Poem in the Margins

by Fryd Wrenbrook

*Fryd scribbles in his journal on a carriage ride from one place in Waterdeep to another.*
 
Zara
Oh, Zara
 
*He scratches out the lines.*
 
Gorgeous half elf maiden and the pride of Waterdeep
I'll scribe for you these stanzas
and pledge to you my heart to keep
 
*Fryd scratches out more lines. He can't shake the dream from the possession. He can't shake memories of battles with monsters and the undead. How could anyone come to rely on him? Some just aren't the type to settle down. Fryd thinks that he might be that type. He asks himself how he fell into that trap.*
 
Pauper princess
sacred owner of my soul
what need have we for food
when we've love to fill our bowl?
 
*Fryd scratches out more lines. He puts his face in his palm and leans against the back corner of the carriage interior. He hopes in vain that his stately mind-linked chum from the realm of fire isn't psychically eavesdropping. This isn't going to work. Nothing will work. Fryd tells himself that he has too many shortcomings as a person. He tells himself that he has too far to go before he feels comfortable accepting even a modicum of happiness. He has things to reconcile with Mizzana, probably. He doesn't know how he feels about Mizzana. Zara hasn't ever been particularly warm and welcoming, either. Fryd feels like he sensed something there. He wants there to be something there. He isn't sure. He admits that it's probably nothing. He admits to himself that Zara would probably hate any stupid poem that he wrote.*
 
*Fryd rips the page out of his journal, balls it up, and throws it out the carriage window.*

Legions of the Dead

We dispatched the shambling corpses that attacked our camp. I was quick to avenge our driver, who fell victim to the hunger of the rotten fiends. I regret not kneeling to stop the flow of blood from his grievous wounds, but I have no real experience in ...

11:01 am - 30.05.2022

An Opera, a Farewell, and a Job

We attended the opera. It was amusing, seeing the others dressed up in noble garb. It wasn't as amusing seeing a bunch of self-important rich assholes gathering for the opera. It's cause of one to wonder: do they come for the opera, or do they come so ...

10:23 pm - 13.04.2022

Gutbuster

Gutbuster is a foul and dangerous liquid. I don't know how the dwarves do it. I guess we were trying and failing to make contact with some ghost in the cellar when we found it. I knocked on the barrels that were left down there, hoping to find somethin...

10:46 pm - 21.02.2022

Anything but Halflings

I received some good healing at that temple of Ilmater. Luckily, the clergy there also agreed to help our new friend Keplo so long as they received money sufficient enough for the spell ingredients. Scorch also inquired about having his memory restored....

How Can I Be Expected to Earn a Living While Also Following an Ethical Moral Code?

So there I was, surveying the warehouse I meant to rob. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a dark figure with a shock of white hair dart into an alley. It was a bad day. I wanted to get to the top of a tall building to get a better look at the warehous...

07:05 pm - 02.01.2022

Kidnapped?!

[The first paragraph has been written in Fryd's usual manner of using the common script.] Construction continues on the manor. Lately odd things have been happening. Representatives from various factions around the city have been initiating contact w...

10:04 pm - 18.10.2021

Ghosts and Wine

Our days, as of late, have been filled less with high stakes adventure and more with high stakes financial dealings. Our group has been further discussing what to do with the manor, drawing up budgets, and meeting with important guild representatives. W...

04:02 pm - 16.10.2021

Trollskull Manor at Night

We opted to spend the night at our newly acquired manor. I was ill at ease about the spirits that potentially haunted the place, but everyone else seemed to be in a good mood. After having a look through the place, we decided to go out into the city for...

10:47 pm - 30.09.2021

Coming Clean

One thought replayed intensely in my head as I crawled out of the manhole to sully the street with the foul slime caked onto my leather armor. My skin itched and I had the taste of 1000 random people's shit in my mouth. I needed a bath, and I needed it i...

04:12 pm - 24.08.2021

The Fucking Cat

I'm glad to be leaving the sewers. It was no fun down there. Things started out alright. I led the way with my lantern so that the dull-eyed among us could make our way through the foul-smelling labyrinth. It wasn't long before we ran into a creatur...

11:24 pm - 20.08.2021

1492 5/5-5/6

I woke with a clear head today. A rarity, in this era of my life. Who would have thought living on the straight and narrow would be so difficult? Certainly not me. You'd think I know better considering how well read and intelligent I am. If I only ap...
