Grimfargo is the son of a humble tavern owner. His family's tavern was located on an isolated crossroads, far from civilization. Although the frequency of travelers was not excessive, Grimfargo well learned the family art of making mead and farming as a self-supporting livelihood. He took advantage of conversations with strangers to train his tongue to sell, if not also to learn stories of distant lands and kingdoms. Of one kingdom that strangers mentioned over and over, he could not forget: the Commonwealth of Sutica, a place not often subject to war, therefore not subject to business declines. So he defined his goal: to go there to open his own business and earn many many minas.
