I was born in the year 5013 BD (that's approx. 9853 BC for you new-age folks) in Shagetau. That was back when the Jews were still pouring over that snake-statue of theirs, while Egypt was still trying to recover from a great economical crisis. I don't know too much about that year, though, because I don't remember much from the day I was born, but I believe there was a lot of warring going on. Then again, when I was a lad, war was all anyone talked about. The entire world had gone to war, so it seemed! And yet, some people were able to escape it; they fled to the deserts, and formed their own countries out in the waste. Yes, it seems like only yesterday their eyes filled with terror as the sun burned red, and they started making all those crazy prophecies and all that nonsense. Still, i've had a good run, and I do believe I'll be here to see the next few milleniums. I'm only a young man, after all.
