Crammed in a corner and covered in dust is a dense book detailing the travels of Orfen. Amidst the myriad of the Throalic handwriting are a few nuggets of relevant thought from her. It would take a researcher hours just to determine if there is any information worthy of note. The text remains unaltered to maintain its authenticity (Certain terms and names written wrong to keep in character). As you begin reading the entry, a nearby scholar looks at what you're reading, eyebrows raised, and simply says, "Good luck" as they resume reading. It takes about 3 hours to read the entire entry.
"This Montazh fellow wanted us to collect bark for some weird training smoothie. I didn't see much in terms of alchemical properties to the swamp birch bark, but I figured saying something about it around Youghdel would have upset him."
"I finally met the Daicars! Momma always spoke so highly of their enchantment and alchemical abilities. She was even there when their business took off. They also had a trade route near where we were going, so establishing supply route for the bark would not be as difficult as we originally thought!"
"We met some farmers. Rather incompetent lot, but according to Orlam, that was the status quo outside of Throal."
"The Crackbills threw up orange cheese dust everywhere, but miraculous missed me every single time! Not sure where I got that kind of grace, but it probably came from Gramma."
"The rest of the party solved the weird, flying dwarf cat thing's riddle. After reciting the answer, the thingies left us alone and we turned around and went the other way."
"After leaving the Cathan Apalai tribe, we followed a river that left the ground and flowed through the trees! It was incredible! It also housed a deadly bubble-like sea creature which floated through the air? I'm glad Orlam was there with an antidote. I could have literally died from the embarrassment of being an elementalist infected with poison."
Other bits were found amongst the ramblings that were quite entertaining, even though they weren't really relevant to the journey:
"Youghdel introduced me as the girl who sets his sword ablaze. People chuckle at that. Then he introduces Orlam as the guy who fluffs his clothes. I'm not sure why these introductions are so funny..."
"I didn't actually set Youghdel's sword on fire until after we killed the Crackbills, but I did light Keel's weapon! I hope Youghdel doesn't get mad at me. I might need a new introduction after this."
