1693 Aedan's Journal Volume II Minnan1 First Entry: I've contracted some kind of disease, pain goes through my body, I faint constantly, I can barely speak, I don't know what's wrong with me, we are heading North searching for elves to help me... :: :: We arrived at some place, they put me in a bed and Bircalin came to tell me he would go get some food for me... I yet dont understand humans, they seem to be more kind than it seems. :: :: I got cured after a while, we returned south heading for Laurelin, Haelphon suggests I stay in a place inhabitated by elves so I may find more of my kind among them. :: :: :: Second Entry: I've got a nice house from an elf named Midnus he seems like a good person and already knows of my origin, he promised to keep it as a secret. :: :: After a while we got a meeting with the High Prince to talk about me, he gave us some copies of a book with possible proofs of Ayleids founding Laurelin. Bircalin left to Ravenhold looking for a better place to live. :: :: I shall continue what follows in my Field Research for I almost run out of paper. :: :: :: Third Entry: I've contracted a disease once again... but this one seems different from the previous one, I went to meet Romanen and Verigan at the Museum to have a talk. When I arrived they stared at my face saying I had something on it, we ran to the nearest pond to wear it off with water, wich we couldnt do. We went to Raven Hold in search of a Druid to help me althoguh he didn't help for an unknown reason. :: :: A Guard helped us come back to Laurelin to see if Respiren could help me, he wasn't here. :: :: I began to feel better after a while so I decided to go get a drink with Verigan at the tavern. :: :: I knew what I had, I just didn't want to tell my friends for their own safety. I had been Tainted during the fight at Oren against the Undead. The Aurorans had found me, The Last Ayleid... and they want me in their side... I do not know how to get rid of it for is not a common taint... I shall keep it in secret and try to wear it off somehow in order to keep my friends safe from it.... :: :: ::Final Entry: I cannot wear it off! I've tried everything in the book, even tried mixing different potions and still.... I cannot get rid of it... :: :: Sunlight is beginning to bother me, I cannot stand it so I've closed all light access to my house... The Weeks of staying in bed have kept me from cleaning my house and now I have a mess.... :: :: :: I feel how the taint is getting over me, I've run out of hope... I had so many things to do, so many things to share.... :: :: Seems like I'll die before getting old... hehe... seems rather Ironic... the words of the Last Ayleid... I'll die... before finding others of my kind... if they still live.... I cannot write anymore, my handwriting is getting bad and I can barely think.... Is time for me to say goodbye... :: :: Bircalin,Haelphon,Romanen,Verigan.... My Brothers.... I wish this had ended otherway.... I can die in peace, knowing you will always keep me in your memories...knowing that my kind wasn't extinct until now.... :: Bircalin, You have plenty of knowledge from me as to fill a whole Library with it....thank you for being so kind with me.... :: :: Haelphon... thankyou for always helping me get over my emotions... :: ::Romanen... I forgive you and I hope you forgive me.... I wish we could've talked more... :: :: Verigan... fellow elf... I barely knew you.... you've been a nice friend to me, a loyal friend to all.... take care... :: :: I wish this had ended other way.... :: :: Farewell my Brothers!.....Farewell.... :: :: - Aedan, The Last Ayleid..... :: :: Ny Hath Agaiayae cei das Marghathar dos garlas vas motheneth You shall not fear the shadows of your ancestors.... :: Hathes margoth nas volegheth vohkul as Auror.... You shall trust the shadow you leave behind......
