Role

Chapter 2

The first contact I had with them Empire was when I was quite
young. I was playing on the Outskirts of Hamsah one day when
a few knights rode by on their mighty horses. I diverted my eyes,
trying my hardest to not draw attention. All I heard was the word
'ugly' before a boot struck me square in the back, sending me
sprawling. I looked up and the holy men were laughing and making
jokes at my disfigurement. One of them pulled his blade. Before
I knew what happened, several Blades and a Divine seemed to appear
out of thin air, striking the knights dead within moments.
The Divine pulled me to my feet, brushed me off, and before I
could muster up a thanks, they were gone. From that day on I stared
up at the Palace from Hamsah, prideful that they were the only
ones ever to stand up for such a wretched giant as myself. In
time I grew to see that the Empire were the only ones who not only
protected civilization, but the civilized as well. The Tribunals
confine themselves to such a small part of the lands, while the
mighty Empire strives to keep a watchful eye on all the lands. It
was not long at all before I realized that I must take the Oath,
and strive to see what embraced me forged forward and embraced
others.
