I can tell you my tale..." /> <string id="backstory_a.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=FybsZ7yK}My father was an imperial cataphract. Alas, he died in battle against the Aserai, and I was placed under the local archon's guardianship. He had eyes for my father's estate, modest as it was, so he arranged for me to be married to his cousin." /> <string id="backstory_b.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=omEoa2q7}But this cousin... I would not marry that man! He was a boor, a drunk - never there was a night that he did not reek of wine, never a morning that he did not reek of vomit! But a cataphract's daughter is not some chit you can marry against her will. I took a horse from my father's estate - my horse, legally - his old sword, and rode off." /> <string id="backstory_c.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=j7cE9DTZ}So, here I am. Perhaps I am not the most experienced of warriors, but I can learn. I cannot go back - I learned that the archon filed suit that I stole a horse - my own horse, by right! - which shows you what a cad he is." /> <string id="response_1.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=tx6L29wu}You've got spirit, I'll give you that." /> <string id="response_2.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=O3Pkql2y}Takes more to being a warrior than a horse and a sword, young one." /> <string id="backstory_d.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=UWWgML2g}So, here I am, looking for a captain under whom to serve. I know the ways of an archon's court, and I know how to ride, but I am looking to master the ways of the sword. And if I learn my trade well, perhaps I shall one day reclaim my birthright!" /> <string id="generic_backstory.spc_wanderer_empire_11" text="{=wRS9yqyx}I fled a bad marriage. There are many like me; I meet them in every tavern in Calradia. I am lucky in that my father was a cataphract, and taught me to ride and fight before he died, and I suppose that's how I must make a living." /> ``` > &emsp;&emsp;<br> ![[encyclopedia_calradica.gif|center|300]]<br> >*“A massive `Mount & Blade` wikipedia.”*<br>About [Encyclopædia Calradica](About-the-Encyclopædia.md)<br>About the [Project](Project-(Pillar).md)<br>About the [Author](Horseapple.md) <br>&emsp;&emsp;
