Until we meet again

[Reckoner]

Hi everyone.

I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately, I've been looking into some things that have needed my undivided attention. Unfortunately it's not over yet, but at least now I have time to send you all a message. I've had the honor and pleasure of meeting, and even working alongside a lot of wonderful people here. I think that despite the odds and how it may look, you people help keep the battle lines from spilling over from the shadows to a panicked public completely unprepared to deal with such things on a regular basis.

To be honest, there hasn't been a lot of call for me here lately. And when you're not needed, that means you're doing your job right. But if any of you need me, just send me a message and I'll try to get back to you ASAP. And no, I don't plan on dying before I come back here, I still have at least one obligation to fulfill.

Until we meet again my friends.

You will be missed. My garden grows well, in fact you could say "everything is coming up roses."

When you return, I shall be waiting with a refreshing tea and the keys to a garden your gift has made special far beyond the capabilites of mere loving cultivation.

Follow your calling, Mr. Reckoner and may Amaterasu light your way - I will await your return or the coming of the troubles you warned me are coming.

Thank you my friend. I look forward to it, and promise not to let myself die before coming back one day!
