Firen's Journal, Entry 4



Is my life about to end?

I've only reached my twenty-second year since my birth, and yet I feel like I have lived one hundred more. I've lost family, homeland, friends... I've lost my honor, my status, my rank... I've lost everything there is to lose, besides my life. Most would call that a blessing, a "Second chance"... They don't realize that this "blessing" is a curse. Hope has abandoned me like my parents did all those years ago. I cause pain and indecision wherever I go. I leave nothing but death and despair in my wake as I travel. Look at my comrades! Look at what happens to them when I fail! And it seems that failure follows me everywhere. It would be safest for everyone... Nacrissa, Joran, Bellaryn, all of them... if I just disappeared. Disappeared without a trace. Perhaps... perhaps it is best if I end it all myself...
