Chapter Text

26 Jacker, 1117

John,

We barely missed an ambush at the ruins. Don’t look so smug; it’s unattractive. Aradia and the rest are fine, for the most part. Some of the workers had to be sent to a proper healer, but the one there was able to take care of most of the injured. The attack seemed targeted, beyond just ravaging through the sleeping quarters looking for us, but I don’t have enough to go on to know for sure.

Roxy and Sir Strider are on their way back, but Sir Vantas and I have another stop to make. Don’t give me that look. We will send word as we can.

 

Dirk

26 Jacker, 1117

Rose,

I am struck with nostalgia for the summers of our childhood. I look forward to when you can next return home. I have learned much at the ruins.

 

Dirk

 

P.S. Are you aware of the source of Sir Vantas’s headaches?

Notes:

I promise there's a full chapter next week lol
Also, I think it's important to say, that one of the main reasons I'm making sure to bump this work up in my priority alongside my many other projects is I have one fan in particular who made their desire for more updates known. Please let creators know you like their work! It's hard to stay motivated when it feels like you're putting things out into a void, especially in cases like mine where I had an obstacle to overcome with my pacing and being unsure if my planned end still worked the way I initially envisioned it.
