Background: Toran grew up in the town of Acroton, on the Sacred Coasts along the White Sea. Acroton belongs to the Kingdom of the South, of the Country of Mortag, under King Sersomus who rules in the capital of Birip. Toran, whose father was a simple fisherman, wanted to become a Guardian, one of the elite soldiers of Acroton. His father, though wary to the idea, allowed him to continue his training, and after ten years of study he became a Guardian. That same day two monks came to his house and asked for his assistance. He complied and they all went to Birip to see the King. The Mondavi under the Prince of the Mountains were rising in strife, and someone needed to be sent to keep the King informed of what was happening in the North. Toran was chosen. Along the way (about which is not told here), Toran fulfilled the prophecy of the Zenith, and restored order to the world, dispelling the Night. Do not misunderstand though; Toran is not a man-god nor demi-god, but simply the avatar of the Zenith on Echt. He has no greater power than all the men of the earth, and can die in the midst of strife. He is kind, yet headstrong. He has suffered as no man should in the depths of Mond Nest, after losing his companions and having gone through the torment of the Magnus Marshes (a most horrid place). And though the earth is once again restored to its former glory before the Trickery of the Night so long ago, Toran does not live without sorrow and mourning, for the many lives that were lost in a fight that should not have been. But one cannot find onself through non-violence without first experiencing violence. And Toran has found this to be true.
