My ma always said, listen to your heart and follow your soul. And in times like these it is important to remember that.
With Uther Pendragon dead at the hands of the invading barbarians and his son Arthur taking the throne, Camelot is in chaos. It will take a strong leader to unite the land if indeed there is any left by the end of this.
I am Kyna, in case you were wondering that is pronounced (key- naa). My ma said that it meant compassion. I am a maid who works in the castle at camelot. My ma was killed in a raid by the Barbarians five years ago and my father left before i was born. I have started this diary so that the world may one day be able to glean a little bit of truth as to what happened in these uncertain times. And short of that, so that I can make sense of some of the things that are happening.
