Entry 1-4

First journal entry. Not entirely sure what to put here so let's start with me. ya that should work. ok I am Shilbek and i have no idea why i am writing this like i'm expecting someone else to read it. Well let's see, it's my graduation from the academy and now i'll be starting my time in the military doing whatever the hells it is they want me to do i guess until i've served 8 years. i guess that's not too bad overall. Elves sure don't seem to care much when it comes to that much time and if i ever to get a similar life span i'll probably end up thinking in a similar way. Kinda like the Vampires too. we'll see how this goes!   Second Journal entry. it's been a few months and....it's boring this whole thing with the military has been So damn boring. they treat me more like a "Go'for" than a mage. i know i'm not experienced enough to make my own undead, not that That isn't a whole discussion on its own, but still, i can do plenty with the spells i have now. Guess i'll just have to wait and see what happens. I swear though if another Cleric gives me a dirty look i'm going to set their hat on fire. i'm not a bad person! communing with the Dead is not a bad thing, there's so much to learn from past mages and peoples. like if i found the skull of some person in an ancient ruin from thousands of years ago, as a necromancer i can learn about what happened to cause the ruin of their nation and maybe know Not to open random doors holding demons or Far Realm monsters or who knows what else. i'm pretty sure clerics can't do that....Pretty sure. hmmm. well whatever, i have my usual tasks in the morning. time for more nightmares, Yaaaaay.   Third journal entry. Ok so the Magister went and got me a job! an actual task befitting my skills i thought! apparently i'm to escort this Princess Aurelia around and help keep her safe. Sounded great, but then she's a Paladin of all things. just.....i shouldn't question the Magister but fuck me he had to have knows she was a paladin and did this on purpose! i can already see this not going great as she calls me a heathen or some other wrong word for me not being of their religeon. why do they need to ask the gods for help so much? don't they realize they probably get sick of it? they'd probably value more of them if they were willing to act for themselves and do good work without being told every 5 minutes. some of the Clerics are ok i guess but too many are just cultists in my eyes. the Paladins only slightly better but also sometimes way Worse. i hope this princess is the former....     4th Entry. ok this uh....so far this dungeon has been eventful. not that in we fought alot of stuff but....i said some...Words to the paladin princess and ended up insulting not just who i meant, but uh, many more and that got me some bad attention and some strangling by a servant of the god of magic in the guise of a succubus. along with being told some very disheartening things. i still am not sure how to think about that and before i could think very long about it the party found a magical pool of water in another room of the dungeon. i inspected it to make sure the magic was safe and sure seemed that way until i, in my compromised mental state, entered the pool thinking i'd just soak and relax for a minute. well, something had other plans for me and i was pulled under the water and....well.....lost several virginities it seems to a Water Elemental Woman. that uh...that was more than just an experience i would say. no one has...has ever even looked at me with any sort of interest like that before, let alone touched me. i'm quite embarrassed to think this but she was Amazing and i am upset that i might not see her again. after asking her some questions, some of which has some answers that i will not record here just in case, the elemental reveled some pretty startling information. so the paladin princess apparently has Tenets that say a number of things but the important one is that she's not supposed to abandon her allies and...she did exactly that with me when i was pulled under water by the elemental. she assumed i drowned immediately and wasn't even going to recover my body and because of that broke her vows as a paladin. it's weird to be insulted for what i believed by the gods and then be validated in under an hour that people can be horrible just like i thought before. as i write this the princess is conflicted as she doesn't believe what the elemental said by the looks of it, despite knowing her oath down to a T and called her out on where she failed. being Me. i guess we'll see what happens next. If she decides to abandon being a paladin maybe i could teach her magic a bit or something. as...odd as i feel about her abandoning me like that, even if it turns out i wasn't in danger, i Expected that from a paladin and i'm not that upset. just, weirdly hollow that it finally happened. i don't think i'll be able to trust any cleric or paladin not similarly aligned to myself from now on, and i may only forgive Aurelia if she actually truly wants forgiveness. if she doesn't then, well, that's her mistake then. On a side note the Druid Lynnie has been nothing but pleasant with me despite our arguments and i rightly apologized for not giving her and her craft the respect they deserve. she walks the path of life and me of death and hers is not an easy path either. i shouldn't make it harder. maybe one day i can think of a benefit for the undead in nature. maybe as a sort of defense mechanism to guard against demons of the abyss. they would do far more damage than any undead could. i already had plans in the works to one day pull souls that have unrightfully been taken to the abyss as a means to prove undead can be a benefit. i of course will anger many demons in doing this but i have little need for them. even the Devils might support me in this considering their hatred for their cousin evils while the celestials would have to acknowledge that in fact Undeath can be used for some kind of good, if nothing else than evil that can destroy greater evils. that's the hope at least. now i just need to get that far.     End Entries
