_Dear Journal
I look back on my history and see so much of it like myself has faded over time. The time has eroded so many things that just aren't as important as I once thought they were, even the pages of this journal. I have found myself retired from the Paladinship, something I believed so early on was my only path and goal in life. That it was my only calling and yet, I am now seventy years old and a growing Priest high in Ilmater's favor like never before in my paladinship and serving him on a task I wasn't even sure was possible or real. I am so close to obtaining his staff and making it whole once again, but even now I worry the potential dangers I am asking my friends to step into. We prepare against Zhent's in the town of Oscura. Were it not for an Oscuran peacekeeper named Cray that I associate with on occasion we would likely have alot more problems getting in. Varia worries me more and more recently after the death of her ward. She is taking it very badly and it is effecting her more then she wants to admit. Thankfully there are many watching over her other then me. I wonder if Sir Reynauld even knows his squire has passed yet or not? I haven't seen him to tell him….I will have to rectify that soon._

The writing comes in a fine silver ink, well written with a calm hand
It has been a long time since I wrote in this journal, looking back it puts me to just before completing the holy staff that now stays by my side constantly. I have published a book on the staff so that it will never again be forgotten if anything happens to it. I am now ninety eight, a very old man yet I feel younger then ever. I have three Squires at current being brought into the Forsworn and may possibly yet have a fourth. Gnarl will not be a Squire long if he accepts, I already know he has all the potentials of a Knight and having him in the Forsworn will really aid us. Andrew is the one I worry about these days. He has gotten himself in a load of trouble and is being conscripted to the guards. I of course have asked the Lieutenant to ensure this was the Magistrates orders, if not then to consider abuse of authority. Ramus grows well and strong. He is also ready to be Knighted. An oracle and Monk of Ilmater, I am truly proud of him. I need to write more often it seems as I miss so much in the time passed.
Soon I will have to rewrite out the Code of the Forsworn, if Gnarl joins he will likely be my General after Knighthood. I need someone younger then me helping to train the Squires and guide them on the proper path. It wont take much to get things going then. After that we can look to having our own building put up. A true base for the Forsworn as greatful as I am to the Kelemvorites, I know this is only supposed to be until I can get my own place set up. I am truly greatful to them for everything.
