Help!

On a dark and stormy night (cliche, I know :) in the spring of 2011, some dark creature entered my home and made off with my muse. I'm positive you all can imagine how it's been for me. Sleepless nights. Days spent wearing a hole in my carpet as I pace back and forth, waiting for word. I don't know if she's alive or dead. I don't know if it still has her, huddled in some dark corner of a musty basement, cold and hungry. Or if she's now free and too frightened to return. I did not protect her as I should've. I did not keep her close as I should've. I failed her.

If any of you, my sweet and dearest friends, know of her whereabouts or anything connected with her disappearance, I am pleading with you now...please, tell me where she might be or what happened to her. And if you happen to see her, crossing some bright sunlit street in some faraway place, tell her I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be so careless with her. I need her. And I want a second chance.

We had such beautiful times. We rode horses through the forests of Luminor, where one tiny breeze could blow the blossoms from the trees and surround you in a fragrant vortex of pale pink and white flower petals. We boarded a giant ship and watched the Earth perish, consumed by fire. We learned secrets of the spirit world and fought a demon together. 

And I know there's so much more. So much more that we are meant to do. 

I tried doing it alone, but trying to open up these places in my mind without her is like trying to travel through time and space without a Time Lord and a T.A.R.D.I.S. 

Impossible.

So please. If you can help me, I would be most grateful.
