This letter is faded with age
Captain Isabella has not yet revealed our destination, and I am not sure she herself knows – she simply seems to be searching for something, and refuses to speak of it. The Heretic helps her in her efforts, though his counsel has proven to our detriment, and to hers, I suspect.
In the morning, we march for the North. I for one, am glad to leave Nine-Man Knoll. I cannot bear that place, for I am angry at myself for those who were punished, yet still am relieved I was not the tenth man to join them.
