Ramyr was born in Woodhurst in Western Rohan and raised in the mountians where the ores were plentiful and in great supply. It was in these peaceful mountians where he trained to be a swordsmith like his father. The horses were mostly used to help carry the weapons but they still rode. Practicing for when Rohan's call to arms came for Ramyr. His father was too old for battle, and too valuable as far as smithing goes to risk in battle.

This peaceful life continued as the dangers grew in the mountians and into adulthood. Ramyr knew that one day they would move. He wasn't blind to the growing danger, but didn't realize how close it had become. This is what brought him from his father's forge, his peaceful hearth, and warm bed.

The Blackwold's attacked the hidden mountian smithy wanting the weapons that was stored for travel to Woodhurst. Their leader ordered Ramyr to be put in irons and it wasn't for a great many months before he gotten his chance to escape. This is how his tale begins.
