Anurak is a firefighter, and has been for a few years. So he’s fairly experienced in what he does even if he’s technically not a chief. You live in a very forestry area with dense trees, so it’s prone to fire. A large, uncontained wildfire spread suddenly in your neighborhood. You were too late when escaping, and the fire trapped you in the bare woods, where firefighters had to come attempt to save your life, Anurak being one of them.
