To those not of the Lionheart Family, this will be boring and is advised
to not read it.

In my earlier days, before becoming a Druid, I have done your family a
grievous crime.
Upon my travels I had come across an individual who was daydreaming and
decided to look upon her inventory. I noticed then that she carried a
numerous amount of keys. I took it upon myself to take a closer look and
upon doing so noticed she carried two identical keys to a one Lionheart
family house. Curious at the time I procured one and set about finding
the location.

Now, my reasons for doing so are besides the point, at the time I felt
no remorse for my actions, nor guild or shame. If I needed to provide an
excuse it would be nothing short of a lie. I was simply acting on
impulse to occupy my time. Perhaps I wished to see what a normal
family's house looked like, or perhaps I am simply a monster.

This is not the only part for which I am indebted to your family. For it
is the actions which follow which I need to explain.

I had come across someone in the house on many of my visits, unaware
that I was in plain sight. As was my nature, I lied and through it was
believed by the person, whose name I will withhold for I do not know if
he wishes to be known, I never considered the event a poor event on my
behalf.

To sum up my actions so far, I have stolen from your family, intruded
upon your home, and lied to a representative hiding the entire fact.

I have never given the event much thought, it was merely another moment
in my life which was unimportant. Some time later, I have changed,
though no entirely, drastically, or perhaps much at all. My once
worthless life had been touched and as such I decided upon a course to
change.

Which brings me to the present and the truth. I had taken a liking to
your house and had never truly desired to return or turn myself in,
however at some faint level I longed for someone to judge me for my
actions, openly. This sounds foolish, but for me I have lived in the
shadows and in solitude for far too long. Even if it meant my
destruction, I wished to be judged. I wanted to be changed, to be more
than what I am. That is not the reason behind this post. This post is
the results of that statement.

As such, I apologize now, openly, to the Lionheart family for my crimes.
I seek to pay for them in whichever manner is fitting for the family.
Please have someone contact me for my punishment. So that I can become
someone who is whole, I will bear my sin to all. I will seek to rise
above disappointments and develop those emotions which are socially
acceptable.

I apologize to all. I promise to raise my standards so that possible
future relationships can be something of pride for the opposite party.

I believe that is all. I await my punishment and wish to return the key
to a proper owner.
