Prequel – Before 007 Since his upbringing in the Scottish fishing village of Oban, there was danger. Even when it was an illusion. James began his life unable to distinguish reality from the internal fantasy that he inherited from his mother, Rowena. She was descended from a warrior princess, Gwen, in ancient Wales. She carried the torch of leadership from that ancient land and all its characteristics to her son, James. It lay dormant in James until his schizophrenia necessitated a revolutionary new scientific treatment known as 'electro convulsive therapy' in Rome in 1938. It cured his personality disorder, and revealed his dormant lightning-fast reflexes and a photographic memory. As an abandoned youth, James was too old for an orphanage, while too young to have the survival skills of an adult. His photographic memory and extraordinary reflexes were found to be valuable assets to a London underworld seeking to collect debts for loan sharks for illegal offtrack betting. It wasn't until the Nazi invasion of Poland that brought England into WW2, that a judge gave the unsavory youth a choice: prison or the service. That relegated James Bond into service into her Royal Majesty's Navy. What ensues is James Bond's initiation into British Intelligence, defending the Kingdom from invaders from all corners, and traitors from within the Royal Family.
