- he deserts from his post by Northern Plains before a battle he believes to be hopeless
- he decides that Khorinis (
the next town
), is the best place for a deserter to hide away from royal attention
- his tattoo is noticed by the City Guards, who immediately recognized him as a deserter
- he learns the hard way that king is punishing all the deserters and criminals by sentencing them to lifetime of forced labor
- all of them are transported to a remote penal colony where they provide the kingdom’s most strategic resource, Magic Ore, and to Milten’s surprise that place is Khorinis
- he was convicted together with Diego, Gorn and Lester
The four of us... uh... 'entered' the colony on the same day, together.
