It took a week to get to port, I don't know if that was fast or slow, it felt fast, but then again I was under a canvas tarp the majority of the voyage. I did feel warmth and smell pleasant things under my tarp, but I wasn't exactly welcomed with open arms. I was smuggled off the boat in a port that had none of the pleasant smells I'd experienced earlier (ports always smell awfully, you try being around a bunch of sailors who'd been on ships for months and not reek like ten day old ass, actually don't because it stinks). I had been wrapped in the canvas like a crappy rug and dropped onto a horse drawn cart and taken out of whatever city I wound up in. I can't say I saw much of the lands of the west from my canvas tomb, I could see it was pretty bright there were a lot of weird smells as I passed out of town, some different languages I hadn't heard before (I never mention languages being spoken differently in this journal but there are several different ones in this world, most of them I know, and the few I don't I never cared enough to learn, be thankful I translate everything, you really don't want to try and ponder what shorty gutter speak actually means).
The cart left town and was out on some old back country road fairly quickly (kidnappers generally don't stay in civilized places for long, crazy I know). I knew it was a back country road from all the damn bumps I felt as we bounced along. I also knew it was from the lack of other people on it (couldn't hear any). I figured I was pretty doomed until a curious situation happened, that I'll get into tommorrow. Amazingly I wasn't to be a kidnap victim for long, shocked me too.
And as I did yesterday a page from the mind of Mordere.
People in Ronerawth are better at lying than they are at setting up ambushes. The authorities don't have Lorentino, I'm beginning to suspect something else is at play here. Unfortunately my work calls me elsewhere, whatever happens to him I did my duty according to my god.
I'm sorry I'm going to need a moment, its just so touching.
