Forgotten Letter

My young apprentice:

Apologies for not addressing you by name. My memory is becoming less reliable by the day, a problem that keeps me awake at night. Sometimes I cannot even wield a sword proficiently, as if it were a strange object in my hand. I am sure this has happened to you at least once.

Nevertheless, all is not lost. I heard rumors about a place called Crystal Archways, in which a myriad of marvelous minerals grow in capricious forms. It is said that they react to external influences, producing soothing sounds, almost like natural music.

I plan to visit this place and obtain these crystals to study them further. I have an idea to construct a unique kind of journal to keep my memories afloat, in case I fully lose my mind. We will discuss the possibility of you accessing it once it is finished, so you can learn from it even during my absence.

I will be back in a few weeks; focus on your studies as if I were at your side.

Your master
