28/07/24 - Session 46
Found the gang stealing from street performers in record time and people have been so impressed with how fast we get things done. As they should be. We don’t just sit around and talk about it unlike some people.
A paragraph on Janatimo has been scribbled through angrily.
ANYWAY. Knocked one robber out, nearly got another but then Cualli got clubbed unconscious so I had to get serious. Killed the next and Malnar did some fiddling with locks but by the time we got through the door the leader of the group had already been killed by someone else. Neat work too: through the spine to paralyse, across the face to disorient, limbs removed, and a partial decapitation. Professional. I was kind of impressed. Hopefully the elf we took alive will be able to tell us what the fuck is going on and if it’s really the work of that frog gang.
It’s becoming clear to me though that I need to get even stronger if I’m ever going to reach that dragon, never mind defeat it. And maybe the school isn’t doing enough for me at the moment. They’re keen to encourage diplomatic solutions and “personal development” which I get but I could be more likely to find the strength I’m looking for with other groups if they can pull something like today off.
…
The druids said there was a right way of doing things though and I don’t want to lose what I have. So maybe it’s not worth it. We did find a lot of gold this time which might help and maybe this fancy party will actually do something too. Although I don’t trust the gleam in Illiara’s eyes when she heard about it.
Whatever. I have more important things to think about than fancy clothes.

Remember: ask Ignasi where he got that hangover potion from because it’s been very useful so far and I’m going to need more of it in the future. Took Chizire out drinking with the Chime Ringers to cheer him up and it worked. At leasat, his mood was de...

Nearly single handedly propped up a whole house so the others could do some fancy magic and repair the bank under it today. It was that pottery shop we visited before with the chime ringer, apparently Wet passed on a message to Cualli. We’re really star...

Not a lot has been happening over the last couple of weeks, not since that last big fight. Didn’t have to draw my sword once so it must be pretty thirsty by now. Prodded the others into doing some research into the snake people – they’re not bein...

I don't think I'm going to sleep tonight. The day started off pretty good. We had a ton of breakfast and were assigned a stretch of tunnels to examine while the teachers stayed safe on the surface. Co-ord-in-a-ting they said. Suited me. Ulawa said our ...

Finished my mask. It looks good, more intimidating than a lot of the others. I mean really. Cats, foxes, rabbits? I keep staring at the light on Illiara's though. The ceremony took such a long time to get through everybody, I was getting restless sitt...
11:03 am - 27.01.202311/12/22 - Session 17
I forgot I was writing in this. It's been a busy couple of months. Talking to people in the city was getting me nowhere, either nobody knows anything about tunnels or snakes or ghosts or they don't want to tell me about it. Except for Malnar, who just kee...

Tournament was fun. Kind of a clusterfuck. We only came second but it's not like our victory had been decisive in any way so I guess I can accept that. I carved those leafy constructs up pretty badly before one managed to knock me out, it must have wanted...

I had a dream. I remember all of it for once. No fire, so it must be like the other one, the one at the ruins with the upside-dow rain. More of an omen than a memory. There were a bunch of blobs I couldn’t recognise and they wouldn’t be intimida...
11:59 am - 21.11.202206/11/22 - Session 14
[i]With friends.[/i] That's what Illiara called the group when I woke up. Is that what we are? I don't know what friends are supposed to do, never needed any. I guess they patch each other up. She and Malnar had ended up taking some damage for once, pe...

Being a teacher seems easy. You stand around talking about stuff you know for a few hours a day and get the students to find things or research for you. Why bother cleaning up the bugs from campus when it could be a ‘learning experience’ for others. I...
