His parents had chosen his name before he was even born. That proved his birth parents loved him, that he had been an eagerly awaited child.
So why, then, did he end up at the General's Mansion? Why was he called a fatherless, motherless bastard?
Before he was thrown out, the true young master of the General's Mansion had told him arrogantly,
"You're just a bastard from god-knows-where, a stray no one wants. If my family hadn't given you something to eat, you would've starved to death in a ditch somewhere long ago."
"You're just my stand-in. The only reason you enjoyed a few good years is because of me, so you should be grateful. Soon, the entire General's Mansion will be mine. I'll reach heights you could never dream of, while you? You're only fit to be trampled under my heel and left to rot in the mud."
Of course, he wasn't one to take that lying down.
