Full Name: Eli 'TinySquirrel' Aedem Gender: Female Age: 27 Eyes: Blue Hair: Though my hair has a colorful dye, do not be fooled! My natural hair color is blonde. Birthplace: Shilla Birth Season: Spring My story starts when I was but a young girl in the land of Shilla. My mother was a youthful peasant and my father was a wealthy Merchant. One day my father left on one of his regular travels to various other Merchant guilds and, unfortunately, he never came back. My mother grew weary after the first year of his absence: she could not care for her three children. In the end, my mother left us late at night. As the eldest of three siblings (and the only girl), it was my duty to watch over them. My brothers, Blurr and Wharf, were known to make mischief in our hometown. May times, they would come home with deep wounds for me to mend. It grew to a time when they began leaving the protection of the guards, and my ability to heal their injuries. One day I decided to follow them to see what they have been up to. To my surprise, they were attacking adventurers! I thought to myself, what god could drive them to do such things? They were standing back to back when I saw the first glimmer of flame. It was as though the fires of hell rose up from the earth to consume their souls. I ran to them in horror. Their flesh burnt badly and I used every ounce of power I could muster, but to no avail. I cried out for help, and my pleas were quickly met. A strange man in a sort of straw hat kneeled beside my fallen brothers. He chanted few words, and a great light shined out from their ash ridden bodies. Instantly they awoke, unharmed. When I looked up to thank the stranger, he was gone. A few years passed. I trained harder to be ready for the next time danger came to my brothers. During my training I sought out this mysterious man and was approached by a young woman. She said few words, "Travel to the Dae Shore. Travel till you find a grand hall. This hall holds great beauty. There you find what you seek." I quickly departed, and in a few moments I found myself at a temple. There were many people around. There were teachers, and many students, sitting in a meditative stance. I did not wish to disturb them, so I made my way inside. Inside this temple, there were many books along the wall, and a large symbol carved into the floor. As I continued to look around my eyes caught glimpse of a bright light. To my amazement, it was a beautiful woman. Peace seemed to flow from her body to mine. I approached her as if some unseen, intangible force drew me forward. Her hand reached out to me, and in it was a scroll. I opened it and began reading the contents. In large flowing calligraphy it said "The Wandering Monk." From that moment on I have been a devout follower of the noble truths and have never once strayed from the path. ~TinySquirrel |
