Chosen

by Kit

Dear Sbaridin
 
By now you know I am a fraud and no goddess. I did enjoy meeting you though and I am sorry I could not save you. In hindsight, I could have cast revivify on you but that would have made me seem even godlier and it was time for the deception to stop.
 
I am a thief and now an adventurer. I am also working on being a friend and a better person – but that is a work in progress and not going all that great.
 
I have no clue where we are or what we are doing here in your world. It is so very different from where we came from. Lhoris, Arman, Doc, Viridian and I are apparently the chosen ones. At the orphanage, I was always the last one picked – probably because I am a half-breed but possibly because I am a little odd. So it does feel kind of good to be chosen!
 
I wish I would have asked you about your life. Did you have big plans? Did you want to be a Captain one day? Did you believe in love? My late husband and I loved each other but I am not sure we were really in love. He was good for me, and I was good to him. I do not think I will be in a relationship again, but I do miss the nights. Should I do what Viridian does and just hook up with people on our travels? How do I make that happen? I have seen people flirting but that seems so hard.
 
If you were still alive, I could have asked you how to go about it. But that would probably not have come across as very godly.
 
I wish you well in whatever lies ahead for you.
 
Kit
