My dearest Teal,

I hope my letter finds you well.

I wanted to apologize for leaving so suddenly without more than a letter of goodbye what now seems like a lifetime ago. I was afraid that if I didn’t go then, I would lose the courage to do so at all and I very much needed to go so that I could finally let go of the past. We can only go forward my friend, never back, and even if we could, it would be unwise to do so for every step has brought us to who we are today.

I also wanted to write to let you know that I am doing well.

After leaving I traveled south for a while. I eventually made my way to Emorhin. I stayed there for a while, a chance to get lost in the hustle and bustle of it all. I did some work for the adventurer’s guild there, occasionally working with a few others. But eventually I grew tired of city life and moved on from there too. 

I now find myself in a quite town near the coast that is not unlike the Glade. It reminds me of simpler times, not just when I lived in the Glad but before that too. When I worked with the guard, a time before I knew you, we spent much time in such places. I had always enjoyed the good I could do there, helping take care of threats to the town and other less exciting but nevertheless needed tasks to help the people who live there. That’s what I do now. I have done a lot of good here and have started to become fond of the people around me. In the evenings I often go to sit by the shore and listen to the waves of the ocean. It sometimes makes me think of you.

While it is not entirely without its adventures, it is a simple life and I find it suits me. I am happier more days than not and what else can one ask for in life.

I hope you too are finding happiness my dear friend.

Love always,

Wynlynn
