Rae came to the land of Kantas with a simple goal in mind, learning. This land of endless mysteries, an abundance of adventurers from all walks of life and years of ancient knowledge and history, this place will do. After earning a bit of gold to start off with on a short job in Port Ffirst and eventually ending up in Daring Heights, Rae went straight to the premier place of learning in the city that they've heard about, Daring Academy. But upon arrival, Rae's lack of worldly knowledge became apparent, one cannot simply wander into the academy without any money and expect to pick up all of the books they like. And so, moving on to the next option very quickly, Rae inquired about working for the Academy directly.
After some discussions and interviews, Rae began their work at the academy. After being shown about the premises and taught the basics an employee would need to know, Rae was set to work refreshing reference sheets, verifying quotations and doing any other menial tasks the academy asked of them to aid. Though Rae soon realised that work in a prestigious academy would not be simple. They considered themselves decently intelligent and organised, but the professional standard and sheer volume of knowledge needing to be kept here ended up somewhat overwhelming, and they often made mistakes and stumbled through their first few days. Feelings of being a big fish suddenly adrift in an ocean washed over Rae as they lay in bed at The Hung Rabbit, but none of these thoughts could overpower the sense of pride and excitement they felt in knowing that they are really making their dream happen. They are living their own life.
The next morning, Rae finds a post requesting aid of adventurers in New Hillborrow. With a chance to make some more money, and to see another new town on their journey, they pack up their supplies and head on out to meet this new experience.
