    You used to live on a small farm in the English countryside as a young girl with your brother, Sam, and your parents, a place you believed you’d be all your life, you couldn’t have been more wrong. As a young girl living in the countryside you were used to long routines of working on the farm and helping your mother with usual housework, although life on the farm seemed quite boring, you really enjoyed it. The beautiful landscape gave you an excuse to do the one thing you loved, painting, especially painting landscapes. You dreamed of being a great artist some day, I dream that your parents thought was way to ambitious for you, all they wanted you to do was get married and have kids. You hated them for that. When you were 21 years old, the town that you lived in got invaded and to your horror, both your parents and brother were found dead. After the tragic incident, you fell into a deep depressed state for a year not being able to cope well with the loss of your family, after that year of thinking you decided to flee England in hopes of getting your mind off the loss. In desperate need to get out of England, you disguised yourself as an British Army nurse and went on your way telling people that you were off to France to help in the war with injured soldiers, and to your surprise, it worked. You finally got to Northern France and were excited to start a new life away from the terrors of living in the English countryside, that was until you found yourself wandering through endless fields of nothingness trying to find a place to stay, you were broke.

    All while you were off wandering through the French countryside, William and Blake were starting their journey to send a message to Colonel Mackenzie. Both Will and Blake were good buddies and had been walking ironically in the same direction as you on their journey. One day as you made your way through tall fields of grass you accidentally came across the pair as they made their journey.
