Life Before Eldham
Maximo has no recollection of where he was born and who his biological parents are. The only memory he knows is true from his early life is the day his adoptive father Hassin, a successful merchant, bought him in an auction. At the beginning, Hassin saw him nothing more but an asset for work. He planned to use the young boy like any other cheap worker, however he became fond of him because him and his wife always wanted a child but failed for many years. Many of the of his workers were surprised because he was known to be cold and uncaring. On the way back from the trip Hassin and Maximo would spend a lot of time talking. His new father would explain the importance of knowing how to use the stars to know where you are and how to make sure the men around you stay loyal. Maximo was fascinated with the lifestyle. He had never been outside of the walls of the town he was bought at.

Once they arrived home, Maximo got to meet his new mother Valerie. When Hassin told his wife of the child she was nervous to meet him, but once she saw him a tear rolled down her cheek. Maximo enjoyed his new life. His new family was wealthy so he no longer had to feel hunger. His mother was loving and taught him her passions of economics and the religion of the twin dragons. His father continued to teach him more practical skills when they went on trips to sell goods across the lands. He learned the importance of connections and trust. He realized early that money is important however those you surround yourself with determine your future.

Because of his families wealth he was able to study. He decided to follow his and his mother´s passion of economics. However not all was well. His mother would often worry of his ambition for power. She recognize the means to her child did not mean much as long as the results were achieved. Often they´d argue about how things should be done. She was also worried of the hobbies he had picked up. He grew interested in fighting and the sport of hunting. Hassin would often comfort his wife by telling her its just his age.

While doing his studies he would still go on trips with his father. One of these trips was to explore and sell goods to the new land of Eldham. The trip was long and all was well until the a storm caught the ship unexpectedly. The ship went down with the crew and his father. He was washed up on shore many days later alone.
