Book III - Page 17

My first contract with the order and I totally blow it. Was really looking forward to it and to impress but instead i end up with a strained ankle and mud everywhere and i do mean everywhere but at least the night didnt end with me being alone.

Met up with some of the others. That female shadow user elf called us there. Havent gotten her name yet and Leath was there as well. Its clear that rank and discipline means a lot to him. I need to remember that. But we were sent after this mage which turned out to be two in the end.

I was totally taken off guard when that elf spoke in my head, havent tried that before and I didnt like it. Who knows what someone that can reach into your mind can do in there.

I really felt useless on the trip and it was taking for every but following Leaths orders and walking all together in one big happy group.
Then that fecking wind nearly knocks me over but instead i strain my ankle. Like that was better. Grimm wanted to help me and Fisher seemed to want to help me as well.

I need to tell them off I dont need their fuss over me in front of the Bosses and I did fine before i met them. I can handle myself. Im not some damsel in distress to fuss about.

Clearly Leath had a favorite among us. Hyde this and Hyde that, seems we others werent good enough at anything. Okay I know my fall might have put me at a disadvantage but still. And about Hyde what was all that with the Boss sending her away after she gabbed at him? Well seems the made up maybe he also has a soft spot for her. I dont have anything against her she seems quite skilled but never liked favoritism. specially when the others have had little chance to prove themselves. And especially not on a mission, what they do in private is their business but was so obvious she could do no wrong in his eyes.

Did i forget to mention I HATE SWAPMS. There i said it. I really hate them, boog and mud and slime URGH get in everywhere.

The scheme in that little goblin village turned to shit, seems it was the wrong person we were tracking. But we finaly caught up with them. And YAY i slipped again but at least i got to crack the scull of one of them, Fisher distracted him and Blade took his head clean off.
All went on the other mage and well seeing as they were seven against one I thought it safe enough to check on Leath. He was badly hurt and did my best to get him back on his feet though when all the others came starting healing and what then not much more for me to do.

I just wanted that bath after that fall in the mud and well loosing my boot. Just another of "its just not my day" i guess. Fisher found me at the griphon master he let me stay in his room but still I told him I couldn't do anything because of it being so new being single and all but it was nice to not sleep alone. Like when Grimm and Primal and me slept at her place.

Still was hard to keep my hands to myself that night.
