His Grace returned today to Trinsic and he looked quite well, though still had to support himself with a walking stick when walking.
He asked us guards and others to assist him to Spiritwood where we would continue to look for a man called Michael.
So John, Lance and me some elves,Lady Gwyn Quaintly, Keina and Eike went to Spiritwood which we found pretty quiet and so we went to the university tower.
Upon entering it some sort of daemon attacked us, but it quickly fell under our blows and we secured the tower then.

His Grace and the others then searched the tower for hints and found some in a book which was about a white Lady in the icy lands.
The party left then through a magik portal to that place and as I nay like that gate I returned to Trinsic to guard the town.

Lady Gwyn Quaintly took over the lease of the jeweller which her sister had owned before and Vernon Hunter the tailors shop and I added copies of the licenses to the report.

All was quiet and nothing out of the usual to report in town until my shift is over.

*some licences are added to the report*

Thank you all for coming!

Rest of my shift was quiet and uneventful and I am glad that I have the next day off to rest and enjoy some time with my love.

Kaelyn

Sorry it seems my last reports got lost somewhere, though maybe they just got thrown away as there was nothing to report.

Except that Eike stole a sash from Kai and is wanted for that it was fairly quiet.

Todays duty would have been the same except for some big bald brute with a huge mace that refused to disarm or leave town and hurt me and another innocent citizen by attacking us. He claims to be someone called the invincible or something similar Raul and was bald and in red armor and wielded some huge maces.

Lady Moiraine and the healers tended mine and the other woman’s, whom I still don’t know anything about but she fought very well, wounds.
Lady Moiraine’s medicine as terrible as it tastes, helped and I could leave the healers walking on my own two feet again.

I paid Liliana her salary for her sevices as help at the tavern and have included the note to the report.

*a note is included to the report*
Paid Liliana for services to the Duchy on the 18 October the amount of 77 gold.
Kaelyn

*another note is added*
I am sorry to tell your Grace that I was robbed after collecting the gold for one of the buildings rent and the assailant escaped with the gold.

I wrote about it in the last report but have noted it down in the trading records.
As it was my fault the gold was lost I will understand when the gold will be deducted from my salary.

Kaelyn

Found Eike and questioned him about the sash he stole from Kai and he admitted that he had returned it, though Kai did nay seem satisfied with it.
So I set Eike to get something nice to Kai, else we will sentence him to stocks and I am sure Kai would take some revenge on that.

Rest of my shift was pretty, though I have concerns about John and asked Lady Moiraine to check up on him.

Today some strange people were wandering through the town and as Iglata was to be questioned by Lady Moiraine and Iljian, we took extra care by checking people.

It seems the questioning went quite smoothly but John was attacked on one of his patrols at the southgate and barely managed to get to the healers for treatment.
Iljian and me checked south but nay found a sign of the man, though it seems the brigand had had a run in with some other people and had to flee.

It seems John was more hurt than we thought and he had to stay at the healers by Lady Moiraine’s orders, as she also wanted to check up on him more thoroughly next day.

Kaelyn

WANTED
Ugly big bald brute, about 6 foot high and wearing most probably red iron armor.
His supposed name is Raul and he is most likely ugly, with a scarred face and an eye missing. His weapon of choice seems to be big maces and he is very dangerous when he uses them.

He is wanted for bearing arms in town, resisting arrest, assault on a guard, namely Kaelyn and a citizen that tried to help.

Today’s duty was rather quiet and uneventful. Only Himasa’s sleep outside the gates, which could not be disturbed by anything was unusual.
Iljian and Iljiana’s shift also seems to have been quite uneventful and mine Kiri’s and John’s shift was also quiet.

Got a message from the stable master about my pigeons and he had to inform me that all had died of some bird sickness and that I could not hold any until the cause of it is found out, so no anymore die.

John went to Britain to investigate more on the Sherry the mouse mysteries and will report about it soon.
My shift was uneventful and I let the paladins take over the rest of the night then.

Kaelyn

Today Umbra held a special course of how to tackle crimes and trying to solve them. So me, Himasa and John went to Umbra and from there to the Lecture Hall to listen to it.
It started with some basics about why crimes are committed and for what to look for and after some discussion the tutors set up a crime and asked us to solve it.

They showed us a body of a paladin with a description of what wounds it had and what items would be on the corpse and we then had to question some witnesses in the hall.
One said that the paladin was from Luna and so we headed there and found another paladin that told us that the “murdered” one was a teacher and that he had two pupils. We asked around because of the two pupils and one guard told us that one had been seeing leaving the town running to some tower in the woods.

