Dear Diary

..."Ged!" screamed the voice of Hacksaw. "Ged! Get your butt over here!"

Gedwick shook his head. ~~that was wierd, my daydreams usually aren't spoiled by that particular memory!~~

Gedwick the Eternal, Mage Champion of the Ivory Towers snapped his fingers and spoke the words: "Book, close." The blue-bound Diary turned its sheets and closed its cover without the mage having to touch it at all. He rose from his chair and left his study. He had been dictating to his living Diary but the memory of his long-lost brother, his most annoying and bossy and cruel brother, had caused his stomach to sour.

As the Mage Champion walked down the corridor he noticed the portrait of Allia. He smiled, a bittersweet smile, but a smile nonetheless.

1. Gedwick decides to ride to Roweton and visit the Mistress Midge ( a woman known as much for her cooking as for her magical touch)
2. Gedwick continues the day by trimming the shrubbery east of the whitewashed Tower
3. Even as Gedwick was savoring some delicious memories a rumble from deep within the earth made the whole of the tower sway like never before
4. The sound of a raven caught the mage's attention and he went to the topmost window to investigate
5. The smell of roasted pig ear's wafted up to Gedwick and he decided to stroll among the cooking-serfs as they made ready the main meal of the day
