A small notebook, the fifth page



Yet again it has been a few days since I last wrote in this small book, but it has not been because lack of time, or my life being so dreary that there was nothing to write about.No, I have happily spent all my time with Eredian.I still am.All I have to do is to reach out my hand and he is right there, next to me.

That I would be fortunate enough to meet him still amazes me, I always thought I would be alone for the rest of my time.Funny , that is, that I who are the only daughter of eight children, were the one that was not married off long time ago.It seems to be the norm that the women always gets married first.All my brothers are married and have families, and I know that it has worried my mother greatly that I would walk alone through life.This has never worried me though and is nothing I ever think of.Maybe it's just the way of mothers?

She can stop worrying now, I have Eredian, and I am content with what we have.I need no more, no less.Just this.The past few days I have learnt more about him as he freely speaks of his past and heritage, his oaths, his opinions and feelings on matters.He is easy to talk to, and easy to listen to, I sit spellbound when he speaks of his past and my imagination is drawing pictures in my mind that I wish I may be able to draw on a piece of parchment one day.

Last night was the first time I went back to see the others, as we were all called to meet by Fiontann.He is sending us out on another mission to gather some information and put Rothrian in charge of it.I don't know her very well so I'm looking forward to this opportunity to get to know her better, as he put me as her second! How this happened I have no clue, but he did.He explained to me when I was called into his office that I had what he was looking for, a seriousness and a sense of duty.I'm honored that he sees me in that light, and I will do my best to make sure he will continue to see me in the same light once we return. If we do..

I have to admit, I am a bit nervous about it.
