Gwaedyn was trained in the Algraig way of survival from the young age of ten, he learned how to swing an axe, how to make camp, and how to roast food in the wilderness. his father was a warrior that kept the village safe by patrolling in the forests near it for any intruders or beasts coming too close. Gwaedyn toke over his father's genetics with his height and strength although many would argue that these aren't genetics and are just luck or the result of eating lots of bear meat. His father trained Gwaedyn fiercely, no day nor night went finished without some training done, the first thing Gwae learned is that no matter what size or strength an enemy has, it can die. After fierce training from his young age of ten up to coming of man-hood. He got word from his father that he was to go up north and see what lurks there then come back and tell the clan of his learnings. He thought that maybe this is another test and hopefully, it's a test he will succeed. Of course he was not along in this, his two other brothers came along with him, they were both older then him, most likely to observe and help when they could.
