"My story... sadly, has ended. I suppose yours continues as we speak, since you are headed to Velprintar, but my brother was... that's besides the point, actually. Anyway, I lived in a very small village, you would never have heard of it though. Invaders came from eastern lands and burned it, but my brother and I escaped. We... split up and I came to Ingdal's Arm to replenish my supplies after a trek through the Yuirwood, I met Achkby in a tavern there, and we watched the events that took place at the mud bowl. We set off on the path to Corth, and heard your battle with that Tendriculous thing, so we decided to help... that's pretty much it."
