My Mood:  | Thursday 16th. November.
After a very quiet evening at the Swaggers, I decided to go to Trinsie and see, if anything was going on.
Now I know it was rather late and to be honestly, I didn't suspect to met anyone at all.
When I reached Trinsie, I decided to check the Keg and Anchor - If no one was there, Then I could atleast grab
a drink, before heading back home and cuddle up to Hanse.
Poor man. So much work and early shifts.
Anyways - Not far from the Keg and Anchor, I ran into Hanse's niece - Lyonya.
She is a great Lass. I know, I haven't known her, that long - But I really like her. She is just hillarious!
We greeted eachother and then we fell in talk.
She asked, if I had been at the Swaggers - I nodded and told her,
that it was so late and that people probably was laying in theire beds sleeping.
Since we both was rather bored and had nothing to do.
We...*The 'We' is crossed out*
I suggested, we would could take a trip to Stonekeep, get a pint and then return to Vesper.
Lyonya was in for it. She just had to change out of her Vesperian uniform - As it got her into troubles last time
she went there.
I considered, dyeing my hair into another colour. But then again, beeing so late - I did suspect Stonekeep to be empty.
At first - Stonekeep was empty. We entered the Tavern. Apparently the Yewlings had been whipping Lyonya at the tree infront of
the Tavern. It made me think of that 'Tearheart'. I wasen't tied to any tree. I was getting holded inside the Citadel.
We entered the Tavern and Lyonya ordered herself some rum, while I took some white wine.
At that time, I didn't have the slightest clue, that we would be close to death. I'm so scared.
We talked a little back and forth about all sort of things, and we litterly had a great time.
After our drinks, we decided to head home.
But outside the Tavern, I ran into Angfans friend. I've seen them leave Trinsie together.
And I honestly thought, when he was beeing friends with her, then we would be safe aswell.
I was wrong. I hate myself for beeing so naive. And I don't even dare to think, what Hanse would think of me now..
The man, didn't care.
And the whole thing backfired, when I mentioned Angfan.
He claimed, that if we was friends of Angfan, then we was clearly from the Rebel City.
Bleh! What was we suppose to say?!
He would never have listend, even if we had tries to explain.[/center] [center]Lyonya convinced him to go down to the Tavern with us for a drink.
And after a while he followed. He didn't drink though. He just claimed to be working for the Nobles.
What an arse! Really!
While he was disgussing with Lyonya a Undead entered the Tavern.
It's the first Undead, I've seen outside the Graveyard and I can't think of anything more scary, than -that-.
He.. It is on the size on a full grown Man - Just without the flesh or well partly without.
It's bones and part flesh.. Just thinking of it sends chills down my spine. I've never seen anything like it!
It walked.. And stared at us, with it's eyes - No it wasen't eyes, it was glowing eyesockets.
Argh! It's creepy and I've had turned all light on at the Swaggers, as I sit here writeing. I'll never leave the building alone, if it's dark.
First I was so shocked, that I can't even remember what I said.
I'm scared - I'm terrified. Please God, if you excist. Don't let them come to Vesper.
I can't believe it.
He left us. The Guard left us alone with that Undead.
It was cackling and when it tries to move left around the table, we started to walk away from it - Always keeping the table between us. But it was smart, makeing sure that we couldn't reach the damn door!
I went into panic. I could have swore, that this was the end.
Lyonya managed to calm me down somehow. And I tried to avoid looking at it.
I screamed for the Guard, but he was gone. He had really, -really- left us alone with it.
A thousand thoughts ran through my mind. I was so sure, I would see my Mum.. and my Dad again.
How would people back home react, when they found out? IF they found out, because - I doubt that Guard would tell anyone about.
I'm normally a very openminded person to people. And I would NEVER have left another human beeing alone, with whatever have threathend Vesper. Never.
He really hates us.
How can he hate us for just wanting to have the Loyalists leaveing Minoc alone?`
It beats me. I can't find any logic for it.
Lyonya was so brave. She casted one spell after another at the Undead.
While I ran towards the door, I threw everything I could lift, after the Undead and when I reached the door, I keept it open - Hopeing she would get a chance of getting out!
She continued fighting it, while I was paralyzed of fear in the door. Just watching this.. This Nightmare.
And after - What fell like hours, she managed to blow It up.
I'm so worried for her.
Because not long after, she complained about not beeing able to see and that she had this
foul taste of rotten meat in her mouth!
She started to throw up and I've never felt this helpless before.
All I could do, was trying my best to comfort her.
I asked her several of times, if she had been bitten by it and she claimed no.
I've heard from a friend, that is rather familiar with Undeads - Who have fought them several of times, that you should be carefull not getting bitten by them, as it could turn you into one of them.
How am I gonna explain this to Hanse?
"Hi Hun, did I tell you how much I love you... By the way - I took your niece to Stonekeep. And now... Well now she can't see! And she got this taste of rotten meat!"
I won't even be able to finish that line to him. I will die, as soon as I mention, she can't see...
*There appears to be drops of water on the page - Tears mayhaps*
Mayhaps, that's for the best too.. I got his Little Lion seriously wounded.
I've been cleaning the cutwounds on her hands.. And I've been giveing her a warm bath and clean clothes.
It didn't help. She can't see, nor can she get that taste out of her mouth!
Ly mentioned this Agnes woman.. Mayhaps she know something about those symtoms.
Please, God.. Let her know what to do. Because everything, I tried have failed!
I've sended for her. And now, I watch Ly while she sleeps.. I'm too worried to sleep myself. *The writeing ends....*
