The 20th Day of the 10th Moon
Franklin and I have kept to ourselves for the most part. Things seem to be going downhill, however. Rumors of King Hargon’s growing temper are becoming more common. He will lash out at anyone if things are not exactly how he wants them, even if he never told anyone what he wanted. No one thought he was ready to deal with such delicate interactions as elven ambassadors traveling here, and his behavior now is reinforcing that idea.
Franklin is helping me manage a way to get to the marketplace tomorrow. He also wants to start our fighting lessons back up. I will admit: I did miss them. We will start them in two days.
I am fearful of what might happen next.
