Hraz'Elarion: Abandoned
I have been HS Wift for the longest time now, through some of the darkest hours I have known, and it warms my heart to know that the light that led me through lives on still.
May it never die.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
A human would not have heard the pounding through the heavy rain, but to the keen ears of an elf, the sharp noises were easily distinguishable. Upon answering the door, Selura found not the source of the knocking, but a hastily wrapped bundle of blankets.
Not so uncommon a sight at an orphanage, Selura wasted no time in sweeping up the abandoned child and taking it to the Headmother for examination. By the stairs, she encountered Moira Anvilarm, the other juniour custodian of the house, a dwarf of pleasant demeanour, though possessed of a low tolerance for unruliness.
"'Nother dropper?"
"So it would seem."
Not needing an invitation, Moira joined Selura as she climbed the stairs, and together, they knocked upon the door to the Headmother's bedroom.
"Headmother," Selura called, "There's someone here who'd like to meet you."
The door opened, and the kindly Headmother joined the pair. Together, they peeled back the blankets, to reveal a baby boy with white hair and grey skin.

HS Wift
This is the first part of a character backstory I'm writing for a game of dungeons and dragons I will be playing. I will be writing the story with the Forgotten Realms setting in mind, which was created by Wizards of the Coast. I did not create the world or races that appear and will appear in these stories.
