This is a glossary for the other fan fiction on my account, not the actual story. For full context, read 'Pokemon: Becoming Legend'.

Every entry will detail the protagonist's Pokemon, from moves and ability, to personality and history.

Glossary of terms & names will be updated once every 20 chapters. If you are just starting the novel, I suggest you do not read it as it will have a great deal of future spoilers.

*HIATUS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE*

I died following my long dream of having freedom for all my people...For all the world.

As a soul kept searching for that freedom until I tried to revive.
But another soul wanted to occupy my body!
No! This is my body! Go away!

This soul kept pestering me, but now in a shape of a narcissist halfling

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
I put on Hiatus because I don't feel confident enough to deliver a good magical environment story. I just feel short and without much logic, I would need to form strict rules about the world and their territories to make it work in my mind. 

And the reality is that I don't have time for that, I would prefer to focus on my other novels.
Thanks for reading, I will come back to this novel later on. Sorry for the 24 people that put this novel on their library.

****************************************

Hi there. I'm the author of this novel. Oh, Jesus, that feels so weird to say.

My idea is to have an original MC with his past memories and other MC or sidekick from earth to provide technology and good harmony of teamwork.

Anyway, I write in my free time. But I now intended to post 1 chapter per day.

At least 1200 words. Maybe more depends on my inspiration at the moment. 

I have sorted the main road to the mc to make. But the journey of how he makes it there is not set in stone.

You can help me shape this novel!
Join me and we can conquer the world!
I mean the ranking haha


Ps: I will be posting this story on RoyalRoadl.com to reach more people.

Hey, just got a question for you all.

So I have a glossary with information on every Pokémon Joe catches. It gets updated with every new development, so after 3.5 there were things added to Fomantis' glossary page that said why it favours it's Trainer now. Another example is with Absol. At the end of 1.3 Joe theorises why the Pokémon goes with him, but in the glossary it's outright stated why Absol picks Joe as it's Trainer.

The glossary will also hint at future content. For example, Nidoran's past is in the glossary, and from that you may be able to figure out where Nidoran's story will lead. The glossary keeps track of every little thing for every single Pokémon Joe catches. Personality quirks, history, what it wants, etc. Everything you can think of.

Now, my question is, how do you want this information? At the moment there are 2 choices. 

1) I add another fan fiction to my account labelled 'Becoming Legend Companion Glossary'. Each chapter will be an individual Pokémon and will be updated alongside the main story. This means that, after the main story focuses on a Pokémon, like Fomantis, a new paragraph will be added to Fomantis glossary chapter that details the Pokémon's new development. This means it's another 'book' to follow though. 

2) A website, likely on WordPress. This means readers would have to go to an external source to get all the information, but if that's how readers want it then fair enough.

Either way, the information will be the same. When Absol's ability is revealed, the Absol chapter of the glossary will be updated so the ability is permanently displayed. 

So yeah, leave a comment on which you'd prefer. If you have a different idea about how to handle the glossary, let me know and I'll definitely consider it. :)

*To avoid clutter and to ensure people have enough time to give their opinion, this chapter will be deleted one week after release.*

Having no interest in becoming a Pokemon Trainer, Joe started adulthood by getting a job at the local store. But, after a run-in with a Legendary Pokemon, Joe decides a different lifestyle will be a good change of pace so he sets off to help others, catching as many Pokemon as possible along the way.

He later encounters a woman with psychic abilities, and she believes him to be quite special. She insists on travelling with him and so begins a journey across the Pokemon World.

<Unknown, Unknown, Unknown>

An Angel sat slumped in her chair, looking over a map of Almarye she muttered" The darkness of the Devils has yet to show itself on the world, their influence will only grow when the dark classes take power over their respective countries. We must hope that the Gods will put aside their squabbles and unite the churches and other God Born against the dark Classes and demons before their Vendetta against the light can be completed."

A man abruptly entered the room, his flimsy white armour contrasted heavily with the heavenly garb of the angel, looking at the man with disgust the angel asked"What do you want?"

