The following information was taken from the fragments of a journal written sometime in the Medieval period. It has been translated into modern English for clearer understanding.
The War of Silent Wings was over, we [information missing]. I wish it could have ended without bloodshed, but I had feeling it wouldn't. After the war ended, I left Queen Hannah's court. Some wished I would stay, but I always felt uncomfortable in those kinds of settings. I didn't belong there and I left before anyone could convince me to stay.
I went back to my old life and over the period of many years, I got rich. Got caught a few times, but I always managed to escape thanks to the [information missing].
Oh dear, time has caught up to me it seems. I cannot even remember if I remained friends with Queen Hannah. In all likelihood, I probably did. I have a feeling this is what happened, but I am old...so very old and tired...I can't remember. My memory isn't what it used to be it seems.
I have reached the end of my life, I don't have long. I had to write all this down, the things I experienced in my life. What I could remember anyway. Perhaps it will be of some use to someone later.
Did I get married? Oh my, yes I did! Oh, what a handsome young man he was. Few men could keep up with me, but he certainly did. Let's see if I remember right. We were married for...at least 20 years. Yes, I remember he was taken from me a little too soon. The memories are too painful to write down. I never remarried after that, I just couldn't find anyone I was interested in. No one could measure up to my husband, but perhaps I set too a high a standard.
I had several children, all raised to be better than me and none of them ended up being a thief like I was. I am so proud of them. They even had families of their own and I so love being a grandmother. By the time I became a grandmother, I had already given up the path of the thief. I was leading a much better life by then.
I had many adventures over the years, always stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. I have fought demonic-like entities, Dragons, warlords, pirates, vampires and anything else you can imagine. But now, it is time to rest. I have detailed as much of my life in my journal and now it it time to end it.
As I reach the end of my life, I look back with very few regrets. I lived a good life, a life lived to it's fullest. I only wish my husband was here with me. At least my children have come. I will die surrounded by family along with the love and warmth that comes with it. I couldn't ask for a better ending.
And so it ends.
