Page #13: "Lost and Found"
Dear Diary, my sixteenth nameday close approaches, and nervous though I be, the excitement of an adventure through the world unknown took hold of my senses. Before reason could overthrow my heart's desire, I found myself atop Samson my roaming companion, somewhere in the North Shroud. My task, as set by my teachers of the conjurer's guild would be to travel beyond the Twelvewoods on a journey of self-discovery. Proactive, as I am, I had thought to run ahead and scout a path for my walkabout. Alas, Wanderer forsake me, I became terribly lost. The strong winds of the wet weather had blown my coat clean off my back and absent my travelling pack, I had no access to wardrobe. The rain of the north fogged my way and find my path I could not.
I sought shelter under a gazebo, somewhere near Fallgourd Float. There I slept atop my furry Coeurl mount. Samson gave me warmth and wrapped his long whiskers about me, best as he could. Silently, I prayed to the Twelve, and lo, as though heavensent, a Lalafell approached me with warm blankets. I had not noticed before, but it seemed I had happened into the company of a travelling caravan of adventurers.
Wrapped warmly, I gave thanks to my caretakers and introduced myself. I met a confident looking Miqo'te keeper called Sir Jikam, a somewhat reserved fellow Hyur introduced as Sir Khyran and of course, my Lalafell saviour, was a Miss Lilia. Polite and well spoken, Miss Lilia referred to all who were there with a respectful Sir or Miss. She reminds me of my mother, so caring and full of kindness. Strangers and travellers are often regarded with caution in my parts of the Twelvewoods, but I felt quite safe among these fellows. Miss Lilia allowed me to keep her fashionably woven blanket, and I wrapped it over me like a shawl before departing and returning back south. I have made schedule to find her again once through the Nine Ivies. Pleased of my evening, I gave thanks to the Wanderer, for in a time of need did he send me the Wayfinders.
