NARRATOR POV

In the heart of Vacuo lived a large but poor Family. They moved from town to town living in the desert always moving. But today they stayed in one town as the Mother was about to have her sixth child. Being the last child that she would ever have the Family called it a miracle he was even born. The boy was named Gilgamesh after his great, great Grandfather the former King of Vacuo. For the first five years of his life the boy was pampered by both his Mother and Father telling him he was to be the great deliverer that would help their people escape from slavery. You see when the Boys great, great Grandfather was overthrown their people were then used as slaves to compensate for the actions they had committed. Only few escaped and are still hunted to this day. The siblings of Gilgamesh grew hateful toward their new Brother and soon enough...sold him to a slaver. He was then put to work as a slave but his mind was already made up. He believed himself to be greater than any man women or child in the world. That they were simply dirt under his boot. He would often remind the other slaves and even the gaurds. They would all beat him down for it. However, that all changed once his Semblance manifested. The Gates of Babylon, a seemingly infinite place full of the great treasures of the world collected by his ancestors years ago. Once he escaped he set out in hope's of not being just a King in title alone. Though the boy was only ten he made his way to Vale and was found by the Headmaster of Beacon who had taken a interest in his strange Semblance. Ozpin and Glynda were looking at a news reports of Gilgamesh.
