Origins
He didn't know who his parents were. Growing up in a forest, his only memories
were of a kind young woman who used to visit him. After joining the covenant
he preferred to stay in his hut away from people. Larrin, the beautiful woman,
came back into his life twenty-five years later, still looking as she did all
those years ago. (It turned out that she was a wandering magus attached to no
covenant and just looked like the faerie that looked after him in his
childhood.) His past caught up with him, he was the only heir to the Cato
estate and gave up his responsibilities at the covenant to live the life as a
knight. He married Larrin and had two beautiful baby girls, Larinda and
Cassandra. He died with a terrible secret that will be buried with him.
