Awesome
Kept me reading the entire time. A story reflecting the often calloused brutalities put on those that are different from the majority. Although the setting was over two hundred years ago, this evil spirit of prejudiced still lurks. Even now being so far removed from those days man still deals so harshly with his brother.
