A toil, a trouble, a-double

12th Kythona, 184, ED
----------------------------------------------------------
 
Fortune, somewhere under the city uh Phandalin,
 
A tieflin' findin' new powers to handle'n,
 
Tried a'dippin' a toe inta the world of magic,
 
And somehow I planted the whole sandal in.
 
 
Goddamn I suck at poems.
 
 
 
Tuh-day ain't too bad, eh? Lotsa numbers. We ain't too hot wit' numbers as fars as groups go. Goddamn I'm 'bout ta ask the one 'ats good wit' numbers, Flicker, tuh maybe teach me 'bout some Dock-You-Meant writin' and maybe some higher number calculatin'.
 
Anyway. Coin acquired. Dock-You-Meant transferred. Gamblin' attended tuh. Tielfin' wrangled. Dead City located. Floatin' armor vaporated. Successful day, by all metrics.
 
 
 
Also uh... I's decided that I's gonna keep a runnin' journal on each uh my compatriots, as I ain't know that much 'bout 'em. 'Parrently they's the heroes uh Phandalin 'er some fancy shit, not just dumbasses I's along with.
 
 
 
NEW PAGE - Labelled with a big, fancily written word in the center of a word map: WOLFEN. This page contains a poorly drawn word map with the following words scrawled on it, and tied to the name in the center.
 
Orphan. Sneaky? Ginger (Circled repeatedly and forcefully)!!! Vengeance - Linked to the words "big angry but hidden deep?". Silly. THUNDERWAVES (This word has like 8 underlines and covers about half the page)!!!!
 
The top right corner also has a really poorly drawn cartoon version of Wolfen hiding in a barrel.
 
 
 
NEW PAGE - Similarly labelled: FLICKER. The word map similarly starts in the center and links to the following words. Flicker's name has a rose drawn poorly underneath it, as if to underline the name. He clearly spent too much time on the rose and the word map is a little unfinished, with lines that link to no words.
 
Nature. Bear? The word 'patient' was originally written, then the prefix 'im-' was added after the fact in heavily drawn font. One of the words linker to Flicker has been repeatedly crossed out so as to be a massive black mark and substituted with the word 'terrifying'.
 
An unfinished drawing of a cartoon bear is in the bottom right corner, sitting up, and very clearly hugging the outline of the bear is a miniature version of Flicker, burying her face in it's chest and failing to fit her arms around it in a mini bear hug.
 
 
 
NEW PAGE - Word map starting around the word: EETHYL. This one is pretty straight forward, but the cartoon drawing of Eethyl in the top right corner is absurdly short and the head is absurdly large for the body, attempting to grab a spotted mushroom from a rock he's too short to reach. Linked to Eetyhl's name are the following words.
 
Seen 'im at a loss fer werds exactly at sundown on 12th uh Kythona, 184 ED. Gnome? (With a check mark next to it) 6000 words per minute. Frog. Genius? Dies first 100%. ROCKS EVERYWHERE.
 
 
 
NEW PAGE - Word map labelled with the word: KETH. The name is written well, carefully, moreso than the others. A rather well rendered, exact, and perfectly shaded version of Keth's face takes up the right side of the page, and the word map holds the left side. Keth's portrait is realistic, though his smile is soft, and bright, a sight which may have been more from Fortune's imagination than anything else. The following words are linked to Keth's name in the word map.
 
Half-orc. Pretty. A scrawl of Infernal words details out a small paragraph off to the side, followed by the words "Encourage him?" (The infernal words are 'Бесхребетный, но мог бы быть могущественным, если бы ему было наплевать.'). Neverwinter Guard. ASK ABOUT CULT (circled repeatedly).
 
 
 
NEW PAGE - Word map labelled with the name: DAMAIA. Damaia's page contains three progressively more fiesty angry cartoon faces that bear resemblance to the tiefling. The third face is spitting fire out of it's mouth. The map contains the following words.
 
TIEFLING BUDDIES!!! Alcoholic? Sailor (Linked with an arrow to 'Alcoholic' next to it). SMASH. A note off to the bottom left of the page says 'Must be wrangled at all times.' The bottom right corner contains a tally mark set, one labelled 'Tails' and the other labelled 'Arms.' Tails has one mark, Arms has two tallies. The word "Jealous" is scribbled out right next to the tally marks for "Arms".
 
 
NEW PAGE - The word FORTUNE? has been written in the center, and is, as of yet, blank.
