Been thinking about our fight against the Akaviri. I've got opinions. Think I'll write them down. The whole damned war could have been avoided if those idiots in Windhelm had the sense to throw the Snakes back into the sea. Shor take them! Still wish Jorunn had moved to reinforce Windhelm. Lost some good men that day. Jorunn fortified Riften, but the Snakes rolled right past. Why go straight to the Ashlands? The fighting south of Riften, north of Fort Virak, isn't given enough respect. Those men were pinned and outmanned, and still they held.
