A message from the underground...

So some of you may have been wondering where i have been over the past few days. Well, if you thought i was in danger, then you don't need to worry, because i've just been locked in a cell in the basement of the old church across the lake by those crazy monks i have been dreaming about. Now i know it sounds bad, but they're actually an alright group, if a little strong in their recruiting drives.

Anyway, the reason i haven't been able to write anything is because i haven't had my laptop, but it was delivered to me last night by a girl in a monk's robe who had a beautiful voice (i am sure i know it. So very sure!). She passed it through the one little window near the roof of my room. I couldn't see her face because it was so dark, but she said that i reminded her of someone she used to know a long time ago who she lost, and she thought maybe she could help me. She said she would contact me via the laptop when the time was right for an escape, to which i replied 'ok'

Also, she brought me a muffin which was really great. It wasn't really as fresh as i am used to, but all i've been eating here is a kind of rice porridge, which is a bit bland. I don't know how she knew i liked the muffins, but i sure was thankful.

So the other night, when i answered the door, three monks were waiting for me and one of them must have drugged me beacuse i woke up kind of disoriented in this cell. A monk called Jared was waiting for me to wake up and he told me i was lots of trouble because they had tried to catch me before but i had run off because i had not been sedated enough, and i said i didn't remember that, but he said it didn't really matter anyway, and that he wanted me to join the monk community. He said i didn't have to answer straight away, but that if i said no when he came back i would be the star in their 'festival of fire' celebration, which sounds like fun to me. I told him i would think very carefully about it, because i didn't want to sound rude straight off the bat, what with them giving me food and accomodation and what not.

Over the past few days i have been keeping myself occupied by doing exercises like push-ups, squats, and various stretches. I have been out of the training loop for a while, so i fear that my recent muffin addiction may be killing what little physique i have. It has been quite good so far; i am able to do fifty push-ups, which i think is good for me.

I am really sad that i missed my date with Celes. I think she will totally not want to speak to me anymore because i stood her up. I was really looking forward to seeing her other sketches too. I have been looking out the window in the mornings and wondering if she will forgive me when i get out. I hope so.

Blake out.
