12 Rethe

Kaldar is given evidence of his mother by his Master and Mentor, Sev'Yingul. Kaldar was brought to the Priory of Zion at the age of 3 by a servant girl of the local town at the bottom of Mount Zion. During one of his normal trips to town, Master Sev'Yingul met the servant girl at a tavern. She explained to Master Sev'Yingul that a woman, tall and beautiful with blonde hair, but clearly weakened and distressed was seeking safety and shelter for her son, whom she called Kaldar. The woman gave the child to the servant girl and departed, never to be seen again. Master Sev'Yingul was moved with compassion and told the girl he would care for the child at the Priory if she did not wish to carry this burden. Master Sev'Yingul explained all of this to Kaldar on 12 Rethe, handed him a small wooden box with faded and damaged parchment inside. He told Kaldar that instead of the normal tests and trials outside of the Priory, he would be given the special mission to complete himself mentally and emotionally to fully enter the ranks of the Monks of the Priory. He was given the mission to discover the truth of who he was and who his mother was.
