I only know that I have been sleeping by the roadsides that's all I could remember. I beg around for money to feed until Steven Cyril found me one day and he brought me to his home and I was just 12 then. he completed all the formalities and adopted me into his family. He gave me a home and a name, a debt I could never repay even if I had offered my life. He called me Ryn because he said he could clearly see that some day I would be a great rule
