This new war is stupid and pointless, Lloth only knows what purpose it serves.
Still it allowed me to participate in a piece of mischief. *grins* I have Klion?s lands under surveillance almost constantly, it pays to know what the strongest faction is up to. Faeryl reported to me that the Yewians had a Trinsic paladin as prisoner. So I had him watched. Over the course he was moved several times, the Yewians obviously felt that some sort of rescue would be attempted. And so it proved. And they all failed. I pondered over the consequences of freeing him myself??yes why not. *chuckles* I therefore authorised Faeryl to do it, but only if she was certain of not been seen.
As it turned out, just before Faeryl made her attempt, some rag tag brigand outfit made a botched attempt. Why they wanted the paladin, who knows. Most likely for coin. Anyway, the ensuing skirmish and confusion gave Faeryl the ideal opportunity which she seized with complete success! *laughs* Having watched various groups try and fail, here one small and slender female triumphs !!!
Faeryl brought the paladin to me and after I and LL patched him up and had a talk with him, we escorted him back to Trinsic. Sure I considered selling him but what use is coin to me, this suited my interests better. The expressions on the Duchy guards faces was a picture. *laughs* That alone made it all worthwhile. Maybe now that weak Duke will realise, it is not him or his guards I am after.
My search for the Drow who built the temple continues. I had a meeting with the female leader of the Kaldorians. Kaldor it seems once had a pact with some Drow groups. She did give me some names which may prove useful, but she admitted her memory is no longer what it was. So on the face of it, although it would seem I am no further forward, I do have some clues to work on.
*sighs* And still through all this, the relentless torment continues.
I met the Lady again. With her connection with LL, I took a severe risk. I confided my problem to her. Knowing that something similar happened to her in the past, I hope she can help me. She said she knew someone who may help and she resolved to find and consult her. *sighs very deeply* This may be the beginning of the end. One slight indiscretion from the Lady?.and I am finished! But I must find an alternative to my sisters method?that way spells doom too!
I watch, I assess, I report.
