Efflorescence.

Ashald Park's morning.


Dear Journal,

i spent a night in the Ashald's Park, thinking about a poem.

'efflorescence dew
fluttering upon motions

tears of beauty fall.'


Efflorescence is such beautiful word, it refers to erotics, love, flowers, flowering, scents, night, light and scene.

Night & light come from associacion with Nitescence, a rare word for 'glow'.


i should use such beautiful words in my poetry as well.


'Oh, hearken Beloved, how the Night softly treads'.

Night.

Dragons.

Dear Journal,

What is Dragon?

Dragon is symbol of Fear, therefore any monster, even human monsters, are dragons in a way.

As one defeats dragon - either internal or external - one becomes a dragon as well, in a way.

... is it a defeat?

When one defeats a dragon to protect, because of love - one's loved ones offer reconcillation, it's a victory not a loss.

By defeating Dragons, great treasures can be obtained - either in coin or at least in Wisdom, Power and other Non-material Values.

The greater dragon defeated, the greater treasures obtained.

Befriending, taming a dragon is also a victory, probably the best of a kind.

Befriended Dragons are powerful Protectors, they are symbols of Magick & Protection.

Myself, i struggle with Esoteric Dragon - the Challenges related with Spiritual Pursuits.

Brief.

... at the Peltarch's City Hall.


Dear Journal,

My fever still lingers, but i was able to contribute to the Sharran Bandits investigation again.

We were briefed shortly in the Peltarch City Hall by a Guard Sargeant, then headed to Cerulean HQ.

There our Priestess, Ute Snow, called spirits of the dead bandits we had corpses of.

They were questioned across the Veil between Worlds of Living & Worlds of Dead ... at Selûne's prayer's grace.

One of them was a priest by name of Klinton, other a mage by hard to remember elven name.

Both 'served shadows', following Shar's Church orders, engaging into banditry in attempt to gain coin.

Their leader 'has no name', they operate 'everywhere' with no permanent base of operations.

Not much was revealed, but we were able to confirm that the bandits follow Shar.

By our detective, Roslyn Underhill's initiative, these two will be raised from death for further interrogation.

-- Yours, Chea Allin, a Cerulean Star 2nd.
