The Bank of England and Rothschild and Sons Automobile Drivers licence Characters Mortal Bede, a monk and scholar who taught me to read and write and think. Mael Muire, my common law wife. She is a fisherwoman, outspoken and loud. Malcolm, who is the smith on my town. He has a knack for creating locksmith-puzzles. Crow, a Vampire hunter. A skilled rider like me and cunning. Ezio, a descendent of Crow. He is a skilled bookbinder and betrothed to an even more skilled pianist. Correcampo, my human servant.

Memories Memory 1 I am a Pictish freeman living near the River Spey, where I tend to my small flock of cattle. Born in 704, I spent my youth learning everything I could and, through luck and circumstances, got to be moderately wealthy. While I detest war, I am an able swordsman, a skill not of my choosing but dictated by necessity.
