Fox's Glade i was born a fighter;

there was mention of being lucky that taleigha taught him about medicines and other flora. was he? in truth, the blackshark thought that luck had nothing to do with it. it was what taleigha was good at and though he and his doe-eyed mother couldn't be more different it was a bonding point for them. for better or for worse, brisbane had more of his father in him then he realized ( having only ever had contact with the witchdoctor and lieu of arturo ). i learned to help her, and to patch up warwick and karratha on the sly when the trio didn't want to worry her. and because she genuinely enjoyed teaching me about it. brisbane explains though he doesn't have to.

there's a moment of awkward silence that follows baelfire's admittance that he was a disappointment to his own mother and a general lack of knowing what to say in response. if it makes you feel any better, i'm a massive disappointment to my dad. but that'd stopped bothering brisbane a long time ago. in all fairness, the witchdoctor was a massive disappointment to brisbane; so it was mutual.

yeah, i am. and given that he still feels the reluctance as subjugating him to someone else's rule he isn't so sure that's going to change any time soon.
