In the night, a message arrives for young Yves St. Laurant-Seaway.
Later, those who were near when he read it remember his face paled and his young slender hands trembled.
With a war-kit typical of long journeys, Yves is last seen galloping south out of camp.
Captain Jayne Green is the one to find Yves resignation; a simple letter, written in hasty hand.
Valourous Comrades,
Each of you more inspiring than the next, I am leaving the immense shadow of your deeds and riding into a shadow of regret.
Miles to go before I weep.
This is my final salute to you all.
Yves SLS
