The Journey

On a starry night, deep within the forests of the Shroud. A newborn baby cries out for his mother. Though she will never answer she will always be watching over him. Left upon the steps of the orphange in Gridania he awaits a new life. The beginning of a Journey.Though he would not know it for a long time, Pathy was born as a half breed between the two tribes of Miqo'te. His mother passing on her Keeker traits to him, and his father passing on his Seeper traits as well.Over the course of his life, Pathy would be adopted and given back to different orphanages in Gridania. The family's claiming that after bringing him into their homes they experienced terrible amounts of misfortune. Many claiming that the young Miqo'te was cursed by the gods.Though eventually he would be adopted into a family in Ishgard. The rich noble family mostly curious on the rumors of the 'cursed cat'. After bringing him into their family they quickly began to realize that the rumors were true. Before any ruin could befall the family they hired an Diviner from the Atheneum Arcaneum to attempt to find whatever curse had befallen the young Miqo'te.The Diviner claimed that Pathy had a curse placed deep within his soul since his birth. Making it so that those around him would begin to suffer from slowly increasing misfortunes. While it could potentially be broken it would take a long time and many years of research. Offering to take care of Pathy until the Diviner would be able to break the curse. Until that time comes, he would study the way of Astrology and the Arcanum.Over many years Pathy would develop into a young man. Apprenticing under the Diviner who took him in. Learning all that he could with the Arcanum, blessings, curses, and how to draw magic from the stars themselves. Traveling near and far across the world, using his learned practices to develop relations with all that he could. As he developed these bonds his mentor could feel the curse on his soul slowly releasing, but it was always still ever present.Eventually, Pathy left his mentor's side once he became an adult. Feeling as if he needed to learn about himself he removed himself from the Atheneum Arcaneum. Practicing the arts of Astrology on his own, and for others that might request it of him.
