My Mood:  | Tuesday 12. August
The 7th. August - The Duke from Trinsic had arranged a caravan with aid and supplies for Cove and with the alliance between Vesper and Cove - Both the Militia and us made donations for the cause.
Apart from a few cursed tree's, Trolls, Ogre's and some boglings in the swamp there wasn't any problems.
- Don't know why, but when we were on the road - I had the feeling that either some Brigands or the Yewish Mutts would jump out and attack us to get theire filthy mittens on our donations. Thankfully that didn't happen and the caravan reached Cove without problems..
Sunday - The Vesperians, Covians and the little handful of Veeties who actually had the guts to stand up and defend our boarders from the yewish mutts - were getting ready to fight.
For a reason, I don't understand - Kiran wasn't keen on fighting the yewish Mutts and truth be told - That worries me. I never heard Kiran use terms as: "I aint gonna risk limbs or life for bricks" or even surrender! I fear that the small meetings, small conversations and trades with the bastards are the main reason. Another reason could be the shade trade that went wrong, where he got himself a beating..
Admittedly, it took me a while to persuade Kiran. I saw no other option than bringing the whole conversation down to a level, where I reminded him of that the yewish Mutts did to his family and friends, asked how he even could consider surrender to them. I pressed on everything, that possible could make him change his mind and in the end Kiran just looked at me, grunted and went downstairs - and then reported outside with his crossbow in his hand.
It aint a secret, that I can't fight, but I went anyways wearing disguise.
My bag was filled to the limit with bandies and I were standing at the base ready to give aid for those in need.
Before the Vesperians and Covians arrived - The Captain from Yew gave me a visit...
Bleh.. I can't believe, I turned down 10.000 doubloons - But it was worth it because today I am able to face the mirror without feeling like shite.
The Vesperians, Covians and the Veeties fought the best they could - I have no doubt about it. We were so close - But again, faith were against us!
I am at this very moment seriously - considering visiting the Church, lowering my head and fold my hands and try praying.
Who knows - Mebbe that will work...? |
