It wasn't long before Tide, who had known little but hunger in his short life, fell into despair. Finding nothing but corrupt villages and abandoned settlements, he made camp in the ruins of old mines, and often carried with him only what tools he could lift from the bodies of explorers who had died in the same hills. Passing through villages and offering what services he could provide (in whatever poor quality he could provide them) yielded only enough food to survive the harsh nights, and occasionally Tide enjoyed the protection of a local guard unit.
One late day, Tide had stopped at a local lake to quench his thirst, and rest his wounds in a clearing; safe from the ravenous predators he was accustomed to. His habit was to rest until he had the strength to make a short climb, then attempt to gain enough elevation to process his surroundings. As he started to climb the foothills of a mountain, he was greeted by the compassionate voice of a local Abbot, who fed Tide, and tended to his wounds. The Abbot then told Tide of an old settlement in the vacinity vicinity of a well-secured abbey. Overwhelmed with relief, Tide build a temporary settlement in the lake Lhasa valley, and enjoyed the first comforts of a real community that he'd had since the dissolution of his former monestarymonastery.
After weeks of gathering resources, Tide was finally invited to join the order of the Abbey, and now stands among the ranks of some of the great men of the world. He has since built Aquinata hall, his current residence, and is reforesting the Lhasa area. He continues to work in peace and hope, and constantly appreciates the company of his fellow monks.
