Korranberg Chronicles - Theatrics and Mothers

Oh lordy my sweet darlings, you know that saying history repeats itself? Well by the gods that almost certainly happened to y’all favorite writer! Could y’all believe that yours truly was almost a prisoner yet again but to Giants this time! I swear I went the entire war and not once did it ever come possible for me to become a prisoner but being in Xen'drik I guess it was just bound to happen!
 
But y’all should have seen the elaborate ruse we put on to escape, well from what I heard it was very theatrical. Nathaniel put on a show with his magic showing multiple illusions of a chucky green dragon we’ve encountered but I must admit that Tabitha and Damian really stole it when it came to their theatrics because even though I was over 500 feet away I could still hear their screams of fear from this illusionary dragon as they were pleading for their lives.
 
Why may you ask, was I so far from the group during such a show? Well someone had to release our boat from its magical container and sail it so the others could jump on and of course I was the man for the job! Can always depend on me to get the job done! Who ever said a blind man can’t sail a ship never met the likes of me before!
 
Though sadly our little act did end up taking a bit of a toll on our lovely new ship, not by my hand may I say. However, thanks to our dear friend Zavian, such a lad, and his wonderful lessons I was able to use my new skills to repair our girl! Not only that but Damian has come up with some add-on ideas for the girl that soon I’ll be trying my hand at coming to reality.
 
We weren’t the only ones that were full surprises this week either, I’ve gotten the most wonderful letter back from back home. That is right y’all mama wrote me a letter and thanks to some amazing magic I was able to hear her voice for the first time in years. It just warmed my heart, even more so when she called Nathaniel a “hoity toity elf” when I told her about everything involving him. Of course, like all mothers she was already asking about if Nathaniel was keen on adoptions and asking about grandbabies. The man and I have only been together for a bit over a week like we’ve had those discussions yet! Though it was definitely a nice needed laugh and reminder that no matter if I’m continents away she will always be my mother. Till next week my dears!
