Silah - Hakaar has made me whole. The souls sacrificed to empower me were spent to complete the mission. His ability to strike true; to heal his wounds.
The taste of victory is sweet. Almost bitter sweet. A handful of heartbeats kept my beloved from eternal separation. Had I been too reckless? It had all worked out in the end, but I will not forget the sacrifice I nearly asked of him. His death would have been shared by me to a lesser degree.
I know I will eventually tell Hakaar much of what I now recall, I owe him that much for all he has done for me. I would tell him about the clans, my Father, The Great Bargain. These things and more will be important for him to know and understand as we journey together.
I think perhaps I was happier before. The memories that now inhabit my thoughts weigh heavily on me. See was correct, in that I have been irresponsible. I owed more to my caretaker than to flit about emptying his purse in pursuit of worldly possessions and stolen moments of pleasure. I needed to better prepare him, in doing so prepare myself. My feelings for him have not changed. His adoration has been intoxicating and perhaps I have drunk too deeply from his cup. We will have time now. I don’t know how much. I will be his strength and he mine. Together we will be a force seldom seen. Our deeds will part the lips of bards for all time until the end of memory.
