We are attacking a well defended fortification in a few hours and I am in constant company of what I can only assume to be a vampire or some other walking dead. It is needless to say but I see my chances of coming out of this unscathed, much less alive, slim. So as much as I would love not to I think it prudent to leave some sort of will or last words in case what I fear comes to pass. I intend for all in my company at present to read this and pray that if it has come to this point that you will honor my wishes even if we have known each other for so short of a time and under such circumstances.
First off, to the Sclavini that I so dearly despise for getting me into this, (in Sclavini)
Feliks, Kazi, you are rash and brutish. Without thinking you rush into the unknown like two idiots and drag along those with you. Someday this will get you killed but this is what I admire about you. You can face the unknown face forward with little if, if any at all. This courage is something I would never be able to possess. We were thrust together under less than pleasant circumstances and I'm truly sorry I couldn't have known you under better times. I leave a request for you and I hope you will honor it, I believe you hold honor above many things and I can only hope I'm right. I have most likely died an unsavory way but my last wishes are still selfish of me. Please protect Llyssa first and foremost. She can be wild and headstrong at times, sort of reminds me of you Kazi, but I've always been there to look after her and to think that she would be alone is unbearable. You are good people, even if not the most mannerly, so I know she would be in good care with you even if you hatred for my people runs as deep as you would like me to think. Secondly, I was investigating a 'cult' and whether they have connections with the cult you refer to I don't know but it's worth checking out. My investigation research in at my estate and I'd like you to retrieve it and continue where I left off. Two people have already died needlessly at their hands and countless more that I haven't bared witness to. I know who I'm looking for but every time I get close I find bodies in their wake, please find these people and put a stop to it. Don't let Llyssa know what I have asked of you for her sake, she's never been one to take the protection of others. She would not take me trying to protect her from beyond the grave very well I think. Otherwise she will help you get what is needed from the estate, technically speaking she is now the Lord of that province.
Now, to my dear cousin,
Llyssa, you are like a sister to me and you are the closest family I ever had. You'd have hit me and called me soft had I said this before but know that I love you and would never let anything happen to you. To know that I've put you in such a situation that we are now in, I must atone some way and hopefully the after lifer allows me to find a way. Even though I have left you I have a request of you. Find your brother, I hear he's in solitude somewhere near the coast but sadly I haven't more information than that. If you can find him tell him that he will be forgiven and things between us cleared if he will help you and the others in anyway he can. The Sclavini and company seem to be dealing with things that could reshape the world as we know it and I trust them to be on the side that fights against the darkness. They are brutes but bear with them, have your brother help them and have him know that I'm sorry for what he must have been through since leaving… Also, I know the question must have been raised before. Yes, I had my parents killed but I trust you know why and if there are ill feelings I hope you can forgive me but they were cruel, evil people that were no more my parents than they were fit to rule. Remember I love you always.
Also, to the Gnome,
Sir Flint, you can have my pistols but on one condition: they are to be used in the quest for justice only and if by some unfathomable chance that Kendall still lives when you read this then let his dying moment be filled with his crimes upon the innocent and the sound of my guns. I trust you will not have a problem with this arrangement. If you misuse them I swear upon my grave that I will curse those guns for all eternity ;).
I don't think I'm missing anything. Everything I own goes to Llyssa by blood rite so I don't have to name possessions off. Obviously get retribution upon the person that killed me obviously unless I somehow died of accident then just curse at me for my own carelessness. To the others that seem to be in my company at present, I didn't have time to get to know you but I'm sure it would have been an interesting time had I been able to. What I have asked of all you is selfish but I can't think of anyone else to be able to carry my requests out.
