Mikelo Taigan

Mikelo Taigan, or just Mikelo. Is a young pilgrim in the city of Ancontinople, Uraka has always dream of being in a larger community of people after his migration from Rathnir to escape The Soleannen Empire. Currently setting up business and trade to provide for himself and to the empire of Uraka.
== Early Life ==
Mikelo was known to be raised in the Tagain Crater, an area where the first religion he practiced was introduced. He mostly spent his time as a farmer and miner to provide for the community. But turns out, that community was numbered... each day, he witnessed many of his fellow brethen moving away leaving him and a very small number of people left in the community. 
From what he heard, is that they did not like the fact that they are safe in their own crater and wanted what the people above had, power, resources, and dominating wars! So they all left their simple lifestyle never to be seen again...
The prophet of the religion told him to migrate to soemwhere else safe and to make a living, he also reminded him to never abandon the faith and to always know that the Creator is near and always with him on the journey. He witnessed the death of the prophet and now the settlement was... a ghost town...
== The Soleannen Empire ==
While migrating through the lands of Rathnir, rumors had spread through the area that a powerful empire was out to conqure new lands and take it to feed their greed. Mikelo never heard of these people and even tried to enter one of their cities to see whats going on. He found himself in a place very unwelcoming from the empire as they dumped him in the horse stables having a hard time to get out.
This made him feel uneasy with those of people of the empire and their religion as a whole. Mikelo never wanted to hate anyone but circumstances are such that it made him uneasy around them. It took a while to get out of the stables making his escape out of the city. He went far and wide across Rathnir and saw wonderful buildings and cities while travelling, he stumbled upon a merchant and this sparked him to be a merchant due to his kindness towards the young player.
== The Nations Fighting For His Approval?! ==
After for some time in Rathnir, Mikelo migrated to Eldham and was amazed on how different Eldham was to Rathnir. There was no time to be amazed by that when all of the sudden a large group of leaders from different cities and empires were fighting for his approval to live with them in their lands. No joke, Mikelo cannot handle the over flowing requests from these leaders at that time (Thank god it cooled down XD) and was amzed that he did not even asked for a place to live in. What a blessing!
There was a leader who shine the most, a Lexarch of Uraka, Queegharious, approad the young migrant and offered him a place to stay in the empire. Mikelo was a bit nervous due to the fact that there was another leader who offered him a place in The Ashtrocan-Wendenreich Empire and he got accepeted. He felt shy because of his manners towards both kind rulers of these two empires and kindly rejected the offer of the Lexarch.
The Lexarch insisted in convincing him to come join Uraka after some little discussion and a bit of refuesal from Mikelo's part. Afterwards, he accpeted the offer after saying that he will be given a tour of the empire. They, along side with another new member, venture out to the nether and the poratla of Ancontinople. Mikelo was astonished with the city and even met the locals of The Heartlands, he was given a job, per request, to be a farmer with other farmers in the area to supply food. Mikelo was happy in his new home, but worried if this will become a barrier between him and the kind ruler of another empire he is in...
== Travels Around The Empire, Meeting a New Friend! ==
Mikelo took some time to explore around the empire, he is quite surprised that the empire is mostly centered in one continent so it was easy for him to see what it holds to explore. He passed by many provinces especially those down to Falk Reach. He went as far as The Pale and met up with Ramkin, the two had good relations and Mikelo promised to return soon to visit.
One area stood out the most in his travels, well two. An abandoned area where a town use to be and a monastery that stands high with beautiful blue hues. He wanted to make contact with the owner of the area to get in touched. He left in signs hoping for a response, the next days went by and the call was answered. The two started chatting and made good connections, they both tell stories, and silly events that would come across their minds. It was a great friendship that would eventually lead to a more greater bond in time...
The two, Mikelo and Yorg, eventually talked about the abandoned town, Angel's Landing, and discussed what to do with it. Both agreed that it was an eye sore and neede to be removed or to be converted into a bustling town. The two planned out what to do and shared insights on future projects, it was a busy and exciting moment for Mikelo. As preparing for the next step into the town development, Yorg called over Mikelo about a person in his future town. Mikelo was not surprised at first until it was mentioned to him that he wanted to build a town. Mikelo went NUTS!
== Dispute Over Angel's Landing ==
Yorg and Mikelo met up the stranger, Chickpea and talked over about the whole situation. It was all good and the three decided to build the town together, sharing insights and ideas on what to build and how to build the town. After a few minuets, another stranger approached Mikelo, Stella, got into a discussion with all of them in regards to Angel's Landing. Another person came into the party and this all went down south.
The three strangers argued that this place was owned and in the territory of Stone Guard while Yorg argued that nobody was planning to take this place while knowing it was under the rulership of Creamy. Yorg also claims that Mikelo has more right to take the area as such, and it was even approved by Creamy to take it as his. The latter party gave in proof that the area was not in the ownership of Creamy and was never ment to be taken by others aside those in their territory. It was a hard moment, Mikelo wanted to establish a town to revive the olden religion was making monet for trade. Now, it is being taken away from him all at once. This place, Angel's Landing was the heart and sould of Mikelo's quest and now it is being challenged and stripped away.
