notes for people

Ragnar,

I fear in my haste and turmoil, I have hurt Athelstan. I'm not sure I can ask his forgiveness, not yet. But I ask yours.

Look after him, for I love you both more than words can say. And could not bear to lose either of you. Especially of my own doing.

Yours eternal,
Sinric.

Father Harman,

You know well I have little love for the church and it's ministers but Athelstan heeds you and so I appeal to you.

He is hurting, deeply and in ways I cannot help him. I fear in trying, I have made it worse. I ask you to look to him, and give him hope if you can.

For I must go, and fear only to do further damage.

I know you have little love for me but I ask you to do this for Athelstan's sake.

Sinric.

Athelstan,

I don't deserves your forgiveness so I won't ask for it. But know I love you and always will.

Sinric.