We followed to the tower and found the paladin there and found out that the paladin had done the crime most likely unintentional because of great pressure.

It was a good lecture and training and John was doing very well and solved all of it a lot easier than me.

When we returned to town it was quite busy but peaceful. Some of the Vesper barmaids and their owner were in the tavern and fooling around.
Miss Sally arrived then and met a Sir Rob Blackwood, whom she said is a citizen of the Duchy.

Seemingly the Vesper people assumed that Rob should be in Vesper and tried to force him to return. I interfered and told them to leave the town which they grudgingly did, stating though that they would call some Vesper militia for help. I asked Miss Sally to go somewhere safer with this Rob, but she said everything would be fine and that he is a well knows citizen.

While I escorted the Vesperians to the gate Gerek assaulted Lady Sally and bruised her badly, but Gerek managed to flee the town.
A short time later though more Vesperian militia arrived and they cornered Miss Buttons and Sir Blackwood in the tavern with the intention to return him to Vesper by force.

As the situation was hopeless and John still injured I ordered him to get some help and tell the healers that they would have business soon enough.

Gerek smacked a bottle of ale over Rob’s head and when I tried to help, me and Miss Buttons were beaten down and left unconscious.
Mr. Blackwood was seemingly kidnapped and brought to Vesper and we nay know anything more about it.

Miss Buttons was like me covered with bruises but also not seriously hurt and we both spent the night at the healers.

I would ask if Gerek can get a town ban for two weeks for his attack on Miss Sally and would ask what to do about the kidnapping of Sir Rob Blackwood.

Kaelyn

Was bruised and hurt all over, but the town was peaceful and quiet when I made my first patrol. Seemingly there was some magik convention and people left through portals near Trinsic gate to some unknown place.

A patrol to the Rose was uneventful and I stopped there for a short time to chat and have some milk and was asked about Iglata and told them to ask Milady Moiraine or Lady Reann.

Upon returning to the gate I saw Lady Moiraine talking with commander Jurell, who was here on business to investigate the craters. We escorted him to one and after Jurell poke about in it some undead things appeared though we cut them down quickly enough. The commander seemed troubled about it and ordered us to watch it closely before he hurriedly left the town.

Some Covians were troubling the Sheriff in the jail but it seems their commander was delirious, as he mistook Milady Moiraine with Lady Soulshadow and after seeing Aisha ran off shouting as if the devil was after him and all his men ran after him.

Lady Gwen and Sir Taggart and some others came then to talk with Lady Moiraine about Iglata and it seems we cannot prove that he did the murders and all seem to be very upset about it. Most made clear that if we let him go that they would kill him on sight, so we need to find to prove his innocence or guilt.

Rest of my shift was uneventful and I will go home and give my bruises some good rest.

Kaelyn

Today was market day and the town was fairly busy, though we had some troubles as some booths took longer than expected to set them up.
But Sally and Ivan managed to set up their booths near the bank and quickly had lots of customers asking for their wares.

I set up a small booth then too selling sketches I painted for people and a song I sung for a customer.

Business was fairly well and all of us sold quite a lot and I donated all the money I made to the orphanage.

Rest of the duty was quiet and uneventful.

Quote:

Had shared duty with Natalie today and all seemed to be pretty fine.
Some people from Vesper were frantically running through the streets and we had to remind them about the law of not running armed and to make nay trouble.

Sabrae and Jaraxle had a fight in the street but nay thing serious happened and I had to fine Sir Jaraxle as he had started. I urge though the guards to have a further look into this business as I think that the drow Sabrae and also Faeryl sort of provoked the fight and we are looking for proof of it.

A woman was robbed outside of town by two brigands, though Iljian and Natalie quickly looked they could nay find any sign of them. The lady was nay seriously hurt though and also nay lost any valuables as she quickly ran. As usual the brigands wore masks and brown robes and nay could be further identified.

The co owner of the swaggers asked if he could rent a building and after he got someone ah think somewhat reliable to vouch for him, I will take it under consideration.

Some lawyer from Vesper asked that the employees of the Swaggers can sell their wares like food, drinks, alcohol and whatever else they offer at the swaggers on the streets. As we have the Rose and the Trinsic tavern close by I denied them the license and warned the lawyer nay to bring up that subject again for three days or he would be put on stocks for it.

It seems we have a new jailor and he seems to be a sort of well educated and cultivated one, a nice exception of our last ones and certainly an improvement.
Lady Moiraine let me look over his recommendations and they all seemed fine and in order, so I told the baroness that I think that man a good choice.

