My name is Ikyr, and I come from a noble family. Since my childhood, I had to endure envious looks of common folk, but I have never understood why they were envious. It wasn’t easy at all; I had to fight for anything more than bread. When I wanted to eat a cake, I had to answer correctly ten times in a row. When I wanted to read an adventure book, I had to write an essay about the foreign lands.
 
My life was a series of mundane, boring things, day after day, until I met Pairis, or, how he likes to call himself, Bouřňák. ^^ He brings a light into my gray world; he is the reason I live. Our secret meetings in the groove in the city center are the highlights of my days.
 
My father won’t even recognize Pairis’ lives, and does everything in his power to separate us. I’m in constant battle with him, but my struggle is destined to fail, because he promised my hand to a young boy I have never seen.
 
That’s why we decided to fight back. Actually, when I mentioned it, Pairis got agitated and sprinted to a thrift store to find an old sword to practice. He didn’t have any formal training, but I did, so I taught him what to do with the pointy thing, as he calls it :) So cute, isn’t it?
 
We tried to venture outside together, but that’s simply impossible. Why? As anything bad, it can be traced back to my father. Our family ties with guards are strong, to my displeasure. Our only chance to be together is for Bouřňák to find riches, or perhaps get his hands on a nobility title. What a pipe dream, isn’t it?
 
Despite that, Pairis doesn’t want me to go outside on my own. I could go without him; that much will father allow. He knows I am going to honor my duty to family. He only wants to prevent us from being together; at least outside of the city, outside of his dirty hands.
 
One day I will find an old relic and show thwart my father's plans. Dreams are mine, and mine alone. The future may be unknown, but with enough resolution, I can push through and succeed.
