A worn leather Journal (adventure log thing!)

(( I figured I would use Kiwike: Revamped to work on my writing skills =D. Please do give feedback. I would love to know what y'all think.))


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 1
That damned innkeeper! sending me out to the middle of nowhere because it's, 'interesting'! There's nothing out here! just a crotchety old farmer and some peasants. I can't wait to get out of here. That golum said that this would be a new chapter in my life. so far this is as boring as the sheepfarm back home... I haven't seen any signs of life as I wandered the land to this, 'Orraku Fields'. It seems as though not many people inhabit this land.
I suppose I should make some form of shelter. These rations that I stole from some Orcs on the way here won't last long. Maybe someone will turn up soon. I certainly hope so. The sounds that I hear at night aren't comforting. A man truly knows fear when no one is there to share the load with him.

Orak trollo,
Thornax.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 2
I'm running low on rations. The foodsack always looks more full than it actually is. I don't know how long I can hold out. I went to the man I've now come to know as Otho. He has heard rumors of other adventurers much like myself coming to Kiwike. I'm eager to document all that I can about this land and it's inhabitants. The noises get worse at night. I look out of the slit in my house at night and see the bones. Shambling rotten creatures of who I can only assume were the former Inhabitants of this land. They bang on my door at night. I haven't slept in two days. Jack always said I should be prepared for anything, but how can I prepare for something I've never thought of before...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 3
I've met someone new, or something, i should say. A hulking piece of machinery who goes by the name Golden. I offered him a place to stay in my nighthouse. he suspiciously accepted.
I think the reputation of these kiwikians isn't too great, because he did seem very reluctant. He warmed up to me soon enough. and even helped me with the bridge I was building to the other
side of the rive next to my night house.
The creatures still come out, but only at night. My ears have learned to block them. I sometimes here the wind cry out my old lover's name. It seems to whisper... Mary... I never knew if she escaped that Night. I never cried. some say it is my one flaw. That I never show sadness, and that It eats me out from the inside, devolving into a creature of anger. I say they're just crazy, but sometimes I wonder.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 4
I've been robbed! my secret chest filled with Iron that I put under a tree next to my house was dug up! I suspect it was the machine. Since he is the only thing that I've met besides those peasants back at Orraku Fields. I shall watch him more closely now...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 5
I have recieved a letter! an old friend by the name of Geod has called me to the Inn! something about a gathering of comrades. Geod never was too big on words... I immediately set about making preparations. I baked enough bread for ten men to make the journey with all the farms I made at the Nighthouse, and I "procured" some metals and gems from the Machine's hoard, (he didn't Hide it very well). I figured it was a debt paid. I set off into the rising sun, wondering what mysteries that Goed was going to have in store for me....

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 6
A Nation! A powerful nation led by Geod, and two other adventurers Galkx and Guthrie! me, Goed, and Guthrie met up at the Inn, and decided to set off, far far away. to somewhere where we could call upon those we know to set up a kingdom. We set off north and, after a few days, found a plains Biome. We set up a workshop and set to work. Geod started settiing up the parameters of his kingdom of Westphalia, and Guthrie went off to make his own plans. I feel Kind of useless here, since it is against Warder code to lead, but I offered to help either Geod or Guthrie with whatever labor they needed me to do.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 9
the smell of progress is in the air. As comrades from all across the land of Kiwike arrive at our new town in making, called Westphalia, I can't help but feel worried. We have heard rumors of war already brewing in our Fragile land. I feel the urge to take care of this land, and snuff out those who are too arrogant to think that they can rule it themselves. I traveled to the Inn and posted a notice, I plan to start a small group of men and women, train them as warders, and start learning all that I can about these emerging leaders. I'm going on a trip soon, And I intend to speak to these leaders. and learn about their plans for this future world.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 13
The trip went wonderfully! Even if I only got to visit one nation, I loved it! King Asdf seems like a wonderful person! I showed up at his kindgom, and was again, treated suspiciously. These Kiwike folk, always so slow to accept friendship. When I arrived, King Asdf was back at the Inn. I was suprised we did not cross paths. When we met I spoke to him about his situation. He said that he had some bandits around. I took this information into account, and help him defeat the buggers! I than decided to make my way home. The Warders need to grow. and I'm the only one that can help them do it!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 17
Alot has happened since I last wrote in this journal. So much stuff has been going on that I haven't had the time. I recieved several nasty pieces of information about one man they called Coras. The man Lok-Zur was so fed up he wanted to come to join the Northern alliance! So I made the Call to war. I took one of the lords I have come to know as Galkx to humble Coras, as he is thought to be pretty formidable. We ran into Lok Zur's farming community and I Knocked out the man called Coras as soon as I laid my eyes upon him. I than panicked, I began to run towards the forest from where we came, but My eyes caught another unconcious man on the ground and he had spilt Iron from his backpack. My heart was in my throat and I was shivering from adrenaline, but I was trying not to show it. I picked up everything the Unconcious man was holding and I headed ran as fast as my legs could carry me back to the forests. I had only gone perhaps a thousand meters when I recieved word that others where coming! whether to answer the warders call to arms, or for there own reasons, I didn't care.
This king was going to be put into his place, and I intend to make sure he will never rise up to have too much power again.
I am taking a trip back to Two Rivers, check up on the town, make sure it's okay. I will return in a couple weeks time. Until than I don't plan to write in this journal.
((I got temp banned for four days so I want to have an RP reason. See Y'all soon =D))

this will be a fantastic way to document kiwike's history. I really need to work on my writing skills to :/ maybe I'll make my point of view for the story...

((Umm, Bowser doesn't exist. There is a Coras, though.))
