Thursday 18th March
Yesterday was the Trinsic Arms and Armour parade, I'm still somewhat disgusted and slightly angry at at the outcome of the event. It's not so much the fact that Myself, Kason, Lydia and Lyska put a lot of time, effort and thought into what we made or the embarrassment caused to the Company by not even being to come first, second or third in an armour competition with just six competitors. It's due more to the fact that Duchy politics came into what was supposed to be a fair competition, I speak of the whining Baron of Vesper Van Cocidious and his rather lazy entry into the competition. He comes to the event wearing the same outfit he wears everyday, does a twirl and the Duchy judges give him third place ! This sticks of corruption to me, and is an obvious attempt to gain favour and appease the ever hostile Vesperians.
Maybe it worked and the Duchy did impress and gain the respect of Vesper, but they did so at the expense of souring the relationship between themselves and the Company.

After the Contest we went and took out our anger by shooting Rune beetles, capturing a couple too, Zefar and Jacob have new pets, Lydia and I have new scars.
Following that we went along to the Vesper Trading Companies new Tavern "The Pole Arms" In Yew, and i was actually pleasantly surprised with the place, pretty girls, good service and for once ale that wasn't watered down, we shall have to go there again, and maybe next time Lydia will have that male lap dance.
