We met with Count Peranza today, he gave us each 70 gold and gave me an ornate bow, that had a rune on the handle that has since been etched into the back of my right hand. We then went to the Glade again to visit the people who dwell there and Dlowyd was nowhere in sight, presumably grieving understandably in his tent. I handed Vaemocalwyr 10 gold to give to Dlowyd, I guess to help me cope with my feelings, I'm still not over the fact that V might still be alive. We then went to the Queen in the Thicket for payment, and she gave us Story fruit as she called them. They allow us divine, is what I've gathered. I gave mine to Francis as compensation for using his likeness while in the glades. We've set off again by 9 am, for another few days.
