Sixteenth of Solae, 1485
I believe that it is the wee hours of the morning as I write this… I didn’t actually write what happened yesterday as I normally do… I was too deeply entrenched in my various thoughts. Mostly that I’m wondering if I made a mistake by coming to this city… and especially by participating in that farce of a qualifier, for what is likely a farce of a tournament…
It was bad… to borrow the language patterns of my human companions, it was a ‘fucking shitshow.” First, we didn’t have a full team, so we had to pick from two rather poor candidates - one was a woman who only had rudimentary magic, the other was a child. Albeit a talented child, but a child nonetheless. Needless to say, we chose the adult… and the shit just got worse from there…
The important thing is that we made it through, we won our match. But, Grimaldus was right about this place… someone (likely our opponent) bribed the judges to change the rules in the middle of our match. It was an absolute clusterfuck. We still won, of course, but Grimaldus was right… Wei Jang is a shithole… with perfume covering up the stench of corruption. Don’t get me wrong, I know that officials accept bribes all of the time - but that doesn’t excuse changing the rules of a tournament in the middle of a match.
Fuck this place.
Now, Inira mentioned something about possibly becoming a vampire… I can’t deal with this shit right now…
I was wanting a vacation, that’s why I agreed to come here in the first place… well, that and my curiosity about Grimaldus, if I’m being perfectly honest with myself - something that this city seems incapable of being… but now I feel like I need to go home for a little while to get away from my vacation… I really should go see my parents… I’ve been thinking about them a lot lately, maybe it’s all of the shit that’s been happening recently… either way… I’m ready to leave this fucking city…
