DoubleUAech

Aech was born in the The Holy Orenian Empire, as a kid through his teenage years his parents forced him to stay home and not leave the boarders of the Empire. Aech wanted to see the world and learn more about what lies deep in the heart of Almaris. Eventually after saving coin and getting proper education, he was able to grab books at one of the nearby school campuses and began learning about the history of the continent. After learning the base of history of the continent and cartography, he wanted to see more. He grabbed his texts/tomes and scrolls, then decided to go out on the land of adventure, to learn more "out in the field". He met with a group of three individuals in the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska who were also scholars like him and were taking a trip to the Cloud Temple of Almaris. While traveling during the night the group was ambushed by roadside bandits. They took their things and stole their coin, and with a final way to send a message the bandits slaughtered the three and Aech stood from the other side bound and heard their cries and screams as they died in front of him. He remembers the word given from the leader of these bandits: "I keep one alive to tell their story." After quicky venturing back to the Empire, he stayed in solitude. Because of the guilt thinking it was his fault and haunted nightmares, he asked for someone to help him find a way to make it seem as if his scholarly party left after a long-time adventure and they wanted a break. In doing so he succeeded, and his recollection and memory of his old friends was lost in the depths of his mind.
