| - II. 28th
Today my brothers and I are leaving from Carlin
to find a new place for us and our families.
None of the great Tibian cities have made us feel
at home yet. There must be something else, and we
will find it.
III. 5th
We've been at sea for a few days now. Time seems
endless, and so does the ocean. We have supplies
for 3 more weeks. Should we not find land within
the next week we will cancel our expedition to
make sure we get back home safely.
III. 8th
Still nothing... but the screams of seagulls and
the sound of the waves... we are still hoping.
III. 10th
We've spotted land! It's still a day away, but it
seems to be a really large island. Not only that,
we can also make out tall towers in the distance.
Strangely though, this city - or whatever
it is - can't be found on our map, despite its
obvious size.
III. 11th
We've arrived at the harbour of Yalahar, as the
inhabitants call it. Obviously large parts of
the city are destroyed and closed for the public.
We will stay in a tavern tonight - finally, a bed
again! - and then try to find a place to live in.
III. 14th
Finding a house seems to be harder than expected.
The inner city of Yalahar which seems safe and
rather wealthy has almost no place left, especially
not for outsiders as us. Maybe we can live in one
of the outer quarters, close to the city walls at
least.
III. 18th
Lersatio found an unoccupied house not too far away
from the centre. It is close to an alchemical lab.
Maybe we can even find some work there. Things are
looking great!
III. 20th
We've settled down and started the repair work
on the house. This may take a while, but we are
sending note to our families to come after us.
Arthei's wife Kala insisted to come with us right
from the start, so they are already together,
but I am starting to miss my girl immensely.
Oh sweet Melava, I hope you are well.
III. 21th
This place is not as good as it seemed. The
closeness to the alchemical laboratories proves
to be a constant menace and now I understand why
they didn't want it in the centre. Frequent
explosions are startling us during the whole day,
and even at nighttime there is a lot of noise
from the facilities. Due to these circumstances
we will probably try to find another place,
luckily we haven't put too much work into the
house, yet. Also, our families won't come, yet.
III. 30th
Oh god... something horrible happened and I've
not been able to write for a while... a week ago
there was a HUGE explosion in the night... fire
spread upon almost all houses nearby... we barely
escaped the flames... my hands are burnt, because
I pulled my brother out of the burning house and
we all are still coughing grey substance... Boreth
and Lersation got out with some scratches and burns,
but otherwise we three are fine. It's just Arthei...
he got burnt really badly... I barely recognise his
face... Kala is sitting at his bed 24 hours a day
with red swollen eyes and praying for his life. When
she falls asleep in exhaustion we are keeping watch.

THE FIRST DAY OF ETERNITY
I CAN SEE NOW. FOOLS. ALL OF YOU. HAHAHAHAHA.
