When he came of age, he applied for a position with his town's local guard, looking to work his way up via merit and eventually become a Expert in service of a powerful lord somewhere. His parents died when he was young, and he was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Abad grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food.
