83rd Letter

Damned Destiny! Leave me alone!

I overheard news from above again. It’s almost as if the Angels above are purposely whispering this around me. Of course they are! You know how you angels above love to be. Sprinkling little signs here and there for all of us down here.

This time the news was about Destiny, and what she might do again. And I know I have something to do with. What a pain. If there’s one thing I know about what Destiny loves to do with me, it means this also has some to do with her.

I am tired of my duties to her. Please help me, my darling. Could you at least convince them to give me a break? A century, at the least. It is trouble enough to be guardian of one who has forsaken the light. But to be bound to her? I wish all of you above assigned me a more enjoyable duty. A more ‘achievable’ duty? A more rewarding duty, at the least. I’ve not recieved an ounce of gratitude from her since I was posted out here. And I thought I was finally free.

Is Destiny truly coming down here to give me a visit again? I thought that our dear Dame had already shattered the opportunity between her and I in this life time. Why is Destiny coming down here again for me? I’ve no other contracts to fulfill, don’t I? I thought I was finally free.

I knight is tired. Let me enjoy the physical planes alone for just a cycle please. Some peace and quiet would be nice. I swear I’ll uphold whatever I’m assigned to once I’ve had some rest. But please, let me have a little peace. The last I heard she had anything but peace about her. And I feel her calling me too. Every night. How is a knight ever supposed to find slumber.

Please grant me strength, my darling angel above. You know I need it.

Don’t think that I did not hear the sudden news about me. You angels above are much too chatty for my liking.

Love from yours truly

-Daniel Roy
