Hengki rushed out of the classroom. He had enough for today. Especially
when the lesson was so gloomy. "How The World Came To An End" had been
the name the oracle had given today's part of their education.
Outside Hengki had to shield his eyes from the sun. But even that helped
only to a degree as the sunshine was reflected on the water around him.
Nonetheless, he found his boat soon enough. It was one of about thirty
that anchored at the school. It swayed as Hengki jumped down and for a
moment he fought to not fall overboard. Like the rest of the village, the
school was on a platform that was about three feet above sea level.
After untethering, Hengki cast-off. He was quite eager to go to a special
place. As he rowed out onto the lake, he saw his classmates heading for
their own boats. For a moment his eyes were caught by Tala, the oracle
that had just taught him about the gloomy past. Hengki could have sworn
he saw disapproval in her gaze to him. As if she knew what Hengki was
about to do. Nonetheless, he rowed onward.
The village kept getting smaller and smaller. It was one of the few
features that broke the wide surface of the lake. Here and there a hut
poked out of the surface. Standing on big beams of wood. Each one won the
hard way. By going to the shore. As he thought about it Hengki saw
something flash at the shoreline. A robot. An animal made purely out of
metal. They roamed the land and hunted everything. Even humans. Only one
place was safe from them. The lake and the small community that settled
on it.
As he rowed further he was reminded of today's lesson. It had been
mankind that created the robots. With technology too advanced to
understand today. At least the Oracle believed in it. Hengki doubted the
whole story. They build with wood, leather, and twine. To make something
with metal was abstract. Then to get it moving even harder to think of.
He would have dismissed the oracle outright if it hadn't been for her
uncanny ability to predict the weather.
After rowing for most of an hour he arrived at his intended target. One
of the forbidden spots. Here the water wasn't as deep. His anchor hit the
ground at maybe forty-five feet. After making sure his boat was secured
Hengki jumped overboard. As always the water was cold, but not as much as
the rest of the lake. This wasn't the only strange occurrence around
here. As he dived a few feet down he saw an eerie glow at the bottom of
the lake. This was the very reason the villagers were afraid to go to
this place. And in their fear, they forbid this place.
After a half dozen of test dives, Hengki thought himself ready. He took a
last few gulps of air before he committed himself. Diving as fast as he
dared. He had trained for it in other spots of the lake, but it didn't
make it any easier as the familiar pressure builds around him. He came
closer and closer to the glow and it grew in intensity. Now he noticed
how strange the glow was. It cut off in the middle. Drawing a strange
rectangular shape underneath him.
As he hit the ground Hengki pushed himself closer towards the light. He
arrived at a cliff. Or so he thought at first. As pushed over he saw the
truth. It was a house. Under water no less. He did see light and air on
the second story, but not enough walls on the outside. Maybe the
villagers had been right. Witchcraft. How else could air exist there
without spilling into the lake?
For a moment he contemplated abandoning his self-chosen mission. But the
notion didn't last long. A few kicks of his legs and he arrived at the
barrier. Pushing against it didn't help. There was no way for him to get
through.
His lungs started to burn and Hengki knew he should surface soon. Just as
he was about to swim up a thought came to him. Hengki pressed his face
against the barrier and looked sideways. His guess was right. Glass. The
whole second story of the house was surrounded by glass.
He thought about it as he swam upwards. Glass was rare enough. He had
seen a few pieces in his life. A glass mug, some pots, and a bowl. Yet
all these had never been this clear. So colorless that one could mistake
it for being invisible. The ancients must have had means to produce glass
that weren't possible in the era Hengki lived.
He broke through the surface of the lake and filled his lungs with new
air. Hengki saw his boat not too far away. Yet he didn't swim towards it.
What he had seen only fanned the flames of his curiosity. After paddling
for five minutes Hengki dived down again.
This time he pushed further down. If the second floor of the submerged
house was cut off by glass then maybe the first floor was a better
option. At first, Hengki found only glass again. He nearly missed the
opening as he saw it. The ground floor had no light so it was hard to see
that two of the glass panels were shifted to the side. These were smaller
two. Maybe they had been doors, Hengki reasoned.
As he swam through them darkness closed in around him. Unfamiliar shapes
surrounded him. He was about to turn around when he saw a soft glow
illuminating a staircase. He remembered seeing the second floor dry.
There must be air, he reasoned to himself.
Arriving at the stairs he came up to the air. Cautiously he breathed it
in. It smelled different to Hengki. Not as fresh as the air above the
lake, but not bad like he expected. The stairs and the floor he had swum
through was overgrown with algae and plants, yet as he stepped up he saw
an immaculately clean floor and walls. As if someone had cleaned them
just before Hengki's visit.
The walls here were strange. Definitely not wood. Smooth and hard. And
quite solid he guessed as he knocked against one. The house was big,
maybe even larger than the school building. It was filled with walls made
of glass and whatever that other material was. It filled him with wonder.
