Doctor Winston von Spangler and his famed knight bodyguard, Charlie Gretchin, are two mysterious figures with a past, to many, fogged by mystery and lies.
The Illustrious Doctor Winston von Spangler, A stone cold, solemn fellow graduated second in his class from medical school. At age 27, he married himself politically to Annabelle Gretchin, a shy, serious girl with an extreme work ethic. Their marriage, though neither really loved eachother, worked fairly well for both. After all, due to women's lack of place in politics, Annabelle could use Spangler as a microphone for her ideals of equality and fairness. Though coming off as harsh, she truly thought she believed in the correct ideas. Spangler, on the other hand, had his first taste of power. He discovered that in this world, he could make as much a difference as he wanted. He evenutally grew to believe Annabelle was a genius, of the highest extent. In which case he had actually grown to love her. Ironically, she had very little feeling towards him, seeing him much more of a business partner than really anything else. Winston still felt he was the luckiest man alive, and was almost reborn to a happier self. He began constantly joking, grinning, and had grown to love the world in which he lived in. Every detail of nearly every thing of life caught his interest. He studied these things often, and with it came great knowledge which he took great joy in sharing with those around him.
Three years after their marriage, Annabelle grew ill. Her symptoms were harsh, as she began bleeding from her eye sockets, coughing up blood, vomiting blood, and grew very pale. She could not eat, as her body simply could not swallow anything. Spangler stood by her day and night, trying many different methods to heal her. None of which worked. At age 30, the sam age as Winston, Annabelle passed away, due to blood loss. This day turned over the lives of both Spangler, and Charles Gretchin, her brother, who Spangler had become good friends with. As Charles told Winston not to blame himself, though he did. Spangler then isolated himself in a far away cabin, very far off from any civilization. He left much of his money behind, and had large amounts of supplies delivered to him every week.
Years later, Charles Gretchin had finally been released from his work as a royal guard. He went to visit his brother in law, only to find him a disgusting wreck. The house was a mess, blood was everywhere, and Spangler was yelling to himself amongst the midst. Quickly, Spangler had turned to Charles. He spoke softly, tearfully. "Something has to be done." The two had disappeared from their homeland, and are now believed to travel around as nomads, or to have perished.
