Today was such a good day. Elaine and I were walking through the woods. She looked so beautiful under the light trickling beneath the canopy. I am getting off track. We managed to escape our duties. I welcome days like today. I will never be able to thank Elaine enough for getting me to start keeping this journal all those years ago. The thought that I might ever forget the moments like today is enough to still my heart. I am off track again, I feel so giddy right now, moving along. I heard the cries of an animal while we were lying about in silence. We both immediately moved to investigate. It was a wolf pup; he was trapped in a snare. Luckily, he was not too hurt, Elaine healed him on the spot. He has taken a liking to us. I cannot stop smiling, he is with me now. I have named him Sif.
