Biography

Sent to Tiegang for his safety after spilling kumis over the skirts of Ghawetkiin Enkhjargal at a public feast. Beginning his education there in 1703 AN.

His weakness for alcohol, which an education with the School of the High Inquisitor did nothing to dispel, quite the opposite, saw him wake up, a week after his graduation, in a holding cell within the cantonments of the Blackfriars' Regimental Impressment Garrison. After realising that they had captured a Hurmudan lordling of the tribal sort, the recruiting officers of the Impressment Service prevailed upon him to purchase a commission as an ensign within the Regiment of the Blackfriars' so as to secure his release from the situation of close confinement in which he found himself.
