Why did it happen to me? Why did I have to have a bloody father like mine? Why couldn't I just lived a normal life? Amongst these questions, after all these years, I've found no answers. Why did I have to live a dark and sorrowful life? Why my brother did get captured instead of me? Still, no answer to any of those questions, almost as if my life is a shadow, one of destiny, forced to shape my path as Destiny bids him to.
My name is Brookin Crepsley and I am a bastard. I cannot describe myself as you would wish to imagine me for those who do not either remember my looks or know me, I shall say what I know of my appearance. I have pale, light blue eyes, a very unusual shade some people said and for that I often got nicknamed 'Blue' for my blue eyes. I am dark-haired with a short beard covering my chin and cheeks. As far as I'm aware of, I'm a bulky and strong, you could say I was well-built for battle but that path is not for me, too sorrowful as I found out the hard way… Across my body, there are a large number of scars, wounds and 'souvenirs' from the past, if you looked at my legs, my arms, my back and chest you would find quite a lot…
I was poor as a child, not by birth though. I had a father but… He was an assassin, an evil man who cared only about his money, when my mother gave birth to both me and my twin brother, Brockin. My mother died giving birth to the both of us, I guess my father loved my mother deeply, he disowned us as babies leaving us only our names. As a lads, me and my 'older' brother grew up in poverty, crime, mischief and danger, when I say 'older' brother, I of course mean Brockin but he acts as my older brother, he looks out for me, takes my punishment, makes me cheerful and merry when I'm sad, calms me down when I'm angry, he's the best brother anyone could ever have. But let me continue now, I promised myself that I shouldn't tell anyone of my life but I just can't, I mean there are so many friends, so many people, so many of my own kind that I lied to… Why more lies? Why more secrets? I can at least tell some members of Fullbridge can't I? But writing down all this is often easier than speech for me. Anyway, I'll start at the beginning…