Lady Ravida offered to donate food and ressources to the orphanage and will provide those goods at Sunday at 9:30 at the Britain Moongate and that we provide an escort for her.

I will try to set up some guard training for all. I will prepare a bag and the guards will have to find out to whom it might belong, ask people and then tell me the solution. You can share information but if you think you know to whom it belongs to, please only tell me so others can find it out too.

Kaelyn

Was a quiet day today and Natalie shared my shift. I finished the song and managed to get Kai read it to Commander Soulshadow and both seemed to like it.

Himasa was attacked by some Ninja, but seemed unharmed and Keina found a note about a kidnapped person, whom we should ransom at a graveyard.

Natalie and me searched but we nay could find any sign of them and had to stop the search without any result. I hope it was just a prank and would like the other guards to look into it when they have time.

Just before my shift ended some Knights Hospitaler brought in a person called Shade and asked if we could put him in a cell for the night.
I agreed to it and he was searched and stripped of anything dangerous and put into cell one until they get him tomorrow.

Kaelyn

Lady Ravina visited today and brought the donations for the orphanage which I stored in the armoury until Miss Sally can get them. She was very gracious and Miss Sally will have lots of food and cloth in the months to come.

Faeryl walked into the town and before escorting her outside again I questioned her about the troubles she and Jaraxle seem to have. She accused Jaraxle of kidnapping a drow and of Shelly helping him.

So we then questioned Jaraxle and he stated that he had been attacked and just had defended himself and later even helped Shelly to carry the drow to the healers. He even showed Iljian and me where they had fought and also Katina confirmed Jaraxle’s statement.

During the questioning a Drow spied on us and refused to leave and attacked Iljian and me. Iljian got wounded early in the fight and had to return to the healers while I fought on for some time until Dawn came looking for me and the Drow fled.

Iljian issued a warrant for the drow and she might be a friend of Vierna and doing her bidding.

Iljian was not seriously hurt and questioned Shelly and Jaraxle then further and despite his different opinion I said that I see nay reason to accuse Jaraxle of kidnapping.

I think Iljian is right in his Judgements he did of Faeryl and Jaraxle and I want to recommend him for doing a very thorough investigation.

Town was busy again and full with the Hallows eve festival and I retired after my shift ended.
I saw Gerek out of town but was too tired to bring him in for his assault on Sally.

Quote:

Today was the punishment of the criminal Iglata and so we got all available guards prepared for duty, as we expected troubles.

John helped me to set up the stocks and meanwhile the Templars spoke to Lady Moiraine about further investigating the Iglata case.
A crowd had soon gathered near the jail and we brought out Iglata and chained him to the stocks where our new jailer then punished him with forty five lashes.

After the lashes he was dragged to the blacksmith where two hot irons waited to brand his palms. The crowd was quite angry at him though and many of them demanded that he was to be killed.

Through all that we guards managed to keep the prisoner safe and then returned him to his cell and the crowd slowly dissipated.

We had gotten a notice that one of our guards had been captured by the Yew militia, but before we could send someone to investigate it, a yewian guard asked if we had any of theirs in a cell.
After a short talk we all recognised that someone had played both of us as fools and wanted to make us fight each other.
Further investigation will be needed to find out who was behind this ruse and the yewian left satisfied after checking that neither side had any prisoners of the other.

Faeryl was then seen entering the town and Iljian, John and me surrounded her and tried to arrest her. She dicided to try and run for it, but after a quick chase Iljian managed to knock her out and we put her in cell number one.

Lady Reann then talked to her and set the sentence the same as Iglatas and it will be done as soon as possible.

The rest of my duty was fairly quiet and uneventful.

Kaelyn

*wearily Kaelyn puts the pen down and rubbs her tired eyes. Thinking about what a terrible day it had been. She had tried to poison Iglata, but somehow he must have known something was wrong and had refused to eat anything of the food she had brought him. At first when she had reentered and seen it, she had considered using her sword to kill him, but then reliefed she had taken the food away and almost fled the cell with it.

He was still alive and she had not killed him after all. Though she had confessed all of it to Lady Reann afterwards and expected to receive a severe punishment, she had been surprised by her understanding and kind words.
Afterwards she had confessed to the two knights Sir Medric and Athos and had asked for their advice and they had tried their best.

In the end it was the question of sacrificing her heart for stopping Iglata and after thinking of all the people she would lose she knew that she could not pay the price.

Relieved about her failure Kaelyn walks out of town to find some rest in the arms of her beloved.*

When I got on duty all was quiet and Lady Reann was doing some work in her office.
We chatted a little and had an eye on Tammy who was training with Hugo in the woods and then I had a meeting with Sir Abronsius.

