The Fall of the Light

Writings of the Ursari

 

It is late now and i should be sleeping. Tomorrow is a big day because we are going to say hello to the minotauri but i am thinking a lot and i can not sleep. When i leave the bending river and say goodbye to my brothers and sisters i am thinking the road ahead is lonely and dangerous. I am thinking it will be hard to keep walking and i will want to go back. I miss my brothers and sisters and i want to go back someday but i have a new family now and it is easier to keep walking than i think it is before. This is my first writing in my new journal and i am wanting it to be special so i write about my new family.

Leta is my tall sister. When i meet her i am thinking she is a nice pretty lady but really she is a scary warrior! She sneaks around like the wolf and kills people really good. As ursar i usually do the killing but when she is there i just hold them for her. It is good and we kill good together. I am hoping someday when time is bigger we will go hunting together because i am knowing we will bring home the big kill. But i do worry about her because she has other friends that do not tell her everything so i am thinking they are not really her friends. She is thinking she needs them to be happy but i think she has many reasons to be happy without them. She is really smart though and i am thinking she will learn this on her own.

Kerin is my other sister and is shorter than me a little bit. She is the reason i am with my new family because she asks me to go with her to a party many days ago. She does not know me but takes me with her anyways. Now i am very happy that happens. I do not know if i like her at first because she talks down at me a little and takes my magic stick. But then she makes me fly and shows me magic and now i am wanting to be the first ursari wizard like her. I am also thinking that she does not care enough with her magic when she makes fire but leta tells me she makes pockets to protect us. At first i am thinking it is the earth mother that protects me but it is little kerin the whole time! Then she gives me this journal and the magic pen because she is wanting to help me be smart like her. Now i know that it is me that is thinking little of her this whole time. She is always looking after me and i do not know that before. I am happy kerin is my friend.

My best friend of my new family is my tall brother cadmael. He does not give me nice things like my sisters but he helps me whenever i am dying. When the scary bone man kills me he picks me back up. When someone scares me or hits me really good and i am bleeding he makes me better. I try to count how many times he saves me but i run out of fingers. Cadmael is why i am still here. When i am not wanting to kill someone he listens and makes the girls hear me. He makes me brave in facing death and i know that he is always there when i am against the wall and thinking it is hopeless. When we go to the bending river i am wanting to tell the ursari about him so that they will make him honored brother.

As i write this cadmael is awake and burying the dragon people i put up to scare attackers. He says before it does not feel right but i do not listen. He does not want trouble with us so he does this alone at night. Now i am feeling bad because he always listens to me but i do not listen to him. I want to help him and tell him that i am sorry but i am worrying about scaring him so i pretend to sleep now. Tomorrow i will be better brother.

Tomorrow is a big day because we are going to say hello to the minotauri. I am reading and making notes in my cow book every day and i am thinking i will impress them with my strength. I am making plans in my head and i think i am ready. Tomorrow i prove to my friends that i am more than only my axe and that my voice is worth their listening.

This is my longest journal so far i think and my hand is not even hurting! I am thinking i am going to find the person that makes the pen and say thank you someday. Before i am thinking my axe is the best thing to have but now i am thinking it is the pen because i can do a lot more with it. I am excited to use it to fill these pages with the stories of our adventures.

Ok time to sleep now. Goodnight.
