Undefiable Fate

Description

Struggle to Break Free.

My youngest uncle Dekiman was quite the odd person, and despised for such reasons within the family. My father and grandfather would sigh deeply each time they saw him.

He was the only trouble-making uncle of the house, yet he was particularly fond of me.

I would take his hand as he led me to random places in Calpheon, as he shared exotic and interesting tales of his beloved travels, which greatly expanded my horizons regarding the outside world.

Above all, he taught me alchemy in secret, unknown to the rest of my family. Even the most useless-looking materials would be redeemed as precious ingredients for alchemy when they ended up in my uncle's hands, which always left me in awe.

And one day, he disappeared without a word of warning and reappeared in the same way, but with worn clothes, sunken face...and eyes that sparkled like none other.
