[Shadowstrider42]

A young sarradian raises herself as the new generation after the great war, A young sarradian raised in one of many orphanages of unknown renown Growing up with other of the small children this woman will soon learn the cruelty of the world as they scavenged corpses and looted unconscious travelers in order to survive despite the attempts of the staff trying to steer them in a proper direction.[/i]

This lass Decided to try her best not to be like the others at first. 

So she took to dancing trying to block out the world through it so that she would not have to bear the crimes of her fellow urchin's, Raising their ire just by the mere fact that she was not contributing to their survival, They tormented the poor lass cutting her hair publicly humilating her, Burning her spare clothes. Anything they could to to make her life a living hel they tried it. 

Two village guards would come upon this one day seeing the young lass in distress they asked what was wrong, After several minutes of telling them what was wrong the guards would just offer a solemn smile before taking a deep sigh, 

Deciding to teach her ways to help her defend herself the on the condition that she would only use it in self defence, So After she had agreed to the guards demands. the guards would begin her training taking her to the local milita grounds, Teaching  her the basics of holding a sword As well as basic fire magic Since she had the potential for magic should she ever need it, although the blade was heavy in her hands she tried her best to practice the movements And spells that they had demonstrated. Thrusting slashing blocking and pivoting Controlling the flames. Even after she had put the other urchin's in their place for the torment they gave her. She would still seek to train with the guards in hopes of becoming one herself one day. Years she practiced their demonstrations they had taught her, But she had figured she would incorperate her dancing into those demonstrations, Which proved to aid in her movements in her sparring matches. As well as help push the flames away from her with her graceful touch to warfare.  and So her bond with the guards grew And grew having them become the parents that she failed to grow up with, Till one day, They were told to patrol outside the village's gate and were promptly killed in a ambush by bandits shortly after. 

The young woman would have lost the closest thing to family that she had ever recieved, Her sense of morality slowly died and she swore to herself that the world could be damned, Survival justive honor what good were those to her now?. for her to simply die at the hand of some nameless fool?. No she would think that She would just simply enjoy life till she died. 
So after many years now the young girl finally had reached the age where she would no longer be supported by the orphange and she would seek out to either make a name for herself or end up at least making enough coin till she could live comfortably, Using the skills she had learned in her short life she would hope she could put them to use, Be it a battlefield or being simple muscle.

This is where Zumurrud La'hebas story would begin truly.
