Role

Chapter 4

Journal Date: 1st of the Month of the Long Shadows

Aenthala and my Tribe tasked me to enter into the Midland's guild system and
seek my fortune alone to show me not only my worth but the importance of
working together with a single purpose. It was strange that once I came to
this realization I felt as if I could feel the Maiden of White with me at all
times. Though sadly with this insight the Shamans of my Tribe could once
again reach me in my dreams. Sad because they informed me of the Chief's
failing health and ultimate passing. They assured me that it was from
ailments other than the wounding I caused but I still feel badly for my
actions and for not being there to honor the Chief's passing.

Slowly I am making more and more acquaintences here in the Midlands and even
a few I would call friend. Laelliana and Faeniliera both have been there for
me when I needed a bit of aid or simply someone to talk with. Laelliana
showed some interest in the Maiden of White and did speak of one of the
Midland Goddesses, Baerinika. The Goddess Baerinika has some similarity to
Aenthala but to seek out battle endlessly would be ill advised in the frigid
Northlands. And to get a rush out of combat seems to be a common concept but
to become enamoured with such again would not be wise in the Northlands. I
may be missing something in what Laelliana speaks of so there could be much
more to her Goddess than I realize. Discussing the aspects of those we
worship has given me insights into Aenthala's teachings so I do hope to speak
with others.

I am gaining strength in skill along with faith in my abilities. Aenthala be
praised for her guidance, patience, and faith in me.
