Background
Karion Da Hadez, eldest son of the modestly wealthy merchant and trader Haron Da Hadez, was born and raised in Darka. He was extensively schooled in the noble arts in his youth and spent the early years of his adulthood amassing his own fortune trading fine weapons and armor and building a network of contacts among the lower echelons of the local nobility.
Eventually he had enough gold and contacts to be able to embark on his true goal and started formal training as a knight.
He travelled widely to be schooled by private tutors. In Darka he learned the arts of swordsmanship and command as well as the duties and responsibilities of a knight. In Talerium he studied history, archery and religion. Finally he travelled to Eston to learn horsemanship and jousting.
Karion had intended to join Darka's army when his training was complete, perhaps joining his cousin Severn in the home guard. However, his education in foreign lands had broadened his outlook and he now felt uneasy about Darka's mercenary nature. Feeling that there was more to nobility than the search for gold and power he started to search for another realm in which to start his career as a knight. Eventually he realised that, given his home's mercenary nature, any realm on Atamarra may become an enemy of Darka and did not relish the thought of having his loyalties divided between any new home and his family home. After careful deliberation he finally decided to emigrate to the East Continent.
During a long, uncomfortable but uneventful voyage Karion spent his time talking to the few fellow passengers and the ship's captain about the East Continent. On the advice of the captain he eventually decided to settle in the republic of Sirion.
Shortly after his arrival Karion swore fealty as a knight of Csopa where he established humble farming estates and was assigned to the Army of Sirion. Within days he had tasted his first real combat with the army as part of a cavalry charge at the head of a Sirion attack which broke Fontan's attempt at a takeover of the region of Dale.
