Blargh...

This has been one of the more trying days of my life. For one such as me to say that it no doubt conjures up images of torture and death, huge armies clashing, and magical duels beyond imagination. That is hardly the case.

The day started out when I found the woman I thought to be my ressurected mother in the forrest. I asked her about this and she seemed to be playing dumb. She claimed to be from castle Dracon in the year five hundred, under the reign of some queen named Amauril, I think.

When I went to leave she said I knew too much and she'd have to kill me. I politely requested to be burned at the stake and she decided to drown me instead, which would indeed have killed me had I not put up a fight. We battled for a bit before Mar came and distracted her. At that time she'd sunk me into a mire underground.

The mud wasn't water so I couldn't cast underwater breathing, but I thought fast and used an iron body spell since that relieved me of having to breathe anything. Once I'd had time to build up a meteor swarm I hopped out and fired at her but it bounded off her shields. However with two against her she got annoyed and ran off as I struggled to keep the meteor swarm from harming anything in the forrest, especially Mar.

We took a walk while I explained what had happened, and Mar was just generally being mean to me the whole time. She's gotten so distant and rude lately it's terrible to see her. She did finally apologize and explain that she's trying to push me away so she won't hurt me if she loses control. She's having a lot of problems now relating to the death of her parents.

She also said she was moving out of the tower. At that I was stunned and I went quiet while we went to try to find Ali, but she was grumpy from her pregnancy and just blew me off. With my two favoritest sisters being mean to me and Siona nowhere in sight as she has been since forever, I just slipped off to the tower and curled up and cried. Marquie leaving really got to me more then anything, as did the fact that theres nothing I can do to help her...
