IV - The Emperor

Corasa's Journal
-"We have been wandering for five days since the flash. We haven't seen another dragon or familiar yet. Razmolt keeps searching, every town or valley we have come across had been empty"
-"It's a little over a week now. Still noone"
-"Razmolt is very tired. That is three months of wandering. He doesn't sleep or eat much, we just travel. He hardy speaks anymore and he has stopped getting hopeful every time an animals snaps a twig. I think he is accepting that we really are alone"
-"We are back home. Everything seems a little older with the level of dust and spiders allover them in the year we had been gone. I think we'll settle here for a while"
-"He has stopped talking alltogether"
-"We are stocking food and repair things. We are getting back to the routine, only it is very quiet this time"
-"I thought I heard flapping today but found noone. I guess I was wrong"
-"He sat on the throne today. For the first time in months I heard his voice, he mumbled that it was comfortable"
-"The castle is bright and clean thanks to us. If the king and the queen
-"Last night there was a fullmoon and he sang under it. I didn't think I would hear this again"
-"Someone joined his melody yesterday night. By the time we realized what we were hearing, the voice was gone"
-"He is going to try again tonight. I can feel a little glimmer of hope growing inside of him, but he is trying to contain it. I think he is scared... We have had so many disapointments these last three years"
-"Nobody came"
-"I know he was trying not to expect, but I can feel his devestation now. I can't do anything to help"
-"There is an infestation to our stock. He won't move so I have to look it up"
-"I was almost killed by a scaleback but he came to save me. Well at least he is up. Still got some fire in him"
-"There was a Mirror! Both of us saw it, it was dragging off one of our stock animals, with the scaleback from two days ago by its side, it must be its familiar. He tried to tlk to it, I could feel his heart racing, but the Mirror just hissed at him and flew off. We tried to catch up, but it disappeared"
-"He won't stay at home, we are on the rush again, but I don't mind this time. I am happy, we have a proof of life. We are not alone"
