… has been shaken up a bit this week.
This week was the Volturi Meeting. It had been so long since all of us were in a room together. The meeting was held by a Cais’ brother, Marcus – a new Master(or at least new to me). I had this strange feeling. I knew every single face there – except his. I have a feeling deep down that I am supposed to know who he is – that he fills these gaps in my mind that are missing… Am I losing it?
The meeting progressed with an annoucement of Renata’s new development. Her shield has changed a bit and she can reach into our memories; and remove them. A fleeting moment of recognition enters my mind: Is this why I am missing parts of my recollection? Was I an experiment? And did memories of him vanish?
I look over at my brothers in arms, and can see the same looks of confusion on their faces…
Something went terribly wrong with all of us. So wrong that Renata’s shield changed and we had all been ordered to forget it… I can’t imagine what could have shaken our resolve so badly. Part of me wants to know so that I can be prepared… So I can help ensure that our guard never be so irretrievably broken.
But part of me is scared to know. I can’t imagine what could have been so terrible that I would have asked Renata to wipe it from my mind entirely…
The Guard has been healed from whatever the malady was that struck us. This is the most important thing I suppose.
The Santiago, Demetri, Felix, and Corin have been sent to the states. Renata and I must deal with a problem closer to home…
