Ethan was born into one of the most venerable aristocratic families, which for generations had served kings as elite knights of the Order of the Steel Blade. Ethan's father, Lord Garrett, was a legendary warrior who lost an eye in battle during the war, and his mother, Elira, came from a line of diplomats and was renowned for her keen intellect, which complemented her husband's brute strength. From a very early age, Ethan was groomed for his family's destiny—a life dedicated to the blade and faithful service to the kingdom. At age five, he held a wooden sword, and by age eight, he had graduated to real steel under the stern tutelage of his mentor, Thorn. Training was merciless: from dawn to dusk, Ethan practiced strikes, parries, and stances, learning the ancient techniques of the Order. His family saw him as the embodiment of the ideal—a tall, slender youth with dark hair, piercing light-blue eyes, and an indomitable spirit. His siblings envied his talent, but Ethan remained humble, motivated not by glory but by duty to his family and crown. By 13, Ethan had become a true phenomenon. At the annual tournament, he fought on equal terms with adult warriors. His style was lightning fast and precise. His family was immensely proud of him—Lord Garret declared Ethan "the hope of the Craymers," and rumors of the young man spread throughout the kingdom. At the age of 17, during the Great Royal Tournament in the capital, King Regnar II, known for his belligerence and love of combat, decided to personally test the "young upstart of the Craymer family." The crowd held its breath as the monarch, in his prime and wielding the royal sword, entered the arena. The duel lasted only ten minutes: Ethan dodged powerful blows, counterattacked with surgical precision, and finally forced the king to retreat by touching his shoulder with the tip of his blade. The king's defeat was a sensation. Soon after, the king made a wise decision: Ethan was appointed palace marshal—one of the youngest in the kingdom's history. In this role, he was responsible for palace security, guard training, and the monarch's personal protection.