The man looked the angel up and down and said" Stop with that condescending attitude, you are an arch-angel, not a God, learn some respect before you are put in your place. Tell your God that Mors has been summoned on the mortal plane by one of the God Born, it is too early for one of the great demons to appear in Almarye, I thought the disciples of Athena would like to know. Next time I will not bother."

The Angel jumped up from her chair, fear clouded her face, grabbing the man by his throat she lifted him up and asked" Are you sure it was Mors? This is way to early, we are not prepared to deal with him, how strong was he?"

The man grabbed the angels arm and began to squeeze it, a small pop sound was heard as the man dislodged the Angel's hand from her wrist, looking at the now pained Angel, the man Said" He seems to have been summoned through a Familiar spell, he is in servitude to a Dark Class God Born but other than that we have no clear information on him, he will still be weak however as his master will grow in strength so will he. The God Born who summoned him will be a big problem for us, do you have any God Born who can counter him?"

Quietly seething in anger the Angel stared at the man, before she forced her limp hand back into its socket, smiling at him with venom clear in her eyes, she said"There is one who can stand against Mors however we will need to locate Mors first. They are close to one of the Dark classes already, with any luck the necromancer will be the one who has forced the Demon into submission."

The man laughed and said" For your sake I hope you are correct, Athena will not be able to protect for long if Mors is able to grow in strength."

<Vermosa Castle, Mors Pov>

'The castle is quite today, it appears after Master stunt this afternoon, the King retreated back towards his quarters as did the Concubine, that makes my job easier at least.'

The spirit slipped through the shadows of marble pillars that donned the pathway to the Castle's entrance, actively avoiding the guards, the shadow creature walked through the metal gate blocking visitors, walking through the courtyard of the castle Mors was intrigued by he choice of marble as the substance used in the pillars that supported the stone walls. After all Marble looked nicer however it was a lot easier to break if the castle was ever under siege...

Putting the flaw to the back of his mind for now, he walked through a final wooden door before heading into the darkness, down steep stone stairs and into a dungeon under the castle itself, instantly the smell and sight of decaying bodies hit Mors' senses, the Demon smiled, 'Smells like home in here, I hope the one Master sent me for is not one of these bodies,, if it is not even the Gods will be able to save the King.'

Walking past a few empty cells, a scream caught mors Atention "I will not tell you how to hurt the prince, under noooo, Owww, Stoooop,"

Moving quickly towards the scream, Mors was delighted when he found a woman matching the description his master had given him, she was tall, with blonde hair, dark blue eyes and clear brown skin. Common features of the  people who hailed from the Steppes, Mors walked closer and was slightly alarmed when it became clear that the woman was being tortured by an old mage, sensing an unkown presence the mage turned around and froze, looking at the ghastly shadow before him the mage began to shake, before he could utter a single word, Mors slit the mages throat.

Looking into the woman's eyes, Mors simple stated" My master has sent meto save you, you will follow me back to my Masters old estate."

The woman kicked the downed mage and walked past Mors, simply grunting at him as she passed, Mors laughed and thought 'Master likes to surround himself with interesting women, It seem s like I have chosen correctly this time around.."


End of chapter.

Little bit of a glossary/ explanation of the story going forwards.

God Born- What the 62 people who were brought to the new world are addressed as by the supernatural beings who can sense their differences.

The plot- From now until the end of Act one there will be three distinctive story lines that will converge at the end of the act, one will follow the 'Hero' of our story. One will follow the Gods and their underlings while the final one will follow a currently unmet character.

If anyone has any questions surrounding the world or how things in it work, leave it in the comments for this chapter and I will try to address them, but I will not give spoilers!

62 people disappear from Earth overnight, Each of them received a game demo on their pc that held the key to their disappearance. 

They were taken to the shattered world of Almarye, within this world there are 7 continents like Earth that have many different countries and cultures on them.

Each of the 62 were randomly placed within a  royal family on the planet and are the designated heir to their respective thrones. Once they turn 21 they will not be able to age but can still be killed in combat or at the hands of another  member of the 62.

The 62 must lead their countries to rule the world or the world will rule them instead....

Expect at least one chapters a week going forwards.

This is a re-write of the 62 warlords.

