Missing Familiar (Frances' Tale).



Goblin hunting.



I've ventured into Norwick with intent to hunt goblins.

Familiar didn't come, so it was a short trip... I didn't find him, but i'll keep looking.

-- Frances, familiarless a witch.

P.S. Bloodstains on robes and leathers do not give up easily.

Light a Sundial.

Dear Journal,

During a Night i like to light a Sundial, my Artistic way to tell people to pay attention... to which hour it is.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Cerulean star 1st.



What is Mythal?

Dear Journal,

What is a Mythal?

It's more dangerous than it seems.

When i was in Cormanthor, i've accepted a service to them.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Cormanthor initiate.

Descent (Anheim's Tale).

fugue plane - a guide, Cassius.


i was drifting away into oblivion, losing memories and emotions... such is how a fugue plane affects lost souls....

.... Then i've seen her, Chea Allin, telling me to give crystal i had with me since a birth, to the guide, Cassius....

then i walked through mists, descending, closing toward the warmth of Norwick and Temple of Chauntea, where i awakened in a way, and found lost equipment...

but i have no crystal anymore.

-- Anheim, returned from the dead.

equipment worn...



----


* equipment went to the Temple of Chauntea in Norwick thanks to AubreyMaturin and his character, Shesarai. After server reset it would be gone.

** other character in fugue is Ozborn, but Anheim failed to recognize him due to nature of the fugue plane.

*** in a real Buddhism, practice for making dead reincarnate better is called 'Phowa', but i do not understand how it really works.

Ruined Tower.

Ruined Tower.



Dear Journal,

i've investigated Ruined Tower, remains of a Peltarch's Defense Tower in such a state since N'Jast War.

Why it's not cleared yet?

Probably because of the cost or perhaps more.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Cerulean Star 1st.


P.S. After short talk with local ghosts i've found a clue to reaching for Anheim, and perhaps bringing him back.

Astral Dates.

Dear Journal,

i've met Anheim in Astral Space. He went there from a fugue plane. He'll stay there, in fugue, for a while but will return if he can, for it's not sure if he can.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Astral Witch.

Fugue Plane.



Near Norwick, i've died, due to bad weather and a slip during combat (computer crash).

Now i am in Fugue Plane.

-- Anheim.

Dear Journal,

i am looking for work.

i'll be out till Saturday*.

Nice (Anheim's Tale).

i am trying to be nice.

to protect her, to fight, so she does not suffer from neglection.

for neglection is also a sin.

-- Anheim.

Assassin Kobold (Anheim's Tale).

I was contacted by someone named Ozborn, a priest of Mystra and ordered to spread information.

He was attacked by 'nastiest' Kobold Assassin, and after it was defeated they found a note with 'Koperz' on it.

Perhaps it has something to do with 'Shiny Coppers' at Oscura?

Young Peltarch noble was also with this priest, but 'due to shock he forgot his name'.

-- Anheim.

Lies, Corruption and Religions.

Dear Journal,

i've noticed some patterns.

i think that Lies and Corruption are main problems of Religions and result in a Sectism and a Schism.

perhaps that's what happened to Mystra, and that's what will hold her in future.

i'll investigate.

Yours, Chea Allin, Seeker for Truth.

Silver Valley - Garl Glittergold's Holiday Teahouse.



Dear Journal,

Trying to find the Truth, i've visited place where Garl Glittergold's Holiday was held.

Tried Kebab, Ale and Torti Fruit.

Listened to a tale about lioness and a deer.

Learned about Garl's Relations with Selune, Mystra, Savras, Cyric and Tiamat.

Deciding i won't find what i seek there, i left... turned Invisible and went on boat to Peltarch, trashing remains of food and ale on my way.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Seeker of the Truth.

Faerunian Gods: Cyric, Lord of Lies.

Dear Journal,

i should mention Faerunian Gods.

First is Cyric, Lord of Lies, Strife, Intrigue, and other...

i should investigate him, especially his Lies aspect.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, seeker for Truth.

Isolation.

Dear Journal,

Narfell is a fairly isolated place.

Judging from my experience, and i have such, abuses happen in such places.

Why?

Perhaps because space is constrained.

I'll try to understand it better and share.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Philosopher.

Law Inquiry.

Dear Journal,

i've written a letter with an Law Inquiry to Peltarch Officials:

---

is it legal or not to polymorph into a penguin in Peltarch Commons?

i've used my Cerulean Knight Authority to make ex-senator Marthoussca reveal herself after such polymorph attempt.

warning was enough for her to cancel her spell.

-- Chea Allin, Cerulean star 1st.

How to use Identify Spell.

Dear Journal,

How to use Identify spell if you follow Enlightened Energies, and work with Forms of Energy and Light?

Imagine Enlightened Energy associated with Wisdom, such as Vairocana, then Identify with Him, Casting this Spell like that. Or with Saint associated with Wisdom.

Then you will Know where this leads.

You won't regret.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, follower of The Enlightened and Sorceress Mage.

Deal with Totem Spirit (Cirden's Tale).

They say Spirit tolerates no mistakes or errors.

