Interview # 2 - The Jackal

Near Port Selao

Today, I interviewed the Jackal for over an hour. We covered a lot of ground, but I started with a basic question. I asked him his real name – surely no one’s christened The Jackal! But he was expectedly elusive, “What’s in a name?” I pointed out that the name ‘Jackal’ has elicited fear in civilians and mercenaries alike. So clearly there’s something in his chosen name. And to that, he said, “I didn’t choose anything. You can call me what you want. Call me dead, I don’t give a s**t. They fear the man, not the name.”

Just a sampling. A lot of good material today. Next interview is scheduled for the 24th.

Interesting. If "The Jackal" isn't a name he choose for himself, then how did he come to be known as such?
Though I wonder if he might be lying. The whole thing might have been his idea.
