Have you ever heard anything about a farmer changing the world? I'll tell you why you haven't: it's 'cause none of them ever have. If you want to be remembered, you need to make an impact. You can't let anyone forget you. As long as at least one person does, you'll always have someone who cares about you.
That's what he thought. His family? Nooot so understanding. At first, they thought he was joking around. But, when he wouldn't stop talking about it and it slowly started to occur to them that he was serious, they didn't really...handle it well. It should have broken his spirit, but nope - that kid wasn't going to be stopped. So, one day, he decided to leave his home and his family, and make his fortune as a knight in another land. He wasn't going to come back, not until he made his dream come true. Even though his family expected him to come crawling back, he was absolutely, positively sure that everything would work out for him. Eventually.
