Day 18

I am found.

Was with Lyra and felt clear for a moment but it was all for naught. When I went it was too late body rejected and expelled. I said so early on the colour of course the colour and red and green everywhere and then everything was over.

Had to run grabbed log in forest now. Writing because I am not sure how much longer I can go I hoped I could hear the hive as I ran from town but I cannot. There is nothing.

The trees are thick and I don’t know where I am and the sun was too bright but now nothing is bright I can hear them please Mother help. I was good I did what was right I tried so hard Mother please. Hear me when it is so silent don’t let them take me I don’t want to die.

Don’t please they’re closer please take this and tell the hive what I have found let no one else suffer this fate stuck. Can’t move body giving up finally giving up it was a miserable shell in the first place. I can hear their voices she’s brought others and they are closer I am sorry I am sorry I