Yorg took Mikelo aside and spoke with him. It was all up to Mikelo whether he would leave the idea of making a new home for the religion and for trade to better the relations in the empire. Becasue if he were to fight for that, then there would be a small fight in the empire causing higher powers to be involved in a childish gain. With a heavy heart and tears in his eyes, he let go of Angel's Landing. Deeply saddened by the lost of land, Yorg offered him a place to build in his island but Mikelo was too shy from the kindness of Yorg to him, so he decline. But that will all change...
== The Rising of Events! ==
After the whole situation calmed, Mikelo went on his normal duty as a farmer, gathering more crops to his storage. Upon exploring Grisa, he stumbled upon vacant shops and decided maybe to set up here. He wondered who would be the leader of this place and searched. Just seconds came in a jolly player with bright energy, Lumi, was the one incharge of Grisa at the time. She gave him permisssion to set up shop and Mikelo went with excitement to gather materials for the shop. After two days of hard work, The Mizari Food shop was built and ready for business!
Not long after, Mikelo made a charcoal house to make charcoal for the market to be sold as fuel for the people instead of coal. Though he may be delayed on the production due to how easy yet time consuming it is to gather trees without the risk of dying from heights or be eaten by phantoms. But as the days go by, he has a decent stack almost ready to be sold in the market. On December 1st, Mikelo went farming for some crops and then found a strange berry that he never harvested before. It was yellow and orange in color, which was really pretty he thought, and the vines of it was just majestic. He took this as a sign from Hesto that he was gifted to him. He praised Hesto for such a gift and cultivated the crop.
Mieklo wanted to build another shop near Yorg's island and cantacted him if it was alright. Yorg agreed and Mikelo joyfully returned to the land without any hurt or harm. He does repect the restrictions of Yorg regarding of the shop and farm as long it is not large or be it an eye sore to look. New people started to settle in, and a silly event had happen. Somehow, one of the new settlers went into the shop and purchased one item, which supposed to be a place holder for the shop, was bought. It was akward that they both discussed that there should be items in the shop while accepting the fact that he might have been scammed unintentionally by Mikelo. That is one lesson learned, make sure to have items ready in your shop.
While in the Nether, Mikelo wanted to speak with a fellow player across Eldham so decided to take the fastest transport. A big struggel was upon Mikelo as he has no idea how to get there neither knows how to navigate. He saw a distant player and thought that he might help him. As it turns out, it was a bandit, Yoru1E. Good thing nothing important was with him other than two diamond tools. While everything went down to despawn went he came back. Pretty much salty when he lost those items. Queegharious gave him new sets of diamonds to compensate the lose. 
After some time with Yorg, Mikelo learned that he is getting married soon. Mikelo wanted to be in a family so he asked Yorg if that is possible, Yorg and his fiance adopted him and became their son... and pet? Well, due to being a cat person he got that silly title from Yorg's future spouse to be and laughed all the way through. His now soon name Aulian once the marriage proceeds.
== Becoming a Deacon ==
On December 22th Mikelo went to harvest some crops and was met with Queegharious. He inveted him to see the new citadale being built. It was currently being built but it was more massive at ground level, the two exchange conversations along until Mikelo mentioned about religion. He explained to Queegharious that Meat Hammer is very compatible with the olden faith he had, this was a short and meaningful conversation and made him thought of the whole talk. After a while, He agreed that this religion Mikelo has would be a sect of Meat Hammer crowning him as Deacon of the Sect. Mikelo reached to his home in prayer to thank his deity for the blessings he has bestowed upon him, he has been in that state for an entire month...

== The Saddest Return ==
On the 11 day of March, 2022. After a month of prayer, Mikelo rose from his prayer place to feel something odd. The streets of Uraka were quiet, the houses were locked, and expanded from the least time he stared at the open forest. He ran upstairs, in a panic, what just happened? The city of Saffron was never this quiet? He ran out to get his cat, which is trap inside his home, no choice he ran to the Land of St. Auberion.
Upon reaching the land, the place had upgraded to better styles of building than before. The monastery was larger and complete, there were gardens and fountains, what he could not have believed his eyes. He called out to his friend, Yorg, the two finally met after a long time. Yorg gave Mikelo a tour of the land to show him how much has changed. The land has turned into a city, in his perspective, it was magnificent. Mikelo being homeless once again, remembered that Yorg has a spare house for him to stay in, promising that he will fill in the rooms with furniture and decoration.
As the two chatted along, Yorg brought up the topic on what has happened to the empire after that month. It turns out the once great empire of Uraka was now split into half, the northern part of the empire is under Hark rule, the rebellion, while the southern is part of the "Arktania" whom he is still not yet aware or knowledgeable just yet. Hearing the news that his once homeland after Rathnir was now gone grieved him so much. Even though he is sadden by the lose of his once safe home, he is happy and grateful that Yorg allowed him to move into his land. He still has a home to feel safe in from rebellions or from other empires. Yorg brought in some news from the now Dominus Lexarch, Queegharious, inviting them to join in the rebellion and Hark. On Mikelo's part, he wants to be independent for safety reasons and the added flaw in being bad at pvp... who knows whether this will change his mind but for now, he is concerned more for his safety and the safety of others at the moment...
