First things first

=== My Parents & Childhood ===
 
I was born in [insert city A name]. A small desert city only known for spice culture and coffee.
 
My mother, Fina Tabr, was born, grew up, lived her whole life and had never left Al'Sahra. But I know nobody else that possess such deep knowledge about the desert. She crossed the desert from side to side and back again and probably know about all the tales and legend ever told or written across those dunes. Or at least she was creative enough to come up with a new bedtime stories night after night. I never thought about it before, but now I wish I could ask her. I hope it's not too late.
 
My father, Glyn Tabr, was traveling with a foreign trader guild when his feet touched a dune's sand for the first time. After journeyed back and forth to Al'Sahra for quite some time he developed a strong curiosity about the history and myth of those arid and sunlit landscape. The day he met my mother must have been his luckiest day. Picture a parched throat wandering in the desert crossing the path of an abundant water source. I can tell you that I wasn't the only one listening to my mother's night stories. And I certainly wasn't always the most attentive.
 
I don't know for how long they wander together. All I can tell you is that they finally settled in [insert city A name] and after a few months I was there. Fina and Glyn took over the Fina's parent spice and coffee outlet (My grandparents passed away shortly after my first breath). After a few years this outlet became a well known spice and coffee store even by merchant from outside the desert. This doesn't mean they are wealthy, but enough not to be in need and are generally well considered by city folks.
 
There is nothing noteworthy during my childhood. Except for my mother's tales and, perhaps, of a more pronounced appetite for travel and adventure than the other children in the village. This faint inner whistling finally became a real cry for adventure, a call to leave, to abandon the village with the aim of forging a reputation. During my 14th years I finally gathered enough courage and goods for my journey. I found the perfect moment to leave everything behind and flees my village, friends and parents.
