Unsent Letter

Pa,

Is it true what they say? An angel walks among men? The Knights march to Kor Valar. If I were two years older, I’d have passed my trials and I’d be marching with them.

Instead, I stay. A skeleton crew will guard the fort until the Knights can return. You’d be proud. No more polishing shields for me. They gave me a sword. Though I doubt it will ever see battle.

I’ll write soon.
