When it did not seem as if could get any worse, Pitru's parents were both killed in an outbreak of a deadly disease known as the Ašvat Hibra (Great Reaper) and he was nearly killed by the illness himself. By some miracle, he survived, but not before he was stripped of what little property his Clan had left. By virtue of the fact that all his relatives were now dead, the title of Sifan of Clan Punstraia passed to Pitru, although it became nothing more than another target on his back. At age 22, Pitru had become a farmer on the outskirts of the city and intended to live simply to preserve his shaky safety.
 
===LeavingExile Ddazafrom Yuvantiya===
But even in this passive state, Pitru drew the ire of the magistrates of Ddaza, who wished to try him for inciting the outbreak of disease, hoping to finally rid their city of the Punstraia for good. Now fearing for his life, Pitru fled Ddaza into the nearby forest in the midst of particularly terrible winter rains. In this forest, he fell asleep, weak and weary from hours of running, only to be awoken by a grand spectacle. Before Pitru were the gods of his faith, Afi - the Sun, Jorb - the Moon, Xamu - the Earth. The three gods warned him of a search party out to kill him, prepared to carry out Pitru's execution ordered by the Ddazan magistrates.

===The Great Trek===
Senate awoke in a field of low grass and sparse trees. He looked around, hopefully safe from his enemies at last, seeing a blue sky and beautiful nature of a new land: Alathra. The gods came to him once more and promised to uphold his current safety, but only if Senate could survive a punishment for his renouncing of his faith to save his own life. Pitru would stay in this realm, Alathra, for the next 306 years. After serving this penance, as long as he respected the authority and will of the gods throughout it, he would be able to return to his home realm of Yuvantiya and retire to the small farming life he had attempted to start up before his exile. ImbuedAlthough he was ill-prepared, Pitru was imbued with a will to survive and persist, Senateresolving to set out into the wildforeign lands of Alathra that now surrounded him, never to be the same again.
 
Before they took their leave, the gods gifted Senate with his family's hunting bow, the Malnourished Hippopotamus, an object he had left at his home in Yuvantiya. Although lost for two years after the [[Great Alathran War]], Senate would regain the weapon, leaving it in his possession to this day. The bow is the only object he has left from his old life in Yuvantiya.
Setting off from the pristine hills he had found himself in, Pitru travelled South, encountering the great city of [[Lothridge]]. Fearing that he would be attacked for his unknown status in Lothridge, Pitru stopped short of entering the city, and began making an arduous journey West. He trekked through the mountains surrounding Lothridge and found himself near a large river that he called the Draxí, named after the poppies he encountered on one side of the river. Crossing the Draxí would not be easy, however, and Pitru was brutally attacked by a Skeleton firing at him from the shore. Although he survived, Senate was now badly injured and needed shelter and food.

Although he survived, Senate was now badly injured and needed shelter and food.
Praying to his deities, the gods directed him to a nearby forest for refuge. The forest seemed mystical in a sense, and although he could not investigate further, Pitru swore he witnessed a bright glow shining from deep in the thick of trees. This mystic nature healed Senate's wound, and he would go on to honor and swear to protect any forest with a tree (Dark oak) alike to the ones in the mystical forest. The forest provided him with enough wild berries to sustain him for a few months and the abundant woods made for good boat-building material. Senate believed by building a boat, he could perhaps sail to a land more conducive for habitation, or perhaps, other signs of civilization (barring his unfounded fearful encounter with Lothridge). Pitru set up a small camp, fished from the nearby Angler Lake, and was soon able to construct a crude vessel. Loading it with as many berries as he could, Pitru climbed in and sailed out towards the sea.

Upon sailing out to the sea, Pitru quickly noticed a large landmass on the horizon. He rowed towards it and landing not far from a small fishing village. Going north, Pitru had his first sight of civilization outside of Lothridge: [[Kais Kogong]]. He trekked towards the town, not knowing what to expect, and not possibly able to predict that an encounter with the Kogongi would change his life forever.
