Journal

Ice Day, looks to be noon: It has been approximately one day since…well; I’d rather not write it down it’ll only aggravate the memory. I despise the maws but that had been unlike any…well, to call it a trip would be ironic. Tomas’s assertion of a great astral presence was correct. I felt as though I could produce magic I am otherwise incapable of due to…limitations. Inna said something about control and me not having it. Now I’m rambling.

Besides that I have very little I wish to write, except that I would perhaps like to return. I keep hearing about libraries and books I haven’t read. It is a temptation. I am in Jeuno now, which means this travesty is coming to an end. I’m still ambivalent about talking to Tema. I was able to lose her through the maw. But I haven’t heard of her since, was she lost to the void?

Now I’m senselessly worrying. If she can survive a death sentence then she can surely survive this? Or did she use up all seven lives?

But I must go. It looks like rain and I would like to reach Batallia before it sets in.

Notes to self: You’re running low on parchment, put in an order.
The lower story window and shutter have been replaced back in Bastok, be sure to pay the fees.
Merridew wants her cooking pots back.


Late evening, what is today's date? Tema has finally married, a relief I'm sure for her. Perhaps that is why the edge has come off? Though it did come as a surprise, I do wish I had been invited, or at least warned. Oh well. Hopefully the fish hasn't rotted through the bucket back home.

I'm not usually one for group meetings, but I'm curious, I'd like to meet more of these ladies and gentlemen. A step in the right direction, Tema would say, in staying put and not running off. I would like to try, but with little connection I find myself wanting to stay even less and less. The foul mouths running day in and day out are...well, I can't even begin to say.

Perhaps it's time for a visit home.


Lightsday, Midnight I've been returning home more and more these days. It is still difficult. Now and then I run into old school friends, and though I can recall their names, families, and faces, they do not remember me. Has it been nine years? A boy I knew back in primary three this last week passed away. He had gone AWOL late winter, turning up dead somewhere in west Jugner forest. I didn't ask for details, nor did I attend any sorts of ceremonies. I did pay his family a vist before I left. They were good neighbors, always lending a hand even if theirs was crippled considerably.

His mother seemed reluctant to speak with me when I told her who I was. Perhaps it was my armor? I knew I should have changed before attending a mourning couple. Missus-across-the-way tells me each visit I am looking more and more like my mother. I wish I had more pictures of my parents, but the latest is a family portrait taken when I was very small.

The home, as I've mentioned, is properly repaired and paid for. The repairs, that is. As of now it is very neat and habitable should I decide to return. There are only a few rooms, big enough for a small family or a couple. The only furnished room is the room I've chosen to use as a sleeping quarter. I borrowed a blanket from Tema's home to cover the windows so no one looks in. I must invest in some small curtains.

It is generally avoided, I've noticed. When passed, that is. People cross the street. Ghosts are very real, but my father was a kind man. He would never haunt anyone.

I'm not sure what to think of everyone. It seems as though they are doing their own thing until it all comes down to it. Feels less like a family (to me) and more like an informal and uneasy partnership.

Anaris (???): Met once, I do not know him by name but he has a formidable presence. Caught me one night doing something most despicable, I do regret my carelessness that eve and have been careful ever since. Upon further investigation he seems far less austere than I would have liked to believe.

Armonde: This Elvaan seems older than I first imagined, it's been awhile since I've heard such enthusiasm. Though I think because of Juri's meddling things may be a bit awkward between us despite no offense taken at his words. I wonder if he is close with his mother?

Ashtari: I met her briefly in Kazham while visiting Tema at her new home. The night, while a mess in general, was quite frustrating. I had forgotten her name entirely that I had to ask Miss Tema later in the week. This miss is devoted to her job but I think she might be a little too serious even for a Mithra.

Chael (Scared): Chael's words frighten me, even more, that I would believe him. His stern callous behavior reminds me of another such person. He says strange and cruel things, his dislike for Miss Tema seems so...Understandable, especially after talking to Sulfig. Our recent encounter has left me mighty confused. I don't know how much more I can take of this. I would rather not talk with him again.

Chi: (Worried) At first I'd thought I'd gotten myself into another awkward situation, with another mithra no less, but I was glad to see all she wanted was to speak privately. She would appear to be more level headed than her sisters, but doesn't lack that certain er....charm, shall we say. I don't believe either of us were feeling our bests that night, but I'm a bit worried. Isn't that strange? If our past bonds hadn't been a familiar point of discussion would I feel the same?

Chibine: I've fought with her on the frontlines with Miss Jen and it was quite the challenge. Not one for formalities she spoke with no barriers between us, like a comrade almost, catching me off guard. I'm glad I could rely on her strength and assist her from the side lines, but sometimes I wonder if she would some day like to talk about something other than troop movements and which unit captains are injured. Ah, I'm not quite sure what to say. I don't think anyone has been quite the same since that evening in the Hall of the Gods, Miss Chibine more so than others. Though, I hope someday she'll come around, a little less cheerful perhaps but...Hmm.

Drahcir (???): A gaunt fellow; he seems young, but he acts very private. He doesn’t like to be called sir which is very vexing; would he concede to a compromise of Mister or perhaps something more…ostentatious?

Gemini Heart: It almost felt like looking in the mirror, do I sound like that as well? She was a bit awkward to comunicate with, however, I think we could make common ground. I have passed along to her a token of my childhood, my first trophy of war. If it weren't for the punishment I received for stealing those I might have become a pirate. I hope she'll like them, and that they might aid her in some way.

