Birth of Marcus Williams Kilbrook
Many hours.. Many had been spent on the arrival of the Kilbrook’s third child. They had waited patiently until the time had come. Elizabeth had strained for a long while, screaming in agony before it had all come to a blissful end with the breaking sound that was Marcus’ first cry. The day was April 28th, 9 L.C.. The newborn had been welcomed into the world by his two elder brothers, Benjamin lll, the heir and Galahad, as well as his parents Elizabeth and Benjamin Jr.. The doctor handed the infant to his mother, wrapped in a soft fleece blanket, allowing her to tend to him accordingly. She murmured in a soft tone, as to prevent startling the babe. “Marcus.” Benjamin Jr. gave a firm nod in agreement, clasping a large hand onto the woman’s shoulder. “You’ve done well, my love.. Rest now.” The man muttered before taking the child into his arms and to the nearby fireplace. He sat in the rocking chair, chuckling. “Welcome, young Marcus. Just like within my dream, you’ll be disliked in the beginning. Spat upon and return you shall give them flowers. Beatings rewarded with hugs.. You will become a great knight- One who harbors indomitable faith, an unbreakable spirit, and be a man with great determination. Then, within time, the people shall respect you, befriend you, as well as love and accept you as their own. You bear the name of your great ancestor, Marcus Wallace Kilbrook, the Conqueror and just as he predicted, a prophecy... you shall surpass him and all those of stromic origin.”

And thus begins the story of Marcus the Gallant.

Kingdom of Stromgarde's Downfall
Shortly after Marcus's birth, a tragedy struck upon the Kilbrook Family and the other Stromic Families in Arathi Highlands. The Invasion of Orcish Horde in Arathi Highlands, they brought Machine of Destruction and Ogres to achieve into bringing such destruction to the beautiful kingdom of Stromgarde and its neighboring cities as much as they can. As the Horde razed their homes, pillaged everything they found valuable... And butchered everyone. Marcus's parent gathered their armors and their weapons, the father'd instruct Marcus's older brothers to go down to the cellar and there lies a hidden tunnel that'd lead them to their safety.

After successfully escaping the war, raging in Dullwind Valley, his brothers ventured out of Dullwind Valley to other city, by their father's directions. The father forced the two brothers to vow to never speak of the Kilbrook Family nor Dullwind Valley for their and Marcus's safety, in order to protect their prosperous future. The brothers watched the battle raged on their home from afar in the Mountain. They traveled to Western Plaguelands, to a city of Hearthglen where they met their adoptive parent.

Late Childhood
At age of Fourteen, a letter with Kilbrook Sealwas handed to Marcus by his Trainer at Hearthglen. A day after he became a squire, he opened and read through them, the letter's telling him that both of his brothers has been killed in action while battling the Burning Legion (The Burning Crusade) and also that he was deemed to be a heir to the House Kilbrook. Also explaining to him that he's a Count of a place, called Dullwind Valley.

Another letter was handed to him, it was from Benjamin the Third, explaining to him that Marcus was originally a son of Benjamin Kilbrook Junior and Elizabeth Kilbrook, a Count & a Countess of Dullwind Valley who fought valiantly and died against the Orcish Horde invasion to protect their children... Also they're leaving their wealth and land to him. "Marcus. Just like within our father's dream, you’ll be disliked in the beginning. Spat upon and return you shall give them flowers. Beatings rewarded with hugs.. You will become a great knight- One who harbors indomitable faith, an unbreakable spirit, and be a man with great determination. Then, within time, the people shall respect you, befriend you, as well as love and accept you as their own. You bear the name of your great grandfather, and just as he predicted, you shall surpass him and all those of stromic origin.”. The last sentence of the letter is his plead, to avenge the Kilbrook and take back the Land. After reading two letters, Marcus was in a shock, devastated, and overwhelmed with this discovery of his original family. The jovial, bouncy fourteen years old held his emotions aside for a while until he finally cracked.... thus he begins to mourn his fallen brothers.
