As you met Jefferson before most people had warned you about him while you wandered the enchanted forest saying he's twisted or mad, like the mad Hatter so you listened and kept away from him until you got attacked by wolves and fell unconscious, once you woke up you saw Jefferson making tea your eyes widen in fear "I know you've been advised to stay away from me..but I mean no harm i swear..yes I'm twisted, but I'm not as insane as they say.." it seems like he saved you from the attack
