But if you would judge me for what I do, you're welcome to do so, but I do not care to hear it." /> <string id="backstory_a.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=JBW0WsH7}My clan was among the last of the Khuzaits to live out on the open steppe, moving from place to place in the old way. It was not a large clan; you would not have heard of it. It became even smaller when our encampment was surprised by an imperial patrol, and our flocks slain and scattered. Those of us who survived were forced to refuge in a village, under a larger clan, whose name you may know, but I shall not mention it." /> <string id="backstory_b.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=z9CN2ibp}They protected us, but they treated us with contempt. We were told to hew wood for them, to bring them water. We submitted. For the sake of our old, of our nursing mothers, we submitted. But it was hard for the young men to take." /> <string id="backstory_c.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=CxZWemhO}Perhaps I was prouder than most, or quicker to anger. One day one of them insulted my lineage, and I insulted his. I was angry but my words were ill-chosen. Our protectors said they would no longer protect us if I remained among them. So, my clan banished me." /> <string id="response_1.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=XRUotzSi}Indeed. Misfortune does not mean you must submit to humiliation." /> <string id="response_2.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=pQVFVqa9}As well they should have. Those who curse their protectors deserve no home." /> <string id="backstory_d.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=crRb9ZhF}A man must eat. It's easy to find traders on the steppe and take their horses. But a man, unless he wishes to live like a beast, must also have people to buy those wares and give him food and blankets. There are merchants here, in the towns, who will buy horses without asking too many questions, and sometimes have other work for me." /> <string id="generic_backstory.spc_wanderer_khuzait_4" text="{=RewhujIa}My family lost their herds and land in a dispute, and so we pledged ourself to another clan as our protectors. They treated us like servants. Once I stood up for myself, and ended up killing one of our 'protectors' in a fight. They say that is a great shame to do, but it seems that whatever happens to you, once you've tasted defeat, you encounter shame." /> ``` > &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;
