It is a mundane life, and one he does not care for, since he prefers scholarly pursuits. He is obliged to aid his father in the family business, and there is no visible path for a different future. However, that all changes one night when a strange traveller enters the King’s Rest inn. His appearance prompts a violent response from the inn’s patrons, but they are stopped by Harkonian soldiers. What makes it even stranger is the appearance of Brahm, one of the great leaders of the Kingdom of Harkon.
