1 Jolin Fae

Tripoli city was the most centered city between Tycoon, Talupa, and Tutlera city. Tycoon city was the closest, with Tutlera being farthest to the east and Talupa to the south. Tycoon city was north.

Tripoli was a relatively free city, with not many old customs still being followed and composed mainly of middle class citizens. A few noble houses were still left. One of them was the Faery house, whose lord was lord Jacobin Faery and possessor of the riches. His sister was Falin Faery, who married into a middle class man by the name of Joe Jaquin. They had five children, the oldest inherited the name Fae from his mother, and he happened to be a boy. He would be named, Jolin Fae, and would be the only child who would inherit the Noble derivative name because only the oldest child from the non heir line could inherit the noble name from the Faery's if that person was a female.

Jacobin Faery and Falin Faery were the last true descendants of the Faery house, and having Falin's firstborn inherit part of her noble name, ensured continuation of the line in case Jacobins children died or refused to be the heirs and lords to the house as well as harmony. Falin Faery died Shortly after giving birth to his 5th child and left her husband Joe Jaquin alone with his children. This was the year 134 of the 5th month. At that point in time Jolin Fae was 10 years old. Jolin Fae's next siblings were twins, the brother was Fatrin Jaquin and Juliet Jaquin at 7 years old. Then Geraldine Jaquin(5). The Fifth and last child was named Falin after her mother, he was a small but strong baby boy. Fatrin and Juliet had always been close and would be the first to inherit the family wealth, which wasn't as vast and great as that of the Faery but good enough to live comfortably.

For the next 3 years, Falin Jaquin had grown on Jolin who was now 13, an age that allowed him to move into the noble house of the Faery's. However, he had to think about this hard and long, because he really didn't want to leave Todler Falin behind, or any of his siblings who were not yet of age to help his father lead the house.

At the noble House of Faery, Jacobin Faery was distraught after he found out about his beloved sisters death. He only had two children; Matrin Faery(13) and Melissa Faery(10), at the time of Falin's death. Now at 16, Matrin was the main heir to the Faery house, and he had to work close together with Jolin to strengthen their house,because that's what his father wanted, unity. Matrin was an honest, strong willed and fair guy. Trained in both combat and estate matters. He wanted Jolin to move in. The Main heir and the helper would wear a ring that allowed unity between them, making a betrayal impossible and unlikely since the Faery house was known for its faith between each siblings and close relatives. This characteristic of theirs and general ring quality had allowed them to survive till this day in Tripoli.

However, this is not a story about Matrin and house Faery, but that of Jolin Fae.

Having carried the name Fae, ensured Jolin was able to train at the combat guild with only the best combat instructors at the tender age of 8. He would often steal peaks at Matrin, who would be finishing his training 30 minutes after Jolin's class started. He had

only met him a couple times when his mother would take him with her to special house ceremonies. She used to visit more often but by the time the twins were walking around, she didn't half much time. He knew his mother had been a fighting prodigy as a child and had been her brother's co-heir,helper, friend, arm and shield. That was, until she met Joe Jaquin. Falin and Jacobin Faery had to see each other less. After all, Jacobin had his own wife to tend to, who was obviously happiest when Falin married. Joe Jaquin, was also a descent of a lesser prominent Noble house, but they were middle class now, but one of the strongest in that category. They were known for their strength and teamwork capabilities among their ring wearers.

Jolin Fae had grown closer to Grace Falander after his mother's death because she reminded him of her. Grace Falander was the eldest of 3 girls and a baby brother. Grace was a prodigy herself and apparent heir and therefore future lord to House Falander even if she was a female. Because her house status was noble, she and Jolin Fae had the same fighting/combat class; except the teachers were more strict with her and she had to pass the estates class as heir to the house with almost perfect scores.
