The Murderous Villain Rosco Pitt

Rare it is to find the words of a man such as this. A man who turned his back on this world and found solace in the empty whispers of granite and stone beneath the unrelenting wind that is life.
The words you are about to read are the words of the man himself. He crossed the land at a time when laws were for the weak and borders knew no bounds.
His sirens were the coyote, the wolf and the buzzard; his cohorts were the ghosts of his past, who beckoned his dreams and tortured his soul. He was one of thousands, lost and forever wandering. He was destined to be faceless, nameless and unknown. Then he came down from that mountain and became a legend.
This is his story...
