Hey J,

I'm glad you're alive again. Don't ask how I know. It's complicated. 

I'm not sure how alive I'm going to be soon. There was a fight. Someone needed my power, he was a Paladin too. One of us needed to stay and fight to the end. One of us had to lead a retreat.

He stayed. I left. I gave him all the power I had left and he went to fight the giant snake monsters. I helped the townsfolk escape. 

Don't go to Endamos. It's all snakes now.

All that power is gone and it's not coming back…