"Research assistant mission, published by Mentor Han Yunfeng. Long-term recruiting low-level Mystic assistants. Requirements: read 'Mineral and Plants Glossary, Edition 20077', proficient with Flame Control Technique! Those willing can come for an interview. The reward will be discussed in person!"
'Mineral and Plants Glossary'? Fang Yuan searched and found that it was an introductory book. Furthermore, there were thousands of them!
As the galaxy was vast and boundless, new species were being discovered all the time.
Unfortunately… there are only pictorial descriptions. Without seeing it in person, there's no way to trigger resonance and determine the needs of the Heaven Devouring Mystic Technique, Fang Yuan thought regretfully. He then checked out the comments below the mission.
…
"Scam! The most that we learn now is the flora and fauna edition for Planet East Dragon. Who would try to remember those of the entire galaxy? Even seniors must find it impossible, right? There are no credits either!"
"Although the Flame Control Technique isn't expensive, it's standalone. There are no continuations. Who would waste their energy on learning that?"
"The poster above me is a fool! The Flame Control Technique was a must for low-level ancient alchemists. I am from the pharmacy department and have trained in the technique. I remembered the glossary and went for the interview with Mentor Han Yunfeng, but his requirements for the Flame Control Technique are too high. The mentor only accepts masters of the technique… I didn't make the cut."
"What a big revelation!"
"Mysterious senior passing by, just smiling…"
"That Mentor Han Yunfeng is known to be stingy. The credits awarded are extremely few. He didn't impart any dao arts or spiritual techniques either."
"Wow! The poster above me is really brave. You're not afraid of a teacher giving you trouble!"
"It's all right. I'm anonymous…"
…
"It looks like the requirements are high, but the rewards aren't much. He's received a lot of negative feedback."
Fang Yuan browsed again and found that the price of the Flame Control Technique was at a low thirty credits. As for the 'Mineral and Plants Glossary, Edition 20077', it was a public resource that he could read without paying. He made his decision immediately.
"Almost all the other missions have a cultivation level requirement, and there aren't many that are suitable for beginners. This one didn't mention a specific cultivation level requirement, so let's give it a try!"
He searched and found out that although the Flame Control Technique was a standalone technique incapable of further progression, its reviews among the low-level pharmacy students were very solid. He nodded and made the exchange.
"So pharmacy is the ancient alchemy equivalent? I've seen some drugs and tools on sale on the school website… If I learn this, I could make some money…"
Fang Yuan received the information, and the Arcane Smart-Brain immediately formed the psyche model, mastering the spiritual technique. 
The interaction between his smart-brain and his True Spirit produced a fundamental change, the fusion of terrifying calculative power and supreme intellect. He absorbed the information in the Mineral and Plant Glossary at an incredible pace while walking along the road. 
By the time he arrived at Han Yunfeng's door in the teachers' housing area, he had memorized thousands of books.
This mentor stayed near the core of the zone, and it was visibly different from Lü Songyang's corner house near the periphery. It was a three-story courtyard house with a garden.
Fang Yuan walked up to a lion carving on the main door and talked into it, "Teacher Han Yunfeng? I am Student Lin Meng, here for the research assistant mission!"
The lion's eyes flashed red. Fang Yuan was prepared and immediately strengthened his Breath Holding Technique. A man's gentle voice emerged, and the main door opened.
"Come in yourself. I'm in the living room!"
Fang Yuan entered with large strides. Walking through the pebble walkway in the colorful garden, he arrived in the living room.
"Please take a seat!"
The traditionally decorated living room was full of dark wood furniture that gave off a thick and extremely refreshing herbal scent.
A young man wearing traditional clothes with hair reaching his waist was sitting cross-legged on an almond-yellow cattail hassock in the center of the living room and looking at a pill furnace in front of him.
It was a real pill furnace! It was bronze with three legs and two handles. Patterns of ancient beasts covered its surface, and flames were burning underneath.
Fang Yuan found it hard to take his eyes off of it. This kind of pill furnace must be an antique? It should really be given to a cultivation museum. The pharmacy students now synthesize all their drugs in the lab directly. With a smart-brain monitoring, they can calibrate proportions with extreme precision!
"Your name is Lin Meng? And you're a first-year?"
Han Yunfeng used his spiritual will to look up Lin Meng's information and frowned.
Of course, he did not see through Fang Yuan's disguise.
In fact, Fang Yuan's Breath Holding Technique (Modified) was only capable of dealing with this kind of initial inspection.
After all, the teachers did not have mental disorders. Scanning someone with their spiritual will on the first meaning was the norm, but constantly monitoring someone with it would be psychotic.
As long as he made it through the initial inspection, he could use the normal Breath Holding Technique in the future without any problem.
I'm also lucky… This Han Yunfeng seems to be at a similar cultivation level as Lü Songyang, both below ten!
Level ten was equivalent to ancient cultivation's Golden Core stage. By then, the Breath Holding Technique's grade would be too low, and it would be easy to spot something amiss.
