    It was helpful to go over notes left behind. Nice to have an axe beak help with this watch.

    Long travels today as well. Fantastic inn. Will be nice to rest without waking for watch once I'm done writing.

    I did not know Twin knew my name. He called me my birth name at meeting. He wrote Sprout in the trees. I wish I could keep it there. Ought to be erased. I will return and do so soon. I must return to check on the webbing as well. An infestation of monsters must be destroyed. I cannot say if I will return to do so with help. Such a task falls within my duties alone. Perhaps I can return with hired help or favors owed. Timber returned this morning to the forest. Hope he gets needed rest. I appreciate his understanding. He had a grasp of burial purposes. Not everyone does. Nice to discuss one day. Had Chief asked me in private I could have spoken at length. Not the time nor place there and then. It was a difficult morning. No sign of a body. "Raiya" footprints were there. They were recent. Travel was uneventful. The night has been quiet this far. Been ages since meeting an axe beak. Good watch companion. Signed Sprout.

    Easy day of travels. Always a thing to be grateful for. "Juni" seems to be thriving despite less than ideal conditions. Town has a companion waiting for her. I hope we can return there soon. These things are heavy. The bag waiting for me will help. Information waiting for me is of little use now. Still. Always of value despite utility. How long might we stay away before they think us gone? Dealer might be dangerous if she thought that. When will she run for town leader? New sending stones would be helpful. Leave one with Innovator again. Speaking of. This is a nice inn. We - I - should learn more about it. Always good to have a place to stay. Where will I stay when my debts are repaid? Return to that town? Find a new one? If the gods be not unwilling that I make it that far. First I must repay my life debts to Chief and Redman. Then to right the wrongs done to Light. Doing so will fulfill my druidic duties Twin spoke on. Then? Was "Venomfang" the one I sought after? If true then comes true freedom. Signed Sprout.
