Dawn Breaks Upon A Heavy Heart
Excerpt from Chaney Oakleaf's Diaries
These may be the last words I write in this book for quite some time, if not maybe forever. If that is the case then so be it.
Long I have sat here now at this little table, gazing out into the darkness. It will soon be dawn and I must not tarry any longer.
I shall write Taala a short note and place my sigil with it. It is the very least I owe her after all she has done for me. I cannot and will not leave her without word.
I see in her every day the way she looks at Eroforth, her whole body language tells me she is in love, although she may not admit it, I can tell.
I cannot allow myself to stay any longer. Only death and sorrow follows me, it has done so all my life. I will not bring this upon such a good friend as her.
I know deep in my heart what I must set out to do, and if it brings about my death then so be it. But I will not forsake my chance at revenge. I will leave before dawn breaks and head out giving Bertnar the chance to visit the one place he loves so much.
I will go and see the horses down at Neyaa’s to say a final goodbye and leave him there. Where I go I cannot take him, for he would surely die. What life would that be for such a beautiful horse. My companion, my Bertnar………….
Goodbye Taala, and thank you for your kindness, your friendship. I will hold it dearly within my heart forever……..
(( She stops writing, the tears welling in her eyes starting to blot the paper she writes upon ))
OOC Note: Unfortunately real life events do not allow me nearly enough time to come in game and portray two characters. Therefore I am placing Chaney’s status as dormant inactive for now. I wish to concentrate on my other character, Tarrah, for whatever time I am able to find in game. Thank you so much to all whom have made the time to RP with me. It has been wonderful. I sincerely hope that in the future I again find the time to do so again. Thanks.
