I have been many things to many people.
A soldier. A linguist. A ghost.
Born in Puerto Toro, at the edge of the Amazon,
where the river decides whether you live or disappear.
Raised in Königsberg, where the cold teaches you
that history is not the past — it is the ground beneath your feet.
I served with the French Foreign Legion.
I worked in signals intelligence.
I learned that every transmission contains two messages —
the one that is sent, and the one that is hidden.
I speak what the dead spoke.
Medieval Latin. Aramaic. Sumerian. Caló.
