Prehaps… Its best If I told you what really happened… It was so long ago… Nevertheless, it seemed just yesterday that we were all young and full of life. It was a time, where the world itself, seemed to scream with discoveries and it was only a brave few who took up her challenge. I was one of those, brave few. A few trusted collages, and myself took on that task, and proved ourselves worthy of its treasures.
It was a strenuous task… Surviving day to day, and after a while, our new home and a new way of life, became almost second nature. There were adventures with vengeance filled ghost, long nights of passion and embrace. Days when the whole world seemed to fall apart before our very eyes… Maybe it was just me… However, there was a time, so long ago, that I would have given my soul, to relive those days. Now that I look back on my life, a long and never ending road. It seems that even God himself, in his infinite wisdom, has allowed me to see the results of my tribulations.
When I step back, and remember my dear friends… Challenger…Roxton…Marguerite, and even dear Ned… It seems to flare like a weak and dying ember… Our adventures… Our daily struggles… Came to a new place, with the arrival of a man… Cirrus… He proved to be more than we could handle… However, he turned out to be a great ally, and someone that I could tell my deepest feeling to. Some might call it love… Moreover, maybe it was… But… That was a long time ago, things… People and the world has changed… I have changed… In addition, maybe that 'Change' let to my greatest triumph, and the most heart-wrenching choice of my life…
