Yeah. He was part of this secret order in another kingdom. It's complicated and he never really talks about it. And he's the leader of our village? So he's an important farmer. But I think he just wanted a quiet life after the Brotherhood disbanded.
[And instead he got to be a single dad to Varian and never got a quiet anything. Except for when he was stuck in the amber of a year. He had a quiet time then. ]
Yeah no. He kept it from me. I only found out after we got him out of the amber. And at that point, everyone knew so it was kind of moot. Guess they just have secrets they want to protect us from. It's pretty stupid though. Makes more of a mess than anything else.
[If his dad had just explained the black rocks to him, then things probably wouldn't have gone the way they did. Or, he'd like to think they wouldn't. And yet he can't find it in him to be angry at his dad. He guesses that desperate need to please the man will always override everything else. Even now. ]
