Life on the Border
Talfein was born into a life of oddity, his families clan had earned the favor of a local lord generations ago and they had integrated into a society of humans without any fuss what so ever just on the border between The Arcai Forrest and Deepwoods of The Free Lands. This meant that unlike other beasts in the forest his people became just as accomplished if not more scholars and noble men and women. Talfein was a perfect example of such and voraciously consumed knowledge and took to new styles of writing and skills like a man of divine motivations.

As with those who succeed he garnered favor with a lovely young woman who lived on the outskirts of town, he won her heart with honeyed words and made her way into her bed before long. But as he returned home one day from a day of studying at a local farmhouse he stopped to help a woman who had been trapped in a house fire. This woman was so happy to be alive she kissed Talfein on the lips, little to his knowledge in front of his would be lover.

In a blind rage she rushed back to her small cabin on the edge of town, and cursed him, to never again be treated as a man, and never use his honeyed words on another woman, convinced he was a horrible philanderer. Hurt and shocked by his now diminished state, he set off to leave, knowing he would never again be taken seriously reduced to a mewling man-cat unable to properly express himself through eloquent speech, or worse yet unable to explain himself to his once-lover.
