Dear Diary,

I really thought this was it. I thought that our long journey had finally come to a close. That our countless wanderings through endless worlds had come to an end. I had faith in Q!uinn's double -- the Sorceror -- as he was called. I guess I forgot that no matter how much Quinn and his doubles might possess, they still have the one quality we all share. They are fallible. They make mistakes.

When the gate didn't squeak my heart felt like it was going to burst. There was so much anticipation in the moment...so much riding on that one tiny sound. I only wish we had had more time. What if we were wrong? What if it was home? So much could have happened since we left that it is almost impossible to be sure. Which makes me wonder if we do slide home -- will we recognize it? I guess the answer lies in our next slide...and the one after that...and the one after that.

Love,

Wade
