Journal Entry #1
I was in Bree today... For the first time since I was a child. I avoided the scholar's stair, I have no wish to see my old home... Or rather, the place where I was raised after my parents dumped me in the horsefields. I still wonder why it is that my parents did so, or even who they were, but it matters not, there is nothing to be done about it.
In any case, while I was visiting the Prancing Pony, I met a man who called himself Zhev. He seemed to know somehow that I was looking for work... He told me that he could find me some, with a group he called "The Black Dagger..." It seems I will have to wait and see...
Entry #2
I ran into Zhev once more today, it was after I left Bree and was returning to my camp in the Archet Dale. The man had his boss with him, a woman by the name of Susan, I believe she tried to intimidate me... She displayed her dagger and told me that she had killed a man only a few hours before... If that was indeed her intention, she failed quite miserably. The dagger was tiny, and Susan herself could fit the same description. Then again, everyone is rather tiny to me... Susan seemed to be impressed by me somehow, and she told Zhev that I was in... I assume she meant that I was allowed into the Black Dagger... Though I still don''t quite know what exactly the Black Dagger is. Seems I shall just have to wait and see.
Entry #3
I returned to Bree today, the Pony to be specific. I ran into Zhev while there... It seems that he needed my help with something or another. Turns out that the something or another, was defending an injured man from assassins... I met another of Zhev's allies, and a member of the Black Dagger known as Anrandir... I am still not sure what to think of Anrandir, the man is friendly enough, but there is something I can't quite understand in his expression... We eventually brought the injured man who was being hunted by the assassins back to the Comb and Wattle... Which as it turns out, is secretly owned by the Black Dagger.
Entry #4
I met a man in the Wattle today... Shady figure, called himself Smith. I couldn't get much else out of him before he left...
I also met two other members of the Black Dagger, though on different days between my last entry and now, one is a man who calls himself Treb, he is a musician... as well as a bit of a drunkard so it seems. The other was a woman, Dulci, or something of the sort, she seems to have an accent... Though from where i'm not sure.
Entry #5
I had to break up a fight in the Wattle today. This is apparently part of my job as the Comb and Wattle's new security head. The fight was between a few locals... Little fellows, farmers from around Combe. I gave them a good beating to teach them a lesson before I through them out and sent them on their way.
Entry #6
The Black Dagger organized a fight night tonight, I was in one ofthe first matches, with Anrandir as my opponent. For someone so much smaller than me, the man put up a good fight, and I have quite the gash on my forearm... I beat him though, layed him flat with a right hook...
Entry #7
Susan was in the Wattle again today. She has been injured, beaten up by someone. Though I didn't have time to find out who before I had to break up a fight in the common room... Seems she is having some dealings with groups that I have never heard of... The Oathsworn and Thorn being amongst them. Anrandir is going North, as far as I can tell in an attempt to stir the pot and force these factions into war with one another... I volunteered to go with him but I don't think he will take me... It is of no matter however, for truthfully I would rather be busy helping keep an eye on Susan, or at the very least hunting down whoever her attacker was...
