Alyx found himself in the sewers below the great city of Galadon. Its
filth and muck coating him now as he wormed his way out of the great
darkness below. Above he encountered a cacophony, the stench of thousands
enclosed in one filthy place. He wandered aimlessly at first, realizing
the structure of the place, the lay of the roads. He lived by stealing,
fighting with the rats for scraps, drinking from the fountains he bathed
in.

In time, having learned some of the language, he decided that his fate
was calling. He approached the guildmaster of the warriors guild, bartering
service for training, and was accepted as both an student and a servant
for a time. It was there that he began on his course as an adventurer,
there that he learned the use of the blade and mace and knife.

After that apprenticeship, he set about improving himself. His interactions
with other adventurers has since proved his paranoia and suspicions
correct. Three times he has been slain so far by those whose names he
never knew.
