Alfred Tungstan
                Coming of Age
    I was born in the world of Glorantha on the 23rd day of Storm Season in the year 1595.  My parents, Jonathan and Elizabeth, had four children in all.  I was the second born.  My eldest sister, Rebecca, died of the pox when I was three.  My brother Nathaniel, Nate, is four years younger than I and my sister Trudy is 6 years younger.
     Mother and Father own a small house on the edge of Two Ridge in Sartar.    It had belonged to Father's parents before they died of the pox the same year as Rebecca.  Father is a tanner, crafting the finest leatherwork in Two Ridge, if he has to say so himself.  Of course, he is the only leatherworker in town.
