The writing in here seems naturally neat, though the spelling itself is quite off. The first page is done with "Black Cherry" and silver dye as the ink.
..5th/1/1.
So, it's not the real date? So what. I don't know that sorts of stuff yet, I'm having enough trouble keeping up with what I ~do~ know, hence this journal. Bought it from the merchants district this afternoon.. now seems a good enough time to write as any.
What goes first? How I got here?
So, one minute I was travelling along on a boat, sitting under deck and drinking the storm out. (Godess I hate water..) Then cracking sound.. then I wake up and stumble through some ruins to run into a guard, who tells me to walk for ages till I hit a city of some sort.
And the first non guard I see? A Fox-man. I still can't remember what they're called, but I guess I owe it to Crow for trying to help me out.
Next.. er.. People, I guess.
Crow "Foxy" :So, first person I met was Crow. My first thought was that he was slightly arrogant. No, that's a lie. My first thought was "What the hell is that?". But I s'pose he's one of the closest things around her that I could call a friend, even if he did buy me a horse.. He's got a weird sense of humor, and can't sing, but he's daring and I like that. He's cute, but too.. fluffy. Literally.
Mars "Marcie": .. What in the hells? ... Seriously.. I don't know what to think of him. A close friend of Foxy's, we ended up spending a lot of time together and he was easier to tell things to than anyone else.. and then I found myself trying to be NICE? ~Me~?! And getting drowned in that demon thing for him?! And then he tells me.. Ugh.. I dunno what to think. And.. I kissed him. Shit.
...Right, I'll come back to this later...Since I can't spell any other names, harhar.. I'll read them somewhere sooner or later.
Events... Well, I went drinking with Foxy and met the dwarf, got my horse.. Godess, that hurt.. She looks almost just like Mia did.., Fought some goblins, met a black blood, ran for my life, stripped and waded in a stream, talked to Foxy, met Mars, played dice, killed a black blood, wandered in tunnels, came out in a creepy lab with "spiderman" Black bloods and a reborn lord.., Got to see the compound, Almost burnt off Mars's skin, Met the Orc, met some human (Cute.), became compounds un-official bartender, Met Nightmare and Auren, talked to Mars, Airship raid, Demon fighting, Met lots of people, Wandering, arguing, annoying Kolbold who almost killed me, Almost becoming a demon's pet, Mars winning my soul in a dice game, arguing, seeing nightmare again, bandits (Hate.), Saving Auren from a trap, Cat person talking about Mars's past, having the stupid conversation, the kiss, writing in this.
And other lesser things.
I miss Neverwinter.
~Aliah "Mia"

So, I haven’t written anything in.. ages. A month or more, I think, it has been. In fact, I don’t really know why I’m writing now. I’m not much of a writer, it’s not that I can’t find the words- it’s that they don’t exist. I guess after the ripping incident.. And.. I’m feeling what I’ve never felt before.. That a drawing alone isn’t enough.
Feelings.. That I haven’t felt while I’ve been known as “Mia”. These are “Aliah” feelings. I’m becoming too.. “Aliah”.
Failure. Self hatred. Disappointment. Depression. Self-conscious. Ugly. Care.
Everything I seem to do lately.. I mess up at. I try to do the right thing, jump forward and attack to save someone… I get in trouble. I try to hang back and save someone.. Get in trouble. I try to just save myself and do nothing.. Instead I get captured and what else? Get in trouble.
I couldn’t stand to listen. Listen to them bitching, about my failure. Yes, I /know/ I messed up. But you know why I didn’t run forward? I wanted you to get your weapons first so I didn’t get in trouble for that.. So I got captured. You were going to let me /die/.
Areth, might be the first person I’ve ever really /hated/. I just can not win with him and you know what? The only time I screw up is when he’s around, watching over my sholder! He’s so goddamn self confident.. I just feel like I can’t do /anything/ right for him, whether I’m trying or not..
S’pose I should explain what happened. You see, I was out grocery shopping, when I was approached by Foxy and someone. I think his name is Garrik.. I just remember him as the Worg-helmed guy with the huge hornyness. They asked me to help them with a job, getting a demon elf to help join a hunter, or something.. Big pay.
On the way to the compound to drop off my stuff, we got attacked a few times.. Turns out theirs a bounty on my head for 150gold and “Good times”. Need to find out why.
