Saruffen was shaken to the core by the terrible sight he
beheld. Even he knew that his father was down-and-dirty he did never expect his father being capable of doing such harm. In this moment he felt concentrated hate for the first time in his life and only therefore he had the ability to transform in shadow form, which gave him ultimate strength. Unfortunately he could not think straight while being transformed and thus he was totally enraged and killed his father. When he awoke from this nightmare he ran confused away by reason of his foul deed. Without knowing his identity and without sense of time he strayed through the woods until he sank to the floor and passed out.
There he was lying between leaves and moss until he was found by some orcish scouts who brought him to Lord Krill due to he exuded something very powerful. Lord Krillt over praised his scouts for bringing him Saruffen. He was impressed by Saruffen’s view. A young unskilled boy with an excellent physique made for fighting. Furthermore he was fraught with anger, exactly what Krillt needed. With this boy’s help he would be able to make his dream come true, to annihilate Slinsil.
“Saruffen, what’s going on with you?” Inredhel asked puzzled. It was a comical situation because Saruffen just stood in front of Inredhel and stared into the space. ”Saruffen my sweetheart, do you know what your name stands for?” his mother asked him. “No mom, I haven’t any idea.” This name comes from an ancient language which hasn’t been spoken anymore for a long long time. “Sar” means as much as hope and “uffen” means something like light or warmth. This was the last time he saw his mother.
“If my mother knew to what I’ve become she would be gutted. I cannot believe what has happened to me. I did never want to be a murderer” he said in a distressed manner to Inredhel. “I think I can help you, Saruffen but only if you believe in me.” Saruffen hesitated but at last he agreed with Inredhel. She came up to Saruffen and touched his chest. She gathered herself and used of all her power to suck all bad elements out of Saruffen’s heart.
