Fightin some orcs

Today I had a duel with Anguitami, a friend from Dragonshire, but he cheated so that my kick to his back didnt hurt him and so he kinda won, but not really.

After that some orcs appeared and attacked after supposedly kidnbapping the princess. Luckily she was ok and I went out to help Morrolan and my other friends stop the orcs from taking the castle. It was pretty easy even though I did get a tiny ouchie on my side.

Stupid exalteds

Porsha came by to visit again today and she's getting married soon to Ryta, who I don't really get along with but I'll try. Or at least I was going to try. A stupid pantheress has been murdering people left and right. I fought her once and nearly killed her but some demon creature helped her escape saying about how he'd make her behave and such. Yeah right!

So she came to the castle again and I sent her to the dungeons. She said she was worried about her cub so I brought the cub to her. However when I got back she had escaped and was about to attack me and Porsha. I pushed Porsha out of the way and there was a big fight and Ryta appeared and helped out and we got the cat to the dungeons.

I tried to thank Ryta but she went into her exalted-supremacist mode and did nothing but insult me and Morrolan. Porsha made me appologize to her and try to make up but the idiot wouldnt even apologize to me for coming in and starting so much trouble. Her and Porsha stormed off and I sat down to rest a bit. Solaris decided to kill the pantheress and I couldnt do anything to stop her even though I hate to see people take life.

The night wound down after a while and I posted a notice that we're going to go hunt for a red dragon thats been taking up residence nearby. Rachael offered to join in so now we'll have a pretty good party. Oh, and I also got to see that Griffon from a few nights ago but shes being nice now.

Battle!

Today was pretty eventful. I got in a really huge fight with this guy who came to attack Solaris. I was just minding my own business when I felt something evil going on and went to the hall.

A guy using holy energy was trying to kill Sol and her sister and there was just one barbarian stopping him. So I jumped into the battle, nearly but the guy's staff in half (he was a fellow wizard) but in the end he used some sort of magic to overload my mana and I made one last big attack against him before teleporting away to disperse the energy.

Anguitam popped in to take all the credit but we all did our parts, especially poor Thorn, the barbarian I mentioned. He got it the worst out of all of us.

Good grief!

That crazy angel guy returned and gave Imoen a baby. We sat around for an hour trying to figure out what the heck to do with it before Velrik finally came and got really mad. I went and sat down to eat dinner and by the time he was done the kid was gone and him and Imoen went to bed. I really hope this craziness stops so things can get back to something not unlike normal. Velriks even worse now when hes mad than before and Imoens so sorrowful and stressed its just not as much fun.

After they went to sleep I went to Dragonshire and argued with Willow and then I freed one of her thralls from a spell with the help of a guy I met named Anguitam. Mes pounced on my sister and I hit her over the head and now we're not friends anymore. She kinda changed and I don't think soe liked me anymore anyhow.

Seeing Velrik again

I found Imoen in Sanctuary and hugged her and all and we were talking and hanging out with my friend Marik when some creepy whiney angel guy showed up and started complaining about how horrible life was and crying. He was even worse then me when I'm sick! However I did manage to ignore him long enough to poke Imoen mighty hard for gettin me in trouble while I was little.

So Imoen went off with him to make him feel better and left me all by myself -pout- So naturally I followed them and when I found then the guy was all getting snuggled up with Imoen who was looking obviously uncomfortable. And then Velrik showed up.

He almost got ahold of the guy and would have leveled half the forest if I hadn't intervened. I soon found why he was in a bad mood. Him and Imoen were driven from Kielder just like me. I tried to lighen the mood a bit but nothing helped even though Maik offered to let them stay with him. Finally I just left them alone. I wish things would get better.

Goodbyes

I can't even write the entirety of what's happened for fear that it will fall into the wrong hands. Just keeping this diary alone is dangerous but I care little. With the aid of a friend I was able to dawn on a disguise that was seemless and infiltrate my mother's funeral at the home from whence I am exiled.

