Role

Chapter 1

Glad to see you again. Today I want to return to old days, when I was younger,
Sun brighter and the world was small, easy and colorful. Well... it is hard to
pick anything to start with: lots of happy memories filled my head. Still...
let's start with my parents. Dear Father, kind Mother... you never stopped or
restricted me and all of my various passions. Except the enforcement of my
reading and writing lessons and I am very grateful for that. I havent become
a writer nor I am an active reader, but that let me to discover in myself an
unpredictable, but very urgent need to write something. That helps me very
much to understand, to analyze or just to cry in waistcoat, in a moment of
sadness, or to share my moments of joy. And since I never show my "writings"
to somebody, I, for a long time already, speak with you, my fictional partner.
I have no close people, from the time I left home, except of, maybe, that
funny gnome Digrid, you are my most trusty friend, my close brother, my kind
sister.

But well, let's return to our muttons: my parents. Father had and armor shop
and mother was a seamstress. They gave me a lot of freedom, so I tried almost
everything our town could offer: practicing in fencing with my father, hunts
in forests with a member of tanner guild, tanning itself, "spying" and
"retrieving" with an old father's friend from thieves guild in Galadon. Once
I even decided to become a priest and managed to sit silent and calm whole
prayer (my last one) and many other things. I must admit was not really good
in anything, except fencing, that I love to practice even now in my current
Travels and, besides, found it very handy.

Time of an adulthood passed, but I found about myself only one thing for sure:
the borders of our small town too small for me. Seems my parents knew the same,
so when I decided to start this hard and inconvenient talk during the dinner,
my father granted me 10 gold coins and one of his best swords and my mother
presented me handmade backpack, simple, but durable set of cloth and her
blessing. Thank you, mom, dad, I am sure you are all right.
Here I say "bye" to you, my friend, as my short halt ended and I have to move
forward. See you soon.
