I spoke to Mrs Adrielle about Vindarr's books, because the more I read it, the less I seem to understand! I don't know how but Absence seems to always have the right questions, the smart questions, the ones that somehow manage to get Vindarr to look away from his little trinkets for once. I thought Mrs Adrielle would've been help, but I could tell she was bored with me. I still don't quite get what is meant by 'electric charges', but I don't want to ask Vindarr stupid questions, and for him to think I'm stupid for not knowing. > >The trip had dawned on me the feeling of playing 'catch up'. Like i'm always three steps behind everyone else. > >Vindarr most obviously, I did not think there was that much to know about Étoile. I thought 'Necrology' would help me learn more about necromancy, but it just made me more confused about what souls have to do with it. > >Izre is so smart with people. He gets everyone to like him, and everyone does like him. Its always so hard and he makes it looks so easy, and it feels like he and everyone else seemed to learn how to do it except for me. > >Absence even talks smart. When we were in the medical room, she asked questions about memories and stuff, and the warforged we kept seeing. They were clever, ones I didn't even think to ask, but when I try to think of something like that I just sound like a child. > >Diletta is just like my sister. So clever with the body, she even has all of the organs memorised. But, like I mentioned, I did speak to her for a moment about it, while Izre and Vindarr were digging at ice. She mentioned something that made me sad. She told me about of the nine hells, that was so cold it could freeze over the flames. She doesn't like the cold much. I asked to warm her hands but she said no. > >Diletta is smart but its easy to forget. She said I will find something thats 'me', and that I wasn't as lonely as I thought. She pointed out how Absence was the same, how she just like me has so much to catch up on, but that is something I seem to forget rather easily, seeing how well she manages to convince the world she isn't floundering. It does make me feel less outcast in the group, which is nice. > >Diletta also said she was excited to try my signature cocktail. I haven't made it in a while, and I had been starting to feel homesick, so I think it would be nice to find relief in her company. She likes parties, too. Real parties, which is even better. She knows about me knowing, about ~~what~~ who she is. Diletta is clever in making me feel like a friend.</div> --- >[!cite|transcript]- Transcript >Fatimara the 45th, Sunday > > Is this what adventuring is normally like? > > I thought it might've been more exciting.
