The past is of little consequence to my duties here. While I am sure that, where you come from, people are only too willing to divulge their life histories at a moment's notice, I feel no great compulsion to relate my own to a complete stranger.

Especially when that very past may grant you need to judge me.

You speak of my name, say it has meaning and then hide your words in shadow... 'Tis a most curious thing.
