The only other human still alive who had
worn Circe
was George Nelson who had discovered
Circe in a tiny cave on the tiny Meditteranean island
named after her
Circe's Island
That had been 30 years ago,in 1832 when George was ten and
King William IV had made both George and his dad
Bartamus Nelson
the Kings own private agents
to Save the World,Fight the Forces of Evil,defeat mad men
and generally act as
"William the Fourth's Angels "long
after the King had passed on.
There was a secret vault in Zurich Switzerland
that Bartamus had drawn apon to
purchase Circe's Island from some
bankrupt Italian nobleman
and for thirty years
George and Circle had saved folk more times then the World knew.
When three months earlier the Doctor had told George
that his heart was failing and he wouldn't make it
past 1862
George had gone on this final trip to settle
accounts before he returned to Circe's Island to
die.
