Obediah Marsh has been through a lot.
He returned home from the War to find his wife and small son dead, victims of some raid or another. He buried them, burned down his homestead and went into the woods. Three years later, he lives in a small cabin he built with his hands, surviving on fish and berries and nuts and honey and living with a scrappy raccoon he named Mister Jenks after a particular pugnacious drill sergeant he knew.
He's a haunted man. Born a skinwalker, he put his skills to use during the War as a scout and guide. He was shot numerous times, nearly died twice and saw his friends and comrades killed and maimed. During one of his recoveries he had a dream where a great wooly beast showed him the land as it was before the wars came, before men crawled across the ice and sea to civilize it. When he returned home to find his wife and son dead, he knew that civilization was not for him anymore. But you can't escape civilization, not really. You can only keep moving and hope to delay it. And it seems civilization has come looking for Obediah.
