The Eleventh day of Elient (The Fading) The ceremony was the next morning. Attendance was surprisingly high. I had no idea his family was so large. But then I have entered a handful of rooms in that house so I have no idea how many reside there. I kept to myself, standing in the back of the chapel ...

The Ninth day of Elient (The Fading) I slipped off the ship and made arrangements for a wagon and horse, thankful for the physical changes my journey has wrought upon me. No one looked twice at the tanned female in worn sailor's garb wandering the streets. My shipmates stood as an honor guard of so...

The Sixteenth day of Elient (The Fading) It is done. The results startle me every time I see my reflection. We docked in Waterdeep nine days ago. I sit now at the small desk within my house, dressed comfortably in my beloved silk and pleased I had no cleaning to do. Yesterday the woman I had hired ...

The Twelfth day of Elasias (Highsun) One month to return to the city of my birth. Less if the winds favor us. Jehana and Dharaen are still watching me closely. They still are not certain about what occurred that night other than the attack. They had been too occupied with the last bit of battle to ...

The tenth day of Elasias (Highsun) It has been a battle, but I finally talked Kayliss out of a burial at sea. Ameneth's family, being nobility, deserves a choice. I accepted responsibility for his remains and told Kayliss to take the difference for the space they would require instead of cargo, out...

The Fifth Day of Elasias (Highsun) Stealthy footsteps had followed from the tavern, unnoticed by us as I laughingly supported Ameneth. It was mere minutes away from the start of Midsummer, and some of us had started our celebrations a little early in anticipation of later activities. Of the four of...

The Twenty-fifth day of Flamerule (Summertide) It only took five days. Scrubbing, removing arrows, arrowheads and crossbow bolts, sanding smooth where they had embedded into the deck so they would not shred bare feet. Rubbing oil over freshly scarred wood. The Wench gleamed again under her crew's c...

The Twentieth day of Flamerule (Summertide) Once again, no damage, no casualties. Just injuries. No sooner did we enter the Channel than we were flanked. A ship slid out of a small cove behind us, and as we made our way through, another appeared in front. Kayliss dropped anchor and the Wench jerked...

The Second day of Flamerule (Summertide) Calimport. Familiarity at last. It occurs to me that if I disembarked at this moment, I could be home in a matter of days. But no.
