Mr.and Mrs.Richmond live a lavish life in London. Their Chicken trading business has earned them a huge amount of wealth. They had all the money in the world to spend on luxurious mansions, extravagant clothes and a house full of servants, but despite their incredible wealth, not one coin was ever spent on anything but for their personal affairs. 

One night, Mr.Richmond took the carriage to a small pub known as The Harlot House. Once a week he'd pay one of those delightful girls to suck is cock, and come home telling his wife he had a business meeting. He did not try very hard to cover up his tracks. He barely even tried at all. One night he came home drunk, messy haired, without pants and told his wife the same excuse, but that didn't matter at all. The Richmonds were a very promiscuous couple, rarely showing any fidelity in their marriage.

On that night, Mr.Richmond was introduced to Sasha, who came highly recommended by the other patrons. However, he was not satisfied with the whore who sat on his lap. According to him, "There was no magic.", so he refused to pay for her service. Sasha was enraged, never in her life had she received any negative criticism from a man as arrogant as him, and little did Mr.Richmond know that Sasha was a witch who reveled in the dark arts She pointed a crooked finger at him and said in two voices; one of the devil's and one of her own: "Heed this warning you rich fool. Tomorrow morning a man will come to your house asking for work as a servant. If you do not accept him, all hell will be released upon you, your house, and your family."

Mr.Richmond claimed that he did not believe in that whore's lies, but deep inside, he was very superstitious.

The following morning, Mr.Richmond discussed what happened the night before with his wife. "Well, we have to accept him in our home. What choice do we have?" said Mr.Richmond. "Honestly, Stephen do you actually believe in that woman's lies. There is no way I would ever give in to the demands of a woman who you paid to service your loins." Mr.Richmond who was still very afraid of the curse said: "She just wants us to hire someone as a servant. It can't be that much of a hard task to bear." 

However, before they could discuss any further, there was knock on the door. One of the maids reached for the door but Mr.Richmond said he will open it himself. True to the witch's word, a middle aged man with a tattered uniform appeared in front of the house.  He looked weak and very hungry. He said wearily: "Good Morning sir, I know this is too much to ask, but I would love to apply for a job at your fine estate." Immediately, without hesitation Mr.Richmond said: "Of course, please do come in, sit down, I'll tell the maids to get you some tea." The servant was surprised, not a lot of people would accept any random gentleman asking for a job on the street. 

After a couple sips of tea, the servant sat down with Mr. and Mrs. Richmond. Mrs.Richmond was not happy with her husband inviting a complete stranger asking for a job to their own home. 

"So, mister.., um what is your name?"

"Cyrus, Cyrus Lockwood."

"Right, Mr.Lockwood what are experiences that may benefit this house hold?"

"Well, I've been a servant for my previous employers, Mr.and Mrs.Smythe for over 20 years. I cooked, cleaned, and drove them around. I also took care of their twin daughters, who grew up into beautiful women with fine husbands. I have also acted as their bodyguard for a time, after all, I did have some training in hand-to-hand combat during my time serving in the army, and that is all the notable experiences I have to share with two of you."

"Excellent, you're hired!" said Mr.Richmond

"Hold on" said Mrs.Richmond. "Why did you have to leave thre care of your previous employer?"

"Well, I don't know madam. It's still a big mystery for me until now. They said I have a mad deer and I was losing my reading ability, but I have no idea what they were saying. I never associated myself with any deer and I can read very well."
