Episode 1. Thus it begins

Dear Himo,
 
I hope you and Orik are doing well at the Temple. It feels like I have barely left to start my quest, but I miss you all terribly already. As much as I know the relic is sacred and must be recovered, I cannot wait to be back with you all. I feel foolish for being so homesick without having even left Lavatisbra, but I promise to do my best and make you all proud regardless of my feelings. I was told I am acting with Bahamut's blessing, and so I will see this through.
 
Do you remember Noyade Crowfeather They are still with me :) I have also talked about Alaric Kerensky and Rolando de la Vega in my previous letters, and we have formed a sort of team now. I should perhaps stress that we have, in fact, been made official adventurers of the guild, and we were sent out on our very first mission not that long ago.
 
It was an interesting mission: we were sent to fetch a mana crystal, but the owner of the crystal would not relinquish it before we had taken care of a problem of his. It turns out he had a painting he needed help with, and it is not like we could just leave without helping, so we assisted and returned with the crystal.
 
At the end of it, however, Noya was gifted with an amulet by "a little birdie" which seemed to unsettle them. I hope it is not the past that it is coming for them, for I will not let Noya be dragged back to misery >8C
 
Give my love to Ileana, tell her that I miss her a lot!
 
Bahamut's blessings,
Sirimiri
