A few months after Matthew was born, his parents died in a horrible fire. His deaf uncle, a priest, took him in. He never really told Matthew what happened to his parents. Matthew always amused that his uncle was his real father. Because His uncle was a priest Matthew spent a lot of time at the church and it made a big impact on his life and always stuck with him. He was always quick at making friends and knew everyone when he was small. He got in a lot of trouble when he was little and never learned his lessons. As he got older he was still a problem. He never went after any girls and never showed interest in ever marrying. He spent all his time on focusing whatever stupid project he was working on. When he was finally told that his parents died in a fire and he had been lied to his entire childhood, he overreacted and planned a group to go across the Oregon Trail. Matthew figured that once he got to Oregon he would become a priest like his uncle and continue life there.
