"Maintaining peace and order sure is a challenge... First there were the Lycanthropes, than the egg, and now this. No worries, though, I can work with this."
Things are going great here, for the most part. The lycanthropy situation is starting to escalate: we have set up posters and have informed the people of Chalk, Nessa and I have already restored quite a number of Lycanthropes and we're seeing new cases everyday. My team managed to find a lead that could give us a massive advantage, but I'm not sure if I want to send them into the fray like that: They lack a proper amount of training and proper arms. Furthermore, these are all men of Chalk and the surrounding; I know these men and even some of their families. I cannot put them in danger like this. I will station them in Chalk. There they will be familiar with their surroundings, while still being on site to prevent any more people from being taken.
Thamkis joined in on caring for the egg, bringing it to 4 of us. It's amazing to watch her care for it, she's a natural (not to mention she's also just an amazing person in general). I've been a little busy, so I haven't seen the egg for 2 days now, but Teagan is still there and I still talk to him and the others. It's doing great and I'm starting to become very excited to welcome him/her into this world (is that weird?).
Didron also recently came to me for advice: the southern villages wish to break away from the Bratian Empire and rejoin the Kingdom of Danzar. He is unsure what to do, and frankly, I'm not sure how to approach this situation either. After the full-moon is over I'm going to return to Driord to check on the egg and help where I am needed and then I am going to go talk to the people there. I will be gone for quite a while, but I'm sure it will be good to talk to the people themselves. I hope they are approachable, as Bratian guards have already been assaulted in some of the towns. I just hope they won't treat a negotiator the same way. At least I know the egg will be safe in the hands of a powerful druid, a mighty wizard and a dedicated parent. As for Chalk, it now lies in the protection of a full fledged manticore named Stormfly (Let's hope he doesn't get too hungry while I'm gone, though the Farmans and Brian have already warmed up to him enough to be trusted by Stormfly, so I'm sure it'll be alright).
As a last note: I recently received an invitation from someone VERY IMPORTANT!!! So I'll be off-planet around new years day, but I'm sure Batuu will be fine.