Hideo (Fear): This man is infuriating, if I had it in me to be cross I would. His views and iron hold on past ideals creates a large generation barrier. I wonder if he’s just stupid, or to a lesser degree, just stubborn. For the wrongs I've committed upon this man, the guilt and paranoia torment me even while awake. It is something I try to forget, but am unable to. He is terrifying, and a horrible excuse for a living being. What could make a person act like so? We are not so different, yet how could the very same path lead in so many different directions? I'm not really quite sure what to think of him anymore. I don't trust him at all and I'm still a little worried, but he promised a fresh start. Though, at the moment, I'm not really sure I'd like a fresh start. It wouldn't be very smart to go around making friends with that sort. However, I don't think I would be able to tell him that.

Jayden: I'm not sure I trust him, but like Misters Hideo and Sulfig I pity him. Anyone who can laugh easily with the likes of those two is surely no better. But I saw him with a child and a lady, his family? I may be angry with his dirty tricks, but I am not heartless enough to harm them.

Jen (Like): Miss er....Jen appears to be quite kind, if not a little too fond of teasing. Quite persistent in fact. I think she would make a fine salesman. I'm a bit jealous, however, of her career. In having it that is, makes me realize how many of these people have actual jobs and don't get by on selling and trading for meager earnings.

Juriri: A friend of mine who I haven't seen around much until lately, she hates the idea of studying and I cannot force her to sit with me to do so. Sometimes I wonder if she's taken one too many hits to the head in her attempt to become stronger. Or was she always like this?

Kogenai: I recall telling Miss Jen that I had absolutely nothing to do with this person, but if I recall, some really hazy night, having quite a nice time with him and our er...'friends'. Although I shall never drink again (muttering) even in memory I'll remember he was kind.

Korevont: He's a bit childish and has a quick temper, rude as well with no sense of personal space, yet touchy at the same time. He's quite brilliant, though sometimes I wonder if it's his unhappiness that's eating at him or some sort of personality disorder. It makes me wonder why I enjoy his company so much.

Mimi (worried): Miss Mimi seems quite young and I'm worried over her current state. Surely she must be smarter? Maybe there's a way to get through to her? Perhaps if she's fed properly, the entire time I was speaking with her she tried to eat...things. Note to self, remember to bring some sort of fishy gift.

Sir Robin: A scholar like myself. He and I had a lovely time looking through Miss Chi's book collection, even one that was quite peculiar. Hopefully neither of us will meet the same end as the Scholar who made a mistake, or something of the like. He's quite...normal, which is a blessing. He has promised to lend me his dictionary, I hope that I might have something he'd like to read as well. Or, er, something like that.

Sowilo (unsure): She is fierce it seems, that axe looks awful heavy. Seems nice, though I think that is the last time I ever say anything personal in front of a Mithra.

Sulfig (Dislike): The last memory I have of this man was waiting for a mutual friend and picking up his unrealistic tab. If anything the experience taught me to pay and leave first. He seems to remember me a little but I refuse to acknowledge this anymore than I have. I used to believe he wore the pumpkin due to his drunken state, but he seems sober now…Or immune? He is more kind than I would have liked to believe, a little immature but I did not expect more or less. I don't know why I am so kind to someone so eager to take advantage of another's (albeit hidden) suffering. He can sure finish his food, perhaps I will invite him over again. If not, get better protection over Miss Tema's home. Within the past month or two something has happened to Sulfig, stress, some of us thing...Hm, regardless. Empty threats or no, I can't take him lightly. Even if we were smart enough to leave well enough alone in the Hall of the Gods, I don't believe I can share the same space as him without resorting to begging. Anything.

Tema Windsong (Nothing): Tema reminds me of a mother figure; perhaps that is why I rebel? I feel a great attachment that is very difficult to deal with. We don’t quite see eye to eye with how to deal with things. It hurts me that I find myself unable to return to face my sure punishment. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, so they say. Tema, as of late, has been acting mighty strange, if not her gifts to me, but the sudden urge to write me onto her family tree. I'll be sad to see her go, but that only means I need more distractions. You can't simply reset your life.

Tie (Unsure): She seemed quiet, but kind. I could like her. Perhaps.

Tomas (Like): It has been quite some time since I’ve found an equal in scholarly pursuits. He has an unfamiliar accent that is easy to pick out. Seems friendly enough, his dream of a Dhalmel farm still makes me smile. I’m a little envious of his simplicity.

Tsumi (Unsure): This miss is quite stern and blunt and I am ashamed I can’t even recall or even begin to imagine how to pronounce her entire name. She pulled me off a wall quite suddenly I was shocked to be reminded of this one aunt in Bastok back when I was a child who would tell us not to sit on the low wall while fishing. It’s a bit frustrating but I’m sure she means well, even when it’s probably not her business. I hope her premonition was incorrect about Sir Korevont though. Despite what I had said, I’m not quite sure how that would really feel.

Nice entries.

Arm- lol. Yeah Arm might be a little akward after that day with anybody who was there. He doesn't hodl anything against Dida though. The last comment wondering if he was close to Tsu was great.

Crysta- Though not mention directly she's in the post about Jayden. Heh heh.

Rob- Normal? Well she doesn't know about the whole messenger of the avataars business but at least he made a good impression.

Tsu- This one still makes me laugh. Dida was stumbling on the ledge when Tsu grabbed her which is pretty remarkable for her to pull Dida back. If she does it again Tsu won't help her though lol.

Even if my weak former self gets in the way,
I'll turn to face reality and vanquish all who oppose me!
I'll keep searching for what nobody can see,
For Love, with these two wings of Freedom and Solitude
I'll keep chasing after it with the power I have
I know someday I'll attain the dream, that transcends sadness!
