The following letter was found torn and discarded from the journal of Caspian, he obviously never wished for it to be found... Will the last plan he has formed work...? or is it just another scheme that will ultimately lead to further trouble?
All this time I was looking for the one that might ease our path into the den of the Asguardians but alas it was not meant to be. Sister Myrtis passed me a note telling me what I had most feared. Commander Darion of the 11th legion is presumed dead….

Myrtis told me the messenger informed her the note was found on a mutilated burnt corpse. How can someone be so brave in the face of so much pain. Her eyes showed no trace of a tear her concerns on none but our family, and me…! What do I do but scheme, put others in danger and for what…. Is it for the good of the Clan, my family or simply because I do not have the means, the strength that the others have.
Did I really believe that putting another in mortal danger solve our families problems? No do not fool yourself Caspian you did what you did for your own selfish reasons! But I also did it for them all! I had to do it… I made a promise to her… He cannot be allowed to live!
I do not know who I am anymore… I do not recognise these blood stained hands before me. I am haunted… the very ink that flows onto this piece of parchment seems to blacken with Nashara’s…. Zethrion’s blood…
No more! Tonight I will draw the House of Asgaurd out into the open. One last scheme. I ride to arrange the resurrection of my mortal enemy, the only person who truly knows the horrors of my former life. The one that might one day end the dream I have been living.
Perhaps I will make a Fearghal yet.
I just hope that innocent girl, Mae doesn’t not follow me for I may be riding to my death.