After the meeting I returned to duty and found lotsof people at the gate and the marksmen had built up some barricades for training.

I was talking with Lady Kimi when I heard some fighting outside and ran out to see what was happening.
Vesperians with the help of Draconi Templers were attacking and slowly pushing our forces back. I rushed at the attackers and tried to stop their advancement when a blow to my shield made me stumble and something hard hit my unprotected side, knocking me unconscious.

When I got back to my senses the fight was over and the Vesperians had withdrawn, but many of us were hurt and needed the attention of healers.

Below is a sketch of the aftermath of the fight.

I headed to the healers an decided that as seemingly Vesper was willing to declare war it was nescessary to ban the personal of the Swaggers and the Draconi Templars too from town.

After getting patched up at the healers and drawing up the documents I returned to the gate to check if all was well again.

Gerek had arrived and was seemingly unhappy about the ban.
His employer at the swaggers was also at the gate, asking about the ban and after hearing from me decided to fire Gerek so he could enter the town.

I ask the guards to keep their eyes and ears open and if you learn that Gerek still works with Vesper he is to be thrown out immediately.

Rest of my shift was quiet and me and Alusair chatted with Zefar, Kimi and Dotiie until we went off duty.

Kaelyn

*Kaelyn lay in the bed thinking about her meeting with Abronsius. She had confessed to him about the necklace and the dreams, but he had not seemed too worried and was more interested in the necklace than in her.

She had done as he advised and put the necklace away for her sleep, but she had not managed to fall asleep and after trying for some hours finally had put it on and fell asleep in minutes.

With her sleep though her dreams returned about the tower and the conversations. She enjoyed looking over the lush lands when she looked outside in her dream, but could not manage to ignore the voices arguing behind her. She tried to understand what was being said but she only could make out a few words which were like, ‘Ilshen you have to see reason.’
‘Sacrifices will have to be made if we are to survive.’
‘We can only try our best, you know this better than we all do.’

These and similar sentences were what she thought she heard before waking up, the necklace weighing heavy on her.

She sat up and quietly went to the desk to write down her dream as she had promised.

About four in the morning I awoke from a dream about Montor. I think I heard Ilshen and some other argue about something.
‘Ilshen you have to see reason.’
‘Sacrifices will have to be made if we are to survive.’
‘We can only try our best, you know this better than we all do.’

Such things were mentioned in my dream before I awoke.

Closing the book and returning quietly to bed Kaelyn tried to snatch more sleep before another day of duty would call upon her*

*a public note is posted throughout Trinsic*

Until further notice any Vesperian militia is banned from entering the Duchy
Any Vesperian militia seen on Duchy lands are free to be attacked and stand under no protection.
Added to this are now also the Swaggers personal and associates until the conflict is resolved.
Also included are the Dragoni Templars who attacked too.

Kaelyn, Captain of the Duchy Guards

My shift was quiet today and there is nothing to report.

I got a descrition of tammy about the man that attacked her, Sir Janus and Hugo in Trinsic.
From her description it was a rather tall muscular man who called himself Gerard, but nay must be his real name. He has white long hair and wears silver platemail and a grey kilt and doublet.

I saw this man before entering Trinsic, but nay had a description yet.
He left he town soon afterwards though and I had nay reports of any troubles.

I advise that his punishment is a fine of 2000 gold and an hour on stocks.

*Before Kaelyn went to sleep this night she took some of the sleeping draught and fell into a heavily dreamless sleep.

Felt dizzy when I got on duty because of the tea I drank yesterday to sleep properly, but was fine enough to stay on duty.
Iljian, Dawn, Kadul and Lady Reann were already on duty and all was fine.

So I went to the Rose and talked to lady Gwen about Vesper and she said that she would stop trading with the Swaggers until the matter was resolved.

Town was pretty quiet and the shift looked as if I may manage nay to get beat up for once when Tammy came and told me and Iljian that she had seen Vesperians
Lining up at the Swaggers.
Hoping that it may be just a drill we looked about and met Lady Reann and informed her.
Before we could do anything we met the Vesperian force which considered of about ten militia near the healers.

They demanded that some criminals be handed over to them and that they could search the town and arrest the ones they wanted.

I refused and a fight almost started, until lady Reann intervened and asked for a talk at the jail.
I still nay see a reason what there was to be talked about but Iljian and me got ordered to the west gate.

As Hanse and Reann went to talked Iljian and me held the Vesperians in check and saw that they nay made any more trouble than normally.

Lady Reann returned then and to my annoyance stated that them could search the place, but before I could do anything Vesper headed outside the west gate and checked the vicinity.

