Louis Colfer
Louis Colfer is well-known merchant from the town Ethinic.

Village of Muller:
Louis lived in a small, peaceful and lonely village, far far away from civilization. The village named Muller was located in the sparsely populated and least developed area in the nation of Boxo. The village was devoid security and visits from others.

Louis lived a pretty normal life, he wasn’t quite wealthy but he and his parents had enough money to fill their stomachs everyday. In fact, the income per capita averages around $300-$500 every year! Farming was the main economic activity carried out in the village. Some nobles of the town were wealthy which according to a few sources, was probably the main reason for the raid on his peaceful town

Raid on Muller:
It was a typical day of farming for Louis and his mother and father until, from the corner of his eye, he saw five horsemen, carrying swords and bows, emerge from the thick bushes, bordering a forest, west of the village. Immediate panic enveloped Lious’s mind but before he could even let out a scream, one of them blew a trumpet and they galloped towards Muller. Screams of women and children could be heard, “Give us your money!”(Ref. from Lious’s diary), one of the pillagers shouted as they plundered the village. A few nickels didn’t make them happy so one of them made their way to the centre and threatened to burn the village if they didn’t hand over their valuables.

Lious’s father had enough, he grabbed his wooden shaft with the intention of stopping the pillagers. Lious had tried his best to stop him but was unsuccessful, unfortunately his father was killed and the pillagers set the village on fire. Soon, everything was engulfed by the fire, the fire even made its way to the field where Lious was. He eventually found himself surrounded by the flames.

He had no choice but to seek safety in the forest, which he did. He ran in the forest not knowing what’s behind him. One raider had noticed Lious running away so he ran after him, expecting some loot. Lious had a glimpse behind him and saw a man chasing him down. Lious gave all his effort to outrun the pillager but was slipped by a stone. Expecting to be attacked, he turned around and raised his hands to block the hit, however, sunlight that was reflected from the pillager’s iron armor blinded him. The pillager attacked him with such a great force that he had passed out.
