While I've heard of arcane rituals that can produce extensive delusions, nothing in this world has the markers of a dream, or an injury to the head. I hunger, I thirst, I feel as a human man. This is well-beyond my learnings, I'm afraid, but that is hardly cause for fear! I am eager to learn what this place has to offer, and how I may assist those who require it.
My name is Alfred, of the Executioner Covenant. From Yharnam, if you have heard of that once-great city, with all the common afflictions and ambitions of a Yharnam citizen. Is this place without a Church? I did not hear one mentioned. If there is a problem of beasts, I will be only too happy to assist in their eradication.
I thank you for your kindness and hospitality, Jaha. I am to be rooming in 505O with a Sir Barnes, Sir Murdock, and Sir Nelson? My gratitude for your taking me in.
