My name is Aric Resur Valin, son of King and Queen of the Narro people. I was born the first and only child of my parents and I suppose you could say that I was immediately lavished in riches and love. And I suppose you would be right. My parents kept a hard watch on me constantly, my mother more so. I would often venture into the woods with my father though to go riding or practice fighting with wooden swords. He was always kind of like a big kid whenever he wasn't doing his job or making important appearances. He liked to have fun.

Growing up I was taught the finest etiquette and given the most interesting and best teacher around for all subjects known. It was all part of the being a well rounded ruler thing, I guess. I learned to fight and hunt, though my mother often forbade me to take place in any. Not only did violence upset her but so did the idea of me getting injured. I was never that worried at first but that all changed.

While headed toward the human's kingdom to discuss the forest that was being burned down, my father was slain. I was told that his body had hit the ground lifeless before he had even entered the gates. And I despise the humans for this. My mother grieved for years, only pulling herself together for the sake of myself and our people. But I could see through it and I knew that if she went on the way she did I would be closer to taking her place alone. I didn't want to do that yet. So I did my best to take care of her and still am.
