Exit Fate: Meiko's Interviews

Stromgaard

Meiko: Today I'm speaking to Stromgaard, an adventurer. Adventurer, that's a vague description, isn't it? I understand you travel a lot, but what is it that you really do?

Stromgaard: It's a good question. Mostly, I just wander around until I've found an interesting place I haven't seen before yet, and stay there for a while, like I'm doing now. Sometimes, when I get a good lead, I like chasing after lost treasures, but usually I don't really have a particular goal in mind.

Meiko: How did this get started? What made you decide to go out and see the world?

Stromgaard: Well, I guess it's in my blood. I come from the Hazan tribe. They're nomads who used to live on the northern Almengan plains. From an early age I learned how to take care of myself and survive in the wild.

Meiko: The Hazan? Oh, I've heard of them. Weren't they nearly wiped out during a war with Almenga, about a decade ago?

Stromgaard: It was eight years ago, but yeah. The imperial army destroyed most of our settlements, and many of us died. I don't think many of our people still live a nomadic life nowadays. Most of them now live as second-class citizens in Almengan cities. It's one reason I decided to spend my life traveling. I was already abroad at the time the war broke out, but after that, I had no reason to go back anymore.
