 There is a stench that hovers like a thick, wretched blanket above the waters of this city's canals. It is far more than simply the foul scent of effluence. It is a never-ending reminder of captivity. It revolts me. Vomit and bile burn the back of my throat. It is an aggravation no amount of expectoration can assuage.

Relocated to Gangplank. Miss Njal made several suggestions so as to improve socialization skills. Had lengthy conversation in re: “girl talk”.

Discussed current situation with Mr Malus. Was advised to find another subject.

The flickering glow cast off by the half dozen railway lanterns created an eerie dance of shadows along the margins of the room, adding an element of the macabre to an already gruesome midnight scene. Father Vorpal knelt silently beside his mother's broken body which had already begun to putrefy on the kitchen floor of her tiny roadside diner.

It was close to four when Strifeclaw first scratched at Bookworms door and announced his prescence in feline. He continued until she finally allowed him into her home.  He let a sigh escape as he entered which caused her to smile wryly, "Do I want to know what occasioned that sigh?"

“No, but I'm going to tell you anyways,”  Beryl let himself grin slightly before he made his way to the couch.  He got on it before Bookworm...
