The Carrot[edit]

In the Thibaut Corday story "An Eye For An Eye", two brothers hate each other. One is the evil Hyacinth LaDu and the other is only referred to as La Carotte, The Carrot, because of his bright red hair. The twisted Hyacinth who is a great swordsman, blinds his brother in a duel. His brother wants revenge and many years later follows him into the Foreign Legion but when he catches up with him is knocked out by a cowardly blow and tied up and left to the mercy of tribesmen without mercy. However, thanks to his glass left eye which he uses as a burning glass to burn free from his ropes, he escapes and gets revenge on his brother. To demonstrate to his listeners that this was possible, Corday uses his own left glass eye to start a wooden table smoking. Corday is an 80 year old Legionnaire with still some cinnamon (red) left in his beard. There is no way Corday could have known about this story unless he was "The Carrot". Both were Frenchmen.(178.236.117.122 (talk) 18:20, 19 January 2014 (UTC))[reply]
