Sadness

by Edo The Ender

Goodnight took an arm off of Talis to replace her own. That's pretty cool. She almost is starting to look patchwork, like me.
 
We freed some prisoners. That felt good.
 
After we left the big housey place, a red dragon found us. Chill said we should trap it and rip off its wings. I think that was very mean of him considering what happened to me. I told him that and he just kinda shrugged. I think maybe he is evil just like Zachary. I tried to make friends with the dragon, but it didn't like that idea so instead it attacked us. Sweet Firnix fell. Chill was actually nice and healed her, so I guess maybe he's not as bad as Zachary. The dragon swallowed Winward! I was so scared. I told the dragon if he would spit out Winward and let us all go, I would give him my most valued treasure. It would break my heart to lose Eloi's crowbar because it's all I have to remember him by, and I have plans for it... but I would have done it to save Winward. The dragon didn't even answer me, it just kept attacking everyone. I was surprised because I thought dragons loved treasures. Well guess what happened? Little Firnix killed the dragon practically all by himself. I told him he did a great job. Then I remembered about Winward and ran over to cut him out of the dragon. I did, but it was too late. He's dead. Just like Eloi and Harrow. Anytime I think I have a friend in this group, they die. I hope Goodnight and Firnix aren't next. I still don't know if Goodnight even likes me at all... but we both love her son Firnix, so I think that has to mean something. Something weird happened. Winward had Harrow's morning-star with the birdie head. That's a new mystery for me to figure out.
 
I tried again to speak to Zachary about his armor and how it makes me sad. He just said, "Shut up Kobald. Nobody cares about your feelings and I'm glad it offends you." At least that's what it felt like he said. I told him I was scared that he wanted to kill me and use me as a helmet. He didn't deny it, so I guess it's true. During the dragon fight he even moved close to me hoping the dragon would do his dirty work. He laughed when I mentioned this to him.
 
I feel so lonely in this group. I wish I had a for sure friend.
