by now my arm has healed and my ankles too because of the healing potion, but literally nothing is helping my anxiety about these guards. if they were regular guards or some other villages guards i would be fine, but these are Okasian guards.

i decided that i should just go into the Brightport Inn and stay there for the night because what else was i going to to. as soon as i got into the borders of Brightport, an Okasian guard ran straight towards me and scared the shit out of me. he practically yelled at me that there was a curfew even for vistors and if i had seen a woman with raven har and darker-tan skin with black marks & a sick woman with bright red hair. i said no because to be honest, if a person is wanted by/an enemy of Okasis, they’re an ally of mine.

he led me to the local inn and the room cost was like half of my coin. this literally sucks ass. i might try to talk with others in the common room of this inn in the morning to tell what in the world is going on.

it’s becoming night soon and i don’t want to sleep in anymore werewolf territory but i don’t have a boat to cross the water and Brightport is my only option in terms of getting a boat but as i’ve just WRITTEN, Okasis GUARDS are occupying it oh crap FUCK i’m so screwed.

the werewolves are friendly!!! some saw me while walking around their tribe camp but didn’t pay me any mind so that’s good!

almost to Brightport, might just take a couple days to relax there and actually sleep in a bed and hopefully not have some bad thing happen to me (which is what happens OFTEN).

so i’m passing Pikoro! next village i’m seeing on the map that i should visit is Brightport since the Neapolitan villages are much too far behind me to go to.

update: there’s a fucking abandoned looking castle in the middle of this frozen tundra. what.

though, it IS shelter and it’s turning nightfall so maybe i’ll turn in for the night

another update: some areas of this castle seems to be dusty and some seem to not be. there were also some torches that were still hot, like they were recently burned. so either someone is IN here or there were people in here recently. maybe it was those people that got captured?

note #32

i’ve found a small camp of settlers! i think they’re a traveling group and have currently stopped in this winter tundra and is open to the public. i’m so happy honestly, i need somewhere to stay for the night and NOT get kidnapped. i think i'll go chit chat with some of the people :]

note #31

i keep having this thought

back when the village was still standing, our library had a crap ton of info on the Divine Warriors. probably more then we should have if i'm being honest, most villages don't have the amount of info that we had. imbedded in a lot of info was drawings of the divine warriors.

there's just a thought that keeps nagging me. if my memory serves me right with those drawings, that woman that got thrown into the same cell as Lucinda looked almost identical to Irene. only difference she had was the dark marks on her face and skin that Irene didnt have. Irene had scars yes, but these weren't scars. i know that the Divine Warriors had descendants and such, but i feel like it’s impossible to be a descendant that looks identical to an ancestor.

i remember reading about certain stuff like the Divine Warriors descendants and i thought that Irene only had one biological child, of whom she killed. so wtf?

it sucks that i can't go back to the library since the entire building is just ash now.

so. i’m out of the cell. time to recap.

i was sitting in my cell, minding my own business doodling on my notepad, right? Logan is sleeping, and Lucinda is just trying to figure out how to make some kind of pain medication or potion to help with him.

suddenly there's a shit ton of noise coming from up above ground, and the noise starts getting closer and im recognizing it as werewolves and more coming down the stairs, and not just werewolves. Lucinda isn’t paying any mind to this, Logan is waking up from the noise and i’m the only one now paying attention.

now i’m seeing like 4 people being held captive by the werewolves and i’m just thinking "great, more company. these werewolves sure do like their kidnappings.". i’m assuming they’re going to put these people in like the other cells they have, but i assume wrong because now they’ve pulled me out of MY cell and put like the 3 men in it, placing me to side where all of everyone's stuff is. Lucinda is paying attention now because they’ve put the one woman in the group in Lucinda and Logan's cell and Lucinda is just staring at me. because what the fuck is happening.

werewolves are paying no mind to me now, and i’m starting to realize that i can just. walk out. the werewolves threw my stuff literally towards me in order to put away the other group's things, so now heres my chance! i pick up my stuff, slowly mind you, and the werewolves just don’t care. i’m looking towards Lucinda like "do i just go???" and she’s staring back basically like "yes??? i guess??". so i just grab the rest of my gear, dig into Lucinda's bag for a healing potion and i just. walk out.

and now i’m probably developing hypothermia because it turns out these werewolves LIVE IN A FUCKING WINTER TUNDRA. FUCK ME IN THE ASS.

day 101 in this cell.

a witch is in the same cell as Logan today, turns out her name is Lucinda.

Lucinda and i have made small talk, but thats about it. i told her that im just a traveler and was currently traveling over Ru'aun's east side, but have been stuck in this cell for the past couple months. she told me that she's from around here, apparently from some town, or at least near, a village called Pikoro. told me that Pikoro didn't take kindly to any witchcraft users or magicks users, so if i ever get out of here, i’ll make sure to stear clear of Pikoro.

she noticed my arm that got bit since i havent been able to treat it properly other then the ointment that the doctor in Scaleswind gave me. told her that it's probably going to get infected (it probably is already) since i can't use anything to clean it. Lucinda said that she would have made a healing potion to help if she had her ingredients and her familiar. she told me that she has a spare one with her things that the werewolves so kindly took away, and if i or all of us were able to get out i could take it. i thanked her for the offer.

day 82 in this cell.

it’s been hours since it happened and i’m still terrified from moving this cloth off of me.

i woke up today like normal. Logan looked beat up, but that was sort of normal because the werewolves didn’t like him. Dante and Donna were talking like normal, and today should’ve been a food day. there was noise up above shortly after I woke up, and the two of them were quiet to listen, i listened too.

