Dares never knew his father, he had moved on before his birth. Dares's mother remarried soon and few years later Dares had a little brother and a little baby sister. Childhood was not a happy time, however. His stepfather was a cruel man and favored his own children in every way. Because of this, Dares spent quite a lot of his time away from home, wandering in the woods. On one of his trips, he met a man living alone in a cottage, good distance from the village. There wasn't even a proper path there from the village, but the cottage was still filled with surprises. Inside, walls and shelves were filled with valuable objects of art and rare books. Dares couldn't but wonder how had it all gotten here. Soon it was all forgotten, when the old man started tutoring Dares in what he knew. Even though Dares knew that his mother would not approve, he still learned everything he could, just to spite his stepfather. Before long, Dares and his tutor both noticed that he had quite a talent for these skills. This renewed Dares's interest in practising. Also the villagers started to notice the change. Silent, withdrawn boy who everyone picked on was becoming a thief sneaking in the shadows. This led to his step father teaching Dares a lesson, with a forceful fist, more than once to make him stop, but it only managed to fuel his interest more. The death of his step father gave Dares something else to think about for a while, but interest was resparkled and the studies continued. In a few years it started to become evident, that the village started to grow too small for Dares with his new skills. As soon as the possibility presented itself, Dares accompanied by few of his friends left the village and sent out to discover the world. |
