Werde Ich jemals frei sein?

by Bricky von Wallenstein

Sie Groupe was quick to get into ze cart after sie incident with Lincoln. Ich took it upon meinself to drive sie cart with Bogbean at mein side. Sicher und Zusammen, zat is wut matters. Ich concluded, sie woods would be sie “safer” option as sie world was dying behind us. (Mir tut alles leid)
Poor Tobias, Ich know not of sie full importance of sie city of Arnkonka, however Ich can only hope zat some would be left. It was painful to think zat their was nothing, nothing zat Ich could have done to have prevented zis. Tobias will likely never forgive this und Ich don’t think Ich want him too. (Ich verdiene keine Vergebung) Again Ich have been sie puppet und again sie Puppeteer has had his way. (Werde Ich jemals frei sein?) Bogbean was quiet, either sitting beside me or moving around sie sides of sie cart. Ich wonder how she feels about zis? Ich sah sie hesitation when Ich offered mein hand, she ist smart. Ich feel as if meine friende ist slipping away, like Sand in a damaged bucket. Tod would be more preferable zan sie shame und loss zat ich feel. Ich hope she know zat Ich was trying to hilfe her, Sicher und Zusammen. (Ich wollte den Stein nicht) But with sie stein still present, she will not trust meinself with it.
 
Ich push on despite mein kampf to sehn in sie dark, although Tobias must have noticed mein langsam speed und decided zat Ich needed assistance. Ich have never seen sie world quite like zat. Sie colors und shades were soo crisp und vivid. (Ich frage mich, ob er die Welt so sieht?) Ich eventually halt sie cart, shortly after hearing what sounded like sie off-loading of something heavy. Ich was informed zat Tobias was unable to save Lincoln.
 
Despite sie time of day, sie groupe was exhausted und required some rest. Ich decided zat Ich would collect supplies, as they slept. Mein Jagd was successful und as Ich returned sie groupe was waking up. Ich would appear in mein absence zat Katzen survivors had passed through und had been provided aid. Tobias und Luna again showing ihre value. Sie groupe was debating one which route to take und which destination was more pressing. Zie were of kleine concern to meinself. Sie stein, Ich had to know. It took some convincing, but sie would eventually let me “touch” sie stein. Ich could feel sie pull, und Ich I touched sie stone, Ich felt it, sie presence. (Wie sage ich es ihnen?) Luna again forcing me to explain a protokalle, one zat even Ich don’t fully understand. All Ich know fur sure as Ich explained is zat sie stein is “very valuable” und zat at sie very least Ich had no immediate need fur it. However zis sparked another line of questions. Sie wanted to know what colors meant. Not to my surprise, Sie were not entirely thrilled with sie answers.
 
Sie groupe finally decided zat sie docks und traveling by ship was sie best option und after preparations sie traveling began. We did our beste to collect what we could along sie way. Poor V und Drexla, clearly sie could not find a meal or firewood in a wooden hunt with schweine if their lives depended on it. Alles gut, as Tobias was sie Jägermeister. Ich have never seen someone collect so much in such kleine time. Sie traveling was thankfully uneventful.
 
After arriving at sie port town, sie same one zat we arrived at, Kal-Marha Ich believe ist called. We schnell decided zat sie carte was coming with us und devised a way to load it onto sie boat. It was quite odd to sehen V und Drexla soo determined to collect sie heavy planks when neither of zem are “built” fur it. V was struggling at zis point, it appears zat somehow he randomly get struck by lightning. Ich decided to take him aboard his vessel to ensure his safety, but not before asking again fur his name, Varanus. (Ich verstehe jetzt, warum er sich V nennt) It was decided zat everyone available would aid in maneuvering sie carte across sie docks und onto sie boat, easier said zan done. Ich tried to be nice und encourage Bogbean, ist seem to work until we got to sie gangplanks. Fur a moment Ich thought zat we would fail as sie carte was testing everyones stark, as well as sie planks. Ich though back to Castle Isenstadt und when things were not going well, Ich would sing fure sie other Genate. Ich found meinself singing to Bogbean, about her stark und will. Ich am not sure if sie song made a difference, but we did complete sie task. However not before slipping und falling into sie ocean. Ich didn’t know zis but it would appear zat Ich can’t swim very well. Luna was able to save meinself from sinking to sie bottom. But she seem more annoyed when Ich told her zat Ich would have simply “walked” to shore. We eventually set sail und left sie port town of Kal-Marha behind. Drexla had in this time not only been trying to find her place among the crew but also to show off her impressive knowledge of waffen und upgrades. Her first display was quite impressive, however sie second one has possibly goten her on sie top of a kill list of a red und dangerous crewmember. Scheisse
