*Holden sits at the local Inn, brew in hand...he appears to have had just a little over his limit*
"So ye think ye know me, eh? Know why I come to this here place? Well lemme tell ye sumthin! I'dve stayed up North if I could."
*takes a swig of his ale*
"Got me inta a bit of a tussle with a rich bugger merchant, name of Drinn. He weren't too keen on my courtin' his daughter. Sela...ye talk about a beauty now. That gal was blessed by Mielikki herself!"
*his eyes go fuzzy for moment, caught in reverie*
"Anyhows, I done found out my poor Sela had a secret. Her sick bastard of a pappy was doing things no man oughtta be doin' with his daughter."
*grimaces then takes another swallow of his brew*
"I took it upon myself ta git Sela away from that abusin sumbitch. Course he weren't gonna have none of that, ole Drinn. He and me we had a go. And I got the scars ta prove that much."
*roles up a sleeve to show a thick scar running down his left arm*
"Sela...she tried to pull me off'n her pappy. Don't know quite how in hell it happened but...well...she got run through by her own pappy's own blade."
*drains the rest of his brew in one long swallow*
"So I kilt that bastard Drinn. And held my Sela as she passed on. Course everybody thought I kilt'em both and I got branded as a murderin man. So's I had to run. And I been runnin. But I runnin no more."
*slaps another coin on the table*
"Hey Barkeep, gimme n'other! So lemme tell ye friend, this here Cormyr, this is where I stand. If'n them thugs o' Drinn's wanna kill me, then by Mielikki, they're gonna hafta be doin it here!"
