In the false bottom of the trunk, below the few treasures that the small one can dare call hers, is hidden a leatherbound journals covered in animal hide. In it are thoughts penned by s'jira.

The dreams have come again to this girl. Of blades against blades and one finding the heart of Master Kiroth. His blood spilling into the ground, blackening the dirt with it can still be seen as if it were yesterday.

It frightens this heart to know the memory will not go away. Another Master was in one of the dreams months ago, of Master Travanix. His voice is known to these ears and could be heard in that dream.

Not a night of complete rest has been able to be this girl's in almost two months. But it is not complained of to Master Panther.

A coin was found in the marketplace with a dragon that had two heads on it!

It was taken to the old fisherwoman and left under the door of the place she calls her home at the wharfs. To have tried to give it to the elder Mistress would have invited trouble, a girl thinks.

The coin will help with foodstuffs and other things the fisherwoman might need when fish cannot be brought in because of the cold.

A girl saw Master Panther tonight! With much to do with chores at the inn, helping with trader-errands of several merchants and the butcher, and visits to the fisherwoman there has been little time to find him in these past weeks.

This heart lightened to see that looked very well. At his wrist, the gift of the wristband made for him by this one is worn.

At one time during the night in the common room while he was there, his tail swatted at these legs. At first there was such a startle in this heart that knees could have met the floor! But to realize it was just a pat, a tap of it on his part and heart eased.

It is thought that Master Panther does not know yet what to do with this girl, so often a path is apart from his to offer him plenty of room to spend time with those better known to him.

A girl writes much this night! It is time for sleep with an early waking in the morning.

The fisherwoman was hurt today. A cart with its horse wilded and scared ran down the elder Mistress.
Return from the docks was not until after dark from helping her to her bed. A girl ran to find a healer who splinted the fisherwoman's leg.

It was worse than the time Master Kurr fell down the steps and broke his ribs. This one will see that she visits the fisherwoman every morning until the eldress can move about again on her own.

The dancer that was with the caravan, the one that dances, was seen in the inn the other night! Oh a girl dances about just to think about it!

A long talk was had between the dancing Mistress and this girl. She has agreed to teach this one how to dance. It is well understood that it will take a long time to learn.

This is not yet told to Master Panther with a hope to surprise him with learned knowledge when Mistress Althrae says a girl is good enough.

Another eldress was met today. Never seen before or heard of, but when a this girl was in the inn, the old Mistress gave a bundle of silk material as a gift.

The colors are vibrant and the silk is very fine. It will take a while, but with patience and a lot of work, this one thinks a shift and a dress can be made from them.

One's heart stopped a moment this day. A Mistress passed this one on the stairs in the Red Dragon and wanted to know if this heart was somehow ill towards her.

Gods aid a girl, but it is even wondered who the Mistress is. If she is seen again, one will gather the courage to ask what wrong has been laid by this girl at her feet.
~~
Panther offered boots to this girl! A present better than the old boots one had. The leather is sturdy and the wool within is very warm. A couple of hugs were dared of him, but no more. For trade-errands, these boots will keep feet very well protected!

Thoughts are tangled tonight until one feels nothing more than a child in so large and hectic a place.

Master Panther was in the inn tonight. He has about him a handsomeness in wilds that does not go unmissed by women. Not even this meager one. Whenever there was a chance to, he was watched. He is found quiet and strong, but distant, as if walls fortify a heart and soul. Perhaps it is that he still does not know what to do with a girl. Or, that this one does not know what to do with the path before her so many months to be working for the inn and a handful of others to help with running the errands. In his wake, a girl strives to learn him but much is still veiled between. A heart weighs heavily, sometimes, to know it was by necessity that he claimed this slave. There is worry that it still brings some discomfort to him. It is a worry that is kept quiet. Not all things are revealed with the wave of the hand or even in a month of talking.

The lovely Lady Elessaria was here tonight as well. How beautiful she is and must be the envy of so many! For a moment tonight, one thought she was angry with someone. Oh! And she wishes to speak quietly with this slave about something and is going to offer a gift. It is not known what it is, but waiting makes for bouncing on the toes!

