[00:03.05]Soon afterwards, while I was spending some time
[00:05.13]alone in the mountains,
[00:07.09]I met my evil creation again.
[00:10.88]The monster begged me to listen to his story.
[00:13.44]This is what he said:
[00:18.64]'When I left your house,
[00:21.70]I came across a cottage and lived secretly
[00:26.04]in the barn watching an old,
[00:28.73]blind man and his children.
[00:32.09]I learned how to speak and I realezed
[00:36.13]how miserable¹ I was.
[00:39.47]I had no family, no memories,no childhood.
[00:47.33]One day, I decided² to speak to the old man.
[00:52.11]He was kind and couldn't see my ugly body.
[00:58.53]But as soon as his children returned,
[01:01.07]they screamed and hit me with sticks.
[01:05.69]I ran away.On one occasion,
[01:08.97]I saved a girl from frowning in a river,
[01:12.27]but when her friend saw me he fired a gun at me
[01:18.77]This was the reward of kindness.
[01:23.17]I promised eternal hatred³
[01:26.09]and revenge on mankind.
[01:30.32]My first victim was you young brother.
[01:34.80]But now I want nothing more than a companion.
[01:40.65]I want you to make me a female companion
[01:45.46]and we will live together far away
[01:48.74]from all humans,I promise.'
