Journal of Arcadius - Day 125 - 3

I have been pondering the matter of our situation, my oath, and my duties to Lord Pelor.

It seems to me I may be too hasty. My oath to Lady Gozen did not specify a time in which this mission was to be accomplished, and we now know for OTHER reasons that we must destroy this house - they are involved in the great evils of the world. At the same time, Lord Pelor has chosen me for a purpose, and that purpose is surely not to die needlessly. Perhaps it might make sense after all to retreat, having clearly failed in our mission, and return another day. Indeed, we MUST do so. It may still be that my purpose is to cover the escape of the others, so that they may return in victory. We shall see.

Why cannot they learn respect? This noble lady may be mad, and our foe, but even a foe may be worthy of respect. Simple and polite. Is this so difficult? By the gods, the time...

At least Fflam is now awake. He seems disoriented, but at least not inclined to willingly feed his brain to an Ilithid.

At last! They've done it! Ah wait... the tig e . r