I was comfortable with that, but then they declared that they wanted to enter town and I stated that I would nay allow that and that I would fight them.

Below is a sketch of the Vesperians outside the gate.

Hanse ordered that I should be attacked first and the fight started. I managed to hold out a minute and luckily some marksmen and Kaldorians arrived to help.
But my luck ran out quickly and three Vesperians or so caught up to me.
One tripped me and while I blocked one hit with my shield something hard hit my head and I fell unconscious.

When I awoke the fight was over, but it had taken a heavy toll on us all.
All around there were wounded people and the healers were busy to comfort the wounded.
But we had somehow managed to throw the attackers back and chase them off Duchy lands.

I went to the healers where them told me that I had a slight concussion and some minor cuts and they let me go after I paid them their fee.

I met Tammy at the west gate who informed me that she and some others had visited Vesper before and beat up Hanse and two others.
Seemingly this then led the Vesperians to come to Trinsic and look for the ones that had attacked them.

Sir Ikus came then and talked to a Vesperian woman who claims that it is all Hanse’s fault and that Twothumb nay has any control over the militia anymore and that we might be needed to help the baron to regain his power.

As I was still pretty shaken I retired earlier.

Kaelyn

*Kaelyn slept uneasy again this night and dreamt about Montor again.
She was standing in a big room somewhere high, probably a tower.
Behind her there was arguing again, about forces that threatened the town and what could possible be done.
Two maybe three people spoke urgently at one woman, trying to persuade her to give in and sacrifice something so the further destruction could be stopped or delayed.

In her dream Kaelyn managed to turn slowly and finally managed to catch a glimpse of the figure the people were talking to.
It was an old woman with long white and silvery hair. She looked frail but still radiated power from every expression she made.
It seemed that she was indecisive what to do, as if not being able to decide what would be the best for her people.

The other people talking to the woman and calling her Ilshen were hidden behind a hazy mist and Kaelyn could not see them clearly, but it seems they were urging Ilshen to something.
Ilshen though looked undecided as if something evil would come form their suggestions and before any decision was made Kaelyn awoke.

It was morning and the sun was up, promising a fine day.
She felt quite well and took her diary out to note down the dream.
‘I saw Ilshen tonight. She was old and looking weary and seemed to stand before a dreadful decision.
I still nay know what they are arguing about, but it seems as if the decision would decide over the lives of quite a lot of people and that there is nay fine solution.’

Closing her dream diary Kaelyn then started to go on about her normal chores.*

Duty started as usual pretty quiet and safe, except some minor incident when Tammy’s chair got missing and Hugo got accused of taking it.
In the end it was all sorted out and things went quieter again.

Rayden was caught in town and as there was a warrant out for him I put him on the stocks and he got his punishment of fifteen lashes and stocks time.

Below is a sketch of the stocks

As he hit me in the face when I chained him to the stocks I added an additional lash to his punishment.
He fell unconscious after the fourteenth or fifteenth lash though and so I hit him around his ears, so he remembers next time nay to fight his sentence.

Rest of the duty is quiet and I take the time to write this report.

*few sentences are added to the report with a different handwriting*
Captain Kaelyn was seriously hurt by a Vesperian attack and is at the healers. It seems the Vesperians looked for some fugitives and attacked anyone they found in town with no consideration. Many people were hurt, but luckily I have not heard of any critically injuries and hope it stays so.

*In Kaelyn’s dream she was in Montor again looking out the window. She could hear voices behind her talking urgently, when some roaring outside grabbed her attention. Looking outside over the lake she saw steam rising from it and people fleeing in panic.
Some sort of thick threads seemed to be moving in the steam and as she looked closer she recognised a huge Kraken made out of fire whose arms started to grab at the buildings close to the water.
One of its fiery tentacles rose to the tower and came closer and closer and Kaelyn woke up with a muffled cry from her dream.

Soaked in sweat she lay down on her bed and fell into an exhausted fever dream.

In this dream the healers building where she was resting in, was floating in the water and Gregor was steering it through the streets of Trinsic. Things were swimming in the streets and Kaelyn slowly edged closer to the water to see what these things were. Something huge was moving below her and as she tried to get a closer look to identify the thing, when a huge eye of a kraken rose out of the water besides her.
Tentacles swung out of the water as if trying to grab her, but she could not manage to move.
The Kraken opened its mouth as if to eat her, paused then though and started to speak in a high pitched voice, as if of a child.
‘Kaelyn how good to see you’. Do not be afraid and lie back and let Erwin read something to you’
With those words one of the tentacles lifted her and put her into one of the beds. As soon as she lay in the bed Erwin the healer guildmaster cam over and told her that he would read to her the wise words of the saints.

