"Don't know who did it, but I'm certain it was some other ambitious nobles. Burned down the family home I heard, everyone in my family died there. Father, mother, brothers and sisters." Ash took a deep drink from his glass. "I was here when it all happened. Completely helpless to helping my own family... Well, anyways, I really didn't have much left for myself anywhere. I stayed in the military, was already a Captain by that point. Part of that was because of being a minor noble, but I was actually a half decent Captain too." He chuckled slightly.
"I was mostly stationed on The Rock for a long time. This place was a hell, and Sorillia made it more so. When the Oblivion Crisis started to break though, we got called back into action. Lost track of the time honestly... I do remember a part of the fleet I was with came face to face with Oblivion though... It was... A massacre."

Steppenwolf smiled. "Well, this is certainly a little different than I'm accustomed to, must be a Rockian game. Still, should be fun. May the best man or woman win!" He raised his glass in a playful toast before taking a drink.
As the game got underway, Steppenwolf's smile did not fade in the slightest. "Call." He placed his own bag of coins on the table now as he took another drag from the long, stick cigarette he held.
