OMG I found Kayin sleeping in my room this morning. Don't get me wrong, i don't mind that he's there, but WTF is he doing there and why isn't he locked away in some cage in the cave somewhere?!? How did he get out? Cuz I know the adventurers in Lochling coudn't have done that by themselves. What's worse is that Walker wan't there. Let me back up...
I was having this dream about this time that Gregor threw me in a river and my clothes were sopping wet when I got out...nevermind. Anyway, i wa waking up and felt hat I THOUGHT was Walker sleeping next to me. So I thought i'd wake him up real painful like with one of my fightin' pillows. So I creeped real quiet over to him and wa about to smash him with it when i saw it wasn't Walker. Imagine the thoughts that went through my head. It wa, in fact, Kayin! You know, that wolven that last time I heard wa locked away in a cave that we couldn't even stick a toe in without dying painful deaths and surrounded by undead. The very same wolven who went nuts and doesn't remember anything. How the heck did he get in MY room...and sleeping next to me?!? I mean, is he still crazy? Does he remember anything or am I going to be dinner when he wakes up? Was one of the Horseman going to jump through my window and slaughter me to get his goods back?
All this was running through my head when suddenly I also had a more important thought crop up. WHERE WAS WALKER?!?! In fact, the thought screamed itself to me just like that, and it was loud. I heard it. Trust me. I needed to find him, especially with this knowledge. Knowing this town, they probably talked him into going to rescuing him (he's so goody goody like that) and he died. No one would tell me, of course, because they don't want to find out how I would react to their ignorance and stupidity for letting him die either. I could feel myself getting more scared by the second, and with that came anger. Yeah, I needed to find him, and I needed to find him now.
It was time to wake up Kayin and I truly hoped you were back to being the Kayin I knew.

I had to watch today as Walker walked through the portal that would take him to his next test. I knew this test and it was not a good one. In fact, it really, really sucked. But he went, just as I knew he would, and I watched from the sidelines.
He did well, I give him that, but each success made me cringe a little bit more, until he got to his third test. I expected him to pass that one as well...he could have...but he chose to walk away instead. Is it bad to say I'm happy he failed?
