Edward Dunglass
Edward's the latest to have made it into the opening credits. He's
the most off-mainstream appearance Summer Bay's ever seen. A hunk of
a Goth ! One's darkest dreams came true !
Edward was presented to the others as sort of landmark by Will trying
to provoke him but Edward stayed calm and supported him in his ambitions
to throw him into the sea ! Mystical words spoken by Edward made the
others vote for Edward as the winner of this "Dark city" encounter
!!! Edward kept on reading his book while the others headed to school.
Black by exterior but bright by interior, Edward brilled in Don's literature
class by reciting tongue-twisting poems making Don speechless and when
he heard his name Don was sort of haunted by the past because of referring
to a known English teacher from the past !!! "Dark city" became
friendly with Duncan in no time and saved him out of the mess of being
harrased by 2 childish hotshots in the bit distant presence of Peta! Accompanied by Duncan, Edward turned up at the caravan park to give
a the newly rebuilt cart a go !! Telling the others being a novice in
the first place Edward transformed himself into a revhead by blasting
all lap records ever held on the Summer Bay circuit !! And on the top
of all he revealed suddenly arrived Judith Ackroyd as his mother. Edward
didn't take long to establish himself as the local tearaway by nicking
Alf's nutshell and talking into Gypsy to join him who refused. Realising
that the tide must have taken Edward with it the local rescue guards
were alarmed to look for Edward and Shauna and Harry finally found it
but nearly crashed afterwards and Edward was rather annoyed being found
since he was admiring the formation of the clouds. Edward has always
had harbouring resentments against Judith's extramarital adventure with
this English guru thus he pretended to believe in Gypsy's evil and ludicrous
rumours but tried to muzzle her when having hindsight! Edward and Peta
became more and more friendly but Peta seemed to become more and more
depressed thus Edward instigated her to grieve properly on a old lady's
grave on the local cemetery to get over the painful loss of her gran
being buried in Poland. Edward managed to convince Peta but both were
caught my the local gossip Colleen and thus Peta broke down an cried
the hell out of her! Both managed to straighten things out but it didn't
take long till Edward was told by Ailse to stay away from Duncan since
Duncan put the idea of wearing of veil of darkness, a black coat just
like Edward.
Edward got himself in many minor or major troubles in early 2000. First
of all he jumped down JUMP ROCK although everybody told him it was highly
perilous since some hotshots dumped a wreck over there and Edward could
have a glance at it when splashing into the sea. Peta did her utmost
to make him back off but failed!! This whole jump thing brought heaps
of tension into their relationship and Edward nearly split up with her
or virtually did in the first place by telling her not to interfere
any longer and to stay away from him in the presence of his mother.
Another minor scandal emerged as Edward let in the weird guys from Yabbie
Creek at the end-of-the term party although his mother expressly told
him not to and the whole thing ended up in a fight since some of them
tried to hit onto Justine... Edward also became unpopular by reading
Don Fishers' book on recently died Byron after having opened Judith's
back up file of it. Edward was convinced that this book was destined
to be accessibly for everyone. Don borrowed a very precious book to
Edward with notes of his died from Huntington father in it but it nearly
landed in the open sea as some fools decided to throw it into to water
and in order to save it Edward splashed into the water himself. The
worst for Peta was Edward's offer to rather throw her into the water
but NOT the book.
Peta managed to persuade Edward to join Shauna's self defence classes
which wasn't a piece of cake at all as Edward reckoned all this would
lead to even more violence and he saw his presumption confirmed as Harry
couldn't bear to be thrown on the floor by Shauna any longer and ”got
back on her”!!
Duncan and Edward's friendship became more and more cordial despite
of the ”age difference” and Ailsa started to detest it even
more as his husband Alf left for Africa. She asked him why he was son
keen on the friendship of someone ”much younger”. Edward's
statement that Alf wasn't exposed to any danger made her blew at Edward's
head. Judith told Edward to give his apologies to Ailsa but he was reluctant
in the first place but seeing Edward evoking Dun's interests for quality
literature like LORD OF THE FLIES made her see that Edward wasn't such
bad company after all. Edward seemed to have became the local counsellor
thus since even Mitch asked him for friendly advice what to do bout
Hayley and her white lies but Edward's advice seemed to have backfired
as for telling her the naked truth...
