Found in a Floating Bottle at 74.7S, 9.9E on the shoreline south west of Qalaba'r.
A Soggy Note
A salty, waterlogged note.
I recall the countless snaps of string on wood.
And the rush of air -- the signal of death.
The approach of death in flight.
I was once a champion with a dangerous secret-
Now old and gray, fingers trembling to grip a simple quill-
I have resigned myself to the light.
Those who follow the true path of the hunter
need only seek the light -- I will be here.
Waiting for you to come.
-- A hermit
