the unification of the guilds... the fight against evil... the many layers of the one they call Dirk...

I spend a good amount of time today reading my past entries in this journal. 161 pages, 162 if you count this new one. Good times, bad times, long entries, short entries. Stories, studies and general babble. “Our past is the key to the success of our future.” my grandfather would tell me. I don’t think the young man he spoke with understood what he was going on about.

Valorn has a dark past. We have very little understanding of what shaped our land. Even with the writings and signs we do have, if you asked 10 Valornians what they believe is the history of our land you would get 10 very different stories. Even with my vast studies of the world I cannot pretend to understand what took place.

I am proud of the number of people that keep a journal in our modern times. Maybe someday they will help others to understand our struggle should we not be around to pass the stories on. Some may accuse many of the journals being nothing but self serving stories of the author’s love life or their personal success stories but I count any written documentation as precious. Considering what is not known of Valorn’s past I would welcome ANY writings from our past.

Training is going so slowly these days but it is good to sit back once and a while and consider why we do what we do. All lives are precious and worth fighting for.