Piper, the Potterwoman, said there is something she must speak with this girl about as well. It is suddenly wondered, in this moment, if a girl has done something wrong. But nothing ill comes to mind and so a heart hopes for the best.

Even in this room, while writing this, one is very embarrassed for making a fool of oneself tonight. A stranger was hearthside to see to the fire and this girl wasn't paying attention. This is not acceptable at all. What would the kennels Master have said? He would have shaken his head and said 'that slave must start her learning all over again -- or be sold for no more worth than a mule!'. The man's name seems to be Peridhel or Perindal. One will try to find out more and offer another apology for him having to pick up beads that scattered everywhere when the bag spilled tonight.

The fisherwoman's temper is suddenly remembered from this morning. Oh gods know that a girl is very imperfect, but still wears the lump of a soupbowl at the back of this head for asking one too many times if the elder Mistress was feeling better from the break in her leg a couple of days ago. It will be well remembered tomorrow to see to her needs, but not to hover and ask too much.

This head hurts. Perhaps tomorrow things will go better and that sleep comes well since there is much work as well as the learning from the Dancer to learn her art..

This body is exhausted and should be sleeping, but heart's thoughts are vibrant.

This night the one item that spoke word to all that claim on this girl belonged to Panther was returned to him. The necklace with the green cat's eye stone was placed in his hand.

Gods know that it was a very difficult thing. In giving it back to him, one is no longer slave to him. And, one will never be owned by another again. How this heart rejoices and weeps -- all at once!

Much hope has been quietly held within this heart that to give back the symbol that bound a girl to him would not unravel the tie that went otherwise unseen. Hope seems to be true in this. He did not leave this company but allowed the decision on this girl's part to remain.

Oh so tired but happy! There is great hope that dreams this night are good ones.

One has finished with everything for the day. Weather is too cold to wander about so to the inn and this room a girl stays as much as possible.

Twice in two days Panther has smiled. Panther. His name has been dared forthrightly three times already to him.

It is wondered if he knows of the lessons that the Dancer teaches, but it is still hoped that he does not. When Spring and the rains come, the gift is wished to be given to him of it.

Lady Elessaria was spoken with a couple of days ago. She has a soul within her that would make a warriror proud. Her words settle this heart greatly and hope is gently held to.

A girl is foolish! How could one not consider that there were others that care for him?

One woman touched him this night with the familiarity of a lover. And he did not shy away from it or detour it.

This should have been asked about. This should have been known by now but eyes must not have seen. Foolish child. So foolish to think that beyond kindness and caring for this one's well being that there might be more.

After last night, one was prepared to move what things are now personal and belongings. There was much confusion.

She had seen the woman so close to him last night that it left this heart confused and hurting. Child. That is what one feels like. A child that could not see before.

But tonight what was said of him, between us, gives hope again. It was not thought that there was caring beyond what a friend would have for another. But a kiss was given. But one gave a kiss to the elder woman that gave a gift. Perhaps Panther's kiss was just this. Others hug him and sit to his lap. It is possible that he is used to these things and the little kiss was like a handshake? A touch of a friend's shoulder?

Oh it is hoped that it meant more!

Patience. Patience and courage. One will have to know this more than anything, it seems, but it is difficult to know what to do or say. What can be said in such quiet between?

Tonight this one looked for him. A movement of shadow alone reminds of Panther. It is not silly or strange?

When he was not found, a walk along the river was taken. Though it has been cold, it brings life with it and does not drive others from moving about the great city.

In the morning, one will see if the Fisherwoman is healed enough to take the walk as well.

Such creatures! A girl has to remember where she is sometimes when a creature that is not Human is seen. From the stairs in the common room of the inn, she watched the great beast.

Tall and armored well enough for battle. Though it is thought the armor would only impede the fights of most he moved lightly in it.

--
This morning was spent with the Fisherwoman and anger is in this heart. She was already up and gone before the first of the morning light! A girl had to hunter her down by asking those at the docks if they had seen her.

Where she was found surprised this one, but those asked only laughed. She was in one of the dockside taverns, at the tenth hour of the morning, downing whiskey and playing at cards!

The fisherwoman was not happy that one found her so easily, but a girl stayed to make certain she was well.
