Synopsis:
In his youth, Adeney tutored beneath a reputable doctor, until the man's untimely demise. Adeney continued the practice, though he had no official schooling. He was turned away from every notable institution of medicine. The Hamlet was in great need, and desperate enough to turn a blind eye to malpractice.Full:
Adeney was a studious boy and as soon as he was old enough, his parents sent him away to learn medicine from a highly regarded local doctor. His tutoring was strenuous, his teacher was strict, but he learned to clean and suture wounds, and employ medicine against sickness. He learned too that some maladies were irreparable - sometimes a patient could only be made comfortable until an illness finally claimed them, sometimes a limb would have to be removed to keep a patient alive.
Several years passed in his tutelage, then his teacher was stricken with a plague. There was no remedy or stay from his suffering, so Adeney killed the doctor in his sleep.
Though he was skilled and knowledgeable enough to pursue his own career in doctoring, he was curt and tactless, and could find no institution wherein to practice. Even as a street physician, he had a poor reputation for being unconventional or even ineffective. Hearing rumors of the Darkest Estate, it sounded like a prime opportunity for work, and perhaps even an escape from judgemental ignominy.
