As a boy, despite showing a hefty talent with magic from an early age, it was not like his parents were able to afford any sort of tutor or formal education, nor were they willing to part with their only son; his father was only growing older, and the work of tilling the poor soil his own grandfather had so stubbornly insisted he could cultivate after retiring from the war wasn’t getting any easier. Almost certain that he would live his whole life and die without ever setting foot outside of the dusty farmlands that he'd been born in, Alain had nonetheless suppressed his growing wanderlust and discontent as best he could, for the sake of his parents and his younger sisters if not for himself. He often compromised by training his skills alone by candlelight each night, working the fields diligently by his father’s side during the day. Eventually though, as the man’s health further and further deteriorated, Alain’s situation quickly began to sour as the costs of caring for the ailing man and continuing to tend a dead and barren field that yielded barely enough to feed them (let alone enough surplus to garner a profit) began to mount higher than the simple farmers could ever hope to overcome. It was then that Alain made a decision: rather than staying in this god-forsaken place and continuing the folly of his great-grandsire, he would find another way- he would travel to larger settlements and to the cities and he would do what the men of his family for the past 3 generations had barely managed- he would find a way to end the Cromwells poverty. Though he’d spent all 17 years of his life so far on that farm, in that town, wallowing in the same barren dust futily, he had confidence in his skills; He lacked the sophisticated theoretical knowledge of formally trained mage, in fact he lacked most things a formal mage had access to. But even for all he lacked, he had possessed the determined drive to teach himself, using his own intuition, his own observations, studying whatever used and worn tomes he could get his hands on until he knew them like the back of said hands. He pushed himself not only for the sake of one day bettering his family’s lot, but his own lot as well; he would be damned if he lived his entire life without ever seeing the world outside this barren farm or what the outside world held, and it just served as all the more motivation to power through any failure he experienced during those late night practice sessions. His technique was crude, but in a way reflective of his own mindset; rather than drawing upon an in depth, scientific understanding of the forces being conjured, all he had was his own intuition and raw willpower, but it seemed those two factors alone got the job done, and that was good enough for Alain’s needs. Afterall, a mercenary need only hit and destroy their target and defend their clients. And so, leaving his parents and sisters a letter of farewell, he set off into the dark one night, following the main road out of town, and hopefully, to a better future than the squalor they all had known. At that point, anything was a better alternative than staying and watching them slowly drown in debt, and any job he could find as a sellsword would provide far more income for them than anything he could earn trying to revive a plot of land that had never been alive to begin with.