Fang Yuan soon labeled Han Yunfeng. A researcher ill-versed in external affairs, but his status is higher than Lü Songyang… 
"Although I'm a first-year, you didn't specify any cultivation level requirements on your mission. It appears that this mission doesn't put too much emphasis on cultivation level either. I've also memorized the Mineral and Plant Glossary, and I have some experience with the Flame Control Technique."
"Oh? Is that so."
Han Yunfeng was a bit skeptical. He hit the pill furnace with a Dharmic formulation.
Rumble!
The pill furnace rumbled, and an opening appeared. Vapor that looked like rosy clouds rose from the opening, carrying a strong medicinal scent.
Three different colored pills flew out and landed in his hands. "Then tell me… what were the ingredients used in these pills?"
His expression showed that he was waiting for Fang Yuan to make a fool of himself.
Fang Yuan's eyes flashed, and he answered straightforwardly, "The pills' vapor looks like clouds. This is formed after Fire Cloud Sand has risen, so Fire Cloud Sand is one of the ingredients. The medicinal scent has the smell of roses mixed with musk. This is caused by the Whirling Flower Powder… I don't know about the other materials!"
He had intentionally not revealed everything.
"Good! Very good!" Han Yunfeng was slightly excited. "To think that you know even these kinds of transformations in nature. It looks like you weren't boasting about memorizing the glossary. To be able to determine two ingredients, you have very solid fundamentals. The remaining ingredients are Golden Bodhi, Yellow Cloud Beast's blood, and Black Water Mystic Crystal!"
"Understood, Teacher!"
"You have no problems with recognizing materials, so let's check your practical skills now…"
Han Yunfeng stood up from his cattail hassock. "Come and try this bronze cauldron. I've spent a great deal to make this cauldron according to ancient methods!"
"Okay!" Fang Yuan sat down on the cattail hassock cross-legged and skillfully activated a technique.
"Flame Control Technique? Your execution is extremely smooth. Good! Very good!" Han Yunfeng's eyes glowed upon seeing just that.
As expected, the ancient cultivation cauldron is too rigid. Controlling it is ten times harder than executing the technique alone!
Fang Yuan silently made a move, and his hand seals moved at lightning speed. "Rise!" 
Whoosh!
The flame that was about to die out suddenly grew tall, as though it had devoured some sort of fuel.
Strands of smoke licked the bottom of the cauldron before dividing and dancing around the cauldron like little flame snakes.
Suddenly, all the flame snakes amalgamated into a single body and turned green. The flame that was originally red suddenly turned green.
"Pure green cauldron fire? Good! Great!"
Han Yunfeng stopped Fang Yuan. "To be able to control the Flame Control Technique to the extent of producing pure green flames, not even many third-year and fourth-year pharmacy students could accomplish that. Hard work won't get you there, but talent will! Have you self-studied this information? How about choosing the pharmacy department?"
"Teacher!" Fang Yuan rolled his eyes in his mind. "Can we discuss the reward for this mission?"
"Oh! Right, right…" Han Yunfeng patted his forehead. "As you can see, I am researching the ancient ways of alchemy. I hope to compare it with the modern methods of making drugs and write a paper… As such, I need an assistant to watch over the cauldron fire!"
"I see!"
Fang Yuan nodded. He understood that the other party required someone to play the role of an ancient alchemy boy.
Of course, he would need to know how to deal with small accidents by himself.
"However, hasn't ancient alchemy died out already?" Fang Yuan voiced his thoughts.
"Yes, many ancient cultivation techniques have been proven to have low efficiency. A long time has passed… Modern pharmacy leaves the handling of the cauldron entirely to the smart-brain, and it can determine the exact effects. The success rate of making pills is at ninety percent. All we have to do is to infuse spiritual power and use spiritual will to harmonize the drug according to the smart-brain."
The Scientific Cultivation Method had proved that a cultivator's spiritual power and spiritual will were the catalysts necessary to synthesize pills. They were irreplaceable and indispensable.
Without this step, the smart-brain would have long industrialized making drugs and pills.
As such, for pharmacy students, the most amount of practice went into controlling their spiritual power and spiritual will, and cooperating with the smart-brain to produce high-quality pills. 
"The pharmaceutical industry is far beyond being comparable to the ancient ways. As long as there is enough spiritual energy and spiritual will, cultivators in the Qi Refinement stage can produce Foundation Building and Nascent Soul level pills. People can even jointly concoct pills. In theory, with smart-brain's assistance, as long as there are enough low-level cultivators, they could achieve Essence Soul or even Soul Transformation level alchemy techniques… Of course, this hasn't been realized!"
Han Yunfeng said frankly, "But the way I see it, there must be some merits to the ancient alchemy methods. For example, some top-tier drugs can only be produced by high-level pharmacist cultivators because they must be infused with Aural Dao! To put it another way, natural methods… are like… high-tier brain development drugs!"
"I see!"
Fang Yuan nodded. It appears that top-tier drugs are precious not only because of the ingredients, but also the difficulty in making them. Even the smart-brain can't do it. Only top-grade pharmacists can, but with a low success rate.


