I remember the look in his eyes when he first laid eyes on me-- he was shocked. [Because of course a man with such self-importance would know exactly what he looked like without needing a mirror.] No one knew that the most important family in the town had more than one child.
[Except, perhaps, for those who were present at the birth.]
And I never knew that there were people who looked just like me. Not until one of them came and took Mother away for the crime of being a witch. [Then he gives a shrug.] In a way, yes, faith was a vehicle for his cruelty-- after all, magic is a sin against God.
[And that? That is an audible sneer-- he almost sounded like his twin for a moment. Though he can't help that, with how their voices are.]
