A Leathery Journal - (6th entry) Blood and coin



I don't know what to write. I don't know why I even keep this damned book. It is only a reminder of bad decisions from the past.

Maydawn has apparently been attacked by Ullir. The people seemed discontent with the answers I would give as to what could be done. They seemed shocked that we might actually have to draw a little blood for those 2000 gold coins we stole. They should be glad no one is dead instead of wanting to go out and kill that man. We have decided that staying in Bree and avoiding walking alone is the best solution for now. I will not risk the whole company for the sake of a girl's hurt feelings. I will have to keep an eye on Dataak, I do not trust him when it comes to keep himself in check... and with his previous connections I suppose I would be a fool if I were not to be suspicious of him. But again, who do I trust completely? There is only ever one I would trust completely, and that is me. I am alone with my thoughts, why should I trust anyone else with them?

I have told Cyliad to gather supplies for a longer campaign, and I told him to keep it discreet. We might have to go into hiding soon enough and we do not have enough food for that. I don't want to alarm the people, so we keep it between him and me. I fear we might not have seen the last of Ullir