This is the story of a boy who lived a secluded life in the mountains, tending his farm, rearing his fish, and dreaming his dreams. Eh? Did I suddenly conquer all worlds and become the big boss? Or am I still in a dream?

Notes:
-1- The glossary will be a chronological (not alphabetical) list of terms used in this novel and need a general definition.
-2- The glossary will be - slowly - updated depending on the development of the novel (and my free time).
-3- If there are words which you don't understand or you have some doubt concerned its meaning, you can ask for an explanation here.
- 4- There are words (some are strange) that are used to have the same connotation. (It's confusing, why use this?) Because I wanted to show the variation in culture between two or more species.




The glossary:

* Aractanthrope: a combination of ¨Anthrop¨ for a person or humanoid and ¨Ar¨ from Arctoidea an infra-order of mostly carnivorous mammals mainly used in this novel to means a creature with two physical shapes: a mythical bear-like beast and a humanoid.

* Lycanthrope: a mythological creature, from Greek literary means "wolf-person", a human with the ability to shape shift into a wolf. In this novel is used in the sense of a creature with two forms: one a mythical wolf and the other is humanoid form.

* Anthropomorphic: relating to or characterized by anthropomorphism. Is the attribution of human traits, emotions, or intentions to non-human entities. In this novel, it is used in the sense of a mixture of animal and human physical and psychological characteristics.

* Metamorph: used in the sense of a creature who can change its form or shape.

