It is with the greatest of regrets and with the heaviest of hearts that
I say farewell, dear land of Aetolia.
Many things have come to pass in recent times which I will not speak of,
but event after event have led me to this decision. I may return, but it
will be many years from now if I do. I may pop in every now and then,
but then again I may not.
This land has brought great joy to me at times, but recently I have
found mostly sorrow and heartache.
For those of you who know me, take care. For those of you who
don't...well, take care too. Always strive to acheive your best, even if
it does not seem to be as good as someone else's best.
Always stand up for what you believe in, no matter who or what is
against you.
Always remember, in the darkest of times, there is always light
somewhere, and always will be. For light and darkness are opposites. One
cannot survive without the other.
As for good and evil, I doubt that we will ever come to a conclusion in
that argument, other than they are opposites; like light and darkness,
there will always be both.
I think I've rambled on long enough now. I'll leave those of you who
have bothered to read this alone to your thoughts now.
Take care, Aetolians. It was nice knowing you. (Well, not all of you :P)

will also be taking a many-year absence.)
