With a groan, tired limbs lifted Radek from his bed, squinting at the new day.
He walked over to the window looking out over the tree tops of Yew and remembered fondly his service in the militia. He remembered Bladius' quick wit, heroic leadership and annoying talent with both mace and crossbow. He remembered Gotrek, as old as the trees of Yew, as sharp as the axe that fels them. He thought on; what he had been through, who he had buried, who he hoped he would see again. Radek had been feeling nostalgic for some time, with his children older now he had more time to himself. He had taken out his old cap, his badge and a few other prize possessions, but to what end?
"Just do it already! How many times a day will you stand and fondle that badge?"
Radek stirred; "Huh? - Oh.."
His day dreaming had been rumbled by his second wife, 'Stocks', a retired guards woman, mother to Radek's children.
He knew where it all was, his armour, weapons, kit.
"Maybe, just maybe.. "

"Right decision, there's purpose again."
Radek packed his kit up and set off for Stonekeep.
Nostalgia flooding in as he ducked under the branches of trees that became more and more familiar as the miles ticked by.
Straight into duty after a long rest following the war, eventually Wilkes sat down and began scribbling in his neglected journal.
"Straight to it! Welcomed back, a quick catch up with now Sergeant Lynx, informing me that none other than Gotrek is now Captain. He looks good for it. It was like I'd never been away, straight into a line up, off to Destard. One of the Fathers made our lives a little easier giving us quick passage. I'm not sure if we have got better, or there has been some plague hitting the reptiles in Destard but we cut through everything in there with very little problem. Perhaps due to a lack of trainees running off, not bandaging or losing all of their kit.
Good to be back, a little rusty but we'll get there.
Right decision, there's purpose again."

Rade.. Radek Wilkes, Sergeant Radel Wilkes, Sergeant Wilkes, Sergeant
Sergeant Wilkes, Sergeant Wilkes
R. J Wilkes, Sergeant
I still don't know how I should sign it! I should definitely be able to make these decisions by now. I couldn't then and I can't now. Sergeant though, good to hear that following me around again. In other news the shorter hair and beard has gone down alright, no one has ran away in complete disgust yet. Larynda was close I feel, she tried to be polite about it. Failed, but she tried.
Must write in here more. Diplomacy is crucial at the moment, it feels like we are fighting for Cove's affections with Vesper.
Tragic.