Anyways, we were going along well.. Then we ran into Areth. Or rather, he came after us. We travelled for a while.. And were doing okay.. Then he tried to /sell/ me as a /whore/. I of course, wanted to put a spider in his bag.. Reminder to self. He’s scared of them.
And when it came to the actual battle?. I let them go get their weapons first but I was grabbed by the demon elf. Of course, they don’t remember that ARETH was going to let him kill me, or that /I/ knocked him out. He doesn’t remember the time with the skeletons where I scared off one guy and helped kill the other. They remember me letting them go first and getting grabbed, me leaving the devil ontop of Crow when I couldn’t get near because Areth was pounding her head in, me going back to /save/ my friend and thereby “Making them come back for me”.
They left.. Now they're outside.. And I could hear them in the room.. About my failure. So I let them leave. I.. Ignored Crow and let them leave. Than sat to write here. But you know what? I got a Ruby out of it. So they can go screw themselves.
Maybe it is me. Maybe I am too impulsive..? I don’t know.. All this.. Caring stuff.. Been messing with my mind. Maybe I should worship a god. Leave my mind clear and what not. Eheh. Mia the Paladin? Going insane.
I guess I sound really pissed off, huh? Maybe I just had a bad week. Getting sent into my worst nightmare again.. Watching the horse die just like Imiari did and not being able to save her.. Getting so drunk I almost drowned myself.. And then kissing him on the cheek.
I don’t know what to think of the last one. Spur of the moment. He doesn’t really seem to care.. Doesn’t bother me. I’ll just keep my mouth shut and my head down.
Speaking of, I should probably leave this house now, before someone comes looking-
*The ink seems to be darker now, as if it was restarted*
Turns out they did know I was still there. I walked back to the compound.. My legs are killing me.. Hiding out in the Airship station with Chris and Link and a big damned bowl of chicken soup. But I do love the new armor I won on the Wheel of Fortune! Game. Mard says we have gambling problems. It’s not a problem till it effects others, I say.
Which reminds me. The new girl I was having a glare off with? The Pirate’s sister? She’s hunting practicers of Sorcery. I already told Ciara.. I can’t risk her getting hurt. One of the only people I give a slight care for in this place. But you know what? I might tell Larian. They all want to turn her in, but apart from being greedy, she’s not that bad really. Least that’s how Ruby and I see it.
Godamn waitress in the Ass stole from us. Said we didn’t pay, took the gold I paid her. And she charged me 60 gold for /one/ bottle. Now Colan thinks we’re thieves.. Hah. No surprise there.. Though I should of told Ruby about what I did and my thoughts of what could happen. She draws the weirdest lines through things. Like a discusssion of vampirisim turning into a discussion of horse breeding, or the cheek-kiss turning into something about Naked mole rats. I like her, though. She’s amusing, and she’s actually nice. To me. It’s possible.
Anyway, I’ll finish this later. I need to pack. I think I’ll move into the inn tomorrow, tell Crow I changed my mind and stay away from everyone for a while. Go visit Ruby. Maybe go look for me “weapon” of power or actually do some reading up on things, huh?
I miss Neverwinter.
~Mia.
P.S. Found out something that made me smile.. Ruby's like me. Her real name is Aria Rubato. But she says that girl is dead. Like Ali. Oh, and Foxy's real name? Jacob Isamour. I like his last name.
((Oh, and she meant she could hear them in the living room when she was in the bedroom. She didn't hear them outside, she was rambling about the other times she messed up))

*Neat drawings take up the majority of two pages here. A blue coloured egg, a winged snake type thing and a Winged Snake man with arms. Written carefully in the corner of one of the pages is the following*
Laurick[/b]
A gift from the godess Dianama to Highwind in return that he keeps “The Heart of Dianama”, the final key to her real heart, safe from Wesker. One of her four offspring, including one still in it’s egg, one that was corrupted into an Akumi’da who was slain and one who was cracked.
While in his egg, the sound he made was like a Grand Piano and rather musical. On hatching, he insisted on going outside and ate rapidly, then drank from the fountain outside the compound, which caused him to grow swiftly.
After explaining things to Mars about himself, he proceeded to throw up large amounts of water and when I last saw him, he had turned more humanoid looking, with arms..
