| - When Graham was young, he grew up in Daventry, he was great friends with a young boy named Malvolio. The two of them grew up together in the same village, and knew each other their entire lives. Both enjoyed playing bat and ball in the Castle's vegetable garden. One day while playing ball Malvolio accidently struck a ball over the castle striking King Edward in the head. When Graham took the full blame, Edward commended him and encouraged him to become a knight. He later went to the Daventry High School (unofficial). Graham never payed attention during his magic classes in school, as a result he cannot read books of magic. After taking the throne of Daventry, the realm prospered, but Graham became distracted and lonely. This was clearly evident when he was speaking with Gervain, his mind wandering several times during the minister's report. Gervain then prompted Graham to look into the Magic Mirror for guidance. The Mirror prompted him to go to Kolyma. Graham was tied to an ancient Prophecy (unofficial) which foretold his destiny was to travel to Kolyma, and come before the Door of Destiny, which would him to his destined wife. During his quest, he seemed to get vague messages from the imprisoned Valanice. This was clearest after his failed escape from Caldaur's castle, when he saw her in a vision after nearly falling to his death. These messages from her also appeared as lines in the Tower Realm's sand. He was able to defeat Hagatha in this timeline by distracting her with a tainted youth potion, then blinding her with reflected sunlight. Hagatha stumbled back and fell out of the tower, presumably to her death; though no body was ever found. After escaping the Tower's Realm with Valanice, Graham encountered Caldaur, who welcomed them both and spirited them away to his palace to conduct the wedding. After the wedding they were sent home, where Graham confronted Gervain about his treachery. After a fierce, but decisive swordfight, Gervain showed his true form as "The Father" and cursed the newlyweds, setting in motion the family's and kingdom's misfortunes to follow. Years later, Manannan had kidnapped Alexander, presumably on The Father's orders. The three-headed dragon (presumably summoned by The Father) had ruined Daventry, and Rosella had offered herself as the dragon's latest sacrifice. Yet, even that was not going to appease the beast for long. The Father appeared at Graham's darkest hour and offered a cruel deal; he would dismiss the dragon,heal Daventry, and even bring back Graham's children in exchange for the crown of Daventry. Graham was tempted, but realized the Father would never keep such promises and refused. Many years later, with Alexander reigning in the Green Isles, and Rosella by Edgar's side in Etheria, the aged Graham looked for a new champion. He found that champion in Connor of Daventry, a humble blacksmith who had undertaken the dangerous quest to restore the Mask of Eternity. As Edward the Benevolent had done for him, Graham did for Connor, marking him as First Knight and heir to Daventry.
