Who is Wigmar Heck?

 

Wigmar heck was born in the trade town of Stimmingen in 2475 to Dagna and Eldwin Heck. He had 5 brothers and two sisters. His father, both sisters, and his younger brother died of the plague. His mother jumped into the River Ober shortly after.

Wigmar was adopted by his uncle, Heller Heck, at the age of 5. His brother Kurt, age 7, was also taken into the same household. The older brothers, Josef (10) and Adler (12) went elsewhere. Wigmar and Kurt moved to nearby Dunkelberg and never really saw their siblings again.

That's the story Wigmar knew. But then he met Josef again many years after and the brother had a different tale to tell: Dagna and Eldwin were not Wigmar's birth parents. He had been adopted as an infant. Indeed, several of Wigmar's siblings were actually adoptees. A rather common practice truth be told, but not one Wigmar had contemplated.

So who is Wigmar Heck? Who are his real parents? Why was he given up? Is he actually related to Kastor Liberung?

Uncle Heller could possibly know something. But he's up in Ostland. Heller had three daughters Wigmar grew up alongside. Maybe they have some info? Sounds like a long shot.

Maybe Adler, the oldest of the brothers could have some information. But Josef has no idea where he might be now. 

What about the people of Stimmigen? Could they know something? Maybe, but it's been nearly twenty years and a lot of people passed away from the plague back then.
