A few days layer, we all left the village by the brook. I had carefully packaged all the old books from Temple of Naigha, because those went back hundreds of years and they contain the births and deaths and weddings and everything else the priestesses noted. The oldest books were…

I’m a very scary woman now, at least to some people. I can kill with an embrace… But that comes later. After we’d agreed to meet with Black Cynla and crew westwards, we backtracked, got on our horses and went to look for more people. Within a day, we’d found…

The next morning we left Lady Hinla’s village, together with our crowd and the Priestess of the neighbouring village, not the leper village as I had thought originally, and went on to the next village. It was less than a morning’s travel, so we arrived nice and early. The contrast…

Today, I bought a bottle of white port wine, having been of the opinion that that probably is the drink Khushi likes best. I’m a bit tired of not being able to have a guest and giving her of the best… So let Khushi be our guest for a bit.

And then we encountered a problem… A wide valley with steep sides running north to south blocked us. There wasn’t any way we could get the cart down to the valley, where we could see there was a village, with houses half in the hillside, half built out. It was…

When we arrived at Lady Jerna’s White House, I was put in bed immediately, and I think Jeran and the others who had helped with the healing of chalk pit workers, too. I slept, slept, slept, slept and slept! Until mid-morning, when I noticed that Moyri was toying with the…

This journey promises to be so much more important than even the journey during which I married my wife. We’re so many people, we’re so much more important to the people we visit… I had hardly realized how important until we arrived at lord Rovin’s White House. That’s where Fian…

The Feast of Timoine starts at dawn, of course, when the children gather to go into the nearest wood, and celebrate Timoine as only they know how to do, and then they come back to town, singing songs. Today the children from the outlying villages also came back to Selday…
