To my Bestiarum brothers and sisters,

I didn't mean to destroy it all. It was never planned to go this way. All this to save my friends, my family, my people. No one expected so many to die along the way. I just wanted to be the best that I could be. The Ancient Counsel wanted it to be this way for you, not for me. I get it, I screwed up. Never again shall I mess with or trust the wrong people but don't tell me that you haven't made mistakes in your lifetime.

To the one I hurt, you know who you are. I just did what I had to do. You have forgiven me and we can hopefully be together once again.

I apologise to all the ones that died because of my family. It turns out that I never truly knew anyone the way I thought. I dreamt that I would grow up as a successful witch and never be in the limelight. Never have to deal with a worry that was more than a career and grades wise. This want never occurred as destiny clouded everything. My destiny didn't give a crap about who was in front of me. It cared about completing its mission. Somehow only part one is complete. There is more to come. I can feel it.

I'm sorry to the ones that surrounded me. No matter what happened they all lost a shred of their humanity. I used to hate the humans and their silly emotions. What was the point in crying? Now my biggest fear is losing that part of myself, even now.

I never meant for so many to die for me, only the ones against. I hope that one day I would be hated by my people. You forgave me too quickly. I'm not a girl who cries and says that it is all my fault even though it isn't. It is my fault; you all know it. I don't cry about it; it makes me realise that all I can do now is give back for my crimes. Use my time for good.

I know everything I did was what was needed for our survival but it doesn't make it any less wrong or makes me feel any better. There are no heroes in our world. There only people fighting against a cause.

I saved us through destruction, torment and murder. We all know that it was the only way. We all know what I am now but I hope that the next will serve kinder. Yet again, I am sorry for destroying it all.

Kind Regards, Melodînæy Leila Ravenswood
