So the way I remember this (happened a few days ago) the man says he's a deserter that took up with a bunch of refugees. These refugees turned out to be huge Patriots he says and when he made the mistake of telling them he was a deserter he found out the hard way that they were Patriots by the face that they tied him up and left him for dead. They meant him extraordinary harm at the hands of (drowners) that rip a man to shreds and eat him living rather than just killing him. I thus set him free, they wanted him dead they could bring him to the hanging tree like everyone else. He made the mistake of telling them he fled from a losing war or at least he panicked and left. This happens nowadays and you don't get tied up and left in the wild they send you home with bad marks and shame. He thus takes his revenge( over zealously. I'm not ashamed.
