Gossip from Beyond the Grave (Theo's Journal)

Theo's new journal is an ornate little book with thin gold inlays, probably purchased for more than it's worth from a stall in Rimmen. There's no telling what's happened to all his old, unfinished journals by now.

What a good day to have a crisp new journal. There's so much to write about--so much that I almost don't have the energy to recount it all. I wanted to go home tonight, but there's no way with all this bandit nonsense going on. Leaving everyone to their own devices to go relax would look pretty bad. Honestly, I foresee no sleep, anyway. It's one of those days.

Let me start over. Hi! I moved again. I live in Elsweyr. We're "squatting" in a dragon-ravaged town that some desert trash apparently own, though there was no trace of them upon our arrival. So they're angry with us. I tried cutting a deal with Anjra, the big man of the group, but I seriously doubt he'll honor it. I just wanted everyone to see that I tried the peaceful approach first.

That Seiverin is like a tubby little piglet. It makes me smile to see some genuinity (is this a word?) in this place. Never change. Estre will never know how much like her father she is. It scares me a little bit. Evil looks good on him, but her face is too pretty for it. It looks... too contorted, with the lack of emotion. I suppose an ugly personality goes well with a set of fangs, anyhow.
