My past: Now my past is a sad tale to tell. I grew up a happy boy,living a normal life. I had very nice parents.My father was in the guard and my mother worked at a bakery. I admired my father for being in the guard.Everyday we would practice dueling together. Then one day my father ddint come home from patrol. We waited days but he never came back.My mother went into a depression. She wouldnt do anything so i was on my own.I got many jobs to support us. I worked as a blacksmith's helper, carpenter's helper, and i helped with the town farm. Needless to say,I had my hands full. At the time i was only 14 so it was tough. When i turned 17 my mom died. I didnt want to stay in the house,so i got my dad's spare armor left . For the next 3 years i kept my jobs and lived on the street. At age 20 i decided to join the guard, like my father before me. Sadly the captain of the guard just laughed at me. He said i was just another fool who wanted to be in the guard for money and the house you get. I tried showing him my skills witha sword but he just laughed more. I left there angry and sad.So the next 5 years of my life i lived on the streets again. I was miserable, and yet angry.I needed a job but the guard is what i wanted to do. Since i couldnt do that i just kept my street life. Finally i said to myself "Tom you cant keep living like this, this isnt good for you". So at the age of 25 i set out into the world of Aegis.
