okay so we have this much:

1- it's not your first born child but it's close, thus it's either your first something (maybe love) or someone else's first child, or a child that is not your first. maybe your first godchild.

2- they're not dead since you told andy he went morbid.

3- someone who influenced you to make sheaths can't be all that young to do that, unless it was some kid who got into your knives/guns and hurt him/herself.

3- it's not your dead father so it could be either your living father or a father figure. they may be gone, either permanently or temporarily, possibly someone who left for the service or law enforcement and would have need of a sheath for a knife and a holster for a pistol.

4- the name azrael. maybe some kind of role play. someone who dealt out some vengeance? someone who stood up for you? someone with a temper? maybe a soldier who took a few lives?

this all might add up to an older brother, possibly first born.

once again, if it wasn't 5am or if i had gotten some sleep, i know i'd be all over this one.

andy was right on track till he went morbid which really could just mean he shoulda stopped before creating a detail which creates a new character who doesn't exist, the dead child.

it would really blow if the answer is just 'one of your kids' and andy woulda been right if he just stopped before he said the kid died. if that's the answer and i win, he can have my sheath.

i badly need sleep. goodnight gentlemen.
