Excerpt from Chaney's diaries
Mid Years's Day 3015 TA-Evening
Well I've seen something that you do not often see here on the Alley......
A man with a scar across is left eye, but most notably he walked with a clank. Every time he placed his left foot to the ground it had the sound of metal. Strange...... perhaps he lost it to disease or something. To think he never does look clean anyway. Probably gout or something..........
Later evening-
I have seen that man again, as usual walking with a clank, thud, clank, thud....... he stares, but he never speaks. Strange old soul really. He seems rather mad, eccentric at the very least. Still from what I gather harmless enough unlike some of the folk around here. Just this morning some beggar or brigand tried to swipe my satchel. I gave him a piece of my mind and when I offered one of my blades to his throat he decided not to take my belongings after all.
Still its better than the old camp far off to the east of here. I wonder, wonder how mother is. Why has she not come looking for me. Or why have they not sent some men to find me?.................
