Role

Chapter 6

Artenno Maq'tur was born in Hamsah Mu'tazz. His
father, an ambassador to the Jewel of the East
from Galadon and a priest of Lord Marcatis,
belonged to long-lived line of diplomats. His
mother, a noble maiden from Darsylon, belonged to
the ancient line of Darsylon nobility. The
blessed union between Artenno's parents did not
excite either side of the family but was civily
tollerated in public and ruthlessly criticized
behind the closed doors. Artenno was left an
orphan in late childhood, his parents disappearing
without a trace, nowhere to be found. At a young
age, Artenno wondered whether his parents were
murdered or simply left, unable to bear the
scrutiny of raising a half-blood. He often prayed
to Gods of Thera, for his parents to return and
even chose to follow the path of the robe that was
once walked upon by his father, but, alas, none of
his prayers were ever answered.