Many of the furniture was made of glass too. That and metal. So the
oracle had been right. Once mankind had the knowledge to form metal.
He explored room by room. Their purpose eluding him. But they all were
illuminated by lamps without flames. Had the ancients mastered magic? The
Oracle always told him and others that there was no magic. Only advanced
technic. "Science" she called it. For Hengki it always had been just
another word for magic.
At last, he arrived at a room that was surrounded by glass walls tinted
in the color of fresh milk. Within he found a bed. A rather strange one
too. Much of it was below some glass. Stepping closer, Hengki saw the bed
itself was made of leather. But one so strange he had never seen before.
Under his hands, he felt no creases or folds. Not even pores. What animal
was large enough to provide this much skin that didn't show folds where
muscles stretched beneath it?
As strange as the bed was, Hengki knew he had to try it. To lay on
something the ancients made. He stripped most of his clothes. Then
crawled into this strange bed. It felt strange. Too soft beneath him. Not
bad and kind of relaxing. For a moment he closed his eyes.
Then there was a hiss. Hengki opened his eyes and they widened in panic.
The glass had closed around him. He pushed against it, but it didn't
budge. Then lights appeared around him. Some even floating in the air
around him. They took the form of symbols. So foreign Hengki couldn't
decipher them.
Some changed constantly. Repeating the same ten symbols over and over
again. One place moved fast, and every time it had gone through all ten
symbols, the symbol next to it changed. Was it counting down? Hengki
pushed stronger against the glass. Leaning with all his strength against
it. Then the symbols flashed.
Hengki held his breath, but nothing happened. It took him a few moments
to relax. With the panic gone, a tiredness overcame him. His last thought
was that he shouldn't fall asleep here. But the pull was too strong.
Darkness claimed him.
* * * * * * * * * *
Hengki slowly woke up. Feeling refreshed as if he had slept in. One of
those times his mother wouldn't wake him up early for school or to go
fishing. As he opened his eyes that relaxed feeling vanished. His eyes
took in his surrounding. It all came back to him in a rush. The submerged
building of the ancients. The strange sight of what was in it. The bed
that trapped him.
Now he saw it open. As he shifted to slip out of it, he felt wrong. As if
his very own body felt different. He lifted his hand so he could see it
and started to scream. That his scream was wrong made it only worse. It
was too high pitched. Wrong. Just like his arm. Too slender. Not his own.
He took a few panicked gulps of air before looking down his body. What he
saw made him scream again. More in confusion than in panic.
He had breasts. And hips wider than his own. His whole body was
different. It was if the ancients had punished him. Robbing him of his
maleness and giving him the body of a girl. It took a long time for him
to calm down. Only one reason made him not spiral out of control. The
ancients had punished him. Maybe he did something wrong. Offended them.
There could be a way to appease them. Earn his old body back.
As he slipped out of the bed his first steps were unsteady. Hengki needed
a moment to find his balance. It was a new one. This body didn't behave
like his old one. Close, but not quite right. The most obvious change
that bothered him was his new breasts. Hidden underneath some strange
clingy material. They shifted slightly with each step he took.
He paced around the room slowly. Trying to get used to them. There he
discovered the next surprise the ancients had in store for him. As he
stepped close to some sort of commode a mirror extended. One so clear
unlike everything he had ever seen. The reflection showed him a girl that
could have been his sister if he had any. She looked remarkably like him,
yet subtly female.
But that was not what threw him off. It was the garment he was wearing.
He recognized it. It was the clothing of the Oracle. The very one that
hung framed in her home. His head spun with thoughts about what it might
mean. It filled him with new panic, but also hope. Maybe the Oracle knew
more.
As he stepped out to the corridor new strangeness threatened to overwhelm
him. It was the same corridor, but there were a lot of new lights
floating around. Many of them the same strange ciphers he had seen in the
bed. He even saw pictures. They usually floated near entrances to rooms.
Showing people in such details that no human hand could have drawn them.
Slowly he made his way to the stairs when he noticed something else. One
of those symbols followed him. It was always there. Wherever he looked it
was in the top left corner of his sight. As he thought about it, others
like it appeared. More symbols that affixed itself to Hengki's view.
Concentrating on the wrong one brought more light. More confusing symbols
and pictures. He closed his eyes. Willing them away, but even there he
saw them. Haunting him.
Then he found one symbol. It was like a cross. It made the lights vanish.
He hunted for it and slowly the lights vanished. Until only one remained.
The one in the top left corner. There was no cross for that one.
Truly freaked out by now he ran to the stairs. He didn't take long to get
used to the water. It felt strange to him anyways. As if it was different
for his new body. Nonetheless, he pushed forward. Taking some deep breath
before diving into the water.
Hengki just passed the door to the building of the ancients when he
noticed the next mistake. His lungs burned. This was not the body he was
used to. The one he and trained to endure long dives down the lakes.
