I haven't the slightest of ideas why I was told for my entire childhood that I was your son but denied any heritage or legitimacy. I know only that I was not to blame.
I am merely a bastard child of the great Benny and Jane Bates, without any family save that of my own making.
Rest well father who didn't want me.
