He was born in the Kingdom of Norland as the son of two highlanders. He is an only child. His father Askael and his mother Rosazula were farmers, and they were very good at it, so naturally, this skill was inherited by him. For a great part of his childhood and adolescence he worked on the fields, which made him gain a lot of experience in it, although this dedication to the craft would ultimately lead to his hatred of it. His best friend, Gallahan, was very adventurous. He took him to trips into the deep forests and to dark caves. On one of those trips he developed his fear for drowning, after getting stuck under a treebranch while trying to cross a river. This friendship was one of the sparks that lead to him looking for adventure later in life. His father went to battle in the Suthican war when he was little and died in it. This made him lack the thrill for battle, but he does not hate it either. One day, he woke up, but did not want to move, because he realized there was not any real reason for his existence. He hated how his life had been, boring and plain. Taking inspiration of his best friend, he went to look for something, anything to put everything in its right place.
