On second thought, I have word home that my family should not put foot here at all - not because of everything there is to see, which my swallow them and their finances up, but because I have come to see things that no one should have to see; in my opinion, anyways.

Not too long ago I decided to follow the trail of Althea as I needed to see her, but it turned out it was a bad call on my part. One moment I was in the Dark Forest and the next I was in the same forest but everything had been cursed. I panicked and hurried towards Miltown, ran into the gate just to stop and take in my surrounding - this was not the Miltown I know. I turned back towards the forest in hopes that Dundee were still there, that it hadn't been destroyed in an instant like Miltown had been - but I couldn't even get there. Cursed wolves and bears.

But then my hopes was perked at the sound of the world crier's voice. There was still life! Someone had made it out alive. But there was just one thing wrong with him and that was that he said that all was well...

I wanted to pull my hair out of my head. How could he say all was well when the forest was now cursed and Miltown was destroyed!

Luckily, Althea received my call for help and she came to me. As it turns out nothing in the present was destroyed as I have feared, but instead by following her trail I have walked into what she calls...n'Rolav. I am not certain what that place was or how it works but I have no desire to put foot there again. The happiest moment in my time here was the moment I returned to the Miltown I knew.

I have explored the Miltown Mills as much as I can for now, and I have ventured into the desert which was quite the experience after running into some guardian that shouldn't have been there, well; at least I don't think it should have been. But Althea assured me that it had left. But apart from that all is well.

I have a sponsor now and soon I will turn into the path of my profession.

One step closer to the mountain.
