Naomi - The Very First Contortionist

This is a gift for my very dear friend *Yuni ~

This boy is from an Oriental Kingdom ruled by this Prince: [link]
In that country live furries, elves, fairies, kemonomimis, demons,
nagas and so many other species. They all have a place to live
in peace and harmony, but sometimes, fights happen, like in many
other countries.

Anyway, this boy is named Naomi. His parents wanted to have a
girl and because the boy looked very effeminate when he was
young, the parents decided to give him a girl name. But now his
friends are more used to call him Nao or Omi. The Prince is the
only one calling him Naomi because he feels close to him and finds
this name very pretty for such a beautiful boy.

Nao discovered very young that he was way more limber than his
friends. He could bend and touch his head with his feet, which was
very impressive for the children of his age. Then he trained this
very special skill he qualified of gift. The Prince was told that there
was a very talented boy in the country who could bend so far he
could sit on his own shoulders. So the Prince invited this mysterious
boy to his palace and begged for a proof of such a skill.

Naomi came to the Royal palace and showed the Prince what he
was capable of. The Prince almost fell in love with this beauty and
the way he could move and bend. He discovered since that day a
passion for contortion. Naomi was the only one able to do such
things with his body. Nobody else was able to bend that way. The
only limber things the others could do were only very simple splits,
nothing impressive. Young children were doing it for fun, but no one
was able to do contortion, except Naomi.

The Prince told him about a tiny village called the Oriental Tribe. He
shared that secret with Naomi and asked him if he would be
interested in becoming more flexible. Naomi was all happy at this
proposition. So the Prince came to the secret place in his garden to
see Aorev and asked the tiny elf if it was possible to welcome Naomi
in the Oriental Tribe for some days to teach him things about
contortion. Aorev told him it was not possible to reveal the place of
the Tribe but said he could find an arrangement. He discussed about
that with his brother Aaulin and with his teacher Emaryl and they all
came to the palace to teach Naomi some things about this so precious
and beautiful art that is contortion.

Naomi needed a month of intense practice to be able to realize very
flexible and extreme poses, but he managed to pass the tests and
became the very first contortionist in the furry Kingdom.
