When I was at least a day old, my mother and father were called by the Long Patrol. Yes, the Long Patrol, the hares that live in Salamandastron and serve the current Badger Lord or Badger Lady. I'm not proud of it... Why? Because. Because of them being in the top ranks of the Long Patrol, they were summoned for the most dangerous missions...
Mom said goodbye and gave me her most precious possession, her mother's ribbon. I've heard all about my grandmother from mom, and it seems mom didn't really get to know her mother because her mother died when she was only a season old.
Dad said goodbye and told his 'Never Give Up' speech once more. Then, they left. A few days later, dad came back, but mom wasn't there. I asked why she was missing and dad gave me something I never got from him before: a hug.
It turns out that mom was killed in trying to save a little haremaid, just about my age. Dad gave the vermin who killed her back what the vermin deserved but that wasn't enough to stop the sadness that came to me.
A couple seasons later, dad was killed in a war against a wildcat. I was heartbroken. I had no one else. So, I joined DAB, to try to make new friends, like my mom would've wanted me to.
I don't tell too often that I'm an orphan, but I do tell that I believe. I believe that one day, I'll be able to see my parents again and stay with them, forever. So, for now, I'll just be me, the clumsy, the shy, the light brown haremaid with the bad-aim, me.
