His family, stewards of the [[Teslek Mega-Farms Corporation]], wielded immense influence, yet Merik’s upbringing was steeped in humility and duty, instilled by his war-scarred father, [[Malek Teslek]], and his nurturing mother, [[Lûwela Niiran Teslek]]. At less than a [[Lethurèan Calendar|Lethurèan Year]], he was introduced to his life long friend and future partner, [[Mèra Ûrlek Teslek|Princess Mèra]]. They were fast friends and proved inseparable.

From an early age, Merik was captivated by the lore and dangers of the [[Northern Reaches]], a region haunted by the lingering malevolence of the long dead [[Det'sikar]] killed during the ancient [[Battle of the Northern Reaches]].

He found he had a unique immunity to the malice of the [[Det'sikar Burial Mounds|Burial Mounds]]. | From an early age, Merik was captivated by the lore and dangers of the [[Northern Reaches]], a region haunted by the lingering malevolence of the long dead [[Det'sikar]] killed during the ancient [[Battle of the Northern Reaches]].
