I woke and it was quiet. Then I saw tracks and that there was a fight. I went to look. It was a big rat. I don't know why. I asked and he said it was something he'd been fighting a while. He called me sir too. I told him I was Starling but he didn't say anything. Maybe he wasn't used to someone saying something different from that he thought. I killed it though. Why was a rat there? I don't understand.

Frohste say hi but she was going to sleep. I opened things and thought she had a good idea. I went to rest too.

I heard Tyral saying something. I will ask about it next time I wake. Sometimes he has big things to talk about. Where does he get the different sizes of things? Does he keep them somewhere until he needs them? Maybe he has a collection.
