The Scattered Journal

You actually recovered all the pages of my diary? I'm impressed!

If you want to read them all in order, you'll need to get them bound at a printing press.

Just... promise me you'll keep my secret?

I'm happy in my new life, away from the squabbling of the noble families.

I wouldn't give it up for the throne in Ezna, or all the jewels in Marianople.

My family would never understand why I left. Their image of me would never fall in love with a commoner, or throw away the crown. Why ruin it for them now?

But if you do read my story, remember this: no one can tell you who to love. If you find someone, you hold on while you can. Because you never know what storms may come, or how long you have before they're gone forever.
