1.A forgotten love

Dear diary,
 
After getting to meet and befriend a lovely group of people with very different capabilities and especially looks we decided to travel together for a while, as we had some common destinations and interests. Unfortunately a civil war started in Worania, as if the invasion lead by Yanis, the king of Vormiol, wasn't enough to ravage the country, so we had to take more care of where and when we travel. After completely ignoring our cautious thinking from before we found ourselves encircled by a rogue nobleman and his cavalrymen. I tried to keep everything calm and stop any bloodshed, mainly because I didn't want to die, I confess, but I also did not want to see my friends die. Talion warned our attackers of his power and the consequences to come if they will attack us. That's when I started saying my prayers and inched closer to Heron, but little did I know. With a huge burst of pure white arcanic flame he engulfed the riders and killed most of them, while I nervously cursed all of the things the nobleman hold dear. To be clear, what Talion did was right after I started slandering about this mans family, subjects and estates. I am not that type of man, I have some honor. After capturing the nobleman and barely kept everyone from beating him like some punchbag we managed to start anew and struck a deal with him. Or at least I hope we did. I do think he will just betray us and capture us after the fact.
 
After helping the noblemen in a small fight, thus fulfilling our side of the deal, we decided to entirely forget about whatever we asked of him and went to Ionolia because Talion had some unfinished business there or something. He wasn't very specific, but we agreed. Before reaching the Ionolian-Woranian border, word of Yanis conquering Weldyn quickly reached our ears. This is how Yanis officially become the most powerful man in the civilized world. That didn't really impact us on our journey as we were already close to Ionolia and who cares about some lonely travelers. I know my way around people you see. When we reached Ionolia the scenery finally changed. Enough with the "Henric's traitors", bodies pilled up everywhere and hanged all over the place. Our first destination was the city of Marion. A holy city for all humans and creatures alike that follow the word and guidance of the Almighty. The city was very beautiful, filled with large houses and good hearted people. The sacred Hill of Marion is here, where the Almightysm was born, right under the Great Church of Marion. All of those sights left us in awe and for me personally it filled me with a strange kind of...power I guess, I couldn't explain.
 
We arrived at Talion's place and, although it was a wide, spacious room there were still five of us, so it was a bit cramped. Luckily for us the disturbingly large amount of mirrors made the room feel a bit more big. Because of those mirrors I can't escape Heron's face while we sleep. I think it's haunting me. After we settled in somebody knocked on the door, believing it was the food I just ordered from the kitchen below, I rushed to the door to open it. Standing at the doorway was a beautiful woman with black hair, light green eyes and a fair complexion. She looked a couple of years older than me and about my size, slightly shorter. Naturally I warmly greeted the young lady that came before me and was respectfully greeted back. She then rushed to Talion and dragged him somewhere to talk with him, and not only to talk I am sure, after they talked a bit inside the room. She apparently was Talion's fiancee, named Eve, but I did not see a ring and something was indeed feeling weird. We soon found out that Talion left her and has never, I mean never, wrote a single letter to her for a merely ONE WHOLE YEAR. It all made sense when we saw Eve come back alone and Talion on his walk of shame. I am not sure what went on between them, but I am not one to get involved in others' love problems, if they don't ask me to. We got to know each other and then Eve left for some errands. After we talked with Talion about what happened I decided to tease him a little and invite Eve to eat with us. Talion opposed me, but I was already running out of the room. That's when I found myself frozen in place by an arcanic cage of force that restrained my movement. When Eve came through the corridor and saw me trapped there with Talion trying to pick me up like some kind of toy and bring me back in the room she got really mad and started beating him and scolding him. He even had the audacity to catch her hand. That was very rude of him. I wanted to leave, then and there. That was an abuse of force and Eve knew that and was on my side. She was the one who convinced me to stay. Also I think she ditched Talion because she was definitely trying to get on my good side. Or perhaps she was trying to make Talion jealous because it was quite abruptly. We all went to have lunch and me and Eve sit and talked together all night. We get along quite well and she looks very fond of me. I noticed Talion pulling Eve to the side at some point asking her to stop hitting on me. I chuckled at the sound of that, I hope they didn't realize I was eavesdropping on them.
 
Dear diary, I really am not a bad person but I don't want to make myself false impressions and find myself a tool of revenge for some woman. I like Eve and her company, and I get that the pain of betrayal can change one's heart that's why I am not condemning her, but I also have a heart and feelings that I wish to keep intact. Take care Eve.
