Torne's Story (2)

Torne wasn't always a ghost. Born 4,000 years ago, he had grown up in a town in the Gugia Empire, a state further west on the continent, far from the Seidel Kingdom.

He was an orphan who hadn't known his parents and had been raised in an orphanage in his hometown. When he turned 14, he had gone through the Awakening Ceremony in one of the Congregation of Revelation's temples.

At that time, he had no idea he had been born with an affinity for the Dark Path. By going through the Awakening in one of the temples of a Light Path religion, he had naturally been marked and suffered at the beginning of his journey.

But before meeting the Cataclysm Order, he had managed to escape those who wanted to kill him or persecute him for his magical affinity.
