We Lost

There was no way to beat the giants. There were just too many things that wanted to gobble us up. I told everyone to run and meet up where we buried Winward. Firnix flew with me. Chill go there a few hours after us. We waited for two days. No one else ever showed up. We decided to go back to see if they got lost. The castle was gone, but our people were not. Zachary, Goodnight, and Dreadnought all lay dead.
 
Firnix and I cried and cried over Goodnight. I told Firnix I would take care of him now, and I think he likes that idea. I won't let him forget his mommy though. I took some of her teeth and put them in a little pouch for Firnix to wear around his neck. Goodnight would like that I think. She had a journal of her secrets and one with recipes and stuff so I kept those. She had some potions and a cool bag so I kept those and then burned her body. I put the ashes in a pouch and will take them to that swamp she loved.
 
I buried Zachary's armor and burned his body. I found a letter to his dad that he didn't get a chance to send, so I will take his ashes, this letter, and his best stuff to the address on that letter. I will tell his dad that with my help Zachary was becoming better. I got the dragon scales from Chill and I will give those to his dad too and let him know Zachary wanted to make armor out of them.
 
I tried to burn Dreadnought but that didn't work so we buried him. I will take some of his favorite things and try to find his master and tell him what happened.
 
I told Chill if he ever comes across Professor Tyco's Traveling Troupe of Terrors and Titilations, he should go and tell them I said hello and I love them and I miss them, and I would come back to them as soon as I could. Then Firnix and I told him goodbye and we flew away toghether.
 
Maybe when we are done taking Goodnight to her swamp, and taking Zachary to his dad, and trying to find Dreadnought's master, I will finally go do that fight I Was supposed to enter. Except the only thing is, I don't really care about that anymore. I wanted to win so I could get my real wings back, but I don't want that anymore. These wings are special. Like my journey.
 
I still want to find out more about Harrow and Eloi, but maybe I can do that while I travel with the carnival. When I am strong enough I will find Valias and the twins and carry out Eloi's last wish. I'll use his crowbar for that.
