Being here, I miss my wife. Marian was [...] hard-headed, but she was also one of the most loyal, brave, and kind people I know. Her loss has been felt for over a year, and I wonder sometimes if I should ever "get over" her. But I do know this: she would not care to see me brooding as I have been for so long, or throwing my life towards people who are toxic to me and to Nottingham and the outlying villages, Locksley included. Here, she would be entreating me to include myself in the community, getting to know you all while I contribute my share to our welfare. I still grieve her, but there is no point in wallowing in that grief, to allowing it to dictate my thoughts and actions, to keep me from gaining new and trusted friends. I thank you all for the patience you have shown me as I have kept to myself. I am ready to be amongst the living now, and I hope that those of you who are struggling similarly will choose to join me.
Now, I am told that there is a book group that meets on Fridays. I've always enjoyed a good tale. Would I be welcome to join you this eve?
