To be fair with you I don't remember much of my past, though I do remember storing a book in some old ruins. I just remember a stranger telling me wandering the world isn't safe, he took me by the hand and led me to Carvay, the doge welcomed me after talking with the stranger. I worked around the city, doing what was asked. I wasn't really setting heart on settling i had to find someone, I didn't really know who back then. I was taken to the port where i met essendor, i quickly got to work there doing farm chores. I felt more at home there, unlike the doge essendor could see  the challenging look i gave ass i would look out into the distance. He told me to prove my loyalty, Prove to them i wouldn't just run off as soon as i got enough resources. Essendor and the doge sent me off to fight the golden wolf. I thought it was like asking a kid to find a five leaf clover to get them outta your hair or to get rid of them, But i did what i was asked no matter the anxiety i had. I traveled far to where i knew big packs lived. I was upset  about having to kill the wolves but in the end it was me or them. I quickly got  a good grip on using a bow, defending myself as i approached this large mountain. I climbed it and got ready for a fight but so was he, He didn't stand like any normal wolf. He was beautiful and terrifying. I was bitten by him during the fight, I couldn't fight on as I passed  out there. I don't know how much time passed when I finally woke up, all I knew was I had to return to carvay empty  handed. My head pounded when i stood. I touched my head to find ears.I knew what had happened and who he was, a rare breed they call them and i had become one of them. My head hung low  as i traveled back, my hood on and i hid my new tail under my flannel. When i got back i told them i didn't have the head. They weren't mad when i returned saying i had been gone for days. I was sewing my flannel in my home in carvay when the doge walked in, he saw  my  tail and ears. I tried to cover them quickly. He  just gave a soft sigh, we talked and he told me to show it  with pride. I returned to the port and everything returned to normal. I stayed at the port and acted like a farm dog of sorts. I had this heart of the sea pendant that i  had ever since i could remember i could feel the pull to explore to find wherever it led. Sometimes it would give up a faint glow when I would travel to drop off supplies to those who needed them. I lost my desire to follow it, I liked to stay in one spot for once. After picking up a pink haired boy from a island to the west who had sent out a distress flare that i saw when dropping off some food to a nation, we docked at the port and essendor was rushing grabbing his armor and getting his boat ready to sail north. I found this strange, when he saw me he quickly explained that some nations were ready to fight so he had to go watch. He told me the doge had already left to observe, I could see the worry in his eyes as he  said it  would be ok and handed me a radio to alert me if something went wrong. He sailed off and an instinct kicked in, I grabbed armor and weapons for me and the pink haired boy named ian. I grabbed the bow I had been fixing up and was used to hunt animals, I could feel the calling to help if there was a need. We sat waiting, when there was the calling. Essendor said something went wrong, I looked at Ian with a new found need to protect. We set off to Bardionia, we fought in that war. My arrows helped keep the lands safe, i had lost track of my kills as i just knew i needed to protect those at my side. I made sure no one fought alone, I ran around keeping my allies safe. When the higher ups called for us to head to the peace talks, I followed and watched. Everyone had drinks while I stayed sober just in case there needed to be a fight again. They settled everything between them we returned to carvay. I sat in the back as the doge awarded Essendor, then he looked over to me and called me. I stood before him and bowed, he awarded me for most kills. He gave me a new armor set, i looked at everyone who fought in carvay as they awarded me. I was in shock and accepted my blessing. Everything seemed to go back to normal, we got new people and some just never returned. I wasn't too close with anyone in carvay, some came and left. I would just vibe in the farm most days with tundra. I would be praised by Essendor  for my acts during the war, he even made me his right hand. Things just relaxed. Till one day I was sailing from NeosKnossos my pendant began to glow, I followed it as it glowed more and more. My instinct kicked in, I sailed as fast I could. I passed many nations when I came  across a small island. I docked and looked around till I found someone who felt like I knew them for years. He looked at me shocked. He came before me and I got a quick look at the past, I remembered everything for that moment and hugged him. It was my younger brother, I had been looking for him for years. We sailed back and i told him everything that has happened, that missing piece i had been feeling has finally returned into place. I didnt show him off really in fear he wouldn't be accepted, he would be like a phantom in the town doing what he needed without being seen. Things went well, I began raising a wolf pack, everything was going well in the world. When tsnow returned to us i was so excited, he was the one i truly bonded with in the beginning. I sailed him to sironia when they were having a meeting, when we docked we were greeted and asked who we were. I introduced myself With my title “Frostina Torries The Golden Executioner Of Carvay” after introductions we were asked to help with the incoming attack by some bandits.of course we agreed and got sorted into a team. I was a dog expert, I mean that was my title in the army. I got to know the other team's dog expert, Jae, we had met a few times in the past. Me and tundra were late to the attack, but it was no issue. We had a few problems getting people to open the gate for us but it went well in the end. Tundra had his rocket launcher and I had my weapons. It was easy to protect the city, tundra fell asleep at our post. The only true dangers were the phantoms at night. Terrifying things really. After the fight we all returned home and slept off the tiredness of the war. Being a praised warrior in carvay wasnt as i thought it would be, we were sent around to protect nations from any threat no matter how dumb the reasoning was. It got very tiring, especially when me and my team were disrespected. I remember the mission before I was knighted as the Captain of the Gulf. Me, my team, the gov of Neos Knossos, and the doges husband Bakrey went to a nation where we were left in the dark about what was truly going on. We were so upset at this, we patrolled around and found zero threat. This was around the time the doge began to come out of his area less and less, I began to worry about him. After that night, I was made the Captain of the Gulf, I held so much power but always felt so empty. Tundra and I would joke about a true family, something neither of us truly had. When we were joking about it, Essendor and the doge overheard. That's when one night the doge officially adopted me into the mezaria family. It was nice to have a feeling of family with the doge and his husband. I got very close with them and my brother appeared more often and even made himself known to our new dads. I wanted to make them proud, when Bakrey opened a guild I joined it wanting to give a hand and make a bit of cash. Adventuring alongside him was always a great time. I remember the time we went to the Huitca rebellion, we went together and watched as everything went down. After it all happened we went mapping. I also remember the time that Hub had Bakreys bow i gave him for christmas, i knew what i had to do and i don't think i would ever do it again. I acted soft voiced, doing your typical small girl voice. He rolled a dice, he gave me the bow. He asked me to go somewhere and I just walked off to return the bow. I was greeted with a “That's my girl” and praise from my papa. I was happy, this had to be what family was like. Nothing seemed like it could go wrong, we planned out dates for meetings and elections. That's when everything went wrong, The night of the meeting the doge, My father, died before everyone's eyes. He came to me as a spirit and told me to drink and I did, he formed as a deity of the land before all of us. In our bond I had gained the power to bring his spirit to life. Everything changed, i was scared i would lose everything i had. That's when a bandit came in attacked, taking another  life from Bakrey. I remember everyone saying  i had been orphaned, I remember the panic and fear. I ran to his house seeing he was still alive. I could only remember thinking “i'm not alone yet, not yet”. I'm a proud Mezaria, a proud carvaian. I am  LaGailia Frostina Torries Mezaria, Golden Captain Of The Gulf. I wear my name proudly. I still see that stranger from time to time, I saw him at the battle of the phantom menace. I just started calling him the phantom of carvay. Why he took me to carvay, I will never know. Where the book I left in the ruins is nowadays, I have no clue.
