Oh my goodness, my head... Did I really have that much to drink? I hope I didn't cause any problems for anyone...
It's strange, my head is throbbing and yet I've remembered some more information about the world I came from. It seems paper mastery wasn't the only ability that people possessed! There was a wide range of special powers back home, although they weren't especially common amongst the populace. Some people were known to hold control over things like cloth, fire and even light! Some could even pass through solid matter! It seems that many of these people came from families of mixed heritage like I do... people who didn't exactly fit in with one culture or another. I wonder if I've ever met anyone with a special power, paper mastery or otherwise...
[Private, hackable because OhMYGOD head hurts]
Some people... respected us for our abilities. Even held us in esteem for them. Others... I suppose it's easy to fear a person who holds a potentially lethal ability that one doesn't also possess. But... to go as far as to believe that we sold our souls for those powers? ...No wonder my father was concerned for me. I... oh... just because a person holds the power to do harm doesn't necessarily mean that they will. I wonder what became of other people with powers like mine. It's rather frightening and my heart hurts for them. Regardless of what we could do, we're still just people...
It's sad and rather confusing... I need to stay positive. I'm sure for every person who feared us, there must have been a person who was understanding and kind.
