Traell is gone now. I don't know if I'll ever see him again- no, I will. We will meet again, a happy reunion. He changed things here so much - I saw him talking with Sean, who seems to treat me with a bit more respect, and oddly enough, doesn't go around with the other girls nearly as much. I think Sean's starting to think seriously about life.
Me? I'm still working. I keep going from day to day, pushing through this mist to some bright point in the beyond that I'll never understand until I touch it. I suppose some day I will touch it, maybe after I'm old and about to pass away, or maybe just as I die.
I've never had to hurt someone with my sword. I sometimes wonder if I shouldn't give it up. Really, it's done nothing; although it does remind me a little about my father. He was a wonderful person; the only person in the world more wonderful than my brother.
At this point, I'm expecting my life to settle into a routine. If all goes well, I should be making good money in a few years; then maybe I'll get married. I don't know, I think something's missing without all the adventure, and yet all those bad things were certainly not amusing while they were happening to me. Still, it is proof of just what a person can go through and survive.
