Strix's Notes

Well, we might have gotten a bit too greedy. The mine was a nightmare, a colony of kobolds is living there and they turned the entrance into a death trap. We pulled through though, and managed to reach the inner part of the colony. Fortunately one of the kobolds named Click spoke Common and we were able to work things out peacefully from there.

Nilkas' Notes

**I fucking hate Kobolds.

Traps upon traps upon death. We wanted to leave but that way was trapped. Had to go further in. More traps, more pain. Kept the pain away from Strix as best I could. I powered through. Slaughtered the little bastards who caused me and mine harm. Broke through the walls they thought could contain me. But I was stopped by a pleading Kobold holding jewels. 

Seemed like they wanted to keep intruders out but want to not die. I was concerned, thinking a Dragon was nearby awaiting us to be eaten by it. We were greeted upon their society. Seems that not too many surface dwellers come around here. Got weird looks and a consistent beat of the caves. I recognized the beat as familiar but I couldn't place it. They offered a job to kill some demons for room board and food. Food and drink wasn't too bad. More mushroomy. 

I fear what I could become. These are nice people just wanting to defend their home and yet my rage blinded me to that. I was able to stay my hand but only when I was out of that trance. That damn tranquil trance of bloodshed and the ecstacy of magic. I can only rely on it. Things are getting out of hand faster than usual. Hells, my magic makes me faster. And yet I come out covered in blood and viscera of people defending themselves. I'm trying not to resort to violence but as soon as my blood boils with that sweet burn of magic I loose myself. Even more when Strix is in danger. I literally only see red and when I come out I am covered. The physical pain is nothing compared to the mental. Physical, no matter how painful only lingers for a few seconds. This emotional and mental pain never ends. Only time dulls it but never erases it. Seeing the one person who cares about me get hurt, and usually by my own damn ideas or plans I hate myself. I just hope she doesn't die on my account. I don't know what will happen. I just know it won't be good. For me or my target.
