Story: Kynlis, being born the only child to a family in a small village on the border of Etruria and Sacae, was her parents' little princess. But while they called her that, she wasn't spoiled. Being their only child, she was taught the things father's teach their boys as well as the feminine side of things. Seeing as her father was a hunter for the village, she grew up learning how to shoot a bow as well as cook and do laundry. As she got older, Kynlis began hunting with her father more and more, even on the long hauls.
It was around these times that the conflict between Etruria and Sacae began to flare up. Because of the danger of being to close to Sacae, the girl's father had her stay at home on the longer hunting trips. One day, several days after her father headed out, while Kynlis was out practicing with her bow, she heard a noise in the underbrush. Nocking another arrow, she prepared to draw it as she crept closer to where the sound came from. As she got closer, she heard wheezing, but not much else. After no other sound was made for what seemed like hours but was really a minute, she quickly reached out and pulled the obscuring branches away, only to reveal her wounded father! She cried out to her mother in the house, and together, they managed to carry him inside.
After some treatment from the local healer, the girl's father asked her to fetch the mayor. Once the man was present, he related the story of how, while hunting, he had stumbled across a bandit hunting party, and had been attacked almost immediately. He managed to escape but was wounded, and feared that the rest of the bandits would be able to follow his trail back to the village.
The small village, not being defensible or having many fighters, decided to err on the side of caution, and began to prepare to evacuate to the next town over, which was a little over double there size and, more importantly, had walls. Unfortunately, as the villagers were about to set out, the were attacked by a large band of bandits. Everything after that is a blur, seeing as she was nicked by an arrow and hit her head. She woke up 3 days later with the remaining refugees at the town, and was told that their village was burned to the ground and everyone else not there killed, including her parents. When asked why, they told her that bandits do things like this for no reason, they were the scum of the earth. Incensed by the aimless act of cruelty and depravity perpetrated against her innocent village, Kynlis searched for a way to get her revenge. It was then that a priest of St. Elimine currently in the town met her. She was entranced by his words, of the stories of the benelovevent St. Elimine, and decided that if the bandits or her fellow villagers had believed, they might have been spared their fate. With that notion in her head, she decided to join the Etrurian army, to help cleanse the land of villianous filth that opposed St. Elimine.
