Fierlith Silverglade's journal

Unread post by Blackhorizon »

A passage written in a flowing, elegant script to a small sized, easily held, leather bound book with silver ornaments around the edges and in corners of the cover. In the middle of the cover stand an exquisite, stylized misty crescent above a full moon.

Hymn of gathering stars as my guide
Moonlit path taking me forth
Wish in the night for wisdom to endure what lies ahead
Strength for those weak of heart
Guidance for the wayward kin
Don’t let the dreamer fade to gray
Oh, how I wish for them to see
There is light in the darkness of the night.

It was not my choice to leave but I took the task without hesitation. Little did I know what awaited me.

The journey itself was long and perilous. Many dangers lay in wait along the caravan routes. I’d imagine it could have been far worse but it seemed luck was on our side. We encountered small skirmishes – dealt swiftly by the caravan guards. Only minor injuries were suffered during the length of the journey. It was easy enough to treat the wounds with poultices, clean dressings and gentle touch.

Another surprise was waiting at the destination. It was as if I had landed into a whole different world. The beauty and harmony of Silverymoon was replaced by wide variety of strange inhabitants, tumult from the aftermath of the recent attack the city had suffered, trouble, discomfort to name a few. Nor did the dangers end upon arrival. I seem to have gotten to a place where unrest stirs and disparity thrives, thugs and crooks are drawn to people like moths attracted by light. It is best to rely on others.

A bit of comfort can be found in the kindness of strangers – those with good intentions. Support and strength given by kin. I am delighted to know there are Tel’Quessir in the region.
May the grace given hamper our foes,
Veiled eyes unseeing,
Confined ears unhearing,
Distracted senses unfeeling,
The Luminous Cloud willing.

As the sun sets and the light wanes,
let our spirits lift and reach the stars.
Searching for that which cannot be seen.
Give us hope in these dark times,
twinkling stars as our guides.
See into our hearts and judge us fairly.
Give us strength to endure against our foes,
give us wisdom to outsmart them.
May our dreams be vivid and meaningful.
Guide us on the path of mysteries, Lady of Dreams.

Red night
Ches 12


Pain – through the red haze – myriad forms of pain. Drops of water in the distance mixed with hissing of snakes. Sting of an icy metal shearing through skin, muscle, grating against bone – pain. Dark figures blending with a throne with three snakes coiling around the arm. Tusks tearing through flesh over and over again – pain. Blood spilled like wine from a golden goblet. Burning and freezing – pain. Red glowing eyes and a wicked grin. All-encompassing pain piercing body and soul – pain. Pain is real.

((Different kind of diary carved in one's mind.))

Purple dawn
Ches 13


The pain persists – taking new forms or perhaps it merely spreads like folded wings reaching out before taking flight. Dark shapes creeping in the shadows of a desolate place. It is not concentrated on a few singular, searing pains though the hurt still remains all the same. There are lesser hurts slowly emerging. Shape dressed in white gazing down. Something is burning. I am burning. No. It is not real or is it? It must be real. I feel it as if lying on a bed of hot coals. Scream of a banshee. There. A soothing breeze – moment of relief. It is gone. Replaced by ache – sharp needles all over. Hissing dies away with the terrifying wail. Coolness, sweet coolness, spreads over another spot. It draws me closer. Soon it will be taken over by the reminder of being alive.

Blue day
Ches 14


Numbness is a blizz – sharpest edges lose their sting. Light shining on a mithral surface. It is easier to concentrate and steer thoughts to a different path. These sights are familiar. I have seen them before. Why are they appearing? Locks of hair entwined around a worn lute. Sharp pain – skin tearing off. It is followed by smarting sensation that quickly turns into familiar sting. Why can’t I see the stars? Everything is so dark. Hands joined by snakes around them. Shifting, turning, moving, changing. Slowly, with conscious effort it all begins to make sense. In the darkness a flickering light is lit. Man shifting into a hagspawn. Agonizing torment blending with sights and things I know so well. I am being repaired. I am not awake. I need to wake up.

Grey sunset
Ches 15

Floating in a sea of darkness. A glowing speckle of light in the distance – out of reach. Dulled ache hammering in the background. I should push the ache aside and concentrate on the speckle. It is the key. Swimming, paddling, nothing seems to work. They do not – because the sea is but an illusion. I have to use my mind – focus my thoughts on it. I need to will it closer. Trying throws intensive waves of anguish at me and they send me reeling, spinning uncontrollably. It is hard to concentrate. Grey haze covers my vision waiting for me to give up and sink into the depths. I persevere. Through the pain plunging into the light – it is blinding.

Do not let your heart sink with the fading light.
Night is not all dread and shadows.
Look closer and you will notice the wonder.
Give your spirit the opportunity to dance with the stars,
bathing in the light of the moon.

Blinded by choice and greed, drifting aimlessly.
Hold your hand to catch the fall,
the illusion you want to believe.
Eyes will be made to see, the game of dishonesty,
for whatever makes you see, makes you believe.

The vision shatters into fractions,
many-faced mirrors of the spreading madness.
There is no joy, only suffering,
though it is not our way.
The world around is turning into shades of grey.
The moon cries crimson tears.

When the world is in flames,
it is painted with hues of yellow, red and black.
The flickering forms standing behind are many shaped.
A shadow looms over
but when you try to steal a glimpse of it,
it is no longer there.
Each step forward
is met with a harsh breeze from the North
rattling the dead branches of forgotten trees.
A crow caws.
It is joined by another.

A surprise waiting,
little blue stars staring,
they bring a gift of happiness,
a moment of respite.
It is easy to get lost in them.
Forget-me-not

What is an end?
It might be merely a new beginning to some,
while to others it is just that
— the end.
Curtain closed with nothing else.
An end takes many forms
and it is met with a range of emotions.
Sometimes an end can be a relief
but it could also be met
with despair, bitterness, tears and the sense of loss.
An end is rarely fair or welcomed.
It is,
after all,
an end.
Everything has an end,
eventually.

In the darkness I stand,
long tresses dancing around me — twisting and tossing,
but there is no wind, no sound.
Is it a cliff and the vastness of the sea?
There are no lights or shapes.
Is there even a sky?
I cannot move
but I know not whether something is holding me in place
or am I simply paralysed.
It is getting cold…

The figure is blurry,
but it feels cold and hostile.

...the hells...
Can ice burn?
Barbed lashes cut deep.

...devil shites 'round...
Something moves in the corner of my vision,
but I do not catch it.

...worthless sack...
Am I falling?
An impact forces the air out.

...I should tie stones...
There is a splash.
Suddenly the world is submerged.

...toss yah into the sea...
Am I drowning?
There is only water.

...the Realms would be better off without yeh...
Something pulls, down, down.
Only darkness remains.
