Bhat Jahnhassan's final letter. Document in Adijari | World Anvil

Bhat Jahnhassan's final letter.

Dear people of Adijari,   My quest is over. I spend my time now reliving it in my head and in my dreams. The joy, the sorrow, the pride and shame, the exhilaration and loss. I have seen so much of this beautiful world of ours. It is my wish that you experience it as well through my writing.   Oh people of Adijari. I have been so greatly blessed, but it is a blessing I do not wish on anyone, for it has come with such pain. So many of the friends I made along the way died unjustly. Heroes who deserved better, and yet for all they sacrificed for, including myself, would do so again. I think in the end it was it worth it. Though there were failures along the way, we did it. We stopped the world from being destroyed, at least for now.   Dear people of Adijari. My writing of The Champion Saga was not just to help us with the challenges we faced then, but for all the challenges to come. I am nearing the end of my life now. So much of it has been spent with the Ganesha Pen in hand, telling not just my story, or the story of the five Brimhurs, or even the story of the heroes and villains in this epic. It is a story of us- you, me, and everyone else.   People of Adijari, it is a false narrative that we came together through this story to save Adijari. We were always together, and it is illusion that we are separate. Removing that illusion is all I did. Qui-lahks kindred to the animals, ameshas of the earth, elves of the atmosphere, devs of light. We may celebrate our individuality, but should not abandon everything that unites us. We all have hearts. We all bleed. We all are born from our mothers with traits of our fathers. We all experience our range of emotions from sorrow to delight, and we all have our foibles and merits. Long after I pass, I will still have more in common with you than you might be ready to believe. When I die, I will be known as a great man. This will be attributed in part to having a fifth of a goddess in me. But what of my other four fifths? After all my deeds, these four fifths are equally as great, for it is through deeds that we evolve. Who is to say there is no goddess in you? I was simply blessed to be made aware of the divinity in me early on. What I have learned with certainty, is that there is divinity in you too, and you can hone that divinity through action into greatness, or into waste. Choose greatness, people of Adijari. Enjoy who you are. Know your good and bad tendencies, and master them, so that when your time comes as mine is coming now, you will pass blissfully from this world, content with all the people you blessed through your courage and kindness.
