...I...am now conflicted on how to respond here...

On one hand, I'm inclined to try and survive as long as possible and continue my utterly futile attempts to escape out of principle and desire to remain in character...

...on the other hand, my utterly insane contemplation on having a Hearthstone adventurer as my next character is rendered useless...

On the other hand, the labours are essentially ended now whether they end or not, and all is meaningless...

On the other hand, I wish to try my best to keep this character living on in song and story...

...

...

Blast.

I hope that even with the changes going on in your life that you're doing alright man. Take care of yourself.

?

What changes?

There have been no changes in my actual living situation or life. My being forced to abandon The Twelve Labours and The Final Hazard was due to other events, outside the scope of this subforum but within the scope of the actual site, which preclude me from operating as a contest moderator. I am still an active roleplayer.

@Terminal

Oh. Sorry, the way you worded that...

Nevermind.

I hope you do not mind that I decided to give Fortune's sword a fitting end.

But...the ground vanished...

...While I suspect that we would have failed this stage of the challenge, I consider the manner of Fortune's death, the various enemies that he killed and the allies that he saved a victory!
