Backstory:

Zeke was born to a family of miners. His family was poor, but he was a good-natured child and his father always said that he had a bright future ahead of him. His family lived in a small cottage built into the side of a hill.

He spent most of his time playing with his father in the mines, learning the ways of a miner. His mother taught him to be kind and generous to others. When he was old enough to work, he started working in the mines with his father.

He was paid a small amount of money and they saved their money to buy a house. Zeke’s father was killed in a rockslide. Zeke’s mother was devastated. She went to work in the mines with her son to help support the family.

They lived in their old cottage for several years, saving money for a new house. One day, a noble visited their village. The noble was looking for men to join his army. Zeke’s mother was worried that Zeke would be killed in battle, so she refused to let him join the army.

Zeke was very upset. A few days later, Zeke left home and joined the army. His mother was heartbroken, but she knew it was something he had to do. Zeke’s mother died not long after that. Zeke’s father left him his best pickaxe. Zeke still uses it today.
