    Summary

    I suppose I should tell of the man who brought me here. He’s about as big as a grizzly bear and just as strong as one. His skin is the color of limestone mountains, and he bears these red marks like a warrior from a distant land. I can’t convey just how terrifying he really is, how his infernal glare burns my soul, and how I tremble when he speaks with a voice like rolling thunder that ain't exactly human. I feel he could kill me at any moment, yet he’s the only reason I’m still alive.

    He found me and brought me here after I was left to die. I don’t know why he would spare me, and he’s not given me much insight as to how he cured me of my illness. He insists I rest up here, and he left no room for argument, to say the least.

    I should have been dead by now. God knows folk would be better off for it, but this stranger seems to think my life is worth saving. He has some knowledge I have yet to grasp, but I’m left pondering how wise he is for keeping a bastard like me around. I guess I’d like to know what reason he has to show mercy to a damned outlaw.
