Well another restless night, I feel into a dreamless sleep but it wasn't long as the moon had yet to reach it's peak in the sky. Looking across camp I saw some men sleeping and others silently roaming with their bows out and watching over the grounds. 'Cassie'. I heard a voice in the depths of my mind. Father? I looked around, logically I knew he was not here. But the dead tend to haunt your, heart, soul and mind. Part of me felt guilty, for seeing these folk as my family now. Is it such a sin to be happy? Even for a moment. Am I such a child still? That I cannot see the world for what it is.
I looked over at Aeru who for once seemed to actually be sleeping; I was the one awake this time. But would he love a child? I then looked back up to the heavens that were marred with stars; two people that are always at war with none other than themselves. Our own most vicious enemy, is the one we both see in the mirror. I fear these thoughts will never be spoken; even if I wanted them to be. Some things are just better left unsaid; I think the only thing that would ever change either of us is time. Mother she told me that I had a sibling, a brother no less. Older, what else wasn't I told? Why are these things suddenly flooding my mind again? This has nothing to do with where I am now. I rubbed my forehead and slowly sat up, here I am conflicted again and with words left unsaid.
