Baseborn and Fowlingpiece

Endy Posts: 278 1/30/2014	So I was out and about where I shouldn't have been and it struck me that there was more to these Lawyers' names than met the eye. A Fowling Piece being a gun used to hunt fowl with and Base Born describing an illegitimate child. Not really sure what to make of this and if there is any greater meaning. Just one of those things that pops into ones head when they are skulking in dark corners. edited by Endy on 1/30/2014 -- sonantem aeternum ad terram Through the darker shadows.
