Time of Peace

Kvetha Kai Nates,

It has been to long since I have written and I am weary with sorrow, not the sorrow that comes with defeat for the war against Norkvolar ended in our favor, but I am weary for the war has taken the lives of many of our most devoted and courageous warriors many of whom I have been friends with for many a decade. I must busy myself with other things now to relieve my mind of our losses. I am eager to tell you the end of my tale.

The king was baffled that the Captain spoke the strange words that he himself had just come to learn of himself. After a time of surprised silence the king smiled and broke the deathly silence by telling his men what had happened. With eyes wide and ears open the guards were anxious to learn what had transpired while they were unconscious. After the king had done this he and his men returned to the camp and gathered sacks and chests to the room and filled them with the precious gems and sparkling metals. The king always kept a special chest with him for valuables he wished to travel with and set the great gem inside it.
