📚 Annalana: [Book of a Noble Attempt, 2:4] "...and then Qistis' servant rodent brought back a sacrifice that was already without life, so I took my knife and added my own lifeblood to the bowl to aid the ritual. Willing blood helps just about all magic, I figure. Qistis is upset at this but the ritual works and the portal dissolves."

[Book of a Noble Attempt, 3:1] "As we travel back to the hellmouth see lightning strike the ground and we are agog at how such a thing could happen. The wards of the Dragon Empire prevent such things. We hasten to return to the Hellmouth."

[Book of a Noble Attempt, 3:2] "Qistis fears the sounds coming from the graveyard. I know that there will be a battle and it is better to face it early before it has a proper chance to gather itself. A battle ensues..."

[Book of a Noble Attempt, 3:3] "Ahead of us we spy a Sahuagin necromancer and his pets. I draw out a glowing acorn from a pouch marked 'entangle foes, must be close' and use it, fighting from the front and getting the battle started with an edge for my men."

[Book of the Siege of the Deep, the Surface Skirmishes, 100:20] "...my men lay dead on the field and while I cannot feel my leg it still works and so I rise again, with my dead friend Gadrin's sword in my hand, and I step forward to take on the nymph of the enemy."

[Book of the Siege of the Deep, the Surface Skirmishes, 100:24] "...the nymph fell and her body faded away, leaving an acorn in her place. I placed it in my bag, robbing the Elf Queen of a valuable ally and gaining a weapon to defeat ~~scratched out scribble~~"

[Book of a Noble Attempt, 3:4] "The battle was fierce. Our initial gain yielded to the foes' greater numbers. Several of a hound's teeth disengaged from its mouth to burrow into my flesh. Out of habit, I kept myself up, calling out to my men—'Kaelon remember the wind as you let your arrow fly'; 'Steinar, you didn't find life just to give it up did you? SHAKE IT OFF BOOK'.

[Book of a Noble Attempt, 3:5] "The killing blow to the last enemy, a skeletal hound, belongs to Elistheren."
