Invigoration


I never did like this town of Havenhill, and even now as I prepare to depart it still has not grown on me. I stayed this long only to help friend Drazil and give him the guidance he needed.

I feel like I have finally dried out from the battle a few nights ago. As unogodly uncomfortable it was it felt great to unleash my fury and aggression on the slime of the Pomarj. Melf's advice was never greater when he told me to find a weapon I adore and merge it with my gift. I passed this advice onto the sailor who has foolishly rushed into battle in the past which only resulted in him getting gruesome scars and almost dying.

I feel I may have gotten carried away with my lightning blasts but I have no regrets. I was surprised at how effective my Shocking Grasp spell worked through my sword. I know the sailor was impressed because he has been incessant in wanting me to teach it to him. I told him I would because I have been impressed with him. Melf always told me there is no greater gift than sharing the gift with those that deserve it, but use caution. My instincts tell me Kildare is a special one - an ally worth having.

My romance attempts on the ranger Shayla did not work out so well. Perhaps it is my arrogance, or perhaps it is her damaged psyche. Either way, no big loss; while her physical beauty is truly breathtaking (especially for a half breed) her attitude and personality leave a lot to be desired. I have done a sketch of the ranger. I think it encompasses her physical beauty and also her introverted nature.

I do plan on traveling with her and the Veluna knight Isram. They are heading up to Aegis Pass and I will make my way home to Celene. I have a lot to report to the elders. Intelligence that they should take seriously but I am sure they will not which means I will most likely find myself leaving my home again out of frustration.
