Aelfric the Cheerful

Aelfric was raised in a traditional Thorcinga village and practiced as a shipwright for several years, marrying a local Thorcin woman. One day his wife was slain accidentally by a Archontean patrol. Rather than seek vengeance, he decided to strive for understanding. Abandoning the craft he was trained in he began to wander from village to village, striving to understand the human condition, and began writing and reciting poetry to express what he learned.
