Things I've learned today;

I have really small hands, and rather tiny fingers.
Moonbathing can be just as wonderful as sunbathing.
Watching someone not swallow their pride and accept a hand can be quite entertaining.
The demon lord has a very quirky sense of humor.
Sometimes being part of something bigger isn't a bad thing.
Having a day where one can forget about the past for a while is truly refreshing.
Sometimes even the most vexing people in your life mean more to you then you realize.
Taking a nap when you need it, instead of when you think you should is probably a bad idea.
At times, it's just best to let things go.
Wine really does go strait to my head.
And once in a while, others are just as confused about their life as you are.



*on the opposite page is a sketch of part of the throne room from the castle. The wall is mostly destroyed, claw marks cover its surface. The seals that once were in place, lay mostly in tatters. A few illegible notes are written along the border of the picture*[I]
