The adventure I managed to get on looked simple enough, escort a trio of witches around [[Ranke]] and keep an eye on them while they did rituals and stuff to get the land ready for Spring after all the War and Darkness it had been subjected to. Seemed simple enough - I mean how hard can it be? Even for someone of my limited capabilities ... sorry ... not allowed to use the word limited in relation to myself. Also not allowed to say handicapped, cursed or .. anything else that will bring down my already damaged self-worth. *sigh* Already having to take St John's Wort on a daily basis.

Scribe Notes

I've finally done it. Got myself on an adventure. Took a bit of prodding from Starflower and the Sorceress in Silver but I did it. After the last fiasco where I royally messed up and nearly got myself killed by self-induced suicide - or something - I still don't know what the heck I was thinking at the time - I'm back in the field and hoping I still have the Right Stuff.

The adventure I managed to get on looked simple enough, escort a trio of witches around Ranke and keep an eye on them while they did rituals and stuff to get the land ready for Spring after all the War and Darkness it had been subjected to. Seemed simple enough - I mean how hard can it be? Even for someone of my limited capabilities ... sorry ... not allowed to use the word limited in relation to myself. Also not allowed to say handicapped, cursed or .. anything else that will bring down my already damaged self-worth. *sigh* Already having to take St John's Wort on a daily basis.

Anyway, enough about me, although I should point out, that, after missing out at the main Guild meeting - again - I was feeling a bit lackluster, especially after the news that the Spring Rites hadn't been enough to rejuvenate the Elven Race and we would have to closely ally ourselves with the Evil Drow, and I mean really closely, when I was told that a late employer had arrived and was looking for volunteers. So I went (read was guided .. erm ... pushed by Cousin Starflower - that woman can be so persuasive sometimes) and signed up.

There were two other people in there. One I recognised instantly being Sir Wojer, a fellow member of the Air College. The other, I didn't know but I soon found out was Amira, a dancer from Adjepbar. When I mentioned that I knew dances as well, she asked me if I had ever danced around a pole. I replied that I had flown around them but never danced around one before. I quickly got the impression that she thought I should.

Our party employer was an emissary from Baron Helmut, located in the Silverstream Barony in South Ranke. I had a fair idea where that was and was confident I could find it from the air. He told us that we were required to escort the three witches that the Baron had employed to Bless the barony and they were just about to enter an area called the Rose Valley. Unfortunately there had been stories of people going in there and disappearing so the Baron wanted them protected in there. Makes sense. I just hope that the three of us are up to the task.

After the emissary had left, we sorted out what resources we had and who was doing what. It soon became apparent that these two knew about my affliction (not surprisingly, it was all around the Guild - so much for discretion) and were making plans to help me deal with it. Fortunately, one of those plans was not making me the Party Leader as well as the Scribe. Amira became our leader. Guild Security was also successful in vetoing their other plan to sell me to a brothel in Sanctuary and wait for me to escape. I would have just flown out the nearest window anyway - naked if I had to.

Next thing we did was to check our resources then go off to make preparations. I went off to get a Greater as well as stock up on healing potions and restoratives. Fortunately, being the day after the Guild Meeting, the queues were short to non-existent.
