The Weylyn family was an old one that had many separate branches. Having settled in Otterburn from across the ocean, they were closely the first to settle here. Peace would not last though, as others arrived and settled too. When told a town would be built here they denied the founding family charter and as so, they were outcastes on a certain level. The family went through many problems with land ownership, but it was decided that they could keep there land up on the hill overlooking the tree's which separated them from Otterburn, and overlooking Otterburn itself. This place, was where the young Daniel Weylyn had lived for seven whole years.<br/><br/>There was really no property line; but as the family owned the house itself, the hill it was on was considered theirs. The Weylyn's were some of the few to stay here from generation to generation. It was sort of the families legacy to stay here without traveling the world. This really only made people suspicious, saying things akin to "What are they hiding up there?" or, "Poor children every generation being forced to live life in that musty old place," and even the occasional, "I heard some shouts up at that house again... what type of things do they partake up there in that family?" Though everything was only speculation at this point.<br/><br/>The young boys of the family were always making a ruckus up in the woods, not many spoke about it; but it was a widely known fact they made a game of scaring people for fun in the dull place. People only paid real attention to it because nothing much happened in Otterburn and a crying and slightly scared child was the peak of excitement. It was also known that the kids of the Weylyn's were also nice in the end; apologizing at next seeing the one they pranked on rare occasions. Then warning the kids about the stories of a strange animal, one that lurked up past the town in the deep woods that hunted and killed large animals for its food. No proof has surfaced yet whether or not these old stories are true though, and it is said they are just trying to prank the person once again.<br/>-<br/>Daniel Weylyn, the youngest was not particularly known. Even in comparison to the rarity of speaking to any other of the Weylyns in an actual conversation. At least until the young girl and her dog came sprinting out of the woods, the dog stopping before the startled Daniel himself.<br/><br/>He looked up as the girl came behind the dog, and held him back. Daniel nodding in response to the other kids demands on not running. With wide, more surprised rather than startled looking eyes the color of silver. The young seven year old didn't move from his kneeling position. He had been by a small stream rinsing his dirty hands when they had come from his right. The boy clearly very kind and raised well. "What's his name?" he asked, those his first words to the girl. He was now looking up at her with more a curious look. As he had not really talked to someone other than a family member before for any long period of time.