He started reading from a book, but Kaelyn could not understand anything and as she looked at the book she noticed that it was a cookbook, like the one her mother had had to teach her cooking.
Although she could not understand a word the words made her sleepy and she fell asleep in her dream.

Kaelyn slept peacefully for a few hours and woke late the following day, weak and still a little feverish*

*a note is added to the report*

Monday 12th Feb Trinsic Training, to be run by Dolittle.
Meet at Trinsic Moongate at 20.30 Please pass on to your comrades.

I was still weak and had a slight fever when I got on duty.
Thank the gods all was fine and Dawn and Iljian were on duty and handling all the necessary things.

Some woman came to me about renting the room besides the Tinker’s but else it was pretty fine. Thorien made some slight trouble with nay disarming, but I am nay sure I should write a warrant for him yet.

I got a note from Spiritwood saying the missing banker James Kerr was found murdered there and I asked Iljian to get some guards together to investigate it.

Sir Ikus was here and it seems he wants to strike a deal with Vesper.
We hand over Tammy, Taryn and Tessah and get Hanse Davion in return.

I am nay sure why that should make up for all, but then I am nay a noble with their own ideas.

A Vesperian was caught in the city and as he was nay important enough to arrest him and beating him up nay enough I decided to hand him to Tammy and Taryn. They shackled him and may be able to trade him so these silly attacks may end on Trinsic.

Below is a sketch of the shackling of the Vesperian

They took him off Duchy lands and I have nay idea what happened to him.
Rest of my duty was quiet and I left sooner as I felt the fever rising.

*a note is sent addressed to the Trinsic guard officer*

We have heard about the bank robbery in Trinsic and also that one of the employees has been missing for some days now.
I am sad to inform you that we have found the corpse of a man we believe to be James Kerr yesterday in the woods near Spiritwood.
He was found with stabbing wounds in his back this morning by a woodworker and brought to the constable office for identification.

We found several papers with his name on his body and also a diary.
A more detailed report about the body is in my office and can be looked upon there.

If someone that knows him personally can visit and identify him for us, so we can return his body then to his family.

Tom Mandrake, Constable of Spiritwood

When I got on duty all was quiet and Lady Reann was doing some work in her office. We chatted a little and had an eye on Tammy who was training with Hugo in the woods and then I had a meeting with Sir Abronsius. After the meeting I returned to duty and found lotsof people at the gate and the marksmen had built up some barricades for training. I was talking with Lady Kimi when I heard some fighting outside and ran out to see what was happening. Vesperians with the help of Draconi Templers were attacking and slowly pushing our forces back. I rushed at the attackers and tried to stop their advancement when a blow to my shield made me stumble and something hard hit my unprotected side, knocking me unconscious. When I got back to my senses the fight was over and the Vesperians had withdrawn, but many of us were hurt and needed the attention of healers. Below is a sketch of the aftermath of the fight. I headed to the healers an decided that as seemingly Vesper was willing to declare war it was nescessary to ban the personal of the Swaggers and the Draconi Templars too from town. After getting patched up at the healers and drawing up the documents I returned to the gate to check if all was well again. Gerek had arrived and was seemingly unhappy about the ban. His employer at the swaggers was also at the gate, asking about the ban and after hearing from me decided to fire Gerek so he could enter the town. I ask the guards to keep their eyes and ears open and if you learn that Gerek still works with Vesper he is to be thrown out immediately. Rest of my shift was quiet and me and Alusair chatted with Zefar, Kimi and Dotiie until we went off duty. Kaelyn Kaelyn lay in the bed thinking about her meeting with Abronsius. She had confessed to him about the necklace and the dreams, but he had not seemed too worried and was more interested in the necklace than in her. She had done as he advised and put the necklace away for her sleep, but she had not managed to fall asleep and after trying for some hours finally had put it on and fell asleep in minutes. With her sleep though her dreams returned about the tower and the conversations. She enjoyed looking over the lush lands when she looked outside in her dream, but could not manage to ignore the voices arguing behind her. She tried to understand what was being said but she only could make out a few words which were like, ‘Ilshen you have to see reason.’ ‘Sacrifices will have to be made if we are to survive.’ ‘We can only try our best, you know this better than we all do.’ These and similar sentences were what she thought she heard before waking up, the necklace weighing heavy on her. She sat up and quietly went to the desk to write down her dream as she had promised. About four in the morning I awoke from a dream about Montor. I think I heard Ilshen and some other argue about something. ‘Ilshen you have to see reason.’ ‘Sacrifices will have to be made if we are to survive.’ ‘We can only try our best, you know this better than we all do.’ Such things were mentioned in my dream before I awoke. Closing the book and returning quietly to bed Kaelyn tried to snatch more sleep before another day of duty would call upon her a public note is posted throughout Trinsic Until further notice any Vesperian militia is banned from entering the Duchy Any Vesperian militia seen on Duchy lands are free to be attacked and stand under no protection. Added to this are now also the Swaggers personal and associates until the conflict is resolved. Also included are the Dragoni Templars who attacked too. Kaelyn, Captain of the Duchy Guards a permit Gerek is no longer working at the Swaggers and is hereby allowed entry on Duchy lands. If he associates himself with Vesper again this permit is void and he is to be thrown off Duchy lands. Kaelyn Captain of the Duchy Guards