The werewolves were talking with a person. then we heard footsteps walking down the stairs to the cells. then i saw him.

the werewolves were talking with the god damn High Priest.

i told Donna to hide me and that if they did anything with the cells to just leave me there. it turns out they were freeing the humans that were in the cells because the High Priest ordered them too. Donna and Dante left, but i was hidden under this cloth. Logan wasn’t let go, even though Donna kept saying he meant no threat to them.

i don’t know how long i’ll stay under this cloth. i’m still terrified that that High Preist is still here. even if he’s making the werewolves let us go, and even though he has no idea who i am, i do not want him to be the reason i am free.

day 61 in this cell.

a couple got kidnapped today. these werewolves are really on their A game huh.

they separated them into my cell and Dante’s cell. one is a werewolf also, but he has different colored fur so maybe the werewolves saw him as a threat. or they’ve just turned to kidnapping their own kind. told them the gist of the food and water arrangements, but i fear it may change due to the fact that there are more people to feed. they may just starve us, we’re prisoners after all. the woman was put into my cell, her name is Donna. the man’s name is Logan.

i feel sick. my legs feel heavy and hurt, i have headaches everyday now, my body temperature feels like it shifts every ten seconds, and i’m always hungry. i’ll try to distance myself from Donna.

day 58 in this cell. somehow not dead yet.

i woke up today to see some sort of knight in the cell in front of me. i don’t remember him being put in the cell, so he must have been put in there when i was sleeping. he said his name was Dante, he looked like a fresh guard. we didn’t talk much, all i really told him was that food came every 2 days and water everyday.

still thinking about the village. thinking more about my family.

day 37 in this cell, i’m not dead yet .

i’ve figured out that the wolves are trying to keep me weak in order for me to focus on not escaping. but it’s not like i can. i’m too busy trying to focus on surviving.

food comes every 2 days now while water is everyday now. i’ve managed to convince them to give me water everyday, because if not, i would be dead. they’ve managed to be getting more food for themselves, so they have given me the “luxury” as they call it for me to get food every two days instead of at random, so now i make sure to keep the food they give me to last for the days until i get more.

i’m still thinking of the village. thinking about what could have been.

there wasn’t a reason for the village to be destroyed. there really wasn’t. we weren’t enemies with anyone, we were open and kind, and yet our village had to come to an end because a fucking priest decided to simply watch others suffer for his own entertainment.

i want him dead.

day 24 in this god damn cell. i’m so fucking tired from doing nothing. i’m so hungry and thirsty from doing nothing.

the wolves haven’t been taking care of me whatsoever. i mean yeah, i am their prisoner, but today is the 3rd day without food and 2nd day without water. they probably forgot.. again.

i’m going to die here. i know that.

all i’ve been able to do is doodle in my notepad, but i don’t want to waste the pages or graphite. there’s no one down in these cells either, so most of the time i just think about.. what life would be like if the village was still standing, ya know? what if the village wasn’t burned? what if the people weren’t killed?

i can still smell the death sometimes. i can still smell the stench of ash and bodies as my friends and i road into the village, back from our trip ready to give gifts to our families and partners. it makes me sick to my stomach.

i want throw up again, but there’s nothing for me to regurgitate.

so. update.

ya know that werewolf i wrote about? well! do i have news for you!

woke up this morning like normal, ignoring my fucking itchy ass ankles, and packed my stuff up. sleeping bag away, tent all put back into it's carrier, ate some food, the works ya know?

and then werewolf came back. with more werewolves. and attacked me.

long story short, since i'm not all that strong arm wise, they beat me up, knocked me out, kidnapped me, and now i’m freezing my tits off in one of their cells that they keep prisoners in.

i was APPARENTLY in their hunting grounds without knowing! so they beat me up and kidnapped me.

so i’m in this cell now! great! hooray! i don’t have my journal since it's with my things, and i only have my notepad because it's something i can fit into my footwear.

REAL shitty day today.

woke up this morning and realized i’m low on rations. like, maybe 2 days worth of food. in reality with snacking maybe a day and a half.

was walking through the trees to go to a nearby village (or 3? on the map it says "Neapolitan Villages" so maybe it's multiple) to get MORE rations and ended up walking through POSION IVY! so now i have rashes on both of my ankles because it’s hot as the nether practically during these summer months and of course because of that i rolled my pants up.

and now to end off this shitty day, just as I was setting up my campground, a werewolf popped out of nowhere.

a fucking WEREWOLF.

I GOT A HORSE!! I TAMED A HORSE!! I PUT A SADDLE ON HER!!! I LOVE HER!! i’m naming her Mare because i am not creative with naming animals.

i think i’m starting to enter the colder parts of Ru'aun. there isn’t any snow, but early in the morning there is frost on the grass..
