Timothy Earl's Black Hat
He was the toughest opponent I ever had to face. If there is only one fighting genius in this whole universe, I was the one who killed him.
Agents of the secret cross-Domain secret agency dedicated to hunt down the 26 are still called Black Hats to this day even though they don't wear hats anymore. This is in honour to the greatest figure of them, the man who managed to best one of their targets before meeting his demise. Ironically, his very own hat is being kept as a trophy by his killer, Tur.
Unspoken hero
The name of Timothy Earl doesn't ring any bell, especially millennia after his passing. Even the group named after his most striking feature fail to remember his name, or even what were his deeds. Even the attempts of Tur to create a legacy worthy of him proved unsuccessful in front of the merciless passing of time. His name is only remembered by some of the 26, especially his final adversary that refuses to let him die twice.
A valued trophy
Out of everything, you took the hat? You sure don't mind hurting her feelings.
I don't like it either. It reminds me our own mortality, that even we can meet our end.
You know, I used to have one like that, back then. A felt, that looked a lot like this one actually.
Brilliant article, I enjoyed the amusing quotes and the story behind this hat.
