Hello, make youself comfortable as I tell you a tale. A tale about myself, Cruces Samseri. I was born many Yuri ago, about 15 Yuri's before I entered these kingdoms in Yuri 64, fall. I am now 35 years old, and still aging.
My birth place, even my mother, and all family besides the Monks I now live with - have been long forgotten, or never known. Only stories I somewhat remember remain etched into my memory from my early life. I only remember being an orphen and being told that my mother had died while I was being delivered. No sorrow has been the affect of this for motherless is all I have known. I was shown into the wilderness of these kingdoms by a Ranger by the name of Antimodes. He taught me to survive out alone in the wild. This was not for me. I quickley, within a few days, moved into the city walls of Kugnae and begain my life there.
My life in Kugnae is all I can clearly remember. I was drawn to the Monk way of life, and Buddism, at first by curiosity, and then by passion, after I had experienced my first meditation. A guide by the name of Sorriso noticed me at a gathering, and took me as a student. I studied hard under her, and eventually made my way towards my destiny. I was still young at this time, and hadn't reached the final insight of 99 yet. I trained hard at first and attained the great honor of Wasabi, and I wore my new dye with pride.
Shortly after that, things went a bit array. I began to wonder who I was, where I came from, why I was raised with no family. With these questions came only one answer - and that was to search. I left the kingdoms for a great period. The path had changed, and many of my family of Monks had forgotten me.
I came back after I don't know how many moons and begain my training again under Sorriso. I had discovered little but my last name, Samseri. I could find no living member of the Samseri family. When I returned, however, I met a young Barbarian named Helblindi. We hit it off and eventually sealed our bond of friendship in blood, becomming brothers. For several Yuri we entertained eachother by watching ourselves grow, watching our crafting ablilty improve and watching our bodies and minds expand. One day, though, Helblindi never returned, and never will.
The passing of my brother lead to the passing of my guide, Sorriso, so I asked another teacher, a new one, LiShen, to guide me and she graciously accepted. My training under her has been more meaningful and more modivational than any training has been for me. And now, I wear a new dye in place of my Wasabi dye, with even more pride, it is the color of the Monks. I hope my training will never truley end, and that I will continue to learn, untill the day my body and mind shut down, and they put me in the ground.
