On Grave Robbing

by Devin Eilnara

I need to apologize to Cal. I was being unfair. My morals tell me to let the dead rest but I also know that there are things which are far more important to me than that believe. There is definitely some knowledge out there for which I would rob more than one grave. And in the end, this is not my decision to make, it's Cal's. Where I've had a choice to go and keep going on this adventure (although it sometimes doesn't feel like it), she did not have that. She was thrown into it. I can't even imagine how big of a burden this must be every single day. So who am I to judge her for what she chooses to do to help her on her way. I should be there by her side, god damn it, without question. Because I chose to be here and she could not. Guess I fucked that up as well.
 
There will always be a part of me that wonders if she isn't going too far. If the price she pays for power is too high and in the end will corrupt my friend. But the only thing I can do, should do, is talk to her about my concerns and then be there by her side no matter her choice.
 
I have heard enough stories and legends of heroes. In this one, They are the heroes and I am the loyal friend.
