When I was born, it was obviously ostensible that my mother had a certain disdainful attitude towards me. She and my four brothers always spat derisive remarks at me, tormenting my mind and making me feel ostracized.
I was endowed the youngest of five, so as supposed, my siblings constantly overbore me with roguish ruses and wiles.
In despite of their tyrannous behavior, I brought myself to ask my mother a question.
What was father like?"
At this, she shot me a quick glance and shifted her weight in my direction. After quite a while of staring at her scarred face, I noticed her expression was filled with anguish.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she said,
Leave."
At that moment, I felt like I had just been impaled twice by the tusk of an African elephant. The fulcrum of my mind seemed to collapse under the lever of my mother's words.
Tears started to stream down my face.
Without saying a word, I turned around and ran. As I ran, the stream of tears turned into a torrent.
Miles and miles away from home, I finally collapsed from fatigue right smack in the middle of a mound of thick, dense undergrowth located under a canopy of oddly shaped trees.
It was apparent that I had dragged myself into some sort of forest. This forest... would become my new home.
Being with my mother only enervated me; now, in this forest, I grow stronger everyday, enduring all I come across. In this greenwood forest, there are many other outcasts and exiles as well as me, and hopefully one day, I will meet my perfect match.
Oh, by the way, my name's Reveriend.
