Colette's Diary 2021-11-12

We wandered through the forest to get back to the boat. Cedric asked the others about their home worlds, and if they wanted to get back and if our journey here was intentional or by accident. He tried to relate to us or something but I hate him so I do not care.

He did an apology and I accepted it however it was half-hearted because it basically was “I am sorry I am going to be useless please accept this”. Mon dieu.

Rillia had a book that apparently was written about me! Very interesting! Also incredibly uncomfortable I do not like that someone is following me around and writing like they think I think. Invasive, this.

On the boat he assured us he was intending us to get us home.

Rillia suggested we do a watch while in the boat because they do not trust, neither do I so it is fine. I told her she must take first because she suggested, and Suzie seemed to not like this. They listened, though, thankfully. But as I went to meditate they started talking mean about my rules. They know I do not sleep, right?

             

In the morning we went up to collect and show our Kankoleons to each other to make sure we had enough for when we reached the shrine-ruins-thing but then Marijek, the first mate, pulled a betrayal! They mutinied! I tried to convince them to not fight but they were set on it.

We beat her and decided to tie her up to make sure she does nothing bad or do another betrayal. We talked a bit about how magic works and I am reminded it works wrong on me compared to others. They seem confused by their own abilities here, when I know what I can do just from the taste of the magic in each world I have been to, so far at least.

The sun is setting so we should probably go.

We came to a fortress or castle that seemed way more meant to be lived in than the previous ruins that we visited. We discussed a plan and felt we weren’t very stealthy; a friendly owl (Mr. Fluffyface but I decided he must be royalty so I refer to him as King Fluffyface for his face is the fluffiest) told us the place was abandoned but they came recently.

Stealthing did not seem our best plan and Rillia wanted to shoot the gun really badly... But I convinced them perhaps we should talk and see what we can do first. I created a very interesting character with a long backstory but they saw through me immediately. They said that we could come to an agreement to get us home. I was not sure if I could believe them, but I let the others decide. We felt we should trust them, perhaps, for now. And hope for the best.

We were led into the castle.

The elf captain said that the Rune Keepers decided we should be sent away. He told us that the portals sometimes send people to the same spot or different and it is all very random. He knows because he was once sent to Suzie’s homeworld! He was separated from his sister, Yessica. This is very sad. I asked him about her name so that I could tell her he still misses her if we meet.

Off we go to the portal. I hope we can go to my home world! I told Cedric (because he is basically being exiled due to circumstance) he could join me in mine to be my friend. I forgive him because he did not betray us. I am sure Ms Alori would be able to find him a job, she mentioned she knew a pirate! Maybe she likes pirates!

           

We got toilet flushed away, I wonder where to! Bori says to maybe not write notes while floating in the abyss of magic. Hm.
