He traveled all over the Mediterranean learning the mercantile trade and some less lawful skills. After a decade on the sea, Tariq wanted to set up roots somewhere. While trading with some Swedes, he found passage to the New World as their ship’s cook. Landing in Thorsburg, Tariq did what he could to survive and made a decent life for himself. He never truly felt at home with the Scandinavian pagans that surrounded him and decided to venture towards the Christian land of Nessex. Tariq boarded a trading vessel going to Kingston, but a storm blew it off course and it shipwrecked near the mouth of the Great King Godwin River. He traveled the woods of Dublinshire and Jorvikshire following the river north. He got a feel for the land and became a good hunter. He would also buy supplies in one town to sell in another, gaining him a bit of wealth. When he arrived in Jorviksburg he found a man trying unsuccessfully to haggle for grain for his family. Tariq stepped in and helped the man get a deal that would get them through the winter. That man was none other than Handsome Steve, who invited Tariq with him back to Worm’s Ferry. | fire from a Norse ship killing both his parents.
