Good, you have been. Understanding. I feel... I must tell of myself to you. Me words, please forgive, are not good. Me learning of letters came late to me. But I will try. You take my goods. Pass them on. Fair of me it is to reveal to you your source.



Orphan I be. Me dad I never knew. Me mum... Dead she is. Many years dead. Street rat am I. Thief, steal, rob. Those were my deeds. For food in me belly and clothes on me back. Understand, please. I had to survive! Twelve I did be when I were caught. A young man he were who found me. Ranson. That were his name. A guard he were. For the Lady."

 

Page_1: "Rasan did see me starved. Filthy. Pity was his kindness. Took me home. Fed me. By the fire I sat all night. Such warmth I had not known before that time. Handsome, he was. Black of hair and green of eye. Loved him would any lass, sure of it am I.



Innocent I be'd. He... took advantage of me. Drowsing by the fire were I when he... touched me! 'Quiet,' says he. 'Do as I say, or kill you I wills. You think they will miss one of your kind.' Please, say you understand. I was lonely. He... The memory pains. Please."



Page_2: "Morning bright did wake us and to him his feet did leap. 'Come,' he commanded. To the lady did we go. And to her did he make plea for my service. I was a guard that very day. Do not judge me by this! I serve or I die. He gave me no choice!



I train, work hard. Learns much. Letters was I taught, and stealth. Watching. Protecting. Did I enjoy? Yes. Guard I was and guard I was happy to stay. Food I did have and much health. And Ranson did I have to fill me where I were lonely. Happy content. That was me."



Page_3: "But a mistake I did make. To patrol the house was my duty and I did see many a time that things were no good. To my captain I did go. And explain I did. But never, never, never did he listen! Angry I grew! Frustrated! 'Tell the lady,' be all he ever did say. To tell her I tried but always were she busy. Unimportant, I was. And so ignored. When to him I went to tell of bad lights, he did shrug and say 'tell the lady.' Hit him I did. Hard. We fought much. Everyone saw. She saw! Bitch! 



Arrested. Both of us. Captain Els was whipped. I... Put in a cage and left to rot. Hunger. Fever. Fear of death. No other memories have I."



Page_4: "The rescue I do not remember. Going on the ship... It was captain Els who did freedom give me. His life was risked for mine. Obliged was the word he used when I asked why.



Time passed. Strength I gained. Guard I was again, for a short time. Then return did we to my homeland. It is revenge we seek. The captain and me. The lady she... She is evil! It is from her I steal my goods and to you they are passed. Though thief I be, I am not a bad person. Wish only to stop the lady do I. 

This is me. This is who I be. Now you know the truth. 



Your servant,  Jyre."
