Birth and birthplace
Angel Glendark-Reach (birth name: Angelus Corith) was born in the city of Palovina, Second Kingdom of Paloro located in Central Haven (Southwest Rathnir). Left on their doorway by his biological parents, he was raised by a family of blacksmiths.

Time in Palovina
Angel, at this time, didn't knew his biological parents. In fact, his adoptive family, the Corith family, never told him anything about his origin. They were poor people, part of the working class, but they had good, pure hearts. His adoptive father, Arden Corith, may've been just a blacksmith, but he managed to teach Angel the most important qualities. Qualities of a leader - passion, integrity, patience and compassion. As a member of a working-class family, he had to start working at an early age. Activities such as farming, blacksmithing, fishing and mining were part of his daily routine. He had to help his family support themselves. Times were tough when Angel was seven, he lost his half-sister Raelly to the plague, and his half-brother Braeden was killed three years later. Braeden was always there for Angel when he needed him. Like a real brother, even though he was half his brother. After his death, the whole family was devestated. Angel's stepfather, Arden, decided to send him to a good school and teach him how to fight.

Time in Sanctuary
Angel was clearly more intelligent than the other children in town, and his father said he deserved the opportunity to reach his potential. On his eleventh birthday, Arden sent him to school in Sanctuary, Uldarash. Every autumn and winter Angel spent in Uldarash, but returned in the spring to help with the harvest.

At a time when he was not studying and in the Sanctuary, Angel worked as an apprentice blacksmith. He knew the craft from his father. The blacksmith he worked for was a former general, and during their breakes he talked about the past wars. It was he who showed him a few tricks and the basics of swordsmanship. Angel had been interested in fighting since he was a little kid and had always wanted to be a soldier.

After five years of studying at Uldarash, Angel learned a lot and managed to save some money to move to the Empire permanently.

Time in Kaahiru
With the money saved, Angel moved to Kaahiru. There he enlisted in the Imperial Army. At first it was difficult for him to live completely alone in the city, but then he got used to it. He invested all his free time in the craft of swordsmanship. He soon became the best in his regiment. After only a year and a half, he left Kaahiru and returned to the Sanctuary.
