A/N Sorry this took so long, I've really been bogged down by some real world issues but fear not! Henri and Svens journeys continue!
Year XXXX October 3
*a bit of ink is splattered across the first few paragraphs obscuring a few letters but overall it's legible and the calligraphy seems to have changed after the afflicted section.*
Oh dear. They are making one of those structures that I've seen mated pairs enter. I have no doubts who will be entering but I don't feel ready. Mel brought back some kind of plant whose extract helped with my headaches and they've been absent for a few days now so I wonder if somehow the pain was making it impractical for her to try and make a child with me. The prospect is daunting; she is so much larger and stronger than I am, than any human could ever hope be. If I am unable to complete this energy requirement, I fear what will happen.
I suppose I have little choice but to try what Theo suggested and visualize emotions as a color and try and put that COLOR outside my body to see if it works. If not, i have to wonder how long we will be in there, trying to make it work before we leave. Somehow it does work I've seen hybrids as proof that the method of reproducing Sven told me about wor-

Yep! Henri's a bit busy now so I get to write again! Been so long I almost forgot how I hold this little feather thing. I like Otherworld better it had little sticks that held ink so it didn't get all over you.
Yah so Mel'lank dragged Henri into the little hut we all made and his stuff got scattered except for a diamond that Mel took with her. Riley helped me put everything back in my friends little bag since her hands are smaller and Uvvi's wolf helped us fine every last thing of Henris' that was scattered.
Rileys taken a lot of the wool Henri had and is doing something with it and some brushes she has for his hair to make it all fluffy and soft. Says that human-Enderkids have a hard time staying warm so she was gonna make a blanket or something.
I guess she would know she is a mixed Ender.
We passed by another clan today. Well not really PASSED we could smell their passing on the wind but they couldn't smell us. They had blood on their scent human blood and Dad led us away downwind so Henri wouldn't be put in danger. Henri can't get away from troubles, he has to stick around and deal with it since he can't step into another world to escape.
Speaking of Otherworlds Unkle said he was gonna take me Endermite hunting. Him, dad and all the others are gonna go to that place where the parasity things live and exterminate them! This is good, they're itchy if they get in your skin and they hurt when they bite. If we can get rid of them all then things will be better.
Theo's looking at me funny says I'm not writing right. He wants to teach me things called grammar and punctuation because I'm not doing it all right. Just putting the letters in the right order is hard and writing so small makes my hand hurt. Humans say the same world several times but write it different ways, and it means a different thing each time, it's confusing! I don't want to learn new things when the old things are still hard. How can they even write. Can't they talk and remember like us?
