Vocabulary 106-135

In an antediluvian town call Peladclees, there was a man named Thaedeus, who was known to be a ruthless desperado of his time. Antebellum Peldclees was renown for its bonanza of gold. Only a score of people were wealthy enough to make a living from the area, forcing the poorer people to resemble atavism to survive on the streets. Thaedeus, although an outlaw, sometimes gave his auguries to paying people. Saying that in 4 generations something good or bad will happen to their family, his predictions were so vague he was never wrong, therefore a reliable source. But his epoch was ephemeral, since he was later forced to join a flotilla which he ran away from, forever to be labeled a renegade by everyone. He was soon given the death sentence for abandoning his position in the war efforts.
