Excerpts From the Diaries of Methos (c3)
by comet

This entry is on a page that has started to yellow, not unlike the other
pages.  The pages are tattered and worn as if they have been read over
and over again.  This passage has been translated from an old dialect
of  English just to get rid of those annoying "thees" and "thous" and to
make it easier to read. This passage is dated November 800 A.D.

I am headed towards a castle on a hill to visit a friend I have not seen
in years.  Some people wish to think that I and her are more than
friends, but it has never been so.  I have realised that friendship is
sometimes more important than a romantic interlude.  Because of this, I
am not sure if I would want to be more than friends, for if our love was
to collapse or fade into hatred or something else, then I would be
afraid that I would lose someone who understands me sometimes  more than
I understand myself.  I know that her  life has not been easy, but I
also know that she would have her life no other way.  She has always
helped those that have needed help, whether our kind or not.  I come to
see her now, for I have need to talk to someone and I know she has no
student at this time.  Also, I know she will understand what I am going
through, for we both have seen the passage of time and know that once in
a while we need to talk to one of our own kind in a place where we are
safe. I will reach her home by the time the moon is full.  For now, I
will enjoy the lovely English countryside and ponder the future.

           Rebecca Horne, Ramirez)
