Understanding

The moon had just reached the highest point in the night sky when murderous screams echo through Ofcol from within a barn house. Noath just a child at the time went to investigate the situation. As he approached he noticed a man standing atop a woman with a bloody knife in his hand. Noath knew he had to do something quickly so he grabbed the first thing he could and threw it at the man. When the City Guards came, they witnessed Noath hitting the man and the man falling to his death atop the blade. Noath was arrested for murder and without trial sentenced to death. Noath knew in his heart he had done nothing wrong. He was ready to embrace his death at such a young age. His father whom he had not seen in many years decided to show up just before Noath was hanged. Seeing his father, Noath no longer wanted to be killed and screamed for help and understanding. His father spoke to the leader of the Guard and worked out a deal. Noath would disappear into the world never to return again to Ofcol. His father took him to the Monastary in the Holy Grove, where Noath would start his life again. Noath knew in his heart that he wanted to walk a path of balance and justice, to ensure innocent people were not murdered. While his heart is pure and his intentions are good, he has always remembered that without balance there will be chaos.
