Galen Faldhorn

Player: Joe Wildey

Background: Galen awoke and for a moment forgot where he was. That's a very dangerous way to awake when you're in hostile territory. Orald would be very upset to see his star pupil make a novice mistake like that. Fifteen years Galen had been training for this point in his life. Granted, when Orald had agreed to take him as a pupil Galen didn't know where his training would take him. Hours and hours were spent poring over ancient tombs of science and math from the day he turned 11; of course Galen would have rather spent the time playing with swords and make-believe guns. While the other boys his age were out pretending to impale imaginary vampires Galen was pretending that plants and fungus were interesting.

A raid two weeks ago had left their little town with many people dead or missing and Orald was one of the missing. Galen had heard of the slave raids on other towns, but none had ever been near their home. Galen followed them for a number of days before they boarded a giant airship and loaded the slaves into the cargo area. Galen didn't see Orald, but he wasn't giving up hope yet. He would follow that ship all the way to Atlantis if necessary.