       The Marigold House was the poorest in the whole Licorne Empire.
       Their county located in the Far East border with the forgotten lands, where the empire had no interest. The Manor was humble, with just a few fields, some peasant houses that barely could be called a village, a couple of barns, a small temple, and some woods nearby.
       It was called the end of the world, and sailors believed that the best ship, with the best climate, will take more than a year to go from the Marigold shore to the other side of the blue sea at the Linear continent.
       Located in a frontier with the Dark mist, the worst place in the frontier with the forgotten lands, it was known as a place for bloodthirsty pirates, wanted vicious criminals, dark magic practitioners, and desperate fugitives from the Empire.
       It was known as a place where you could find anything in the black markets, and mercenaries to do anything either. It was easy to find luxurious castles and fortress from famous pirates, however, none of those people paid taxes to the County.
       To the small Margaret, the place seemed to be a humongous tropical paradise surrounded by a clear beach with white sands from a side and a jungle filled with sweet fruits from the other, filled with wonderful adventures.
       Every day had a new and exciting place to know. Many houses are built using ancient ruins that seemed like pieces of spaceships used as the foundation for the new building.
       The whole place was covered with grass with a pleasant odor and a few pathways made of stone plates.
       Weird animals like akarés, which looked like giant chickens, and put huge blue eggs, nukurus similar to giant rabbits and taraxus similar to pigs wandered free around the place.
       At the entrance of the Manor, it was located the château where they lived and a few houses around an empty place they called plaza, they also had barns and cute cottages spreads around a villa house.
       Behind the château was a stud, with weird animals like llamorses that looked like a mix of llamas with horses and tapiras a large species of an enormous docile mix of buffalo and sheep's that at first were scary to any small child, like Margot.
       Beyond the studs, there were the crops with canchas between, a formation of six identical two-floor round huts, made of stone. That Margot named the "smurf village" because they looked like mushrooms.
       They had a couple of water towers for irrigations and watermills in the rivers grind kozotos, a kind of giant colored corns. The cobs had three feet or more, with pink. purple, and red grains.
       They had a brewery to make chichi and tesguino a corn beer. And finally a couple of woods.
       From the top of the hills, she could see a nearby town in the west, an island with a volcano in the south, and a reddish floating island with a yellowish bottom chained to five hills in the north, and in the east the gorgeous All Blue Sea.
       Sapoti became the unspoken guardian of the countess daughter who expends more time writing and talking in her weird language.
       Gem and her mother Jolly Acacia were with them in their explorations and adventures, amazed by the life in the countryside and entertained by Margot reactions, principally when they knew the breeding, of the chapulines, the red grasshoppers, the Issá ants and gongos, the coconut worms that they eat.
       The little Margot always seemed amazed by any spell people did and became very excited when someone lit a fire or create a hot wind to dry clothes using their natural inner magic. Sapoti amused her with her spell to move small objects; she never gets tired of that. "They call it natural magic. I don't have an idea about how to teach you."
       After she discovered that most of the residents of the Manor were therianthropes who could transform into animals, they started to changing in front of her just to make her smile. Gem, Jolly Acacia's daughter also started to laugh and clap when someone does that.
       They had people who could turn into coyotes, bulls, snakes, chameleons, snakes, roosters, owls, toucans, even a blacksmith that became an elephant man. Also, people made of stones.
       Margot was curious if they were golems, trolls, living statues, earth elementals, or whatever. She only has sure that they were big and didn't turn into humans.
       After seven encounters with the nursery group, the girls gave another six-sided die to her. It seems that every week they did that.
       Since the last time, the icon changed to a six-sided dice rolling around, but nothing happened now.
       Margot opened her inventory and now she has sixteen slots. She filled the ten she had with all the junk she could get and now had two more slots.
       She put the new dice in a new slot and to her surprise, he disappeared. Then she noticed that in the picture of the slot with a dice had the number two. She could put more than an equal object inside the inventory.
       Tired to be carried around she put her usual three points in the constitution and too late reminded that she didn't have this attribute. She put all her points into endurance. She should put in strength but is also absent. Maybe she should put in power again?
       Before she even could regret the difference was noticeable. Her breath was incredible, she did not notice that had problems to breathe until that moment, and the fatigue disappeared.
