I have been so busy that I have not had time to write yet again! I have been requested all over the city due to my musical prowess and my stature! I adore being in the spotlight! But out of nowhere, I suddenly missed the adventuring. I could not do much for them but sing, yet, I feel the Paladins got more out of my singing than any courtier in any palace. I mean, yes. The Paladins did greater in battle with my tunes to carry them through, but they seemed more genuinely appreciative of my abilities.
I am starting to feel like an oddity here. Plenty of other Bards, but no gnomes! Traveling did not place me in the company of gnomes, but there were at least dwarfs! No dwarfs around here either.
If I were a human and not a gnome from the east, would I be as popular as I am?
Sometimes I can feel the stares. Especially when I am climbing a human-sized bar stool to get a drink. There are two people at the top of my list to punch. First one is the next person who says, “Need any help getting up there, little girl?” As if I am a child playing in her parent's tavern and not the amazingly awesome Bard who just had them in tears with the Ballad of Tupper and Mona! The second on the list is the next guy who tells me what I can do while I am “down there”. Just because you pay me, does not make me your whore. I earn my money with my violin, not because my head is at a good height! Next guy who says something like that will get punched in the marriage tackle!
As humanity crushes my faith, I almost... ALMOST... wish I were back with the Paladins, seeing the good fight fought!
