About me, Sydney Carton
Hello, my name is Sydney Carton. You may or may not have heard of me. I was like one who died young. All my life might of been so; until I met Charles Darnay. He was a French aristocrat who moved to England, who most strikingly looked just like thyself. I was a defending lawyer who fought for his case when he was tried as a spy. He married a girl whom I most definitely did fancy, her name was Lucy Monet. I turned thy life around and I became and uncle to their beloved daughter. Than Charles went back to France, to save a friend of his who was to be beheaded in the streets of Paris. But Charles' past caught up with him, and he was soon put in prison. For Charles' uncle was a noble who was hated throughout france. He had so much to live for, I knew I couldn't just let him die. So I went to France to save him. I took his place in the prison, because we look alike, and I was to be beheaded. I was in the death row when I met a seamstress whom I comforted in her last days. After she was beheaded, it was my turn. I arrived at the guillotine and when they released the blade, something magical happened. No, I didn't lose my head, I instead sprouted wings and flew off into the sunset, recognized as a saint. Now I am hear to testify my story.
