THE ARRIVAL
The storm was passing. It had broken a few oars, and cut a few of the braces tied to the sail, but the men stood resolute. The winds were roaring from the south; a bad omen, the common folk said. But these weren’t common folk. They were the chosen of the Ulvegr, the chosen of Bykrimr, and had a mission. They would find Atlas, whatever the cost.
These men had prepared for this journey for months, years even. They had gathered all around the bonfire of the great hall of Bastagr, some of them coming down from the mountains and into the valley for the first time in their lives. The gathering of a century, the elders called it. The decision was made that they’d expand the reach of the Ulvegr race in Bykrimr’s homeland, the land of magic and gods where the Descendants walked. And now they found themselves in one of the boats.
“LAND.” cried Haraldr, the navigator. His voice squeaked with both dehydration and excitement. They could spot a large island in the distance, with hills that drastically went up in an unnatural manner. The folk began to mutter about the presence of magic in the area as soon as the formations became clearly visible to the crew. The lord captain Yungir calmed them.
“This is it, my fellows, this is the destination. Welcome home, say the gods, let’s meet them.”
...
Suddenly the smell of whale grease and fish had become sweet, and the perilous winds had become breezes of romance, the people had begun to fidget nervously. The oncoming silhouette of the island harkening back to the first hours after they had sailed from land. Four months. Four months they sailed. An entire autumn sailing. Some of the women had to leave their children behind, some of the men their wives. But here was the chance of something new, of a chance to walk among the gods and to experience the magic that had given birth to legendary king Bykrimr, and the homeland of the fabled dragons, which had wrought the lands of the Ulvegr.
“It was true, in the end, young eye.” Grumbled Haraldr as he walked down the rows of seats, approaching Yungir. “Those old maps told the truth, here I thought they were works of mad old men.” The response he got was a scoff, followed by a quiet chuckle by the young captain. Yungir was a tall man, son of Szeveryc, the king of Bastagr. Copper-hair, deep blue eyes, traditionally braided hair and a large, ornamented beard. He tugged to the white bear fur he had hunted as a rite for a good and successful journey. Haraldr gazed at Yungr for a long time, he himself had aged quite a bit on the trip, with his grey hair having turned pearly white, but he was focused on getting the new generation safely. He was the last of the Greythorns, One last addition to our legacy, thought the wise Haraldr.
Land was now just a few minutes away, and now they could see the rest of the continent; it wasn’t just one island, it was what they had hoped for, a large realm. They could even see some people fishing at the shores, who scurried off at the sight of the foreign ships. They had arrived.
Haraldr smiled.

Reingard was born in Kraken’s Watch, in Vailor. A family of pious traditional farmers of raev descent, he was raised to follow in his parents profession, but as the Riga War began, he had to enlist to the military, fighting for whichever side offered the most stability, first Courland and later Carnatia. His father died during the siege of Kraken’s Watch, and he began taking care of his mother, who had fallen slightly maddened to all the stress of war.
After they arrived in Axios, Reingard promised his mother he’d always provide for her, and began looking for a job. He built a small farmhouse in the land of Haense and made his way to Karlsburg. It wasn’t much later that the rebellion would rise, and he’d take up arms again, going to fight with the kingdom of Haense against the rebels. After the war was over, Reingard just wanted to settle down with his mother, find a wife and maybe have kids, but he needed a job first, so he is now trying to find housing in Karlsburg so he may work in the city, and provide for what’s left of his family.
Personality Traits: (what are your character's quirks?; habits?; likes and dislikes?)
