Legends.
I'm not really sure what to say about the last couple of days. I reached a new power tier again-- this one monumental in it's importance. I learned how to mimic the dead I summon. my Master came to help me learn this, and got an offer to purchase me, which he declined.Hunting with my Master...well I'd hunted with Vlaacor, and that was nice, but hunting with Jax..there was no comparison. Oh, and I had another fruitless trip into that damned Nektropos castle. I hate that place, so badly. 7 trips and I still have not accomplished either of my objectives there.
Naexia and I met up with Raranak in East Freeport and Raranak decided to run away rather than take us up on our offer. I fell asleep on top of Naexia that night, cradled by her warmth and softness. Yes, I think that serving Jax has some definite perks.
The Lord Commander made Bradoc an officer. That hurt. That really really hurt. No recognition of my deeds, but he promotes a human who hasn't done a tenth of what I have over me. I guess the Lord Commander... I don't know. I'm very angry with him. Jax held me and listened and reminded me m hat I do have options. But I want to be a good Knight so badly. I know he'll protect me, I trust him. The Lord Commander is his ally. Well, maybe he's already told him. I don't know.
I've also been learning a lot from Nintoshi about my Dark Father. The more I learn, the more I discover that I am just not a prime example of one of his children. Nintoshi says that all of my flaws can be overcome... but as Raranak says, I'm not exactly sure that they are flaws.
What was the other big thing. Oh. Nilok is bonding with Xeia. That. hurt. I would have expected Nilok to tell me. But Xeia just let it out in the middle of the guild hall and expected me..well i don't know what she expected. Raranak came to pick up the pieces this time. my Master says that Nilok is nothing but trouble and to not get lost in my emotions for him.
Speaking of emotions, my Master seems to think my modest abilities with them are something important. He wants to know more about my Heritage. I asked Dark about this last night when he came to teach me and he frowned and said, "There was once a legend of an assassin who came across an angel while she was bathing. In a tree lay her feathered robe, that would allow her entrance back into the heavenly lands. This assassin stole that feathered robe, and when the angel came to him, asking for it back, he denied her, collaring her instead and making of her his slave. He fathered many children upon her, and all of them possessed unique abilities courtesy of their angelic mother. However, one day the angel came across her robe, breaking her collar, killing the assassin and returning to heaven, leaving her children in Neriak." He looked at me again frowning, "However that is just a legend. Back to your studies."
