Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

Finding the Lost Journal

Hey, look at this! I found my old journal!

Its so strange reading through this. I've changed so much.

So, some updates:

• Aearion, my husband is gone and most likely dead. By most civililzed laws, I can't get remarried unless I have proof, or 7 years have passed. This actually works well for me, since I have no desire to get re-married.
• I have reached my 23rd summer. Its hard to believe its only been 4 years since I first came to the Sword Coast. I've been here and away several times, so it has seemed like so much longer.
• I'm still technically in the Performer's Guild, but I'm not terribly active. There are so many other things I want to do, I don't want to spend all my time doing plays and entertaining. I have skills. I have power. I am compelled to use it to make the world a better, safer place. To piddle my time away entertaining the Baldur's Gate elite would be irresponsible.
• I have left the Nashkel Trade Emporium quite a while ago, which I only joined on a whim anyway.
• I am now in the Black Carnation Initiative which I also joined on a whim. However, I am convinced that this can be an effective group for doing Good, so I plan to stick with them unless they prove they are something other than what they seem to be.

My Updated Sword Coast List

• Ivaris
• Aearion

-Note: I have wracked my brians, but I think this is it. See mom? I'm not the trollop everyone said I was. Not anymore!

Anger Management

So I'm no longer with the Black Carnation Initiative. Evanie and I had a fight about her suspicions regarding me, and finally I had enough. I stormed out and didn't look back. Afterwards, she had some words with Gabriel, an intimate friend of mine, and she ended up kicking him out of the Initiative. I took a few digs at her on the tradeway, setting up a sign for the "Orange Gazania Initiative" whose goal was peace and Loving Kindness among races. Her henchman Isaac came to talk to Gabriel and me shortly after. I like Isaac. He's seems straightforward. But our talk turned sour, and it didn't end well.

I'm especially petulant and caustic when I'm angry. It's not pretty.

I confess I lost my temper with both Evanie and Isaac, and I said a few things that they're both going to regret. I still don't think the Black Carnation was an Evil group, but it may be irrelevant. I've heard tell that Evanie is disbanding the group, so it may not matter.

Now I need to find another hobby. . .

Bad Romance

What a strange few days for Romance!

I spent a couple nights with a nice fellow named Gabriel Stryder. Yeah, I know, stow it! Alison going with a Paladin? Real funny. He's nothing like a paladin, though - He's warm and charming with a sense of humor and an open mind. I don't know if I want to have a relationship right now, though. Monogamy leaves a lot to be desired, as the old saying goes. But, since I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, I decided i'd be a good girl until I figured it out.

SO THEN. . . a couple of days ago I was traveling with Sir Valiant the Bald Bold, and after we had finished delving into the Nashkel Mines, he asked me out for drinks. It was clear he meant this as a romantic date. I was a bit baffled, since he never showed any interest before, but I said yes. I figured its just drinks, and besides, I hadn't heard from Gabriel for a few days.

BUT THEN. . . Gabriel sent me a letter apolgizing for not being around and he couldn't wait to see me again.

I sat down to think. The reality is, that a lot of my friends have warned me about Valiant. I personally think he's misunderstood, but then I thought about Lexa and Yori. Let me explain: Lexa and Yori absolutely refuse to listen to any of their friends, and I keep thinking how stupid they are. The whole nightmare that they are going through right now is completely self-inflicted because they don't listen to the people who care about them. Am I being an idiot by not listening to what my friends say about Valiant? And Gabriel is sooooo handsome. . .


I Kissed a Girl

Speaking of Lexa and Yori, I decided the other day that I would try to help them. Lexa and Yori were engaged to be married until a horrible curse stole their memories of each other. Their friends had tried to restore their memories, but nothing seemed to work. I decided that maybe if they kissed, it would open up their memories, or at least re-kindle their romance so they could start fresh. You know, the past is gone, but they could still have a future, blah blah?

I explained my experiment to them and they both agreed. They kissed. And kissed. It was a steamy, lustful, sensual kiss. The kind of kiss that two strangers wouldn't give each other. I was hopeful! But then Lexa broke the kiss and reacted very unexpectedly. She denied there were any feelings for Yori, and to prove it, she grabbed me and gave me a hard, rough kiss. The kind of kiss a Thieves Guild boss would give to an underling just before he ordered his throat slit. I was terrified and slightly aroused. After the kiss Yori ran off weeping, and I stood there like an idiot trying to figure out what the Hells just happened.

I haven't spoken to Lexa since then, but I feel now that there is this awkward thing between us. And Yori - I haven't spoken to her either, and I don't even know where to start. She probably hates me.
