My lord… by the time you read this, I'll probably already be far from Caldrath Mountain.
I'm truly sorry for leaving without saying anything first. I know disappearing like this is disrespectful, but… I just couldn't bring myself to face you.
Serving you has genuinely been one of the best things that has ever happened to me. Even though I was cowardly and incompetent most of the time, you still accepted me as your ward. You never mocked me or treated me like I was beneath you.
Truthfully… I don't think I deserve that kindness.
After the Proving, I finally realized something. Someone like me has no place beside someone like you. I lost my very first battle without accomplishing anything. I couldn't even stand properly once blood started spilling everywhere.
I'm weak, my lord.
The only thing I'm really good at is carrying too many bags and overpacking things nobody needs.
