Chapter 13
When the winter steadily arrives, the monster realises that the people seem unhappy. Especially, Felix, one of the people living in the hovel. One day, a woman named Safie arrives, speaking a different language and dressed all in black. She moves in to live with them. After that, the mood of the people brightens up. As she learns their language, so does the monster. He even learns how to read through a book called Ruin of Empress, that Felix reads. Through the process of Safie being educated, the monster learns a bit of world history. By listening to their conversations, he starts to understand the society of humans. He realises that he is deformed and feels lonely and disowned by humans. His feelings of loneliness deepen after he learns relations between humans as well as things they like and have to do.
Chapter 14
The monster briefly understands the history of these people: the old man used to be a successful citizen of Paris and his children were educated. Safie's father however, was accused of murder and sentenced to death, they believe falsely. Felix met the Safie after this event and fell in love with her. She, a turkish woman was very happy to marry a European in order to escape a return to Turkey, where she would face slave-like conditions. Felix helps her father escape, as they both believe they he was innocent. Felix is caught and tried. The verdict was to exile him, as well as the old an and the woman for apparent participation and they are fined virtually all their wealth. The man who escaped flees back to Turkey, telling his daughter to do the same thing. However, she has a bit of money and uses it to come to Felix. The monster also shows letters sent from Safie to Felix, that he copied, to proof that what he is saying is true. In the letter, it also states that the reason her and her father left turkey was because her mother was enslaved, for covering to Christianity, but Safie's father was a muslim.
