Hey. My name is Cameran Elizabeth. Elizabeth is technically my middle name, but I don't really have a last name anymore. I guess I should probably tell you the background of my screwed up childhood.
When I was a baby, my mother, Elizabeth Cameran Dillow (my mother must not have been very creative), poisoned herself. My aunt Karen was going to stop by, so she left me in my crib with a note. She was found in the bathroom dead. Aunt Karen never liked kids, so she completely ignored my mother's wishes (which were clearly stated in the note) and put me up for adoption.
I should have had my father's last name. This is where it gets more interesting and complicated. The note my mother left with me, I still have it. I keep it with me all of the time. It's all I have of her. If I didn't have it, I wouldn't know who my dad truly is. The letter reads:
To my dearest sister Karen,
Please take care of my daughter yourself. Her name is Cameran Elizabeth. I would like for her to take on your last name so she has one. I want to know that she is safe. You deserve to know at least who her father is, though. Remember that British man, Severus Snape, who was friends with Marcus? We went out a couple times and that led to Cameran. You and everyone else are going to think I'm crazy as a bat, but he's a wizard. That means that Cameran is a witch. When she is eleven she will receive a letter from a school called Hogwart's School of Witchcraft & Wizardry. I trust that you will care for her to your best ability. I'm sorry I'm leaving this way, but it's for her sake. I'm no fit parent. Please understand.
Love ALWAYS,
Elizabeth
Before aunt Karen gave me up, she found Severus. She had to travel out of Hollywood, California to England. He hated me from the beginning probably. He told her he wanted nothing to do with me. To "bugger of" as the British say it. Aunt Karen didn't even bother bringing me back to the U.S. She left me at a place called "St. Anthony's Home for Orphans" and left. I never allowed them to call me a "Dillow". That's just not me. Until I find it, I'll be Cameran Elizabeth. That's it. No more.
