Henri would grow up with his other two brothers, Pierre and Koffi, in a small-time peasant family farm, located in Lorraine. They would raise high amounts of pigs, chickens, and cows, while also growing wheat. One day, it would end up being revealed that his eldest brother disappeared. Soon enough after this, his youngest brother, Koffi, would also mysteriously be seperated--driving Henri into absolute uncertainty on the conditions of his beloved brothers. About two months before the Imperium of Man's success, the farm would be hit by artillery and consequently would catch fire. When artillery hit the barn, for which Henri was in, depressed and managing hay bales, the barn would suddenly erupt into a violent fire. Upon Henri successfully escaping the barn, through a process of luck and provided farmer-boy strength assisting him, he would have suffered direct thermic burns to his right eye, blinding it permanently.
As of the time Henri's story begins, he is missing his brothers, the place he called home, any beloved belongings, and an eye. He now wanders across Lorraine, attempting to reassure himself that...he at least still has his brothers, even if not in plain sight...right?
A secret for Henri that is unbeknownst to him is due to his mothers un-faithfulness, all of his brothers are really half-brothers.
