13th day of Ont'kan
Entry Thirteen

It has been nearly a week since I've seen a human face, and it brings back vivid memories. Sometimes I think of the night I left the tribe after Ahkil's death, and how I fell ill the very next week. It was only then I truly realized I was alone and would have to do all things by myself. I had a fleeting desire to go back, but I knew better. I'd be killed upon returning. The start of events that brought me eventually to a nice looking Inn, and to Cricket. Each thought seems to turn back to her, no matter what the subject is.. all the same with Ahkil. It will be like that forever I suppose. Two very special people plaguing my thoughts. Upon truly accepting she's gone, I had considered returning to my homelands. It would be interesting to see who is now leader among my peoples, and maybe by now they no longer harbor ill feelings towards me. In fact I'm sure they'd be more curious than cautious to see how I've been doing, to see how I've grown. I know I sometimes wish to see Anazeh and others. Many of the elders once agreed with Ahkil, that I would make a great leader. His goal was to stay strong until he could see me assume a position of such, but of course old age kept him from hunting.. and I care not to relive the memory. It is the children I grew up with that are now in power. The ones that followed me like lost puppies wherever I lead them. But I've gone off track. While considering returning there I came upon the Cidaea Woodlands. There is where I have decided to stay instead, at least for awhile. Some say its haunted, but I have yet to find evidence of that. Stupid men, there is nothing to fear but the fiercer animals that keep to this particular area.. More dangerous than most can handle, but I've seen worse. You just has to know how to protect yourself from them. So far I've been lucky in that respect, but I need to leave now and go to the market for provisions. I'f I'm going to be here as long as I suspect, I'll be needing a few things. Ta'kienta.