Panic filled him and he pushed towards the surface.
He didn't come far when the burning got worse. He wanted to breathe. His
body needed to. Desperate he looked up and frowned in confusion. He saw
his boat and many others. There might be every boat of the village there
on the surface. And divers. They gestured towards him.
New hope filled him and he gave a few kicks. THen his lungs gave out. He
breathed in water. Struggled not to. It was in vain. In his panic, he
nearly didn't feel the hands grabbing him. Dragging him upwards. Then
there was air. He tried to breathe, but something didn't allow it.
Someone heaved him onto a boat and there turned him to the side. He threw
up water and gulped for air. That was all he could do for a moment. Only
when he calmed down he heard the many voices around him chanting in
celebration.
"A new Oracle was chosen. Blessed be the Oracle."
Hands lifted him up. Carried him from boat to boat until he saw the
weather aged face of the old oracle.
"Rest my child," she told him gently. "I will tell you all, but for now
rest."
That sounded heavenly to Hengki. He fell unconscious a moment after they
sat him down.
* * * * * * * * * *
Hengki woke to the sound of a fireplace churning on wood. For a moment he
was confused where he was until his eyes found the framed clothes of the
Oracle. The same one he still wore himself. With it, he knew. It hadn't
been a dream. He was a girl now.
"You must be confused."
The voice made him look around and he found the Oracle sitting at a small
table. Sipping tea of all things.
"Come sit," she offered. "Have some tea and I explain everything."
Hengki nodded. What else could he do? Standing up he decided to keep the
blanket around him that he woke up with. It took him only a few steps to
reach the offered chair.
"Why did the ancients punish me like this?" he asked as he sat down.
The Oracle laughed sharp and loudly. It made Hengki cringe.
"They didn't. You did," the Oracle said after calming down. "Ever heard
the saying 'Curiosity was what the catfish got caught'? It was your own
curiosity that led you down this path."
"I don't understand," Hengki truthfully admitted.
"The ancients had a word. 'Transgender'. Do you know what it means?" the
Oracle asked, but continued in the same breath. "Of course you don't. You
see one of the pearls of wisdom of the ancients was the fact that they
knew that some souls were born in the wrong body. One with the wrong
gender. Those souls they called transgender."
"Why would the ancients think I was this- 'Transgender'," Hengki asked.
"You most certainly were not," the Oracle admitted. "Though now you might
be. You see the building you found was a 'clinic'. Their word for a
healer's hut. This 'clinic' was built to help those they called
'Transgender'. They build two devices. Looking like beds. One to change a
woman to a man and one to change a man to a woman."
"And I found the wrong one. It was my own curiosity that doomed me-"
Hengki mused out loud. Then he jumped out of the chair. "Then I need to
find the other bed."
"Sit down," the Oracle said softly. "The other bed- It is on the ground
floor and doesn't work anymore. Believe me. I tried."
"Why did you-" Hengki started to ask, but then his eyes caught the
Oracle's garment on the wall. "You are like me."
"A long time ago, yes," the Oracle agreed. "I too was once a young boy.
My curiosity stronger that the warnings of my elders. I too laid on the
bed. As did every other oracle before us."
"That's why the village was chanting," Hengki mused.
"My 'implant' alerted me of your change," the Oracle explained. "So I
prepared the village to welcome you appropriately."
"What's an 'implant'?" Hengki demanded to know.
"A small machine. One inside of me. And inside of you. Don't worry. They
are harmless. They talk to other machines and allow us access to a wealth
of information."
"Can it control the robots that roam the land?"
"Sadly no," the Oracle said with a deep sigh. "Those are broken. Mankind
couldn't fix them in time. But there are other machines." She pointed
upwards. "High up in the sky there are those the ancients build to
predict the weather. With their help, I make my prophecies. A duty that
will soon fall to you."
Hengki gave a sad nod. "So that is how it is. No way for me to become a
boy again and now I have to assume the role you lay before me."
"I understand your bitterness," the Oracle admitted. "I was once like
you. Curiosity led us down this path. Now we are cursed with more
information that we would have liked. It is our duty to keep the
knowledge of it alive. When mankind fell they shunned technology. It is
our duty to erode that superstition. To one day lead mankind back to its
former glory. It might still take generations."
"There will always be that one boy to curious for himself, right?" Hengki
asked.
"It did so far. Well, now. There is a lot more to teach. In time we will
get to know each other well. You can call me Tala," the Oracle offered.
"That was the name I have chosen for myself. You should choose a new one
for yourself soon too. Then I can start teaching you the language of the
ancients. They called it 'English'."
Hengki nodded. Didn't like it one bit. But Tala was right. He had chosen
it at the moment he gave in to his own curiosity and ignored the warnings
about the forbidden places. Before him lay a long road. One that might
become lonely. Yet he saw no way around it. It was what it was. He was
now a girl and the Oracle's apprentice. And with that, he had to live
with for the rest of his life.
