Alec Mal

Sweet smell of a Great Sorrow
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking

Day 7
Khadim of the Seven Towers. Seven Towers. The City of Towers. Call it what you will. I call it home.
I am writing this to try to make sense of what happened a week ago.
A week ago, we had over a twenty thousand people in our city. Humans, dwarves, elves, everyone. Our towers were the homes of magi who protected the city, taught those with magical talent, assisted in our lives. They helped the dwarves build our sewers, defended the city against the worst of the weather that rolled in from the mountains. Along with the Guild Council, they ran the city.

The City, After

You cannot kill hope.
