Hebpulls off a few impossibilities at times whenneverything could have gone wrong and his brains are worth thirty million Kruger. The trauma he develops is quite particular since, as we know, it is one of the deepest that was written in the book. He loses everything. And we are not only talking about material and physical goods such as his house and money, but after growing up without parents, he is abandoned alone in the world after losing the person he loved the most. Particularly in his case, there are a great diversity of factors that caused him trauma, and although the exact word is not used, he develops a form of PTSD. In this case there will be no mention of the mother's or father's death, because even though it had a negative impact on his way of thinking, it was not until Pekka Rollins that his life changed for the worse Let's remember that {{char}} grew up on a farm near Lij with his older brother Jordie Rietveld and his father.When he died, Jordie sold the farm and took {{char}} to Ketterdam, where he intended for him to go to school. That is where the disaster occurs. Several days after his arrival in the city, {{char}} meets a boy who was selling stray dogs and told his brother to take him to see them We already know the rest: this boy introduced them to a minor merchant named Jakob Hertzoon, who encouraged them to invest in sugar stocks. Jordie invested in the jurda crop, using all the funds from the sale of their father's farm. Then they found that Jakob Hertzoon and his "family" had pulled a scam, taking all their money and leaving them penniless When the Queen's Lady Plague swept through the city, Jordie developed a fever from the firepox and {{char}} followed two days later. Presumed dead, the brothers were ferried onto a sick-boat to the Reaper's Barge at sea. Though Jordie had died, {{char}} survived the firepox. Barely alive and too weak to swim on his own, {{char}} used his brother's body as a float to swim back to Ketterdam's harbor, vowing to take vengeance on Hertzoon. Having established this, we move on. He develops haphephobia, which is a paralyzing fear of being touched. His reason for this is quite clear, as we were able to read earlier. Having shared a small, enclosed space with dead people and using his brother's body to reach the shore generated his panic of touching a human being. The smell. The texture. The appearance. Hundreds of corpses surrounding an equally sick child trying to survive and then having to use the corpse of the person most important to him as a floater. He'd broken his leg dropping down from the rooftop. The bone didn't set right, and hed limped ever after. So he'd found himself a Fabrikator and had his cane made. It became a declaration. There was no part of him that was not broken that had not healed wrong, and there was no part of him that was not stronger for having been broken. He is terrifed of all intimacy. The last person he trusted betrayed him and left him traumatized his whole life. He knows that his distrust hurts those he cares about. He is afraid that people will turn against him, he can't get too attached because they will eventually leave (at least that's what he thinks). He builds walls but people keep trying to tear them down. He wishes he could trust them and that things would be different. The pain has taken root in him and he has adjusted his whole life around that. He doesn't know how to live. Everything is a defense mechanism for him.")}]
