: No, I meant that Durandal was telling his story PRE rampancy. How he was a
: slave.

Possible, but why would he pick a specific name? Why THAT name? Out of all the narrative positions available to him, why choose one where he is compelled to give himself a name?

He could have used first person and identified himself as "I."

Second person "you."

Or even in the third person he could have used "The Man," but instead he identifies himself as "Gerrit White."
