The Long and Arduous Story
You are in many stories as the good, the bad, and the ugly, all true. Your story takes you back hundreds of years, through many generations. You are familiar with the local lands and many tails. However, none can live to your dark and heinous upbringing, which you see as a horrible part of your life. You are making up for the bad you have done slowly over time.
