A letter from Rivulet Brook, #1

So with the blessing of my DM, I am going to be writing letters home from my D&D character Rivulet Brooks. Here is the first one!

Dear Glarmet,

Not sure when this letter will find you as I know you are often sailing, but it may be even longer before you can reach me these days. You have likely already heard from our friends at the temple, but I have taken up with a party of adventurers and left Goa. I am sorry that we did not get a chance to say goodbye, but I do believe Geshtai will ensure that our paths cross again one day. Until then, perhaps letters will serve our friendship well.

I have done and seen quite a lot in my time away from Goa. I hope I can tell you more over a drink or a boat ride sometime, but I must be brief for we are headed for Hart's Crossing (perhaps try and send a missive there--write that I am a member of the Wandering Wyverns). I do feel like I might be closer to finding my true purpose in this life.

Before I depart, I wanted to write and ask what you knew of the dwath'jafar. During my travels a dwarf named Bun'varr approached me and said I appeared to be a member of the dwath'jafar--a culture of seafaring dwarves. I always thought I was just a water genasi, but perhaps the dwath'jafar hold a key to my past. I would be grateful for any information on the dwath'jafar that you have and if you think I could somehow be a part of them.

As always, please let me know what gossip you hear along the rivers, and give my love to our friends. I would love to hear any news, big or small, about them. Has Errel finally begun to court Sapphira? Perhaps my meddling was not helping that situation.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Love,

Rivulet

I'm angry

I'm angry. And I don't (at the moment) want to be talked out of it. I struggle, often, with expressing or even just sitting with my emotions. I feel like even the photo I chose for this post was more reserved or toned down than how I feel.  But, this is my trying. I'm not going to time this post, just going to write until I feel done, whenever that may be. In this post, I'm going to focus on the anger I feel around my dad and my dad's death. Though, don't get me wrong, I'm also angry about a lot of things going on in my city, in my country, and in the world. My dad chose alcohol over me and my brother. There is no way around this fact. Yes, when I am less angry, I can be more reasonabl and recognize that addiction is a disesase and he didn't have control over it. But, right now, I want to be angry. I want to get to be angry. I want to get to feel my feelings. I don't want to rationalize, I don't want to be reasonable, I don't want to be fair....
