       Father was always peaceful.  He gained the inn from his father.  Never been in any fights, just worked in the inn.    Now, father had me.  For many years, I have worked in the inn like him.  Same thing as father, I never seen or been in any fights.  I just worked in the inn like father.

   

       I was tired of this life, always working in the inn. I wanted to see the world and have a better life.  When I turned that age where boys become men, I spoke to father.  Father let me leave the inn, but he said if I cannot find a job come back.

     

  Now, I am here looking for a better job.  I have heard rumors but none of them are true.     A few weeks have passed, and now I am ready to come back to father. What will he say to me?  Father please understand that I have tried my best to get a better life.

   

       The day before I left to come back to the inn, sad news arrived from a friend.  The friend that a killer came and killed father and burned down the inn.  I cried for days and thought about my life.

   

       One day, when I was crying, I saw a lady that helped me to get better.  Her name was Mel and I deeply fell in love with her.  Now, Mel was another bard like me and we started to sing songs together.

   

       Father now can you understand that I have a happier life? You should of branched out and found a better job and maybe been safe.
