History
Myre was born in the Winter of 453NE, the second son and child of Highlord Erik Blackspeare. He had an older brother Willhem, three years older than himself, and a sister called Eija, two years his younger, and the three of them were very close growing up. As the second son, Myre was never given the same responsibilities as his older brother, being the second born, he was not due to inherit his fathers lands and titles. Therefore he was taught how to ride, fight and many other things, but the one thing he wasn't given a piece of, was responsibility. Myre loved not having to be responsible for anything, and unlike most second sons, he adored his position. He never had to spend any time learning, how to rule, for he would never do it, at least he thought he wouldn't. This way he could partake in any hobbies he pleased, and although he liked fighting and hunting, his true hobby was rather peculiar. He loved to climb. He spent a lot of his time scaling the towers at Falconsreach and the Cliff just outside the Castle walls. He did this to watch other peoples lives. Observe their every move. From dawn till dusk he'd watch the people in the the citadel from atop of the tower, and soon he bag to learn peoples daily habits, what they'd do at what times and where they'd go. This way he became very observant, and he preferred learning like this, rather than spending hours in the library with Old Nik pouring over endless amounts of books. He watched people make mistakes, and he watch people make the right decisions, and he believes this is where he learn how to govern, without even knowing it.