Rather self proud and confident, amusing. Mars is keeping him hidden till Windy talks to him. My “Baby”.

((Note: Mia wouldn't actually write like this.. unless you know how her mind works or are willing to flip back and forth and read between drawings, it'd be hard to understand, as she writes things down as she learns or remembers them so it tends to jump back and forth. But for ease sake, I put it all under headings and didn't jump back and forth ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) )) The GiverThe entity known as “The Giver” is the essence of a dead god, trapped between planes in her own realm, said to once be the godess of luck, altered to a shadowed remain at the pershing of her true self. She grants or allows people their “desires”, asking the phrase “What is thy desire..?” Though the receiver must be wary of how they phrase their request, or else the effects could be dangerous, not unlike that of a Wish Spell. The most dangerous request to ask could be for “power”, while the safest is to go home. It is rumoured that looking upon her directly can cause foolishness. It is assumed she died during the Ark. She is also known as “Anira Veelam”.-Notes When I was in Legion, Xilar (I think that’s his name..) Came across a mirror unlike the others we had encountered. It asked him of his desire, which I think was power.. Idiot, and granted it - with bad results, Gadarane appeared. She then asked my desire, though now in a more male voice and granted that too, which was to go back to the compound safely and unfollowed. I think that was a linking mirror, alike to the one we found in Jeff’s Travelling Stockhouse.. Must talk to Derek on it soon.*There is a detailed drawing here, of a golden full length mirror on two legs. The surface appears to be swirling slowly, with no reflection of any kind. Down the left side of the page beside it are small notes. “- Surface felt like cold metal -No reflection -When ear is put to it, could hear a sort of.. Gloopy noise and someone said ‘…ire…” faintly. -When looking into it, you get the feeling that someone is trying to contact you mentally.”. Beside the golden mirror is a black mirror, almost identical, but with a grey swirling surface and a black dragon head on the top of the mirror. The notes are this time down the right hand side. “-Appears to be a linking mirror into Legion.. Perhaps part of him? -On looking into it, hands reached out and grabbed me, dragging me in. -On exiting, the mirror laughed and turned into a black dragon adult, flying away…” Below these drawings and notes is a full size drawing of a balor like thing, only a faint sketch as opposed to the normal detailed drawings, with “ I am Legion, for we are many“ Scrawled under* Legion/GadareneA creature thing.. Of some sort.. Made up of thousands of souls it had devoured. Don’t really know anything about it, despite having been inside him, where the souls kept trying to get us to “Join them”. Including him. How he could be inside himself? No idea. And he took the form of a mirror.. Then turned into a dragon and flew off.. And I spoke to the giver in there..? Hrn.
One of the places was a graveyardy place…I showed Jeff my list and he says all the graves on one half.. Are from the Graveyard in New Pherin..*Drawing here of a graveyard with two crypts, surrounded by trees and split into two halfs. Under the first half is a list of a few names, the dates of death all falling within the Arbon-Jaian Conflict. The other half has astrix and some circled names under it, a few of the circled last names including “ Dracheklinge” and “ d’Valron”* The Sword and VialOne of the encountered places within G was a crypt.. As I prepared to smash tombs in my usual way, I noticed one was different. It had five buttons on the front and as I pushed them, the symbol on the pushed one changed. Empty Diamond, Full Diamond, Sun, Moon, Heart and Spade. Apparently, from what I have seen, if you make a pattern something comes out.. A mixture of suns and moons got me this..*A coloured drawing of a brightly glowing vial, even through the dust on the glass* Elfy Boy got a spikey bracer from something.. One conbination shut the gates behind us and spades moved us.. And somehow, I can’t remember the combination, I got a sword hilt…*Here a drawing of a hilt, pommel,ect (Everything but the blade) Of a sword which looks to be quite old and dusty. The hilt has runes of some form of Draconic on it* Kain can’t read the runes, but says it’s an old blade.. Looks Solian.. Elemental or Soul Slayer.. If it is a soulslayer, despite what he said.. I won't destroy it.

After the battle, not much was seen of Mia. The last time she was seen with evidence was in the airship, part of the crew of Crazyhorse, although rumours abound came of sometimes seeing her at the side of an Akumi'da when they would drop onto the planes do to something. Some say she gambled away her life into their servitude, for lack of anything else to do.
