Once he was given the tasks that accompanied one of that stature, his mother began offering him the chance to learn with the others each night.

Beaten for disobedience or by drunken rage
Life, Trauma/ LossAs the years passed and Ea gave more and more time to his practice and playing, he slowly grew more distant from most of his family. This included his father, with whom he managed to grow so distant that the man barely seemed more than a stranger. During the days he would disapear and his father had taken to the drink, he would be violently beaten and berrated for his lack of assistance around the farm.
