Poe's Journal Entry
S’anhu and I met up to try to have Ace and Rose speak. With a little prodding we were able to get them to meet. Of course, it never fails when we manage to get those two into a room together, nothing is easy. A stranger started lurking, seemed like they were trying to listen in while the true details were being sorted out. Ace seemed…exhausted still. My spells have helped minimally I feel, I don’t know how much damage he sustained with Malthe cut off his connection to the aether flow…. I will need need to continue to look into this…the library at the Conjurer’s guild shed little light.After Rose and S’anhu shared pleasantries with this stranger, we moved to a more quiet location to speak. I could almost smile, S’anhu and I made a pretty good team, patching Ace and Rose back up, getting them to talk. Suddenly Dae appeared, it was a relief to see him…but….It was awkward too. The others split pretty quick. I didn’t know what to say. How do I tell him his absence…my confusion about why he has been gone? I remember when Rose asked me if Daevien had spoken to me. That moment, when S’anhu and Rose were looking at me curiously, I had no answer…he just had tucked me in and left. And like that, he was back. I brought him up to speed, let him know what was going on….thankfully our conversation moved to a more gentle topic. I told him I had another training trip with Padjals planned…but not before a trip to Fallgourd. I need to clear my head, not that sleeping at the ship hasn’t been comforting. I think a quiet evening by the waterfall would make a huge difference.
I was excited about selling the amulet, after passing along the information and discussing a possible party, I have come up with a great idea! Since Ambrosia has closed down, we haven’t spent time down by the sea. I want to seek out Ami’s advice, surely she would know how to put on a great party. I plan on sending her a quick note. I know she has been busy, I haven’t seen her much of her; I hope she will consider helping me put the party on.
Over the pearl, I heard confusion…Lina running, Carter chasing. And Shura back…? Rose and I were finally able to convince Carter to speak with us. He explained again he simply wanted to help Lina. He looked….truthful. I know I can’t even say that. After Eros…I don’t know that the other trust my judgement of character. But I swear, he seemed genuine…
I have much to do before my training. And…I feel like I have lost my solace…I just want that back, even if that -is- selfish.