As I expected it was packed full of people and the sun was going down to provide me with further cover. The things I wanted to do! To cry for my lost mother and home, to embrace my surviving and faithful kin (who even then stood unaware of me) and to strike out at my foul enemies. But I could not reveal myself, for I was unwilling to break the peace of the event, but had I been recognized my enemies surely would have done so in their cruelty and malice.

And so instead I lurked on the fringes, disguised as a human female so as to ensure that I would not be discovered. I paid my respects silently and gave her one last gift of flowers. I miss her terribly...

YAY!

Imoen appeared today while I was surveying hte land from ny tower and I SWIFTLY WENT TO SEE HER. Oh how im issed imoen and Velrik! I recalled not all of the tussels between Velrik and myself, or my near fatal fight with Imoen over Ariel. Nor did I remember a harsh word ever spoken between us.

I think its safe to say that Velrik and Imoen are both certainly members of my great extended family and I love them well. Velrik regretably wasnt able to make it but I'm sure I'll see him soon.

Imoen was skeptical at first that I might be dead. However I really didn't care, the first conceern was to make sure that she didnt feel bad for my mother's death. The second of course was to hug her and the third (yet to be realized) is to get her back for messing up the treehouse and blaming it on me!

Imoen ran off, persued by some evil being and not wishing me to be harmed so I let her go, content that she knew where I was and that she and Velrik could handle most anything. I went to Dragonshire afterwards and hung out with Sol for a while before retiring. Sol's really great too and she's like a sweet older sister. She always calls me sweetling which never fails to make me blush.

Damned Romanians!

The day started out pretty normal. Mes had been beaten up by the magi who are after her and they asked about me but she wouldnt tell me what they wanted. I got mad and stormed off after Solaris healed her. My efforts to rescue Arric aren't going very fast either so I decided to go to another time and just see what I could see.

I ended up in Romania and, going into a bar for a glass of chocolate milk, I saw a rather evil looking vampiress scaring everyone. I challenged her and we threw spells around for a while. Another vampire came in but didnt seem at all worried by our fight. I was soon to find out why.

She invited me to visit her home and I calmed down and followed. There were people dying everywhere and all sorts of general evilness. I saved those that could and attacked her but she was too powerful and old and I could do nothing. After tossing me about for a while she tossed me through a portal and finally after a great deal of effort I found my way home.

Starting for a quest

There were a lot of visitors to Maerimydra today and one of them was this huge dragon lady but she was nice and we played for a while. Another lady came to visit and she seemed very curious. She was asking about Kane's death which is something I prefer not to get out to avoid panic. However when I told her I wouldnt talk about it some lunatic appeared and demanded that I tell her. I'm not sure if the person knew about the drow or not.

I finally got rid of her and then Sasha came in. Shes really broken up because Erdrick hasnt come to see her so I took her to find him in Dragonshire. He wasnt around and she went to bed. I stayed up the rest of the night talking to Sol and snuggling with her. She and I met the first time I came to Dragonshire and she was kinda mean but so was I but now we get along fine and she held me til I went to sleep after telling her about my plan to rescue Arric. I think she's going to come along so soon I'll have a big enough party.

Meeting the enemy

Still no word from Velrik or Imoen. Also no word from Athena. It seems everythings just falling apart, shredding around me. I miss Nic, and my mom, and Vel and Imo. and Ariel is hardly around. Raethis is worried about her and made me scry for her last night but I think she'll be fine. I still dont know what happened to my mother.

Anyhow I saw the Drow Matron today and she has Arric but wouldnt bargain for him so it looks like I need to mount a rescue. To that effect I climbed to the top of my tower and used a powerful spell to help me see beneath the earth so I could find an entrance to the underdark.

A friend of mine named Rena and she seems very nice. She agreed to go with me to rescue Arric so it looks like I need to start recruiting now. I went to Dragonshire in hopes of finding Erdrick, but no such luck. Instead I helped them put wards on the castle and that was kind of fun but it made me pretty tired. Carey came in and looked after me and I felt a bit better with her around so maybe things aren't too bad, though as I've said, exile sucks.
