Journey from Eldham
0The Confederation of Konatto from which Maguro originates was thrust into civil war when Maguros father, Chieftain Calanon attempted to centralize the confederation into a more modern state. Calanon dreamed of a federation that could protect all citizens of Konatto from external invaders. When these reforms were announced the council of Konatto was instantly split between supporters of this new federation, and those that wished for the status quo to remain intact. Due to civil war in Konatto Maguro grew close to his mother Emilia as his father was always planning the war or leading their armies to victory. The war dragged on for quite some time as both sides appeared evenly matched, unfortunately for the confederation an outside power would soon intervene. A coalition of Goblin tribes and an orc confederation formed to take down Konatto. In the years just before the civil war taking down the coalition would have pushed Konatto to the brink to win the war, even if Konatto suddenly reunited to fight the coalition they would have still been completely obliterated. its estimated that the war only lasted 6 months to a year, and most of that time was due to traveling from city to city. When the Orc's reached the capital of Konatto - Stugg, The Orcs produced a list of demands


 * 1) All heirs to Konatto's thrown be delivered to the Orcs immediately
 * 2) The Chieftain and Chieftainess renounce their claims to the confederation
 * 3) The Chieftain and Chieftainess swear fealty to the Orcs
 * 4) The Chieftain and Chieftainess Abdicate and give the thrown to someone in their family of the Orcs choosing
 * 5) The Confederation of Konatto is annexed by the Orc's federation

upon hearing the demands Chieftan Calanon attempted to stall for as long as possible as he loaded everything he could onto the Konatton war fleet. The capital of the Confederation was situated on the ocean and as such, the fleet of the whole confederation was kept there. It has seen very minimal use during the civil war and as such was completely intact. The only problem with the fleet was the fact that it was very outdated, in fact Calanon was not even sure they would be able to make it far from Konatto in the boats, but there was one truly sea worth ship, the U.K.C Barret. It was the flagship of the whole fleet and as such, was built to withstand the harsh reality of the seas. Calanon ordered his royal guard and his family onto the U.K.C Barret. He also had his Royal Guard load the ship with Konattos most valuable treasures, and all the food left in reserve - 6 months worth. The stories in Konattos religion, Astroism, spoke of another land mass, a land of milk and honey where his family could be safe. While Barret was never a devout follower of Astroism, He had always believed of this fabled land. Once the boats where full and his family was aboard, instead of joining them Calanon sent them off. Maguro, his mother and his two sisters yelled for Calanon. The royal guard had to hold Maguro down as they feared that he would jump off the ship to try and help his father. Calanon knew that if he wasnt there to distract the Orcs with a battle they wouldn't forget, then his family would never be able to escape unnoticed.

The U.K.C Barret continued onwards, but soon the ships accompanying it had to risk capture and return to shore to avoid drowning. One month turned to two, two turned to 4, and 4 turned to 6. even with the strict rationing that had been going on since the begging their food could not last for more than 2 months more. The Royal guard considered turning the ship around, but they realized that they were better off taking there chances with this so called land of milk and honey. nearly three months later, the only "food" that remained on board where the occasional rat or two that had not starved yet. Suddenly off in the distance, they spotting a few small corvette like ships, approaching rapidly. The Royal guards readied their weapons and gathered what little strength that they had remaining. Suddenly, harpoons where fired from ballista like structures on the Corvettes. It turned out that there were four of these small crafts. The Royal guards tried to detach the harpoons to no avail. Soon Orc like creatures started to climb the chain that the harpoons fired.
