A Bastard at the Castle Gates

The six-year-old boy stood bewildered at Buckkeep Castle's gates as his grandfather declared, "He's Prince Chivalry's bastard, fed at my table for six years with never a word or coin from his father." With those harsh words, the child was abandoned to a new life that would shape his destiny. Delivered to Burrich, the Prince's stableman, the boy's unmistakable Farseer features confirmed his royal blood-and created immediate political turmoil. Prince Chivalry, heir to the Six Duchies throne and renowned for his honor, had produced a bastard while his wife Patience remained childless. Without ever meeting his son, Chivalry abdicated his claim to the throne and retreated to a distant estate-a gentle exile for a man who would have been King. Housed in the stables under Burrich's stern care, the nameless boy discovered an innate ability to mentally connect with animals-a magic called the Wit that was considered unnatural and dangerous. When Burrich discovered this bond, he separated the boy from his beloved puppy Nosy, believing the magic would make him "less than human." The separation left the child feeling as if part of himself had been torn away. For years, the boy lived as a shadow in the stables, occasionally sneaking into Buckkeep Town to meet his few friends-including a girl called Molly who stood up to bullies despite her own troubles. These brief moments of freedom were his only escape from the loneliness of being unwanted and unnamed.
