Personal history
Grew up in town called Teufeldorf (Gundarak) and parents moved to Zeidenburg (Gundarak) after the guard incident. Gundarak has a temperate climate with high mountains called Balinok Mountains. They span several Domains. I have traveled far away from it by now..
Younger sister Dari disappeared in the Mists 13 years ago. Danica was 10 when her sister disappeared. They came back with siblings Akam and Dari from gathering some mushrooms in the forest when a rough and ragged looking man with crazy eyes jumped us. He grabbed my sister and dragged her away towards the mist. We never found her again.. It was my fault.. I should have paid better attention. Should have followed her to try and save her.. But I was afraid. Since then I was very protective of my siblings and family..
Gundarak was ruled by mean Lord Gundar, with very high taxes. Gundar was taken down by an aristocratic coup through one of his former associates. The small people don’t really know what’s going on but at least since the end of Gundar, they lowered the taxes and people are doing much better. Last time they took up arms to rise up, it didn’t go well and many were hanged.. I remember my dad talking about it. That is why we don’t eat certain fruit because people were hanged from those fruit trees..
Life in Teufeldorf was hard because of the super high taxes. We were poor with many mouths to feed. When I was 14 I pretended to already be 15 and joined the guard. I was a tall and strong girl for my age so they believed me. That meant one less mouth to feed for my parents and I could give them some money every now and then.
I learned how to fight with the guard and training hard made me stronger. When I was tired I thought of my sister and how I could not defend her, so I trained harder. I’m a good fighter now and strong! I did it to help feed my family and to be able to defend them..
I did all kinds of guard jobs in the city or sometimes accompanying some important people outside of the city. Then 4 years after I joined, I was 18 then, I was on guard duty at night with a soldier. He made advances but I wasn’t interested.. He wasn’t right in the head. He tried to rape me. He got crazy eyes and it reminded me of when Dari was taken. I felt like I was 10 years old again and was afraid.. but I defended myself as best I could and by accident hit him hard on the head. He collapsed and was dead.. I panicked. And I was angry!! Losing my sister re-surfaced and now this happened to me!! I never did anything bad to this guy.. Maybe all men go crazy at some point? When they don’t get what they want??! They are so unpredictable! I hate men!!
There was nobody around to witness that it was self-defense and I was afraid of what would happen to me and my family. Would they get punished together with me? So I grabbed nothing but a morning star and some supplies and ran away! I later wrote a letter to my family explaining what happened and that I’m ok and would try to send them money whenever I could.. I would find a way. But I would probably never see my family again because of this man!! The same as my sister, who was taken from us by a crazy man.. My family finally moved to Zeidenburg because they didn’t want to pretend anymore that I was dead.
I went to another village to get away. Hopefully nobody would recognize me.. I was hoping that, with the man found dead and me disappeared, the rest of the guard would think me dead.. I met a merchant from home and she recognized me. But she was a good friend of my father so she listened to my story and believed me. She agreed to help me pass some funds on to my family so I could help support them. I lived in the village for a year and started to make and sell some small tools and weapons.. I picked up some crude weaponsmithing while I worked as a guard and with nothing better to do in the village I became quite good at it. I made small axes, knives, bows and arrows. They were useful to the villager for hunting so I could make some money selling hunting weapons.
Then one day the merchant Malina sent a messenger: Somebody must have spotted me in my hide out village. Discovering that I was still alive they of cause immediately assumed that I must have killed the guy and now the guard sent soldiers to find and catch me.. I didn’t know who saw me.. Who had recognized me?? Why wouldn’t they even talk to me? Hear my side of the story? Instead they betrayed me and sold me out. I had to get away!!! I’ve been traveling ever since.. By now I’ve gotten pretty far away from home. But I regularly manage to send money through Malina to my family.
Traveling alone I had a lot of time to think.. and I hate men! They destroyed my life since I was 10 years old and my sister disappeared.
I have to go into towns sometimes to get more supplies and to sell some of my weapons.. One time I ran into a fortune teller and she wouldn’t let me go without divining my path.. She said that she saw the sadness and conflict in my eyes.. I was hoping she’d help me figure out what to do with my life.. She saw everything that happened in my life. In my past. But my future was very confusing.. I’m not sure if it represented myself in the future, who I would become: an outlaw who would fight for the betterment of others?? Could that be me? Or does it represent somebody else? I can’t imagine a man in my life that would ever do anything good for others! I wouldn’t be able to trust any men! But the fortune teller spoke of a strong fighter to protect the weak.. Maybe that is me..
I don’t understand my future yet but that’s ok.. I’ll continue to travel and will have lots of time to think on it..
