    • Good chat with Keth at dinner. Glad he trusts me. Surprised, but glad. Says to trust Eethyl. Bossman hasn't steered me wrong yet. Will talk with the gnome tomorrow, then start fresh.
     
    E gave me gifts. Not even our Remembrance Day. Trying not to be suspicious about it. Some people just...give things away...for free....with no motives. Keth says Trust.
     
    Sefilwyn can do hair! Didn't know how to ask for ages but the opportunity presented itself and things worked out. Maybe ought to take more risks sooner, could have had a fancier nest this whole time.
     
    Amarille is even scarier. In a good way. She showed herself to be strong at the burrow but now she's showing her smarts. Says she'll teach me how to do hair too. Never bothered with this sort of thing before. Sef and Mar are upper crust ladies though. Gotta try to keep up. Keep it together. Keep us together.

    • Less than stellar morning.
     
    Wolfaen didn't answer his door. Longest travelling with anyone. Hope he's resting well, didn't slip out in the middle of the night somewhere. Left his gift with Toby.
     
    Eethyl seemed annoyed at my question. He kept imagining I was asking more. Always bad imaginings. No benefit of doubt. Can't blame him. Says he'll keep us safe as long as he's able. Gotta be enough. Trust. Fresh start.
     
    Beyond that first hour - Best day in a LONG time. Lil owl friend flitting around, crisp breeze through the field, soil between my toes, no dangers or threats, no one talking to me - for the entire day nearly! But knew they were around if I needed them. Alone but not alone. Felt at home. Hope Qeline finds her yield satisfactory next year.

    • Still no Wolf; running errands. And playing pranks, the scamp. I oughta tie a cowbell around his neck one of these days. If he sticks around. If not, appreciate the time we had. Wonder if he liked my gift.
     
    Gave Keth his bookmarks. He seemed distracted, but still thought to get me something too. He seems the type to always have people around him; surprises me that he took up celebratory measures on the occasion.
     
    How many shrubs make a thicket? Can shrubs be friends with each other? Can shrubs be More than friends with each other? Consult an arborist.
     
    What is Gwar? Such a precious beast, never seen anything like him. The gnome mentioned that he kept company with a variety of beings. This one at least I like.

    • Arrived at Falcon's. He's as handsome as Elsie described and as terrible as I imagined. Wasteful combination. Lovely grounds at least. Hard to imagine it's all sustainable if he accepts payment of only a couple bottles of wine in exchange for quarters, meals, and said wine.
     
    I think he said that centaur, can't even remember his name, so unimportant, Zan something probably, whatever, stupid, whatever, that guy, I think the hunter said he talked about me. Is that what he was saying? What was said? Was it good? Did he say good things?
     
    I tried to ask Amarille her thoughts but she's a sealed vault. I won't spend any more time with Falcon, can't ask him to elaborate. Not that I care. Why would I? ....Stupid Xanth.
     
    Sef swooped in to save me again. She's so much like gran it's almost on the line between comforting and troublesome. "Stupid Animals" Falcon said. Forest full of forage and he pursues a crawling elk. Stupid Hunter, I say. Had Corwin not been so amenable I'd have no mind to eat dinner. Glad Sef's getting the nice room tonight; deserves some proper rest.
