Biographie:
Life had a funny sort of way of working itself out.

The family Laurent was born into were ones who maintained the traditional role of the Watchman; those tasked with watching the edge of the forest and manning the tower-bell. Though, nothing of interest ever quite comes out of the forest beyond a skittish deer, and Coda’a size means that most disputes can be taken care of before a watchman need get involved. So, beyond perhaps the old miller tipping back a bit too much ale again, it is a role that largely exists because custom says it must.

Laurent was the first born to an eventual family of three, and, as traditions are oft to do, the role of watchman was to be passed to him once he came of age. In his formative years he learned the act of swordplay from his father, it was nothing fancy, but oddly efficient for a town which hasn’t required the drawing of a blade for generations.

At the age of ten he began to accompany his father on the rounds he was to one day take, including the day to day maintenance of the bell tower. It wasn’t until his eighteenth year that he took the mantle full from his father, however in the years that followed life followed as it always had.

Coda sleepy and content and the forests beyond still.
