the clan castle. From behind the Castle came the huge and mighty Barbarian King. He was really humongous and scary. The King assigned a wizard to investigate me and then left the place for the patrol. The wizard introduced himself to me. The wizard name was Ronak and he worked as the Junior Head at the laboratory. He used some spells on me which was to make me speak the truth. The spells did show the effect on me and so I told every single information about the village, it was in my heart. The wizard feared that I was some kind of a spy from other villages. I even told them that I am their creator. But the outcome of it was that I am insane and trying all the ways to escape from them. So he kept me under the guard of some barbs and left the place.
The entire night I was tied up over there. The next morning the wizard and king came together in the intention to finish my life. Death by my own creation, I really was not ready for that. The King wanted to confirm the data about me before executing me. The only way that I could escape their execution was a lie. The wizard still believed that his spell was effective on me, which gave me a major advantage for my life. I stated myself as the future update of COC and I was just a testing prototype to the game. The King was satisfied with my words and seemed to believe the lie which I told to them. So there, he left whispering something to the wizard and giving me a wicked smile.
The wizard followed the king whispering again to the barbarian near him. The barbarian took his sword from the holster position and came facing me. It was a heart stopping moment and I started praying out my prayers. The barbarian cut loose the tied hands and let me free. He then said you are free to roam the village and also said
in a high tone “Welcome to the Village”.
The Ceremony Celebration
Well there I am now, a part of the village as they believed so, but no one knows that the creator is roaming among them. As soon as the barbarian untied me, I rushed out of that place to find myself in the middle of the village standing still unknown what to do. The entire village gathered around me and saw me with curiosity and eagerness. One among the crowd was the same girl whom I saw at the very beginning. Suddenly she ran towards me. She introduced herself as Kita to me and was very much interested in knowing about me. She offered to show me around the village. She took me around the village and was kept on asking questions about me. I was the centre of attractions for all the villagers, everyone watched me with keen eyes as I passed through them. I just passed along with Kita hearing her talks. I felt like a fish out of the water in Yoan.
We first went near the army camps where I saw some barbarians practising with swords while some slaking around and other various activities but the camp was not full. There was a feeling of warmth while crossing the army camps which definitely was from the fire from the camp. Then Kita took me to the storages section. I never thought they would be that much big in size in original. I then climbed the ladder of one of the gold storages to find it empty and dusted. I was the reason why it was not filled up. Then next we crossed one of the archer towers. The Archer tower was a level 11 tower and it had 3 archers scouting the area from above the tower. It was really puzzling to me how the cannons and mortars worked automatically without a need of a human worker for it, but it just gave a spine chilling experience to me while going near it. But Kita was still continuing her guide talks and was casually leading me through the Yoan village. I was gazing at the wizard tower nearby with amazement but Kita grabbed my arm and dragged me to the Research lab nearby it. There were many wizards chit chatting around the lab. The black hoods gave them a devilish look but I just wanted to look at their afro hairstyle. The Barbarian King was spending some time with the Archer Queen.
But there was something special going around the village which kindled my curiosity. All the villagers and soldiers in the village were preparing for some kind of an occasion or function. But I remained silent and thought Kita would eventually say it on her own and simply kept following her with silence. Kita and I went towards the town hall next. What a magnificent monument it was, it was a beauty to any eyes seeing it. Over the Town hall there were many villagers making some preparations. I had enough of the tour, so I broke my silence and asked Kita what were all the preparations for? She was puzzled I didn’t know about it. The preparations are for the Name Change Ceremony celebration. The Yoan Village is renamed to be Ryan Village and all the people in the village are getting ready to celebrate.
It was a big heart ache to Yoan, his village is being changed to someone else and the people whom he took care of are enjoying and celebrating it. Yoan fell into deep grief but didn’t show it out.
The Troops and Warriors
The sorrow struck deep into my mind due to the celebration ceremony, but Yoan consoled himself by remembering that it was his decision to leave COC. Ryan has decided to change the name of the village and it is his account now so Yoan can do nothing about it now.
So I continued the tour along with Kita and we crossed the town hall. Behind the town hall was the area where I placed the barracks. This is where I was very eager to visit. From the beginning when I started playing COC, I was always impressed about the dragons, pekkas and skeletons and wished to know about their origin and existence, from where they all came to COC. So once we reached the barracks, I broke my silence and asked Kita to say everything that she knew about the troops in the barracks. She happily said the things she knew about the troops while taking me into the barracks.
The information that she said about the troops were as like,
Barbarians are the very first and basic male warriors of the village. They are rude, arrogant and have a great thirst for war. The Male Villagers are never allowed to leave the barracks and are involved in full time training to make them into barbarians. She also added that with you as the future update, the male villagers may be allowed to roam the village like the female villagers. You are the first male villager allowed to roam the village.
Archers are the female bow troops of the village. The archers are all female and the female villagers are fed with elixir and given training to make them into archers.
She also said the troops who return from the war unharmed will return back to their normal life till the next war raid. The females start their regular roaming and male villagers will continue with the training in the barracks.
She said that the Forest is magical and consists of many magical creatures living in it and so the villagers are not allowed to roam over there, but she sneaks from the villages and roams the forest sometimes.
Giants are gigantic people living in the forest. The forest consists of a separate clan of giants in it. It takes around two minutes for our villagers to seek and tame a giant in the forest. They get annoyed by defences and hate them.
Goblins are tamed from the Goblin villages which are present in the nearby village. The goblins are very greedy creatures and always looking for loot in war raids.
Wall Breaker Skeletons are the creatures living in graveyard of the forest, the causalities of the war are buried in the forest, which then are resurrected as skeleton warriors by our wizards.
Balloon Skeletons are given instructions and training to fly and throw bombs with the help of balloons. They become the balloon skeletons and it attacks the defence structures first.
The Wizards are the magicians of the village. They are one of the main troops of the village and are kept at higher ranks. The Wizards work at the lab, tame creatures for the war and also help in making magic spells and improving defence of the village.
Healer is a magnificent creature which came into the village on its own and started living with the villagers helping the village in healing the war returners.
The Dragon is the most fierce and powerful creature living in the forest. The Wizards take around 30minutes to tame and control the dragon to use them in the war. The Dragon forms an important asset of the war.
The Information about Pekka has always been a mystery from the beginning. The only thing that Kita knew was that the Pekka armour is powered by magic.
After hearing all this, I asked her to tell about the Dark barracks and dark troops, but she refused to do so. The Dark troops can only access the dark barracks and so Kita does not know anything about it. Even I was denied access to it by the Valkyre guarding. The dark barracks is the gateway to the underground world.
The more and more time I spent with Kita, the closer we became with each other. I enjoyed the time spending with her and so did she. We roamed around the village endlessly together and I wished it never ended.
