Sw3fps

Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”

((How do you respond?))
-Well, old hag, it hurts just to think about it, my story is so unfair and terrible. I lived until I was 18 with my parents in a small village, everything was beautiful until pirates attacked us and killed my parents, the pain I had then I still carry inside me. All these years I wandered alone through nations and cities, trying to learn all kinds of skills to do justice to my parents. Until I realized that there was no point, and if I had taken revenge on the pirates my parents would not have appeared again, it was meaningless. All this time I felt guilty and a nothing because I could not save my parents, and I still feel that way. Old hag I am a nobody who could not protect my loved ones, although I believe all this about myself I feel deep down that I am wrong and that I actually mean something.

All story: Well, there was once a child named Swefps with a loving and very religious family who lived in a small village by the sea. He was alone with his parents but that didn't stop him from playing with the other children and having a lot of fun. The children played wars all day long with wooden weapons and shields, believing themselves to be great warriors, most of them dreaming of becoming one someday. Years passed and the family was happy and without lack of anything, the child had grown up and became an adult following his father in his work as a boyar, the other children's also became farmers or some even ended up being in the king's army. Everything was fine and dandy but not for long...
On a rainy day when no one was working except Swefps who was working hard to build his own house, he saw warships in the distance, he thought they were his childhood friends who had returned home but Sw3fps was far from the truth. Those ships belonged to some pirates ready to plunder the village. When they reached the shore the pirates blew a goat horn to announce their arrival. People were scared and ran here and there. Swefps was scared to death by their arrival and ran straight to his parents' house to protect them, but it was too late, when he got there his parents were no longer there, they had been captured. Swefps ran to the beach hoping to find his parents but when he arrived he was terrified, his parents along with the other civilians were made to kneel and blindfolded, in front of them pirates were looking at them choosing who were good enough to become slaves. After deciding who would become slaves, those not chosen including his parents were beheaded. Swefps watching from a distance from the beach was devastated, he fled into the forest while crying non-stop swearing that he would do justice to the world whether it required peace or war. 4 years passed and Swefps explored cities and nations that he didn't even know existed, in this year he learned how to fight and take care of himself. On his way he arrived at a swamp town, he wandered through it and entered a tent where an old woman was waiting for him, he did not know who the old woman was and felt threatened. The old woman told him to sit down and tell her his story, Swefps with a little fear began to tell his story with his voice trembling.
