Death Song
Dear Mom,
I meant to tell you this weird man from Zalan Intelligence offered me a job, a few months ago. Said I could be a "real" hero and a bunch of other stuff. Part of it sounded appealing, but something about him made me feel really uncomfortable.
I wonder if I'm just avoiding my "potential." Like perhaps I am supposed to be some great general or warrior, or whatever. But I just don't feel that desire within me. Now if I had been offered to give up all this army stuff and play at the Emperor's Palace as a regular job then I might've accepted!
Over these years as I've played for others and mainly for myself, I truly believe I really was meant to play music in this world. Just events didn't work out for me I guess, but even within this situation, I've still found a way to indulge in my passion and I suppose it's better than never being able to at all.
Who knows? Perhaps one day all of this will be over and I'll come out of this alive and manage to pursue music without hindrance.
I know that sounds a little uncharacteristically optimistic from me, but I guess I still have a little hope left after all.
Give my love to the rest of the family
Your son
