PLOTNOTES FOR FLASHBACK THREAD
-Being taken and seeing only darkness
-Waking up in a makeshift cell next to several other boys who were mean to him
-First few days are hot, hungry and painful as the underground Zith force him to work and beat him because he doesn't "listen"
-A week later he notices a boy Anzu and his "looks"
-Anzu realises he is deaf and goes to his aid when he's made fun of for his newcomer attitude and disability
-He thanks Anzu but Anzu merely shrugs it off
-They become more of friends and work for another five years, chatting and having fun messing with other people until they plan an escape after many failed trials
-They escape the castle-barely-and get onto a trading wagon headed to Alvadas
-After travelling for a couple of seasons in the back of a crowded carriage, they find themselves in the forests on the outskirts of Alvadas and get out, carrying on by foot until they find his family's old cabin
-No one is in the cabin so he and Anzu take care of it for a while until they find jobs and a plan for their future together
