The Valley

Oh how I missed this place, once more I walk this valley. However lush and beautiful it is, I know I can't stay here. If I do, I would not leave. I burned this place to the ground last time. I regretted that choice, the consumption. The rage and inferno igniting the sanctuary. I will not allow that to happen again, I would control it. I should still leave, since it is only I who remain. This valley is my safe place, but I cannot find what I seek here. It would be wise to allow my sanctuary to grow. To thrive without me. For I too must move on, and leave this valley for my return.