       Margot walked fast, what usually left her out of breath, then she sprinted, run around and jumps. Hop, hop, hop.
       The girl started to laugh uncontrollably. A simple thing like moving around like a normal kid made her fell more happiness and satisfaction than anything in her previous life.
       She ran like crazy until she was out of breath, then she sat in the grass to see the book while resting a little.
       Now the status had a small circle with a triangle in the attributes. Again she rubbed to see and a small window appeared with a short explanation of the attributes.
       She went back to the beginning of the book rubbing the arrow writing return at the top of the page. "Status and Inventory are fine, let's see what's new in Map, Encounters, proficiencies, and Notes.
       Now the book had two maps, one of the Manor and another one of the places she went, boot with a lot of space to fulfill. Again she noticed the circle with a triangle in some builds, To her surprise, the page turned to a map of the interior of the building.
       She looked to the build. "That's a deposit?"
       The encounter was divided into new submenus; Family, friends, acquaintances, and a bestiary. There were many more pictures of people and animals, even the mosquitos were in it.
       Proficiencies also had new submenus; spells, skills, recipes, and glossary with the few new words she learned.
       "Spell Morph, Natural Magic. Abaeté, venna, primus, cost 10% of magic and stamina, Level one." Margot rubbed the words and even looked at the back of the book. "What the heck that could mean?"
       The "Notes" section had just some colored markers and emoticons. Nothing really interesting at the moment.
       Margot closes the book and walked towards the deposit on the map and saw that was where they keep the crops. She takes out all the junk in her inventory, climb a crate, and started to fill the window that appeared in the air with kozotos, the giant ear corns. The window stretched to fit the ear corn and accepted even more.
       After a while, putting ear corns in the inventory it was full. Thirty fruits in one and two fruits in another one. There was a limit of thirty fruits per slot, but how about the size?
       She got another window from the book and did the opposite. Pulled the window in a crate and it stretched until got the largest crate in the place inside her inventory.
       "Only thirty ear corns in a slot, but a whole crate with hundreds of corns fit inside a single one?" She giggled.
       "Let's see what happens if Ah gets out here." She put the finger in the illustration and pulls out of the figure of the book on the floor like it was a thin piece of paper on the book page. In a fast moment, the image became the real crate. "Ah moved it. With that Ah can move heavy stuff without any effort."
       She tried to put a cart inside but seemed to have a limit for the size. "Four points of endurance make me feel amazing. Next time Ah put all in the points again, or in power." She giggled, "Now let's get some fragile stuff to see if get spoiled in the inventory."
       In the next Morning, Margot Wake up with screams, tormented by painful cramps, and when the pain faded away hoof in the place of her hand, a lot of body hair, crooked teeth, and a goat leg.
       The poor girl expends the whole day like that. Some people like auntie Arum Lily were calm and others like Bonina were scared and suffering more than here.
       After a long and agonizing day, she had a terrible and uncomfortable sleep.
       Sapoti and Gem were worried because Margot suffered a whole day, and everybody in the Manor was startled because she didn't stop talking in that weird language.
       Auntie Arum Lily wasn't worried because of her appearance. She said that was normal, and a cousin had the same symptoms. In a week, she should slowly turn back to normal, plus she will be able to change in venna and primus. However, the "demoniac language", was a reason for concern.
       To please the more superstitious people, your excellence Prudence Yellowbelly, head priest of the god dragon Yellowbelly and headmaster of the local merchant's guild. He had the fame to be the richest person in the peninsula. More than the whole Marigold house combined.
       Margot finds him an interesting man. He wore a similar to a cassock, red and yellow. Obviously some kind of clergy by the reaction of people bowing to him. 
       He seemed to be a frail man, curved, a little bald with the eyes squeezed all the time, almost closed, and talked gritting his teeth in an irritating loud tone with a perpetual smile.
       After a long meal where he ate a lot and talked about products for merchants he goes to examine Margot and nobody wanted to be close.
       Auntie Jolly Acacia comforted Bonina, and Sapoti and Gem hide in the room the exorcism will be made to see.
       Of course, Sapoti hided inside to see and Gem followed her.
       "Sorry, mate. Ah didn't understand anything that ye said."
       "Oh! I know that. Now we can communicate."
       Sapoti almost yelled with surprise. They were talking with each other.
       "Yaldi! ye can talk to me!"
       "Of course the wonderful Prudence Yellowbelly, the high priest of the great and powerful titanic dragon Yellowbelly, can talk with any twisted Pipsqueak. Prepare to be exorcised."

