"I'm Dorian. Dorian Rye. I, uh... I run the bakery here in Wylgrove. Not that anyone thought I could manage it, b-but I try my best. The bread's good, at least. I make sure of that. People say I'm... too big. Clumsy. They're not wrong, I suppose. Always knocking things over, breaking stools just by sitting... Father was big too. They hanged him. Sometimes I think they're just waiting for me to... to snap like he did. B-but I wouldn't! I swear I wouldn't..."
