It was a cold winter's day with the sun still low in the sky.

That year the winter was long and hard ,and we knew my father would not see another spring.

I was getting the table ready for the captain's breakfast.

Suddenly, the door of the inn opened and a man stepped inside.

I had never seen him before.

He wore a sailor's short sword by his side,

and I noticed he had only three fingers on his left hand.
