The Kervallen family had always been involved withe the Orenian army, they were not famous soldiers. Edvard's parents were both soldiers of the army during the War of two Emperors, where them both died in the battlefield, leaving a 3 months kid alone in the world.
Born in a small town in the Orenian Empire, Edvard never knew his parents and from the age of 6, which is when the family that took care of him threw him out of their house for being a problem, he had to live off his own ingenuity and cunning, stealing what he could and asking for money in the street
At the age of 7, the episode that marked his life would occur as a stray dog attacked him at night, leaving him between life and death.
It was then that his Master would find him, an old man who carried a long bow on his back, and after healing him he would teach him the art of archery.
Every day in the morning he dedicated it to practicing with the bow and in the afternoon he stole and asked for money indiscriminately, until one day 3 years later he did not know more about his teacher, he only found his long bow where they always met to practice.
To this day, he makes a living doing shows with the bow and robbing the naive who dare to approach his show.
This trade has brought him more penalties than benefits because more than once he has stolen where he should not have and has gotten into pretty big problems.
After making a small bow, which in a normal person, might seem an act of courtesy, but in Edvard it was more of a way of looking the other person up and down, looking for what could steal from him.
"Good morning, my lord, look, I have come to this city from the Orenian Empire in some kind of special mission"
That was partly a lie, yes, he travelled there from the Orenian Empire but not in order to do a special mission, but because he had been exiled after being involved in a series of robberies.
"And what is that special mission if I can know?" asked the knight.
"Nothing in particular, he just came to do some shopping in your market, I hope that in a short time I will be back at my house" Edvard lied to him, made him another bow and slipped away among the crowd, he already had a good prey to steal from, because under the knight's robes he had seen something shine.
