I attended my parents' Funeral

I had heard news among the Voralian colleges that Burtrand and Jacintha had
died, within two weeks of one another. A funeral was to be held, and I
attended it - without being invited. There was a minor altercation, in
which I slew a Priest and sent a crowd running.

The funeral had me thinking about mortality. Like my parents, I will die of
old age - in perhaps two decades. Still, the Eternal Night is beyond our
grasp. I have wrought my share of death and destruction, and that pleases
me. But the ultimate goal eludes me.

I have decided that in order to ensure that the Prophecy is fulfilled, I
should write down the fruits of our research for future Scions. In the
meantime, I have procured the Large Water Bowl alongside the Staff of
Elemental Power Earth. When I can assemble a few scholars to aid in the
experiment, I should be able to study in detail the nature of devices that
can breach planar barriers.
