I do not know, to be honest. It is hard to judge from a single message alone if she’d truly prefer her current circumstances. The life of a mercenary is not an easy one, but we feel at home and surrounded by family here. It just makes do and is better than nothing.

On the other hand, I am not the one who could decide anything for her. Nor do I have the intention to ever be close enough to her to influence her in any way. I am just selfish enough to desire her face among the ones in our base. I consider her a good friend, and her mere existence around me would make my life more bearable. From there, she can do whatever she wants.

However, it seems you two gentlemen did not pursue her enough to make her stick with you either. Which is a shame.

She will have to decide for herself.

Troy Augustin
Knight
