Triet, Day One.

We've arrived in Triet. The oasis in the desert.

I've already caused trouble, falling through a wall in the market place.

Reminds me of school. But the thought of school reminds me of home, and the thought of home reminds me what I'm doing.

I put on a happy face for Raine and Kratos.

Kratos is a great warrior. I guess that's why he's a mercenary.

Wow, I just realized the irony in that. He's protecting me so I can die.

But he's a good person from what I've seen so far. A little cold. Maybe even too professional. But a good person. He's smart. I've noticed this already. I'm guessing he's older than he appears. Not many people could have his kind of experience.

Him and Raine guided me here. We're only staying for an hour or so, then heading to the first seal. I'm scared and thrilled all at the same time. I get to see my father again. I hope he's as happy to see me.

My father. I know I should trust him. He's an angel. He won't lie to me. But yet, I get a strange feeling about him. I don't know what it is. Maybe I'll find out.

I have this horrible feeling though. Like something isn't right. I told Raine about it and she said it's just my nerves. Does she really think I'm that dumb? Sure I act like a klutz, but… Goddess, I just want to know what's wrong with me today.

Maybe I'm just going crazy.

Raine gave me homework. Why she even bothers I don't know. It's not like learning anything will matter. I might as well do something to keep my mind of the future. Maybe that's why she's still teaching me.

She looked up from her paper then quickly scribbled down the last few lines.

Raines calling. We're heading to the seal. Lets hope I'm strong enough.
