Stray hound and stray cats, all so far, all so close, chains bound, anchors foundered. Foul winds, broken mast, ripped sails, blown rudder. Cold gusts blow through shattered panes, blood and water running through our veins.

 We have eaten less in 8 weeks than anyone should in seven days. We have upgraded our assault to the maximum human limit. But the sickness has returned, annihilating all in its course. Readily bled out, immensely fatigued, malnourished, the ice we thread runs ever thinner. If we do not break out in the coming weeks, and unless we receive reinforcements, we are finished. No other way to define our immediate and impending situation. We are being annihilated and soon there shall be nothing left. We are ready for everything, anything.

 Itrepidinu did not turn up for dinner, for the first time ever. If he too is gone, my heart shall not take it. And there's more, there always is.

Hope long forlorn, comfort long dismissed, love but forgotten, dreams to nightmares, dark nights, scorching sun, and this sterile desert of mankind. We took an oath to strive for the lesser, and we only have one last shield, sword, and banner. The most crucial. Faith.  May God not fail us, despite how terribly and often, we have failed Him.  Ironblood Lazarite Knight, damned Lepper, Last Baron.

Empty, silent, barren, and unsustainable. Inside or outside, we are the stranger who walks you by every day. Such the fate of a Pariah, to walk always among strangers, and remain unknown to all.
