So begins the travels a young girl told only through the letters she leaves behind.

Day 2

Dear Zeno

Our separation did not go as well as I had hoped. You got quite upset, understandably, and said a number of things I know you have—or will at least—come to regret. Please do not fret about it, all is forgiven. I know you will beat yourself up about what happened, but nothing you could have done would have made me stay. No matter how much I wanted to. I am sorry that I made you feel that way, though. I will not put any of the things you brought up in here; maybe by the time you get this you will have already forgotten what was said. It would make me happy to know that you are no longer hurting yourself because of your words. I walked for a long time after I left you, I did not want you to try to come find me. It was rather boring since I passed no one on the roads. I camped out in the trees, it was surprisingly comfortable. I happened across a river about mid-morning and followed it all day today. I saw a few people, but decided against stopping to talk to any of them. Right now I am camping right outside of a small fishing village that lies close to the river. I believe that I will stick close to the river for a while, at least until I figure out where I am. Well, it is getting late so I suppose I will stop here for tonight. Write you tomorrow Zeno, sleep well.

With all my forgiveness,

Yuki
