Life began for me in the forest. I never knew my parents. I lived off killing squirrels and foraging food wherever i could
find it. One day I wandered into a druid's grove, unfortunately he wasn't very friendly, he started chasing me around the
forest now known as "the black forest" being a druid he knew his way around the forest pretty well. I tried as best i could
but suddenly ran into a basilisk. Being of young, I knew not of what it was, the druid soon arrived and got frightened and
ran off. Before my eyes the basilisk turned into a beautiful druid indeed, she winked at me and asked me where my parents
were, I told her all I knew, she then took me to her grove and taught me how to survive in the forest.
One day the forest was invaded by what the druids called "dark knights" and all druids were called into battle, my adopted
mother told me to run away southeasternly until I reached a city known as Ashtan. I bid her farewell and did as I was told.
When I reached the gates of Ashtan a man approached me and took me around the arm, he dragged me off to his small house and
beat me until I did what he told me. He made me as his assasin, making me killing his enemies. After a year living with
him I became frustrated, I backstabbed him, and took all his posessions. I went to the market and bought food
water and clothes with all the gold. I then came back to the beginning, the black forest.
Only being one year after the invasion, I wandered it for a week or so. I became restless, my rations running low and the
forest surroundings ripping my clothes. I prayed everyday to the gods for salvation... One day my prayers were noticed by a
paladin. He didn't seem the talking type he just scooped me up and brought me to the city today known as Shallam. He
enrolled me into the choir in the church which still stands and enrolls kids who were like me everyday.
When I was grown I knew I owed the gods and the church, I became a paladin, I tried my best to be like the man who rescued
me from the forest. One thing about me is quite different from me and that one man, he was very quiet and seemed to be much
to himself. I am quite the opposite, I made friends very quickly with everyone in Shallam, and it seems my reputation to
this day is im a very talkative person, but im always there to rescue those lost in the woods.
Penned by my hand on the 12th of Valnuary, in the year 256 AF.
