Titles and a Keep

by Never Nestknitter

I asked the Everlasting Flame to help us to cure Abby. I didn't know if it would work, me not being special to her like Abby is and all. But I did ask on his behalf. A feather floated down from nowheres. I don't know if it was a sign or what so I grabbed it. I touched Abby with it and nothing happened, so either it's just a feather, or I wasn't supposed to grab it. I'll hold on to it though. Maybe it will bring us good luck.
Since tickling him with a feather didn't work, Arc and I took Abby to the temple. They fixed him for 1,000 gold. Well worth it to get Abby back.
 
The town was grateful that we saved it, so everything at the inn that night was free to us. Abby and I took good advantage of the free drinks. I don't remember much of that night.
 
Anyway, we eventually got back to Swiftrun, where I was supposed to await contact from Blaghin. They were real happy with us and called us the Six Friherr of Swiftrun. That's a real high honor. They are also building us a keep. We even get to have a hand in its design. So I guess I'll have a third place to call home.
 
A squire found me and told me to meet Blaghin at the Fluffy Bunny. She was a little annoyed that we managed to get Abby fixed and didn't tell her. I guess she was going to fix him herself. I didn't even know she could do that! She seemed happy enough to be at the Fluffy Bunny though, so I think it's all OK.
