Aalton Scyllar

## Biography

### Childhood

As a child I spent most of my time studying the ways to rule. As that was very important skill for me as a kid. I learnt the history of the Merling Species and of our values and tradition. With the time I had left on my hand I used it to play with the kids my age, that often played near "The Golden Ark Museum" in The Golden City where we spent our time playing ball games and telling each other stories we heard from our parents about the sea serpents that live outside our city.

I also learnt and important lesson from my childhood as I visited my home town of Scrallingar the place of my great great grandfather whom founded the Scyllar Family Tree and settled us in to a Noble class. As I visited all seemed fine the town was blooming and the water was perfect. Nothing to out of the ordinary, all of the sudden a raid from the Sea Serpents took us all by surprise. I was but a helpless kid being dragged away by a guard. As they did I saw my cousins and fellow friends being slaughtered. My face was in horror of what I had saw. And forever stamping my horror of the Sea Serpents.

Into my teenage years I had only one ambition: to spend my time training my mind and skill in warfare. As I was gonna do all that was in my strength to take revenge on those whom I saw as a threat to the nation which are the Humans and Sea Serpents.

### Adulthood

I finally became an adult when my father walked in my room congratulating me for passing hinder for most children I quickly went into recruitment as a adult of Noble tree I was given a high ranking status in the military. Unlucky for me the war until this point has not gone well they have pushed far into out homeland slaughtering all they can get their hands on of our species crippling our numbers whom known how long until they arrive at the capital and who known what an enemy whom we have fought for years could do.

only a few months in and the ever lasting threat of a siege of "The Golden City" is ever present I spend my time patrolling the streets and recruiting all men or boy around the age of 15 to 18 when I get called to the wall as they call "THE ENEMY HAS ARRIVED!"

### The Siege of the Golden City

I stand at the walls of the Golden City ready for the onslaught that were to become.

The Merlings have long been at war with the Humans but never in the Merlings History have they been so successful during my life that they had pushed us all the way back to "The Golden City", our capital. They slaughtered all that came in their way no matter if child or adult. Luckily most of the Merling species had escaped to the capital 'do. They would not live for much longer.

I see the Sea Serpents nearing the city and behind them the human army breathing underwater with their advanced magic. We ready our weapons to defend our capital and species even do we are of a small number compared to the enemy army do to our heavy defeats. We still stand firm to fight.

Last I remember I was fighting in mid battle of the humans as one stabs me with a spear. I black out and I believe the only reason why I am alive is do to the amount of bodies in the city and that they could not find my bleeding body.

None the less I wake up seeing a crumbling and dead city. To survive I had to stand sharp and heal my wound before it gets infected. Luckily I found healing supplies one of the corpses to help myself . I could not believe my eyes. "My life work, all for nothing"

### Aftermath of the War

I watch upon the collapsing city, Ones of great riches and now plundered and destroyed and humiliated I swore an oath to take revenge upon the humans and Sea Serpents that destroyed my homeland and that our great race shall never fall to such humiliation and that we shall thrive no matter the circumstances.

Because of the war I was separated from my father, Proteus Scyllar, so I spent most of my days camping near my once birth place and home, the "Golden City". As the days past I was watching over the city as it continued to crumble and erode into nothingness

I knew that I could no longer stay here due to my food supply getting lower and the ever present threat of an enemy ambush. I dedicated the rest of my time to find my father as I was separated during the retreat of the city.
