My name is Mar, just Mar, I was once a proud citizen of a third world country in good old earth, but one day as I was crossing the streets, I felt weakness take over my body and my vision went dark, the next thing I know I am in a grass field watching over creatures that look like sheep but had one horn in the middle of their forehead and a scaly tail, I would be lying if I said I didn't panic but I always had a strong mind, so after calming down I looked around me for clues,

after searching for a few minutes, I found a envelop beside a rock I was sitting on previously, during my search I became aware that I was a child around 10 I guess, I had bright red hair, I was also very skinny, and was wearing a rough cloth robe and leather shoes; if you want to call it that, but it was just a peace of leather that was tied to my ankles with a thin rope, and I had a big walking stick, so I can only guess I am a young poor shepherd in an old era, so steeling myself I opened the envelop 

/*****/

Dear Mar,

Mar will be your name from now on,  anything that binds you to your previous life was erased including your name.

You have been transmigrated to this new world of magic and fantasy, in this world magic is real and true, if you master it you can rise above all life, or you can continue to live in the same way you are now a poor shepherd and die early.

This world is extremely dangerous, there are monsters and beasts that can kill you just by standing beside you; there mere presence is fatal to normal human like you, and there are also old and ancient races that have a far better understanding of the world and magic allowing them to build great civilizations,

Unfortunately the human race lagged behind, the humans are also considered an ancient race, but they lacked the talent that other races had at the beginning and have fallen to be slaves of the other races, and even after many eons and the rise and fall of many civilizations, none of them were human,

to this day they remain slaves and even with all the heroes that rose from time to time, none succeeded to break the shackles of humanities weakness, I have given you a gift, use it as you see fit or not at all. I have given you vision, true sight and all that comes with it, you can now see the truth of the world and understand it to certain extent, and as you grow stronger you will be able to understand more and see more, after 10 seconds this letter will vanish and your gift will be activated.

yours truly ******,

/*****/

With that the letter crumbled to dust and few memories were unlocked in my mind, they concerned the language used in this world, some common knowledge, my situation and position in this world, and then finally, my perception of the world changed,  I could see more than what I used to, colors were more vibrant and if  I concentrated the world slowed down to me, and then when I focused on anything I could understand what they are, like the name by which they are referred to and many other details, 

for example the sheep thingies, they are called horned scale tail or in the native language Tibi, they are edible except for the tail, it is poisonous to humans, but the the horn is useless to all but humans, if it is grounded into powder and mixed with a common herb called Lilo that looks like a clover but is white in color, it becomes a medicine that if consumed for 2 years once a month would double the bone density and strength, the Lilo though, is a weak laxative so it isn't consumed by humans and the other races,

this medicine is recommended to be used only 3 times in a lifetime once as a baby --1<->3 years old--, another as a teen --10<->16 years old--and the last time after you finish growing -- 20 years old and older--, consumption after that would not have much effect, but could help aged people maintain their bone strength from declining with age.

The crux of the matter is that the eyes of truth gives me the ability to see and understand a variety of things, among them is information about ingredients that could promote rapid growth of a human being, and seeing the situation of the humans in this world, I will need not only to be strong but to also have a band of companion that are also strong, I need to start a rebellion and for that I will need an army, one that could be raised through resources and in a short amount of time,

so with a goal in mind I started to plan out  my steps, and what I need to do, magic from what I understood is the number one choice for anything but the magic that is used by humans right now is very limited and doesn't have a clear road of advancement due to being incompatible with us as a race since it is copied from other races, and if I want to research it myself I don't know how much time it will take or how many people could use it,

so that leaves me with only a body forging plan that is based on magic and medicine, both needs to be researched, the medicine path is easier since I will need to only scan any material and see if there is a possibility to use it to strengthen the body, and at the same time find a way to used magic internally to strengthen the body, and once I raise enough strength I will be able to start building my force and slowly in a few years I will have an army to occupy enough land and resources to have a small kingdom, what to do after that I will leave it to future me.
