A piece of lore from within the game.
A Boy to a Man []
"When the sun rose the first day of his hunt, the grass was still wet from the few and he could hear the birds chirping in the trees. He gathered his things and prepared to leave.
"On his way out he was stopped by his mother. She asked why he had to leave to protect the village, why he couldn't complete his personal quest from the village itself. Her thought about this question, and replied with a simple answer... It takes a Man to complete the hunt."
