Personal history

Ortuan was born in a nameless middle class family possessing a bookshop. Starting at the age of 4, Ortuan worked at the bookshop by delivering the books to the customers.

He was thought by his parents how to run the shop and was self-educated in political history, science, war strategy, economics (partly from parents partly self-learned), religion and languages.
When he became 13 he moved to live with his uncle. Ortuan’s uncle wanted help hunting and thought Ortuan archery which he mastered very fast and became skilled. In the evening Ortuan’s uncle told stories about the Liravimen who was a respected and influential family. Ortuan had never read of them before and believed it was fiction but it was entertaining to hear about the family who no one dared to disrespect.
At the age of 16, he moved back to his parents at the bookshop to work. He thought it would have been fun to see if he could find traces of the Liravimen and decided to read in some history books without much expectations, but in the table of contents in an old book he found a chapter about the Liravimen but the pages of the chapter was ripped out. He asked his parents about the book but they answered that it probably was one of the many books that already was there before they bought the shop. He continued to search for traces about the Liravimen but found nothing.
Ortuan became consumed in his search and decided to do anything to find them. Since the book who had a chapter about the Liravimen was about the history of the Envoquti family and his uncle often had talked about the interactions between the Liravimen and the Envoquti he decided to become an archer in the Envoqutian army and work his way up the ranks to get closer to the Envoquti family.
