In a Manhattan Park, a boy was playing and dreaming the heroic dreams of a future pre-ordained. He would live on three continents in his lifetime, changing the destiny of each. He would also be known by three names: William Broderick Simpson III, Cutty, and finally El Uno or Ichiban (The One). He would become immortal within the span of his natural lifetime, crossing continents and connecting cultures with his bravery as none had done before. He would become a hero to five nations, all claiming him as their Native Son. In truth, he was to become the Son of a much higher calling.
