A few years ago, in the same kingdom where the action is happening, and where our Main Character is living his adventures life, there is a lady, whose name is Diana Lunderberg, and this fine lady was at the age of fifteen. The age where most women are marrying and making a family. But this lady was not having any luck in finding someone who will love her because her main goals in life (or jobs) are hunting, repairing broken things and also selling her capture they got from hunting to merchants at a reasonable price. But there was someone who shares the same things as her, and that person is noble, whose name is Leonardo Caprinos De Santa, ore Leo for short.
This nobleman has some interesting family roots because his family is originated from a tribe on an unknown island far from the Britking region, a region where pirates, bounty hunters and deserts co-exist. Nobody from this world knows about the names of that tribe he comes him, neither he does because the tribe has disappeared a long time ago due to Cannibals tribes who invaded the tribe and attacked the whole islands who contained that tribe, but thanks to his grandparents, who have taken a boat at the last second and they successfully escaped from their bloody attack of cannibals. They have travelled a long time from there to a dock close to the land where the Turkish empire was three years ago until they were taken by the Bulgaria Kingdom because the ex-emperor wanted to take land from them, but the got brutally beaten by nine dragon riders.
When his grandparents arrived there, they establish a home in the woods. close to the Kingdom of Romania borders, and there, they had a baby, an boy, and that kid will be Leo Father. The family was happy living there, but then, someone has decided to ruin their lives there, and that one, was a Half-Human-Half-Mice person who has to break into their house while all of them were out in the city to shop the essential things such as foods and tools to chop the wood for the Winter or selling them to the Sawmills. But when they arrived back at their home, they have seen it on fire, and that has made the move into another location, but this time in the Kingdom of Romania.
When they arrived there and bought a home close to the Dobrat, the capital of the Kingdom of Romania, and they also have born their second kid, which was the Aunt of Leo, but when the second kid has come their mother has died. That time was hard for the father, but mostly for the kids, especially to Leo Father who had an amazing relationship mother-son, and she also teaches her son about numbers and letters. Which this thing will help him in the future when he will hire as a butler to a nobleman family, who will later kick him out since he didn't kill their own daughter who was about to inheritance a valuable resource of gold from their Uncle who was at that time, the King of this amazing Kingdom.
But a few years later, the young girl who has inherited the gold, has become now a fine noble lady, and she gives Leo Father ten thousand gold coins, which has made him incredibly rich at that time. And when he got that amount of money, he bought three buildings which will make him rich enough to become a nobleman: a sawmill in the forests of Dobrat, one Tavern in Dobrat (which is the one our main character has visited a long time ago when he has begun his journey as a squire) and a house destinated to a noble family, and it is the home of Leo, the character who has the same interests with Diana and was about to marry her.
These two have met for the first time in the Forest which is the zone Diana has visited a while ago with her apprentice who wanted to make his Butcher round and also get a much better job, other than cutting meat and selling for a cheap price to anyone, and free to nobles because "that is the law". Those two were in that forest a few years ago, and both of them had the same reason why they were there, to catch a blue-deer. A specimen of deer known for her blue fur which contains an important ingredient for creating mana potion or some usual wands for wizards or mages.

Diana aims with her bow the specimen of a blue deer who is at a far distance from her, and he is drinking from a river an essential substance that helps her and any other living thing survive in this world, water, pure water who is following through human body, help plants grew which in return helps humans and animals by breathing and help animals to hydrate themselves because like humans, animals need a lot of water to drink.
"Gotcha." whispers Diana being prepared to shot her arrow at any time.
But then, one arrow comes from the other direction to the blue deer, and he completely misses, at just three meters from her head, who was looking in Diana direction, and she launched her arrow by mistake, but that one mistake helped her to catch the deer. The arrow that was flying from Diana arrow was throwing at a high speed and he completely penetrates the deer head. making the deer fall fast into a deep and eternal sleep, and also fall on the ground.
Diana leaves her location, and he heard some steps coming from her direction. She turns around, prepared with her bow and arrow to shot that person, but when she turned around, was completely unprepared for the thing she was about to encounter, Leo, her ex-fiance and also the guy who gave her a crossbow as a gift to her, which is the one he is using right now to aim at Diana.
"Sorry, fine lady. But this is my dear." says Leo while he is aiming his crossbow at Diana and prepared for anything.
"No it isn't. My shot has killed her." she responds to Leo and she is aiming his head with her bow and arrows.
"Are you sure? Because your arrow has missed your target."
"Are you blind? That is your arrow! Mine has a goose feather on the wooden part."
Leo took a look at the arrow that was hitting the tree instead of the deer, and he then looks at Diana arrows. Diana is using her goose feather attached to an arrow, which corresponds to the description she gave earlier. Leo let the crossbow down, and the same did Diana.
"Look. I am sorry." says Leo who is raising his hand to Diana. "Your prey it belongs to."
"Thanks." she replied Diana who is shaking the guy hand. "My name is Diana Lunderberg, by the way."
"My name is Leonardo, but friends call me Leo."
"Okay. Leo. Are you new in these woods?"
"Actually. Yeah. I usually hunt in the Tulcea Woods, cause of the rabbits and crows. But this is my first time hunting here, at a forest close to the Capital City."
"Where are you from?"
"From Oradea, but yesterday I moved here."
"So you are from Oradea... A nobleman?"
"Yes, I am."
"I knew it."
"How?"
"Your clothes."
Leo looks at his clothes for a second to realize that he runs into the forest by using his good and also expensive clothes. His Father will most likely school him, or worse he will punish him by not hunting.
"Oh... And you are a peasant?"
"Isn't obvious?" asks Diana who is making Leo and her laugh, even though this was not her good joke.

A few months ago, Leo and Diana have started to meet more often since they have encountered each other time in the forest, by hunting a few specimens of blue deer. Those two were going almost everyday hunting and selling together their catch to the merchants or in Central Square. And there come to some rumours about those two as being a couple or a secretly married couple. And those rumours have arrived at the ears of Leo father, and also at the ones of Diana family.
These two families are not knowing that much, or they actually never met before, but those two families have the same thing which is making them friendly and cooperate even today, they have a child who is acting like a nerd but also as an adventurer. And those two have tried for a few times to marry them... Two times to be precise. One time they were trying to create an arranged marriage, but then, right at the altar, both of them said the same thing.
"I am sorry, but I am not prepared to be in a relationship."
Which for some families means a bad thing because most of the families are made by adults who are sixteen years old, and there was even one family who has created thanks to a horny kid at ten and having a widow as a wife, and she was the one who was taking care of their child because a child taking care of his son it is a thing which will never work, not even in the future.
The second time has not even worked because these two have decided to stop by a couple and all, but remain friends united by hunting, and doing some handcrafting together sometimes. Then, the families have decided to remain close and not force their own children's to marriage anymore and instead, helping them in their lives.
