says to ALL: After a Long boring day of rain and paperwork ,
there had come the sounds of loud disputes.... outside My
Wagon... One of My crew... -Grey- appeared in the
doorway...wearing an apologetic smile....
“Lady Nyah” he said...
and I stood Making My way towards The flap That Sealed The
doorway....
”Arvid is sorting The Wagon for The return trip to the Three
Moons” a moment later I watched as Arvid disappeared down the
street like an eel sliding into mud....
I stepped outside to hear This dispute still continuing and it
was not long and I found myself adjudicating a Three way
dispute...Grey described it as a problem...I saw it was , rather
a Lack of communication...Two of the people spoke the Local
dialect with such fluency and speed...that The other Grasped no
more Then one word in ten...the frustration in communication had
all three frustrated....

says to ALL: The huge North man [ Grey], who probably knew No
more of this dialect other then “Tal” and “be well” and the two
of three crude phrases needed to accomplish immoral
transactions,was so wrapped up in fury that he was all but
speechless in His very own tongue...
The Outrider whos bountiful charms were seldom flawed By a
missing tooth... almost matched Grey s own in terms of
grammar... though Grey s language was immensely more colorful
and with better color and Detail...
Was then I moved to The steps to allow Grey The Outrider and the
young Warrior sort out the situation... The Young Man stood and
Listened You could see by the look on His face he was far off on
the complete conversation.....
Using alternate hands to quell the sputtering of Grey and The
Young Warrior..The Outrider concentrated his attentions On the
Young Warriors explanations...also taking consideration of what
The source [Grey] had said....
”She said,she said she would do it for a copper.... she did she
said so “
“then she did -revolting-things- under the table and made -it
fall over- the leg was now broken and The dishes fell – even my
large platter – the one I paid 2 coppers for... the Meat was
ruined... and even if That was not enough urts were all over it
snarling ...not wanting to give up such a good score....I was
bitten when I tried to seize it away from them... when all the
time that vile creature continued to try and get the copper I
had promised her...and THEN” …

says to ALL: {continued}
The young Warriors face was red with anger as he did his best to
Explain to The Outrider and Grey why he wanted the girl in
collar.... I covered My Mouth so I didnt say anything and just
watched as The two older men looked to One another with a slight
smile....that look of “Oh yes This has happened to us
before....... I wondered what would Happen next... relaxed Back
on the step I just Listened and watched

says to ALL:
Was then That Grey and The Outrider began to Laugh.... The Young
Warrior Looked at Them both with a -stern Stare-.... wondering
How Both Now could think it funny He had lost his coin and had
to fix a broken table.... and above all of that he had also had
been Bitten.....
"What is so funny" he asked
The Both men Moved close to The young Warrior who had had a few
skins of paga... and both turned with arms about His
sholders.... on either side They walked away wih him... still
laughing rather Loud...
"Do not fear Young man we shall sort it with yet another girl
for You...." and They rounded the corner and made way to the
gathering area....

says to ALL: At this time I moved The pen to My left hand in
order to scratch at the outside of my left thigh... I was
Wearing one of the item s that had been delivered in the
wagons..although they were well laundered and not infested with
some vermin...they were Made of course linen and had appeared to
have been starched with some substance derived from suls which
was irriating the Extreme.... I then placed the pen back in my
right hand....
Tell your Lady please I am still intact and not starving...." I
had a smile coat my lips as I continued...."Quiet different ...
in fact... The Home has and excellent cook....

says to ALL: Sealing this with a brisk stamp of My Half-Moon
signet,I then took down one of My ledgers and a List of Items
that I needed... also a List of those who were not in Your
employment any Longer..Due to The war more Then a score had been
lost to it in The past hands..
I paused for a Moment twiddling the quill.I had maybe preferred
That the winter mths had taken Them...But The honor was with
them Now They enjoyed There time in The Great COD... I was not
one to believe in curses... I continued to write notes to there
families...any debts owing had been paid with the sale of There
belongings and Now I would sort out coin That would need to be
forwarded to There families...many of which still resided in The
Out post....I then replaced the ledgers I had done the worst now
..... I paused and thought on Ol Josh...Illness and Death trod
close to a Warriors footsteps...but Honor was a Badge few could
wear.... this saddened me greatly... But regardless of the
season....these things happened...

says to ALL: A gentle rain began to fall outside once again...
the sound landing softly on the wagon.... my thoughts quickly
Drifted to -Rain-... a thing That would remind me of one
person....My heart sank....I was strong...i knew it.....nothing
ever seemed how it was... i knew this better then any...but
would remain in silence for it was mine No Others...
the sound of the rain soft on the window and the roof combined
with the soothing shuffle of parchment and scratch of quill
induced a pleasant sense of mindless sleeplessness.
... I placed The quill down and Moved to my cot... and sat
down... I didnt even remove my boots... Just lay.. and in
moments my mind was lost in The dreams that tortured my
soul[/center]
