Gustav Brandt was a mercenary soldier with the French Forces in Vietnam. While relaxing in Saigon, he met and fell in love with Lua. After a whirlwind courtship lasting only two months, they were married. However, as they left the church they were confronted by Lua's brother, the crime lord Monsieur Khruul, who hated occidentals (Europeans and Westerners) and led his men to try to kill them. They barely escaped with their lives. |
After ten months on the run, Lua, who had become pregnant, had to stop to give birth. After they delivered their daughter, they built a small hut to live in, but then Khruul's men caught up to them, using flamethrowers to torch their home. Lua was killed, and the flames blinded Gustav, though he managed to escape with their daughter, fleeing into the jungles. After an unknown number of days, he came across the temple of the Priests of Pama, who offered to teach him to see by other means and train him towards enlightenment. However, as he was a soldier, they refused to allow him to raise his daughter, raising her themselves instead. |
The Priests of Pama trained Brandt who, over the course of years, learned to function perfectly without eyes. He then began to sneak away, observing his daughter's training. However, he was never allowed to communicate with her. |
Brandt gradually forgot his love for the daughter he no longer knew, and eventually he left the Temple, allegedly trained in body, but not in mind; his previous goals in life money, power, love remained untouched. |
