When I came here, I was hailed as a legendary hero. They said I'm some kind of savior to them—someone who could bring them to victory from the depths of defeat. I don't know how I got here neither such title worthy for a man such as myself.
To be honest, I don't know myself. I can't remember anything, my past and origin are shrouded in fog. The only tiny piece that came to me when the first time I came here was something I muttered when Commander Anna summoned me: Kiran.
It became my name, my identity.

After our previous skirmish in world of Archanea—thousand years since the time of Hero-King Marth to be exact, Robin, a tactician working for Exalt Chrom's Shepperds, approached me. Her interest purely more on curiousity rather than skeptism unlike most heroes I summoned.
"You experienced something similar to me, yes?"
I'm confused. What could be the esteemed tactician could relate with me? So I asked her the reason for her question.
She blinked then let out a chuckle. The way she react now is far cry from her behavior in battle. Back when the Order fought her, she is stern, very intimidating, and her Grandmaster's garb has proven both previous points are true. Here, dressed in her tactician's coat, she is just another jolly fellow enjoying her day.
"I used to be amnesiac, you know,"
It's my turn to be suprised. I don't know if I feel relieve for knowing someone once shares the same experience as I am or guilty because knowing her secret. Intrigued, I asked her regarding the subject and she tells me of her story. The story about how a nobody found a new family through bonds, unbreakable bonds.
But along the way she told me this, "Even if you forget who you are, the past no longer defines you. It's your present. Live and enjoy the fleeting life you still have, you might never know when it will gone. Cherish every moment of it."
She then left wandering the castle halls while I ponder her words. Maybe that's what I need, attachment. I might never know who I was, but I have many comrades that I can rely on for support.
Surrounded by many heroes might be not so bad after all.