Margaret was a weaboo that only cared for comics, novels, and games. Until she died reincarnated in the body of a small child, daughter if the poorest countess in a fantasy world,
Now she wants to be an overpowered adventurer but is not an easy task and she brought something else with her, that will create a lot of problems.

This is a glossary for readers who are unfamiliar with cultivation novels. Please comment if there are any terms you're confused about and want me to clarify! I'll just update as needed.

Most of the definitions from this website work for my story:
https://immortalmountain.wordpress.com/glossary/wuxia-xianxia-xuanhuan-terms/#misc

Honestly, I would just recommend checking out this website, cause they have everything well organized into different categories. For the most part, the definitions on this site all work, except for the category "Beings and Creatures" which might be different, depending on how the story develops. 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Jianghu - Normally refers to the martial arts world, but I choose to use it as a term that encompasses the cultivation world as a whole (Memories Blossoming in the Cultivation World doesn't sound quite as nice as Memories Blossoming in the Jianghu)

Cultivation - Cultivators are people who have the ability to absorb/use spiritual energy and use it to strengthen themselves. As they cultivate and level up (not unlike a pokemon), they gain longer and longer lifespans. Normally, the younger their real age is, the higher their potential, and once they pass a certain age it becomes harder to advance. The ultimate goal for most cultivators is to eventually ascend to a higher realm and gain immortality. Basically, they want to become a god.

Spiritual energy/qi/power (sorry I'm unable to commit to just one phrasing) - This is the energy of heaven and earth that exists in the natural world and can be richer or thinner depending on the area. Most sects settle in areas with the thickest spiritual energy, so they can increase the quality and quantity of their disciples. 

Pills/Elixirs - Pills are created by alchemists and contain compressed forms of spiritual qi. Can also be infused with a certain attribute/element. Elixirs are stronger versions of pills. The downside to using pills is that it can leave behind impurities in the cultivator's spiritual energy. However, most cultivators use pills, since their talent is insufficient. There are ways to purify spiritual energy after using pills.

Spirit roots - Spirit roots are a representation of talent. All cultivators have spirit roots and if a mortal is born with spirit roots, they can become a cultivator. The purer it is, the faster a person cultivates. Therefore, single element spirit roots represent higher talent and potential than tri element spirit roots. However, the element connected with spirit roots also represents the cultivator's affinity with whichever element. For example, though a cultivator with a single element fire spirit root can use water spells, they will be significantly weaker than a cultivator of the same level with dual wood and water spirit roots. Basically, cultivators with single element spirit roots advance faster, but cultivators with more elements have a more diverse range of spells to choose from.

Tribulation - Clouds carrying tribulation lightning from the heavens that strike (specifically in my cultivation system) when a cultivator attempts to ascend from nascent soul to spirit transformation stage (there may be different types of tribulation for later stages, not necessarily lightning). Since spirit transformation indicates a true transcendence from mortality and is a step towards one's own dao (spiritual path etc), the tribulation lightning is a test from the heavens to see if one is worthy. If one fails, they are forever blocked from the path to immortality.

Heart devil/demon - A psychological thorn in one's heart. Can be one's greatest fear, trauma, weakness, etc. If a cultivator is affected by this, they may have a mental barrier blocking their cultivation. During tribulation, the tribulation lightning not only physically attacks, but also mentally attacks by attempting to bring up any kind of heart devil/demon that may reside with the cultivator's conscious or subconscious mind.

Sect - Cultivation organization typically occupying an area of land that's rich in spiritual qi. There is a sect leader, ancestors, elders, seniors, etc. They normally recruit from cultivation clans and families, as well as from roaming individual cultivators. Smaller sects with less to choose from may look for mortals with spirit roots. Cultivators who have joined a sect are called disciples.

Inner/Outer Sect - Outer sect disciples are those who are less talented and have lower cultivation. Inner sect disciples have higher talent and higher cultivation. The resources are distributed unevenly, with the best going to the inner sect, and the leftovers to the outer sect. Inner sect disciples also may have a personal master. Outer sect disciples are left to fend for themselves and occasionally go to group lectures.

What defines a person? Is it their soul, body, or memories? Is it the choices they make along their journey in life? Or does fate decide?

"Only one thing was certain, her name was Jiang Xiulan. 

Or, was it?

Maybe it was Liu Lan?"

"For Liu Lan, who provided her with a body, she would avenge her death. For Jiang Xiulan, who provided her with a soul, she would regain her lost memories. For herself, who was both women and neither, she would live as Jiang Lan and cultivate to gain the strength necessary to fulfill her goals."

As she collects the pieces of her past, will she decide to leave her past behind or embark on a bloody road of no return? The path to ascension is long and the wheel of fate continues to turn with the reaping and sowing of karma.
