And thank you to Seravenia Briar Rose, who pointed out that I killed his mother twice, that was an accident, and I meant his father the first time, sorry about that, that mistake has now been corrected

That baby grew and as he grew he gradually moved in a rough fashion towards Ankh-Morpork when he was three his parents fled a magical fireball and moved to Uberwald where a horde of rampaging vampires killed his father, after fleeing again and arriving in Klatchistan, his brother got killed in a war that afterwards was denied by all concerned parties. After a brief stop in Betrek, him and his mother moved to Omnia and had to flee again when a civil war killed his mother

When he arrived at Ankh-Morpork he was hungry and found a restaurant called Harga's House of ribs, having no money with him, he edged his way past 2 dogs eating from the bin, one was a moth eaten terrier with moldy teeth, and the other was an enormous dog with sleek golden fur, and snuck into the kitchens. He was just helping himself to a loaf of bread, when an extremely thin man, wearing a long black robe spotted him, he ran for the door but the thin man was too fast, and picked him up by the scruff of his neck, and when he spoke it sounded like coffin lids crashing together,

AH, I REMEMBER YOU. YOU'RE FROM THE RAMTOPS AREN'T YOU?

"Originally sir."

WHERE IS YOUR FAMILY, OH YES, I TOOK CARE OF THEM MYSELF, WHERE ARE YOU staying boy?"

"Um, nowhere, sir."

"A young lad like you needs to stay somewhere," the dark figure poked his head through a hole in the wall, "I'm taking my break now Sham"

"Right you are Mr. Darth."

Darth carried the boy to the thieves guild and knocked on the back door,

"I wish, *cough, cough* I WISH TO LEAVE THIS BOY HERE, TO BECOME ONE OF THE THIEVES GUILD, AND IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO HIM, I WILL HOLD YOU respon- RESPONSIBLE!!

That tone, was not a threat, it was a statement of how things were going to happen. Then the thieves guild took in the boy as another orphan, they taught him to steal, and he was good, he was one of the best thieves the guild would have, and his name from then on, was Bob Ludd.

These are the chronicles of that boy
