Dear Teacher,

Asima seems to have forgiven me, bless her heart I don't know how she does it. Perhaps I'm just being hopeful but I think she honestly means it. She doesn't want me to go. I don't know how to explain that if I can't even trust myself, how can she?

Nemiah wants me to stay as well, he thinks that there's a way to still make it all work but I know that they're better off without me-at least for now. Bosia is a good man and a worthy priest, he will protect them well. I'm not the only one capable of performing these duties after all. I'm confident he'll do fine.
Fairly confident.
He really is capable Lakar... but I must admit, there is a feeling of dread building within me. With Souban's escape I'm not sure what to expect. I can't seem to locate her, even with my magic back she's had too far of a head start. I hope I scared her enough to stay away. She must know that if she makes any act against the palace that I will be there in a heartbeat.

This is where you would lecture me I'm sure. "It doesn't matter what you've done or where you've run, you must fulfill your destiny." or something to that nature. Well my destiny, dear teacher, is to be a god's punishment. I am protecting Egypt by staying away from the Pharaoh's family. I have no way of knowing when Set will rise and seek revenge, or wish to rebel against the gods that damned him within me. Until I can determine these things, no one is safe around me.

A lonely damnation is what the gods have sentenced upon him, and thus me. How could I possibly hope to change that?
