the Road
Here I am, writing of my hopes and fears before leaving home for the first time. Trying to remember a sister I have not seen in ten years. A sister that vanished, not the be heard from again. A sister, I fear, that is long-dead and will never be found.
Still, I wonder why the Elders have not sent anyone to look for Nimindil until now. Why have they waited? It is as if they did not really care about her - but now they send us to search. Only us, myself and Amaranth, even though by tradition we should not leave the House for years yet on our own. I am only 65 and Ami only 60. What mad plan do the Elders come up with?
No matter. We shall find Nimindil and that will prove our worth. No longer will I have to fight daily with my cousins over belonging to the family. No longer will I have to doubt myself.
