Long ago, before the Great Shift, a healer was born. The healers name was MORRIS and even before he passed his tenth level he seemed to be great at understanding and sharing the workings of the land around him. For many Yuris he was level ten, helping those at the Farm in Kugnae. Often he would make trips outside the south gate of Buya to battle Tigers and Bears where he would meet people over twice his level, and help them too. Much time passed and my father grew both in Stature and Knowlege of the land. He saw himself as a Beacon of Knowledge, to shine for all those in need. He also wanted more than anything to share his experience and knowledge with all those who would ask, and also to some that would not ask. He was good at bringing the questions out of people, and often would be so far ahead of the subject he would help people to even ask the question before he would answer. Not only was he knowledgeable he was strong in battle. One time King Yuri himself held a Mock Battle in the Vale. MORRIS thought there was no way he could win, but he was a Monk so he decided to go to Vale and dispel those running from Dragons in Terror and Mass vertigo; grant them sanctuary. In doing so he stumbled upon a chest and, against all odds, survived long enough to win first place in all the land. Lathander was there and won second place. This meant a lot to my father, as he looked up to Lathander. After accepting a gift from King Yuri MORRIS talked with Lathander and told him how he was a Role Model. Lathander was humble about it. Some time passed and MORRIS left the kingdom to start a family. He had one son he named Galeon... As I grew up I learned many things from my father. He taught me of the Four Noble Truths and about the Eightfold Path. He also spoke of Nirvana, and what I could do to try to attain it. He talked much of his path, and what he had done. I was taught how to stand alone against event the toughest of creatures. I was taught humility, honor and self sacrifice. At some point my father felt I was ready to walk the path. He gave me a Long spear and pointed me in a direction. He said if I follow the path, I will always be at home. I walked for some time before I reached the Kingdom of Winds. When I arrived, all I wanted to do was rest, but where would I go? So many stories I had heard my father speak. So many names I heard over and over. My father had many guides, and I had many names to search out. It wasn't long before I found the Monk Path. I sent Berig a letter, requesting rank among his Monks. I told him of my father, and of the names I knew. Berig granted me permission to seek guidance if anyone would teach me. Knowing so many names, I picked a guide that I did not know. I chose Sorriso as a teacher, and she chose me back. I learned many things from her, completed many Quests. One day I saw her and told her I learned Restore, I had defeated the mighty Storm. It was that day I was walked home. Sadly I lost Sorriso as a guide, but LiShen was quick to pick up where she left off. LiShen is now my Guide and Elder. I feel happy to train under her leadership, as some of my fathers guides were also Elder. To me it seems like a complete Circle as I sit and write this inside the Monk Circle. *Monk Student* *Galeon* *Son to Morris* |
