130: The Middle Mountains
Hello, mum. I have some sad news. Guido has decided to leave us. He didn’t really explain why, but after talking to Hildegund he said he wouldn’t go with us to Karak Skygg. I think perhaps he has found Myrmidia again, and wants to do her work. It makes you wonder, though, why would Myrmidia send him a vision of some halflings that needed to be protected, and then deliver him to those halflings, only for him to leave again. Perhaps he thinks those halflings don’t need protecting any more. And he might be right. Dreamy has gone (great job protecting him, Guido) and Willow seems to have landed on her feet, so perhaps he thinks I don’t need help (and I am a lot tougher than I was when we first met, mum). So that’s that. Blume said she thinks he’s going to turn into a giant fire eagle and fly away. And I think he might. Anyway, I will miss him, even if he was pompous and overbearing. We left for Karak Skygg first thing the next day and barely had time to say goodbye to Guido. And we hadn’t...