My shift was quiet today and there is nothing to report. I got a descrition of tammy about the man that attacked her, Sir Janus and Hugo in Trinsic. From her description it was a rather tall muscular man who called himself Gerard, but nay must be his real name. He has white long hair and wears silver platemail and a grey kilt and doublet. I saw this man before entering Trinsic, but nay had a description yet. He left he town soon afterwards though and I had nay reports of any troubles. I advise that his punishment is a fine of 2000 gold and an hour on stocks. Kaelyn Before Kaelyn went to sleep this night she took some of the sleeping draught and fell into a heavily dreamless sleep. Her dream diary states ‘No dreams tonight after taking the sleeping draught and I feel better rested’ a permit Fabienne is no longer working at the Swaggers and is hereby allowed entry on Duchy lands. If he associates himself with Vesper again this permit is void and he is to be thrown off Duchy lands. Kaelyn Captain of the Duchy Guards

Felt dizzy when I got on duty because of the tea I drank yesterday to sleep properly, but was fine enough to stay on duty. Iljian, Dawn, Kadul and Lady Reann were already on duty and all was fine. So I went to the Rose and talked to lady Gwen about Vesper and she said that she would stop trading with the Swaggers until the matter was resolved. Town was pretty quiet and the shift looked as if I may manage nay to get beat up for once when Tammy came and told me and Iljian that she had seen Vesperians Lining up at the Swaggers. Hoping that it may be just a drill we looked about and met Lady Reann and informed her. Before we could do anything we met the Vesperian force which considered of about ten militia near the healers. They demanded that some criminals be handed over to them and that they could search the town and arrest the ones they wanted. I refused and a fight almost started, until lady Reann intervened and asked for a talk at the jail. I still nay see a reason what there was to be talked about but Iljian and me got ordered to the west gate. As Hanse and Reann went to talked Iljian and me held the Vesperians in check and saw that they nay made any more trouble than normally. Lady Reann returned then and to my annoyance stated that them could search the place, but before I could do anything Vesper headed outside the west gate and checked the vicinity. I was comfortable with that, but then they declared that they wanted to enter town and I stated that I would nay allow that and that I would fight them. Below is a sketch of the Vesperians outside the gate. Hanse ordered that I should be attacked first and the fight started. I managed to hold out a minute and luckily some marksmen and Kaldorians arrived to help. But my luck ran out quickly and three Vesperians or so caught up to me. One tripped me and while I blocked one hit with my shield something hard hit my head and I fell unconscious. When I awoke the fight was over, but it had taken a heavy toll on us all. All around there were wounded people and the healers were busy to comfort the wounded. But we had somehow managed to throw the attackers back and chase them off Duchy lands. I went to the healers where them told me that I had a slight concussion and some minor cuts and they let me go after I paid them their fee. I met Tammy at the west gate who informed me that she and some others had visited Vesper before and beat up Hanse and two others. Seemingly this then led the Vesperians to come to Trinsic and look for the ones that had attacked them. Sir Ikus came then and talked to a Vesperian woman who claims that it is all Hanse’s fault and that Twothumb nay has any control over the militia anymore and that we might be needed to help the baron to regain his power. As I was still pretty shaken I retired earlier. Kaelyn Kaelyn slept uneasy again this night and dreamt about Montor again. She was standing in a big room somewhere high, probably a tower. Behind her there was arguing again, about forces that threatened the town and what could possible be done. Two maybe three people spoke urgently at one woman, trying to persuade her to give in and sacrifice something so the further destruction could be stopped or delayed. In her dream Kaelyn managed to turn slowly and finally managed to catch a glimpse of the figure the people were talking to. It was an old woman with long white and silvery hair. She looked frail but still radiated power from every expression she made. It seemed that she was indecisive what to do, as if not being able to decide what would be the best for her people. The other people talking to the woman and calling her Ilshen were hidden behind a hazy mist and Kaelyn could not see them clearly, but it seems they were urging Ilshen to something. Ilshen though looked undecided as if something evil would come form their suggestions and before any decision was made Kaelyn awoke. It was morning and the sun was up, promising a fine day. She felt quite well and took her diary out to note down the dream. ‘I saw Ilshen tonight. She was old and looking weary and seemed to stand before a dreadful decision. I still nay know what they are arguing about, but it seems as if the decision would decide over the lives of quite a lot of people and that there is nay fine solution.’ Closing her dream diary Kaelyn then started to go on about her normal chores.

