Story
NILS FROST-GATHERER
Wo das Licht nicht reicht stand NILS FROST-GATHERER, Master Forager and Teacher, ein Kind von Frostborn, getragen von Schicksal und Geheimnis.
NILS war nicht wie die anderen. Nicht besser, nicht schlechter - nur anders. Eine Melodie in einer anderen Tonart. Ein Farbton, den nur wenige sehen konnten.
Das Leben hatte NILS geformt, wie es alle formt - durch Freude und Schmerz, durch Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, durch die tausend kleinen Momente, die ein Leben ausmachen.
Aber da war etwas in NILS. Etwas, das sich weigerte, sich fügen zu wollen. Eine Stimme, die flüsterte, wenn alle anderen schwiegen. Ein Licht, das brannte, wenn die Welt dunkel wurde.
ein Geheimnis, das niemand kennt. Das war die Last, die NILS trug. Nicht schwer genug, um zu brechen. Aber schwer genug, um zu spüren. Immer da. Immer gegenwärtig.
Die anderen in Frostborn sahen es manchmal. In den Augen, die zu weit blickten. In den Händen, die zitterten. In der Stille zwischen den Worten.
Aber sie fragten nicht. Denn so war die Art ihrer Welt. Jeder trug seine Last. Jeder seine Geheimnisse. Jeder seine ungeschriebene Geschichte.
Und NILS? NILS ging weiter. Tag für Tag. Durch die Labyrinthe von Frostborn, durch die verschlungenen Pfade von Macht und Pflicht und Überleben.
Wartend. Hoffend. Träumend von dem Tag, an dem das Geheimnis gelüftet würde - oder für immer begraben bleiben würde.

Backstory
Nils spent his first thirty years as an apprentice and journeyman forager, learning the White Vale from elders who had memorized it over lifetimes. At thirty-two he discovered a hidden valley where five medicinal plants grew together—each known separately, but combined, they treated cold-fever better than any remedy the clan possessed. The discovery made his reputation. He has spent the twenty years since teaching what he knows, convinced that the most valuable act a person can perform is ensuring their knowledge does not perish with them.

Nils spends his days foraging in the White Vale, teaching apprentices, and preserving his finds. He returns to Frosthold only to trade and share knowledge.
