Contained within is the journal of Lelenia Maralyth
Galanodel, daughter of Amaaera and Daeisar Galanodel, and
cleric of Corellon Larethian.
Day 1: Today I was made a priestess of Corellon Larethian.
I now go out to begin my first quest. I have been
instructed to combat all evil and enemies of the Elves. My
parents have given me this journal in which to record my
journey ahead.
Day 2: I have made my way out of the ElvesÕ forest today.
This is the first time IÕve been away from the temple, but
I have seen enough of the other races to know of their
customs. The human villages are so dirty compared to our
Elven ones. There is a constant noise and bustle in these
places, crying children, haggling adults, braying animals.
Not at all like the peace I am used to. I will spend only a
short time here.
Day 5: The human pickpocket I just decked counts as an
enemy of the Elves, right?
Day 9: The humans of this village speak of a cult of
goblins nearby. They say they are hiding in a castle just a
short ways away. Perhaps this is the quest I seek. I shall
investigate tomorrow.
Day 10: There were indeed many goblins out in the castle,
but someone has been here before me and killed most of them.
The corpses have been looted, perhaps a bandit gang? Lots
of rats, though those are hardly a threat to any
normal-sized creature. *sigh* This is not at all the grand
adventure I expected it to be. I have however, discovered
several strange bottles. Maybe one will contain a healing
potion. I will have to examine them closely.
Day 11: I am writing this from the bottom of one of the
bottles. Apparently there are more dangers out here than I
thought.
Day 12: Am contemplating various ways to escape from the
bottle.
Day 13: Still in the bottle. Very bored.
Day 14: I think I shall have a good, long cry now.
Day 15: I am freed! My saviors are an unlikely bunch,
though. Two Elves, a ranger and a mage, and a kendermaid,
who says she is, ÒShelzy Oakjumper, a bard, very pleased
to meet you, wow, IÕve never seen anyone come out of a
bottle before, can you show me how to do that?Ó They tell
me that there used to be a dwarf as well, but he has
vanished. I fear he may have fallen prey to the same trap
as I did, but the bottle is nowhere to be found. Ah well.
At least I now have discovered more Elves, though the mage
looks rather young.
