Alfwin

Born in a village in the Kingdom of Haense to a hunter and his wife. Walther spent most of his childhood in his parents house, helping them with housework and reading a couple of books about certain subjects that were available around him, which weren’t really many. His father taught him how to respect those around him and about the world with how dangerous it could be. While his mother taught him about virtues, and she educated him for a couple of hours a day, his parents preferred to homeschool him. Walther spent little time outside his house because his parents won’t let him wonder around for too long. Since Walther cant go outside much, he couldn’t meet people from different places, and he only had two best friends around his village.

One day, when Walther was 13 years old, his parents told him that they are all moving to another village where they could seek more opportunities, they packed up their stuff, said goodbye to their friends and family around the village, and they set off to a small village in the Holy Orenian Empire. During their travel to the small village, Walther had seen so many interesting things on the road, different people from other places, different scenes of the nature around him, and many other things. All the sights Walther had witnessed made him interested to travel the world and to adventure it, since he was never used of going outside during his other years, his travel on the road to the small village made him ambitious to see more of whats out there. Walther kept thinking that there’s probably more books that exist than the ones around him, more places that are different other than the places that hes so used to everyday, and more people to meet rather than the others that he meets everyday. When Walther and his family arrived at their new home in the small village, they settled in. His father had more to hunt and more to provide to his family, and his mother had more to cook and to work. While for Walther, it felt the same to him after a week, no new books that parents would give him and only more housework to be done. It was the same everyday life for him, except this time, he had none of his best friends around to talk and to have fun with. The people in the small village tend to keep together to themselves, but Walther’s family often showed respect to them as a way to make more connections with other people. Walther however, still couldn’t go outside for a long time. Walther grows more ambitious as each year goes by, waiting for the day to become of age, and to ask his parents if he could go out and be free.

On Walther’s 18^th birthday, it was a big celebration for him and his family. Their baby boy is now a young man. Walther, educated by his parents and learned much from their work. Confidently asks both his parents if he can go out and adventure the world, but Walther’s parents were also going to tell him, that he is now a man, he needs to find his duties as a man, and cannot stay in the house forever because his father understands that once a baby bird had become of age, the baby bird lives its own life and finds one, the mother bird cannot watch the baby forever. Walther was very surprised to hear all this coming from his parents, he thought that his parents would keep him in that house forever, but now, it seems like his parents support his decision to travel the world and to adventure into the open. After Walther’s 18^th birthday, five days later, he is ready to step outside into the world, his parents helped him prepare, his father gave Walther his first hunter coat when he began hunting and his mother made him boots that could help him in his adventure. Walther begins to take a couple of steps outside his house into the road, and as he walks away from his house, he waves back to his parents that were also waving back to him, and then he walks down the road to begin his adventure.
