Joy's Diary - Decimus 23
In the 417th year after the triumph of Alexander, Decimus 23, 4th Knightsday
Mother told me that every event - every surprise - in life holds a lesson for us in its depths. Now I just have to figure out everything our time in the underdark has to offer. Lady knows there were enough surprises. Like 9-headed hydras, dark elves, a magma elemental as big as a small mountain, undergoblins that turn on their masters, Dwarven Defenders that die to buy us more time, obnoxious Dwarven wizards that use family heirloom to save us, giant poisonous spiders the size of a house, shy young men who turn out to be dragons, drow that escape from their masters (who are illithids) and are chaotic good, and our tower mage (Galena) who risks her own life to save ours (she was fantastic – summoning creatures and throwing fireballs!). It was a very long three days, not that we could really tell when one day ended and the other began. I just knew when I could channel the power of The Lady again.
After taking Mer (the good drow who followed us out of the underdark or “the world” as they call it) and showing him the “outside,” many of us started to train. Every time I grow in strength, I feel that it better enables me to carry out The Lady’s work, but this time seems more important. Rolf bought us the time we needed to obtain the Salutorum and Titian’s Bane with his life, and now I have the ability to repay our debt to him by bringing him back – if he wants to come back. At least, I think I have the ability. I have only heard Mother talk about performing this miracle; I have never seen it performed. Now the whole Dwarven Council will be there to watch (it only seemed right) and who knows who else. Lady, please grant me the strength to perform this miracle right! Well, I should not put this off any longer; dawn has come and I can feel The Lady’s power renewed within me. I am going to ask the other Champions to come with me. Please, Lady, let me do this right…
