Red Kelly
- [first lines]
- Red Kelly: [narrating a written letter] My dear child, I know what it is to be raised on lies and silences. That is why I write to you now. So you do not grow to confuse fiction for fact, and view your father in an unsavory light, as I did mine.
- Red Kelly: You see, your grandfather were a Son of Ireland, a Son of Sieve. Ripped from his home by his English oppressors, and transported to the prisons of Van Dieman's Land, Australia. I do not know what was done to him there, as he never spoke of it, for he were a man who chose to keep secrets from his kin. But I've come to learn secrets shackle one tighter than any chain, and lies fester long after their invention.
- Red Kelly: So as you read this history, my history, know that it is for you, and will contain no single lie. May I burn in hell if I speak false.
