Chapter 1 (cont)
The catch to these simple challenges was that the baby is two weeks old, and can not be taught anything. If a boy fails anyone of these tests the baby and its father will be banished from the tribe. The mother will stay to give birth to more offspring. The Croapians keep every girl born, but only the toughest boys get to stay. Surprisingly most of the boys pass. With the genes these boys have been given they are naturally strong. Lidan was a perfect boy a chip off the old block. Nothing seemed to be stopping him from passing. Mirendin was a very proud father he has a daughter who at the age of 14 have already given birth to some of his greatest young warriors. Now Mirendin has never had a son so he never went through the tribal test. Lately his nerves have been off the hook with only 14 days to see if his son will mature enough to pass. A day before the tribal test Mirendin decided to take action. When his wife left the hut he feed Lindan a muscle building potion. This was a mistake.
