This story starts on a brisk Autumn evening in the small and often overlooked suburb to the busy metropolis Castania to the East near the sea.
The area is an attractive living area, though quiet and rural. Smaller houses with large yards are distributed seemingly at random as far as the eye can see. Some larger, some smaller, though all seem homely and sweet.
To the west lies the mountain range, a richly forested area that offers the most beautiful nature your eyes will ever fall upon. Wild and deep forest lakes fill the center of what was once a volcano not too far from your house, but still far enough that it is abandoned most of the year.
We start the story now, by looking down at the house you live in. A slightly large and well-kept building with a wide back yard and high ceilings in two floors. It was left to you by your parents when they decided on a spur to move abroad and leave you to your own devices. But you learn to survive on the savings they left you, the already paid off house, and your close friend, who now shares a cool evening with you on the couch...
You have a strong build, and a tall stature - whereas your best friend is entirely the opposite. You've often been bashed around by the jocks at the college you both go to, for wanting to befriend someone so small in stature. And jokes about 'predator and prey' often arose when your back was turned. But you didn't care, you had found a true friend and you knew that differences between you was only a strength.
