i feel...ashamed
i did what i needed to to survive, i know this, but having to tell the crew was. . .unexpectedly painful
the day seems to be filled with unexpected pain
first there was Moldal, we have discovered that our gorgon friend in the sewer is his sister.
then there was Pellangffyn herself, refusing to see her kin for fear of the pain her truth will cause
and then Naafoora. . .while i feel a great joy at this validation upon being right, i am also burdened by the fact that if she is here then it is possible the Madame has already established a network. . .however there is also the possibility that the newspaper is simply making this up but perhaps they only have this simple kernel of truth among the lies
regardless now we seem to be overrun with half-truths and secrets left to uncover
i am not for certain how we are to convince an entire city that we are to be trusted. . .or even why we should bother when we could always just leave
but the others seem to want to. it is important to them that the truth is told
and they. . .they do not seem to judge me differently upon knowing parts of my truth
and. . .and i find myself caring more and more about their happiness and well-being
so regardless of the present and future dangers that us staying here presents, i will do what i can to best serve them
