  • The Personal Journal of Kathryn Blake

    " It's been many a day since I opened this book and wrote in it, so I think I should take the time to at least jot down a few words...

    The war is finally over, at least this war, though dozens of threats to Sundren still exist some nearer some farther, I find myself tired all over some days, I take what comfort I can from those as close to me as they can be. Mostly these days those people are reduced to Osclow, Hano, and Tamryn. I've been trying to get to know some of the newer arrivals, but after seeing so many fall in this harsh land.. there is a part of me that fears to get to know them.

    Sadly, Eira and I are at odds now, I knew it would come to this as I slowly watched the once passionate woman die in the freezing cold of Auril, the lose is just one more thing that weighs heavily on my mind. I wish I had an answer.. though perhaps it was simply arrogance to pit myself against a goddess.. despite what the young men sometimes say. A Tiefling in Black Armor provided the catalyst through deception to make Eira accuse me of betrayal, though I can't imagine I could have maintained closeness with her much longer, Auril has truly killed her compassion.

    I have taken to walking in disguise as a traveling bard, Josephine Martin, though few take notice which is how I'd prefer it. It's something of a relief to not be noticed in my usual red clothes, to be anonymous, I had forgotten how nice it was to not be well known, though Osclow and I have both found the ability to walk unobserved to be useful.

    Hano has had the death geas removed from him.. Tamryn is still absent searching for answers to Sundren's woes and Osclow's involved in a rather uncomfortable love triangle, that makes me want to hug and strangle him at the same time. I find myself lonely.

    Looking back on all I have written above, I realize that my mind is pretty jumbled, I hope that it does interfere with my work. I'll work more on this later. "

    What am I to be?

    I've spent a lot of time thinking about that question lately.

    I thought I could deny who I am, bury my own personal needs in the greater needs of the people of Sundren. The price of Sundren, as those who I am close to have called it. I did my absolute best to drown it. And I ended up paying a heavy price for it.

    I can't be just part of who I am. I am Kathryn Blake, Sorceress of Candlekeep, Dragonkin. I am recognized as being one of the most powerful workers of the weave in Sundren.. but I know what I need.

    I don't need power, I don't even want power. I simply need to have someone to have power over me.. someone who makes me feel safe... someone I can trust to submit my will too.

    I don't expect people to understand, and I don't expect people to admire me for it. I simply am what I am, and I'm content with that.

    Let other's judge, no corner of Sundren has not tasted my blood. Let them sneer, in the end they haven't earned the right to tell me that I'm an immoral woman.

    I proved that today I think. I gave up on the hope for my needs
    for the greater good of the people of Sundren. I am the one who cast down Samantha and ended her reign of terror, and I'm the one who stripped her evil book from her. I'm the one who turned her over to face justice.. and now instead of taking the power of her book, I shall turn that over as well. I could have traded it for what I need.. instead I will give it for the good of those people who mock and scorn me.

    So be it.. I've never asked for fame or power, I've only given the best of myself to them... and in the end doing that is part of who I am too.

    I feel content in my skin for the first time in a long time.
