As a result of this Guy sees himself and those of his bloodline as the rightful rulers of the land and the true rulers of the people of Dunland. His father Don, also believed this and passed the idea down to his children. With a iron fist Don of Dunland moved to unite the hill land tribes into one organized front to attack Rohan and regain there land. However in the mist of his conquest of his own people he was assassinated by a female night blade. This left his title and control over the clans he had conquered to his eldest son, Guy. 

Guy grew up the son of a ambitious King, a man looking to restore his people. As a result of this expectations were high on Guy as his father planned to hand his son a restored kingdom when he died. The first thing he made sure to do was to teach Guy how to read. No one in the clan knew how to read and as a result he was forced to send Guy to The Mountains of Lune to learn. After being schooled by the dwarves guy returned home to be placed under gruesome training.  He was tested and tried over and over again. His teachers moved to breed weakness from his bones and to challenge him to think outside of the box his people had placed themselves in.

He knew that power could be gained though the blade, but could only be held though the tong. In a effort to teach Guy was sent to allied clans to speak with there leader and to study there ways.
