Respite - Dreamspeaker - 05-04-2021 ![]() I'm not sure how I ended up here. I've been through a lot. Perhaps a lot more than people could ever imagine. I lost my friends. My loved ones. My body is ravaged with scars... But I always carried on. I wanted to give up so many times. I was tempted to abandon my homeland, to have an easier life. I could've had it much better. But I never turned my back on my people. Did I do the right choice? I can't say that I regret it... ![]() Not when I embrace my family. Not when I still have someone to live for. And I'm not sure who to thank for it. I did a lot of bad things. I did plenty of mistakes. It was a hard road... And I think I'd like to rest now. But I couldn't do it without you. Yes, you. The one who reads it. You were watching me my entire life, weren't you? Protecting me, guiding me. Comforting me, supporting me. There's no way I was supposed to survive this far. To have this ending. It's a miracle. You're a miracle. And I'm thankful for that. ![]() This tale began in Achyon. And it ends there too. I've returned home, free from the duties at last. They'll handle it without me, I'm sure. But even now, I realize there's still so much more to do. So much more to work on. So much more to live for... Is it the end of my book? Or am I going to do something else with my life now? That, dear reader, is another story... Signed,
Marcel Delisle.
The ex-Commander of Achyon.
