Name: n the journal has improved by leaps and bounds
within a short span of pages. Much of the previous entries described acts of
violence and vengeance against Drezen's enemies. Of particular note was a passage
detailing the destruction of a pair of would-be assassins; next to the paragraph
is an accurate rendition of the legendary Battle Axe of Rah, which is apparently
a trophy from that battle. In the margins and upon the backs of every entry
are words repeated over and over, as well as alphabets in the common tongue.
They look to be writing exercises.

The word "Shooloo" draws attention to the following passage...

| At my Lord's mansion I met the Shooloo himself, a man...but not |
| a man. I don't know what it was, but I think it had teats like a |
| woman, yet still looked too manly. Anyway, once I got past that... |
| <duergar rune for "strangeness"> there was much to be learned from |
| her...er, him...whatever. He told me how to impress the Lord, and |
| get his attention. He said, after learning a thing or two about what |
| drives me, "Slay ten of those who walk in the Light by the thirtieth |
| rank of your guild," and so I got on it. I was plannin' to do plenty |
| of killing anyway, but this is a fine goal, and one that'll be a |
| challenge. |

| brief notes attached to each, such as "elven magi - transmutation - girly,"|
| "stormish warrior - axes - big scar on cheek." It looks to be a hit list.) |
