Memoir of a Gifted Stonemason
What an honor it was to receive a personal request from King Dorephan to craft a historical stone monument!
I did not realize how much content he'd give me, though... It certainly exceeded the line limits of a single monument.
I suppose I could have just shortened the text, but it felt wrong to tamper with our great king's words.
Thankfully, I was able to split it all between seven monuments to ensure that every word was preserved.
I have always prided myself on my ability to think outside the box. I am so very adaptable! And humble as well.
While I was at it, I thought...why not add two of my own? And so I created one for King Dorephan and one for Prince Sidon.
True, this is outside the scope of my commission... But I believe their triumphs deserve as much! But why stop at that...
Why, indeed! My achievement surely deserves remembrance too. That is how a commission of one became 10.
Of course, having increased the number of monuments, I had to find places for them all... That proved difficult.
Still, it is worth it! So long as I remember to sign these monuments, my name will be remembered forever. As it should be.