Duty started as usual pretty quiet and safe, except some minor incident when Tammy’s chair got missing and Hugo got accused of taking it. In the end it was all sorted out and things went quieter again. Rayden was caught in town and as there was a warrant out for him I put him on the stocks and he got his punishment of fifteen lashes and stocks time. Below is a sketch of the stocks As he hit me in the face when I chained him to the stocks I added an additional lash to his punishment. He fell unconscious after the fourteenth or fifteenth lash though and so I hit him around his ears, so he remembers next time nay to fight his sentence. Rest of the duty is quiet and I take the time to write this report. few sentences are added to the report with a different handwriting Captain Kaelyn was seriously hurt by a Vesperian attack and is at the healers. It seems the Vesperians looked for some fugitives and attacked anyone they found in town with no consideration. Many people were hurt, but luckily I have not heard of any critically injuries and hope it stays so. In Kaelyn’s dream she was in Montor again looking out the window. She could hear voices behind her talking urgently, when some roaring outside grabbed her attention. Looking outside over the lake she saw steam rising from it and people fleeing in panic. Some sort of thick threads seemed to be moving in the steam and as she looked closer she recognised a huge Kraken made out of fire whose arms started to grab at the buildings close to the water. One of its fiery tentacles rose to the tower and came closer and closer and Kaelyn woke up with a muffled cry from her dream. Soaked in sweat she lay down on her bed and fell into an exhausted fever dream. In this dream the healers building where she was resting in, was floating in the water and Gregor was steering it through the streets of Trinsic. Things were swimming in the streets and Kaelyn slowly edged closer to the water to see what these things were. Something huge was moving below her and as she tried to get a closer look to identify the thing, when a huge eye of a kraken rose out of the water besides her. Tentacles swung out of the water as if trying to grab her, but she could not manage to move. The Kraken opened its mouth as if to eat her, paused then though and started to speak in a high pitched voice, as if of a child. ‘Kaelyn how good to see you’. Do not be afraid and lie back and let Erwin read something to you’ With those words one of the tentacles lifted her and put her into one of the beds. As soon as she lay in the bed Erwin the healer guildmaster cam over and told her that he would read to her the wise words of the saints. He started reading from a book, but Kaelyn could not understand anything and as she looked at the book she noticed that it was a cookbook, like the one her mother had had to teach her cooking. Although she could not understand a word the words made her sleepy and she fell asleep in her dream. Kaelyn slept peacefully for a few hours and woke late the following day, weak and still a little feverish *a note is added to the report* Monday 12th Feb Trinsic Training, to be run by Dolittle. Meet at Trinsic Moongate at 20.30 Please pass on to your comrades. Kaelyn

I was still weak and had a slight fever when I got on duty. Thank the gods all was fine and Dawn and Iljian were on duty and handling all the necessary things. Some woman came to me about renting the room besides the Tinker’s but else it was pretty fine. Thorien made some slight trouble with nay disarming, but I am nay sure I should write a warrant for him yet. I got a note from Spiritwood saying the missing banker James Kerr was found murdered there and I asked Iljian to get some guards together to investigate it. Sir Ikus was here and it seems he wants to strike a deal with Vesper. We hand over Tammy, Taryn and Tessah and get Hanse Davion in return. I am nay sure why that should make up for all, but then I am nay a noble with their own ideas. A Vesperian was caught in the city and as he was nay important enough to arrest him and beating him up nay enough I decided to hand him to Tammy and Taryn. They shackled him and may be able to trade him so these silly attacks may end on Trinsic. Below is a sketch of the shackling of the Vesperian They took him off Duchy lands and I have nay idea what happened to him. Rest of my duty was quiet and I left sooner as I felt the fever rising. Kaelyn a note is sent addressed to the Trinsic guard officer We have heard about the bank robbery in Trinsic and also that one of the employees has been missing for some days now.
