The first five years of Heroth life were filled with misery. The old village where he grew up never liked him.
Their hatred was so potent that Heroth and his father were forced out to live on the outskirts of the village, forced to face the elements on their own. Sometimes, he and his father hid in the house to hide from the wolves and the weird things that walked in the night.
Those were the scariest nights for him, but he could tolerate it all due to his father who never left his side.
But all good things come to an end.
Heroth remembers that day very well. He had tried to enter the village to sell some harvested herbs, but he was thrown and bullied there. And in his anger, he beat up a few kids, causing a great issue which might have resulted in a severe punishment for him.
