My deepest condolences, for whatever they may be worth. History is full of such events, and yet many refuse to learn and thus are doomed to repeat them. I am glad that those wrong hands were not successful in the end, though I know that does not mean there has not been lasting harm.
I am beginning to think there is no retiring from adventuring. I had thought to pursue a decidedly quieter life once all had come to an end, but this world is far too exciting for such a thing to be possible. There will always be something, and perhaps it is the responsibility of those of us who have the power to do something to get involved.
Yeah, well, it was a disaster elsewhere for a while, but it's not really a disaster anymore. You're right, though. There were a lot of scars from that, both visible and not. We're still picking up the pieces.
I kind of don't have a choice but to retire back home. But sometimes my friends get into trouble and I get pulled back in. Can't say no when one of them gets his soul sucked out and two others get married for real, right?
[ this does, of course, beg the question of what happened to the soul and why is a wedding considered an adventure, but that's also the "adventurer's life," isn't it? ]
