Today I spoke to an old elf who said her grandmother is from a city placed in the center of Melidon Lake. I think these ruins have mostly been lost to time and I feel they should be discovered and documented. Any way, this elf said that tomorrow she will do an interview with me.

I had my interview with Mylaela today. It was very interesting. Basically she was a little girl when the city was destroyed so although she has some very specific memories she did not understand why it happened. She was told that the people had a relationship with a supreme water being who the city eventually angered. In its anger this water being sunk the city. She gave me an approximate location. I am going to go out in a few days and see if I can find anything.

I am staying in a tiny city on the shore of the lake. It took me a few days to figure out how to dive, the locals use this small mushroom that allows them to breathe underwater for a few hours at a time. I did not find anything today. I hope to try again tomorrow. Unfortunately, it is the end of fall, I do not have a lot of time before winter, the water is already almost too cold.

I tried diving again today. Nothing. I might need more research to pin point the location. This lake is vast.

Still nothing but I feel that I am getting closer.

I spoke to the village elders to see if any oral traditions have been passed down. They were not too happy that I am an outsider looking for this city. I think I convinced them that my intentions are to document and preserve. I hope I came across that way. One of the elders spoke to me privately after this meeting and gave me a more precise location of the city.

I went for a walk today to clear my head, in the forest I came across a strange out of place swamp. As I continued to walk a magical fog engulfed me and I came face to face with an ancient elf. He asked me a few questions, I guess I got the answers right because he took me to his ancient library. Here, I told him what I was searching for and asked if he had heard of this city. He allowed me to study some old maps. I think I can find the city now.

I found it! I can't believe I actually found it! The city is vast, most of it has been destroyed. I spent today mapping out the buildings that still stand. I would like to explore them more in depth but I need a better plan. I saw some large shapes deep in the ruins, I don't want to be taken by surprise.

I recruited two adventurers to help me today. I think their underwater fighting skills will come in handy. I think today is our last day of exploration. The water is just too cold. Hopefully I will be able to start again in the spring or summer. Any way, we opted to search the temple today. it seems to be dedicated both to Deep Sashelas (Elf God of the Sea) and a water elemental. How strange.
