"I come from an old wooded home just out from Croust, my family quite large for our homes size. But with tempers raising, I seek a new land to build my own home. Growing up, I learned the many.. many ways on how to plant vegetables and fruits for our labor. I still to this day find myself having nightmares from whence I had been buried in the dirt and sand to learn 'where our energy comes from.' I don't know much outside of Croust, there is so much I have yet to learn. I hope I can one day make amends of my sisters and brothers, rekindle what had once been snuffed out. I know our home was full, too full, but I hope they find a little bit of me still left there." He sounds distraught toward the end of his telling, a quiver of his hands can be seen as he returns to being quite reserved.
