Sam Hain VIII

This weekend, October 5-7 of the year 2012, I attended my first event. It was a fantastic experience. I traveled with my teacher, Oroku Norinaga, to Crystal Springs in Utah. On the way, we picked up a fellow Hireling of the Dread Gate Mercenary Alliance, Echo. The nights were cold, the days were beautiful, the hot tub was warm, and most of all, the fighting was excellent and clean. I felt myself becoming a more controlled fighter as the day progressed, and I couldn't have been happier with my performance. I met lots of new people, made new friends, and met some legends. I may have even let slip the dark secret of my lineage (My father was half mini-van.) I am so glad that this was my first event, and I am eagerly looking forward to next event season. For now, I will continue to work hard, play hard, and grow as a Belegrim and a person.
