On the Road

Dear Mom,

I'm sorry. I just want to say that before anything else. I know you're worried about me, and I know my last big adventure didn't end so well, and I know you almost lost me. I'm so sorry for making you worry, but I'm really sorry I yelled at you before I left. You were just trying to protect me by keeping me home, I understand that, but I wish you could understand me, too.

I've tasted the world, Mom. I can't stay home when there's so much more out there. I love you, and I love Uncle, but I can't be there all the time. Yes, the world is dangerous, but you know that danger can come to you anyway so what difference does it make? I've gotten an invitation to go help others and so, with Pelor's blessing, I'm going to go! You know I'll do whatever it takes to get rid of evil, no matter what;! and you know I need to get away from reminders of Hadr Please, Mom, I'll do what needs to be done, but I'd really rather be doing it knowing that you support me.

May the blessings of Pelor and his servant, St. Hadrian, be on you. On both of us.

I love you,
Jeral
