Blood, and Heartache.

I know that, my honorable duty brings safety and joy to those whom
deserve such luxuries. I am honored to take the blade to the heretics
whom would seek to harm the pure. As I persevere through this heartache
I try to put most of my thought, and time into my service. While it is
only a temporary releif, concentrating my focus takes my thoughts away
from my failure to know the love of a woman.

The fact remains, however. That I have devoted my life to warfare.
Over the years, I have washed blood from my hands countless times
upon returning to my quarters. Unlike most of my kind, I do not
walk a path of peace. My path is full of violence. I am sure that
my actions seem barbaric to many. And to one as Ailinilia I must
appear quite the savage. She is right to think so of me, for with
my duties comes murder.Murder is ugly...I am ugly. I do not for
one moment blame her for her decision.

The truth is, besides my soldiers I have only ever known one other
whom has fully understood me. I take solace in the knowledge that
she is always with me, guarding me and watching over me. Had I
everything to do over once more..I would not have changed a single
action.
