Braum
The Tundra
Two months. That was all that he had left in the Tundra. All the time that he could still spend out within the snows. It seemed almost absurd to think about, but he had made his promise to Ivar and he would be true to his word.
Growing up he had never thought that he would ever leave Kjos, much less his entire homeland. Yet when his friend had come speaking of grand plans to journey across the world...he hadn't been able to let him go alone. Braum had seen Ivar grow up, had watched the misery which surrounded him. He'd done his best to combat it, to help his friend, but he knew exactly why he wanted to leave.
So they had made their plans, and had sworn they would leave with the melting bay in the spring.
That meant he had two months. Two months to figure out a mystery that had plagued him his entire life.
Who was he?
The question was a constant in his mind, asked first when he'd noticed that he was...different than others. He was no exile, but his parents were adoptive, and they swore his father had found him on the edges of a battlefield when he had been but a babe. It had not bothered him truly until he'd grown, and on his tenth name day he had been nearly as tall as his father.
So the question plagued him, and so he had finally decided to get an answer.
That was why he was walking through the Spires of Kjos, why he was making his way to the battlefield his father had found him on. Because maybe, just maybe, he could start to understand who he was.