They say well, for Spirit's strength rises with Shaman's.

Every deal has to be worded carefully, and words heeded and upheld.

Spirits can offer wisdom and power, as well as help and aid.

They can fight or heal, grant and enhance abilities or teach how to cast spells.

They can be summoned or appeased if you can see them and talk.

There is spirit world parallel to ours.

Spirits have their personality and agenda that need to be adressed.

As well as favourite sacrifices that they require for their help.

My Totem Spirit - the one i have most favourable relations with - is Snake Spirit that avoids combat and heals - so he needs me to protect - his territory and offspring.

Still he's happy if i win a fight, for this is not a mistake at all.

When i offer blood and energy to him, he grows stronger, but not only by that.

-- Cirden, snake spirit shaman.

Tanning Hides (Cirden's Tale).

After sacrifice and fight for Snake Spirit i had meats and hides of various animals, for not only kobolds were slain.

Being nature person, i cannot waste such - neither Fenmarel Mestarine nor Animal Totem Spirits would forgive.

I've sold shiny gems from previous ventures, bought oil and tanning materials, attempted crafting but failed this time.

I managed to cook food succesfully at least.

Bought more tanning materials while i had shinies - for future attempts.

-- Cirden, shaman and druid.

Animal Sacrifice (Cirden's Tale).

 photo snakefight_zps46f1adfb.png

Fighting Snakes.



I hate to kill animals but i had to.

Their blood gives energy to survive.

In harsh Oscuran conditions it is neccessary.

If i am to protect Snake Spirit from being overwhelmed by Oscuran local forces, i had to draw blood from him and his minions, rock snakes.

-- Cirden Ev'riana, Servant Druid of Fenmarel Mestarine and Bon Shaman, Snake Spirit Protector.

P.S. Later i did venture into kobold swamps near Peltarch to kill these creatures and offer their energy to Snake Spirit. We did succeed.

Marty's Rats.

 photo Marthoussca_zpscf35322b.png

ex-senator Marty Leaffall.


Dear Journal,

On our way to patrol swamps area near Peltarch, we've (Nade and i) met two panthers - who turned out to be ex-senator Marthoussca Leaffall and her animal companion.

I've confronted her with my accusation that she supports evil that uses rats.

She said she cares for animals, nothing strange - she's a druid.

We've came into conclusion that matter is important and need to be adressed, so that there's no plague in the city, and rats - who are also living beings - are not poisoned en masse.

Perhaps we can use my Clairvoyant powers to find source of the rats, for now the clue is the City Sewers - lot of food for them there.

Sewers is where i died briefly, with a visit to Fugue Plane, so i am reluctant to go there alone however.

She will think, i will think, we'll see.

-- Chea Allin, animal liker.

About Minotaurs.

Dear Journal,

What i can tell about Minotaurs?

Very little, for i never dared this lair to the deepest end... it's so long a trip that my energy is spent before i reach this point.

Other than in this maze, they are scarce.

They are rare and unique creatures, that wield melee weapons... but perhaps not only.

Are there holy cows among such? Perhaps yes... If yes, then we do not wish to kill them.

I guess each of them has their unique fighting style, but being so rare it would make sense for them to be able to intelligently handle numbers of weaker opponents.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, creature lore investigator.

Minomelee.

Dear Journal,

Would Anheim win with Minotaur in a cage?

I doubt, even if he mentioned something about attacking livers and kindeys in a case of facing Mountains of Muscles and such.

I hope i am wrong.


-- Yours, Chea Allin, visionary.

Stinking Sword (Cirden's Tale).

There have been rumours about an EXTREMELY smelly sword of goblin enchantment left at the door to Oscura's temple. There was no sign of who left it. Then it ended somehow in well of souls.

I've wrinkled nose with disgust as i've passed by and muttered something about bad taste and sacrilege.

Tried to ward off stinking spirits with my druidic shamanism but went away hastily instead, waving my hand near my nose.

-- Cirden.

Paladin's Patrol into Norwick Crypt.

Norwick Old Graveyard. photo NorwickOldGraveyard_zpscd2c2215.png

Norwick's Old Graveyard.



Dear Journal,

I've visited Norwick on a Witch's intuition.

At south gate i met two adventurers, who introduced themselves nicely. A dwarven paladin, i forgot his name due to following experiences of combat, my shame. Perhaps next time it'll be better. Other one i keep meeting, Shesarai, but i know of her very little.

We went as a paladin's envoy into one of Norwick's Old Graveyard and Crypts, to challenge minor and lesser undead and kill demon or undead cow there.

We were succesful, but several times i've almost hit Shesarai with my flame-weapon augmented arrows. It's was dangerous, but only undead were harmed by it fortunately.

We returned, and i've apologized her... we did fine, i was pleased.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, Adventurer.


P.S. Later i remembered his name, Dwarven a Paladin's. It is: Silvanius Chalice, known as Silver.

Esoteric Dragon Control.

Dear Journal,

I think i did it.

I have seized control of an Esoteric Dragon, i do not know exact details of it's physical form - if any.

It won't harm anyone, only egos of terrorists and rapists.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, esoteric.
