Line 59:
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 in Arcadian after the flowers he encountered on
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). He set up a small camp, fished from the nearby Angler Lake, and worked to build up resources for a boat over the course of a month. Loading it with as many berries as he could, Pitru said goodbye to his small camp and climbed in, sailing out towards the sea.
