waking up (sort of)

((Reposting))

My dearest Sara,

Let me just get this out of the way to start with. Yes, being not-quite-dead is unpleasant. In fact, it really and truly sucks. But I am determined to not let this get to me, as it seems to have done to far too many of those around me. Sitting at the inn in Brill makes me want to open a vein that would yield little as it is...they whine incessantly about what they've lost and the Unimaginable Darkness of Unbeing.
