My father was killed when i was 6 years of age. He
was in a duel with an old friend of my mother's, that ended his life. My
father and this man, Thoryn Elvsquin both loved my mother and there was a
deep hatred between the two men because of it. My father would whisper
to Thoryn and taunt him about how he had Mother and Thoryn would lose her
forever.
Finally one morning when mother and i were still sleeping, My father, while
out on his usual early morning hunt, had run into Thoryn in the wilds and
taunted Thoryn his very last time. Thoryn could hold back nomore, They drew
their swords and began dueling. My father drew first blood by striking Thoryn's
face with his Khopesh, which is the scar you see til this day over Thoryn's
right eye and cheek.
Thoryn, leaving him there to die and realizing what he had done, ran
into the mountains and was not seen or heard from for over a year. My father,
using all the strength he had left in him, barely made his way back home
to us.
When Mother opened the door, he was leaning against
the doorway, trying to hold himself up, and finally collapsed in mother's
arms.
His last words to her were...
T.H.O.R.Y.N.....
Mother knew and feared this day would come and it changed her life completely.
Mother has never been the same since. Til this day mother places a black
rose on father's grave every morning and some people say she is found whispering
to someone who isn't there.
I do my best to help mother but sometimes i feel she doesn't even know me
because of the daze she is in. Mother's oldest and dearest friend, Lord Drizzsdt,
has been there for her and has been helping her overcome this tragedy. He
is the only one who can. I pray soon that mother will recover and be her
old self again and with Drizzsdt's help, i have faith that she will be.
I am proud to be the daughter of Lord Joog, He was
a very brave Warrior and i miss him very much. I have forgiven Uncle Thoryn
since then but I will never forget my father laying there in mothers arms
covered in father's blood.
Rest in peace father.
