His parents had fled here to escape the oncoming hordes of Iblees's minions, the undead hordes. They believed they would be safe away from the cities and towns, and they were right to think so, almost. Living in a mountain was not safe, to say the least, winters were bitter and harsh, the cold pierced through the thickest layers of clothing, and rock with its' freezing grasp and icy grasp.

'' His father fell to the ground, ridden with pneumonia, Grevis rushed over to his father, falling to his knees my his side.
