No moresss refugesss for me to hidesss in exceptss oness of my ownss makingsss. Makesss me remembersss what Lyna sssaid whensss Floran'Da wassa founded. Isss a place where Floran can go and be Floran. A refugesss for thossse who needsss to be accepted but willsss never be. An examplesss of being bettersss than what oness expectss. Wasss meant asss home for Floranss back thensss. But becamesss home for outcasstss and losstsss. Only now realissess I wasss losst asss well. Lynasss gave Floran sssomething to fight for. Tcloass and Borinss gave Floran sssomeone to protectsss. Franz and Johnsss gave Floran oathsss to upholdsss. Now Floran mussst keep her promissesss. Isss bessst to ssstartsss with thisss cultsss of flesssh. Isss itchingsss to beamsss back down to Mudsss. To retrievesss what Floran left behindsss.

Noissse ssscaresss off sssmaller creaturesss but bigger onesss isss sslower to move off, race alongssside herdssss and pumpsss buckssshotsss into themsss. Cressstsss hill and waitsss for kill, crosssbow at readysss. Issss not Floran'sss normal methodsss of huntingsss but isss. Relaxing in waysss. Kniferoot, ssspiritsss-blesssed childerss hasss kept promissse. Keepsss in contact with Floran. Talksss about ssstudiesss in core ssssectorss and outsssidesss council ssspace. Triesss to explain thingsss which Floran not undersstand. Likesss Amaryllisss, Likesss Darrensss, Likesss Tcloa and Borinssss. Sssseesss all of them reflected in Kniferootsss. Isss not Floran qualitiesss, not proper Floran, but isss ssstill goodsss qualitiesss. Disssapointed yesss, but notsss upssset. Wouldsss be. What isss wordsss. Hippocraticsss. Yesss, wouldsss be hippocraticsss to be upssset at Kniferoot. Issss good childersss after all, may not likesss Floran but ressspectsss. Isss ssso much like Darrensss. Floran misssesss sssilly humansss, alwaysss talkingss, advisssingsss. Misssesss Lilithss, Havoksss. Wasss one of fewsss who truly underssstood Floran. Issss amazing womansss.
