Sunday 22. September.

I experienced that beeing nosey sometimes can reveal things you rather would have been without.

Like Sunday eve, after the Ship took Elliot's coffin to his final resting place.
I were at the Swaggers together with Faust, Van and Grace as two Guardsmen from Yew entered the Swaggers. One of them I reconized as Gotrek Crossarms. Hmm, the Guard that had spend some hours in company with Angfan.

Pathetic really. They call us theire enemies - But we can't be that bad, considering, he could spend time - during the Minoc wars with one of Vesper's spellcasters.

I might have seen the other Guard before, but I can't remember his name and truth be told - It don't matter.

Apparently they had arrived to deliver a note to Esca.
I told them how it was - That Esca had retired for the evening and wouldn't be back before tomorrow.
With the peace treaty signed and everything, I didn't have the feeling of beeing in danger or anything, so I asked if they wanted a pint, as I almost felt sorry for them. Afterall walking from Yew to Vesper is a long walk.

To theire own loss they declined and shortly after they asked - if maybe they could get me to pass the note for Esca.
I resieved the note, folded it together without looking much at it and then I stuffed it into my apron pocket.

Hmm. First mistake - Resiving a note and not even ask a question about it.
Anyways, the Guardsmen left again and Grace, Van, Faust and myself continued our conversations and I should have known..Gawd, I should have known! Ofcause the conversation took a twist and then it was aimed at the note in my apron pocket..

With me beeing nosey of nature, it unfortunally didn't take much to convince me to have a peek, so I dug into the apron pocket and pulled the note out...

As sad as it is - It seems like we will be faceing another war. So many lifes will be wasted and because of what? Kiran? Sometimes, it's like they just look any excuse to build up some tensions or war. I don't understand it. Why Yew are so bloodi concerned about - How we run things in Vesper? If they have so large issues with Vesper, why don't they just stay away? One thing is for sure, I wouldn't miss them!

Van is Vesper's Baron again and I must admit it's a relief.
I were so worried that Jasin would win - with him and Kiran beeing so 'close' friends I didn't have doubt, that Kiran would have tried to make Jasin ban me from Vesper and obviously also the Swaggers.

I sit here with my diary and my thoughts travel back to the last conversation, I had with Kiran, before I shoot him...
After I did that - I have been feeling paranoid and watched. When Kiran have been around - It's like we just are watching eachother and waiting for the next move.. The air feels thick of tensions and that worries me.

I can't figure him out these days, but it's scary to see, how well that Man actually knows me. Even before I spoke with Elliot, Esca or Raiden.. It was like he knew, I was going to..

What depresses me the most, is that he can't see the reason for my actions - Whenever it's asking friends for help or if it's selling him out to the highest bidder. I don't wanna loose the Swaggers - Nor do I wanna see more Veeties getting the same fate as Fain did. Tortured and then beheaded.

As much as I want to put Kiran and the Brotherhood behind me. It keeps popping up over and over again! Last time, it was at the Council meeting.
Esca wasn't there nor was a Represent from Cove..
I believe, that after showing Van and Damien the note for Esca - Cove will be informed and that Van will mention the ideas, which he already mentioned to us..

Bah! Thinking about upcomming wars, council meetings, Dev, Raiden, Faust, suggestions about staying completly neutral, Jasin.. and where the hell Kiran is hideing these days, gives me a fecking headacke! I need some air!

More later...
