Tower of the Mind.



the Fireplace,

.. at Dancing Mermaid, an Inn.



Dear Journal,

i've visited the 'Tower of my Mind', using my imagination as an exercise.

i've closed my eyes, letting the brain-waves work at a slower pace.

i've visualized the tower of infinite height, the tower that represented my Mind & it's aspirations ... with the unreachable top gone in the clouds.

i've visualized myself entering the tower, seeing various doors leading to the
Mind - Constructs that appear there,

there was a door labelled: 'love',

another with a labels: 'food', 'refuge', 'security',

there were two magical transport shafts with a labels: 'only downwards' & 'only upwards',

... i've levitated down to basement via one of the magical transport shafts ... but didn't leave the vertical tunnel,

instead, i've peeked outside, looking at a certain angle,

... dark corridor was dimly lit & i've felt that there are dangers & doors labelled 'avarice', 'violence', 'hatred', 'exclusive pride' ... as well as other similar 'lower ego' doors.

... i've cast a cantrip spells to lock the doors & quickly went to the other shaft, levitating upwards, promising myself to never go that route ... as much as i can.

upper floors were locked, it's labels hazy, not entirely formed ... but i've glimpsed at doors with 'dreams' written on, as well as at doors with 'intuition' label.

i've promised myself to unlock the higher aspiration doors, as fast as i can, then to explore these.

then i've went outside of the tower & looked at it's top again ... my short journey was over, i was longing to visit the tower in near future again.

Martial Arts against Kobolds (Anheim's Tale).



a Serie of Punch Strikes.



i've observed my Martial Arts used against kobolds.

'high' kicks against kobolds when convenient, occasionally other fancy moves went well.

this didn't change the fact that i've returned to Peltarch wounded.

Eye & Mirror, Moon & Mind.

Dear Journal,

a phrase appear in my Mind,

... a phrase of 'Eye & Mirror, Moon & Mind'.


Dear Journal, in a Mirror, an Eye can see ... itself.


A Mirror is an Eye-Opening & a Mind-Opening experience as well.

... what we can perceive, affects our thoughts.


Moon is with a Mind state of Madness, ... they say,

But Moon can brighten the Dark as well, even the Darkness in Mind.


Mirror & Moon are written to reflect the Worlds,

... Eye & Mind can Perceive.

A Mirror.



a Rainy Day,

at Vanessa's Vanity Tailor Shop in Peltarch.



Dear Journal,

today is a Rainy Day, a good time for a Quiet Reflection,

i've observed one of Radiant Godess' Attributes that i carry with me,

i've observed a Mirror & a World reflected within.

How a Mirror is related with Mind, with Insights as well ?

Lasso of Snake.



Lasso of Snake.



Dear Journal,

i've observed one of the Attributes of the Radiant Godess, that i carry with me all the time.

... It's a Lasso made of Snake.

How it works?

... Perhaps Snake's Head can be awakened, animated using Dharmic, Arcane or Divine powers that i possess, other beings as well.

When awakened, snake is dangerous & smart, helps to protect being or thing grabbed by lasso, to seize control over such ... i imagine.

It's useful for catching harmful influences, i read.

Gods & Faiths.



at Inn,

... with Thoughts,



Dear Journal,

... i was sitting at Mermaid, thoughts occured to me,

thoughts about Gods & Faiths, both of Greater & Lesser,

i think there are many gods, even if some disagree,

... for God is a Mind-State, that later becomes life's a part.

... a prayer is when i speak to god, meditation is when i listen what god tells.

no Godhood lasts forever, eventually every god falls,

there's no worse pain than of dying a God.

... only Enlightenment is True, the Non-Ceasing Experience.

being a Witch using Enlightened Energies, i often make a wish come true,

both wishes i made, as well as of others.

wish or magic does not need faith to succeed, but faith does strenghten wishes & spellcasting,

especially with a proper god choice.

i meditate & pray with many of the Gods, including Mystra, the Godess of Magics.


... OM ...

Gloves of Fearless Archery (Frances' Tale).

i should enchant a pair of gloves to be used with archery.


these gloves should be enchanted with Magics to increase wearer's Nimbleness & Fearlessness,

should work in a similar way as one of my rings,

should work nicely with other magic items as well.


... that might prove useful against a numerous opposition, or in a spooky shadows of dark tunnels in caves or similar.

... especially with arrows enchanted to burst with flames as they pierce enemy with steel.

... of Darkness & Light.

Dear Journal,

... is it true that Darkness Protects the Light ?

i had a Dream, Dear Journal, a Dream in which Demons roamed through Woods, seeking Lights to Devour,

Demons feed on the Light, on Thoughts & Feelings that bring the Liberation,

The Demons wish to entrap us in Hells ...


Dear Journal,

When a Cloak of Darkness hides a Light Source, Demons can't sense it from afar.

Occasionally Demons bite at our Black Cloaks, trying to scatter them, to find the Light,

... Cloaks are Menace of Demons as well.

Void Shard Secured (Frances' Tale).



Gossip.



... we've gathered in Peltarch Commons, we went 'Witch and the Seer' Tavern to talk about Mor'Salen proceedings.

on our way there we met a few of Blood Warriors & Blood Priest of Garagos, blocking our progress.

they attempted to trick us into letting them into Peltarch, under a excuse of Diplomacy.

they stated their interrest with 'Order of Divine Shield' of Peltarch, of Temple of the Triad.

then they attacked, fishing for Casus Belli (Reason for War) apparently, spies probably as well.

in Tavern's private parts we've found Captain Varus sitting with blood on his stomach & body, we tended to his wounds.

our intel was that the source of information for our foes was the Ancient Demon, manipulating Blood Warriors & Priests,

perhaps spies among us, as well.

another part of intel was that Mor'Salen is a Staff,

i've learned that we have one of Shards as well ... it was a Void Shard this time.

we've had to proceed to Mintas Temple HQ on feet, because Teleportation with a Shard is the Risk.

our way back might be Recall, the Word of Power.

as our Enemies & Risks escalate, we draw attention of their enemies as well ... Celestial beings in this the case.

we were advised about Secrecy need as well.

we went our way, we did fight against bloody swords & spells of the Hells.

a Miracle occured to us near Jiyyd's Plains.

a Vision of Ilmater, of old man Protecting us,

taking the blows,

... someone was Praying for us, for our Cause as well.

we were a Bless,

our skins grew thick as with Spells, of Stone-Skin kind.

in Heroes' Bluff, near the Ferry,

we fought them more,

as they Massacred,

fellow Gnomes & Hin.

then Mintas Forest & more of a fight.

Demons set up a trap, to get the Shard,

under a guise of Illusion.

... we ran past, not engaging in fight,

reaching a safe wards area just in time,

as Garagossan forces was nearing,

to cut out our advance,

Demons did follow as well.

safely past wards, we commenced to enter Mintas Temple HQ,

... went past Wards, Training Area & Shrine,

then we've met Shallyah who greeted us once again.

after short talk we were admitted to an Altar of Red Knight,

where Shard was accepted & teleported we don't know where, by Red Knight, herself.

for ignorance can be a Protection as well.

we were debriefed, thanked, rewarded with the potions again,

then we Teleported to 'Witch & the Seer', with a Word of Recall if i got it well.

we did rest for a while, exchanged few words, split the spoils & left the place.

well made ironwood shields sold well,

got over 3600 gold pieces & many of a expensive a Potion, as well.
