A reasonable looking diary, with a lock on the side so that only Valaun or the one that bears the key may open it.

This diary was'nt very cheap, but then it does have some quality. I shall not linger on the past, for i must turn to the future. I have lost many friends, and i shall not forget them, but i shall not let past pains blind me. My hate for drow will not be my main force that drives me onwards. It has been a few days since i arrived here in sanctuary. I have met a few people down here. Most of them are humans, and a few elves and a halfling. On the first day i met the Kantaliths, Chell and Shadila. Chell is a kind hearted man, but Shadila has more of a temperament and a grudge agaisnt drow. And that includes anyone of similar blood. Such as me I also met Frubo Hill, a halfling of kind nature, sorcerer of Arvoreen. I also met a few with painful marks left on their faces, such as Liz. The third day marked the meeting with Danni and Eowung. Danni at first insulted me and pushed me to nearly beating her. If it weren't for my faith I could have lowered myself to a drow. Later on, she revealed that she was only testing me. This angered me inside but i did not let it show. In the end I forgave her for her words. Eowung is a sister of my faith, a priestess of Eilistraee. I have pledged myself to her safety and to those of my faith. Privately I told my story to her. The next day I met a warrior that bested me, Shan. I must admit that my strength has diminished through lack of food yet even then I could not have beaten him. Yet he calls himself a " mediochre warrior". I do not believe him. I shall best him one day. Valaun

It has been another day here at Sanctuary. I worked a bit with Kitty- a somewhat rustic human, who lived on a farm. I also helped Daristin on a serious task- with a few others we defeated wave after wave of undead svirneblin at the bottom of a staircase in the dunwarren ruins. I must admit I could have lost my life down there, and I started to panic. So much that I forgot about my fighting skills and wasn't able to concentrate. They broke through our lines- a thing that has haunted me since that terrible day, and we ended up disbanded. We fought for our lives, and then we regrouped and counter-attacked. Eventually we eradicated the scum after defeating a more powerful one bearing a gigantic sword. I crossed blades once again with Shan to test my newfound strength. Again he defeated me before i could land a blow. He really does deserve to be a rival, one which I shall train to match and eventually best. I also have two new swords. One a man of my team found as loot, and the other I bought for a reasonable price. i tried wielding them both together, but it is too hard. I think I shall keep them both all the same. Valaun.

A few more days have passed. Kaddaz has no got married with Jirala. Kaddaz is a paladin of Tyr. Jirala is a cleric of the same faith, I believe. A worrying event has come to my attention. There was an assasination attempt on Jirala. She survived since her husband was there to protect her, yet those that attacked her left a message, saying that there will be more attacks on us. I shall be weary and pray for our safety. I am develloping a new technique. I have revealed only the fact that I am preparing it. I have failed the move many times, in fact note once have I succeeded it . It is meant to strike many foes at once all around me. This way I may block many enemies and strike them down rapidly, or wound them gravely and stall for time. I shall succeed it one day. I must. Valaun.

My path before me is clouded by my doubts. I have been reflecting and meditating. I am not sure what my purpose is. Blinded by hate, I once vowed to destroy all drow. But now, I do not see any point in this. They took everything from me. Yet here I have a choice. Should I turn over a new leaf ? Should I attempt increasing the numbers of the followers of Eilistraee ? Or should I obliterate her enemies ? Fighting is what I do best. I can choose now, or wait. I think I should talk to my Lady Eowung about this. She is wise and powerful. I do think proposing the idea of raising a church of Eilistraee is a good idea. I do not think that she will not agree. Concerning other things than that, I must reflect upon. Valaun.

It has been a long time since I last wrote,And much has happened.

Lower andUpper Sanctuary are now two seperate states. There has been a civil war and the staircase linking them has been blocked off. Apparently the House of Light has been taken over by a gang.

Things must be set right. I shall have to work at them. Valaun Valaronat.
