Oh thank the gods. The Sakamiyo ships finally paid their tariffs and we have a fresh supply of heqa. The high priestess knows how much I like it and ordered enough to last the entire temple for a month.
I need to go to the kitchens some time today and get a cup.

I cannot imagine why shadow magic would be helpful to me. Its primary usage is to manipulate and control others. In addition, it is just unbalanced. That it is destructive is nothing new; necromancy and pyromancy are both highly destructive...

Gosh, you sound like the booooring me~
No tricks from me, though~ Only treats~
No tricks? That is a load of shit. You’re no different from Kashida, and gods know how twisted in the head he is.
Kashida came into the temple this morning to mock me. He had that depraved look on his face, and he was just flaunting the way that he was getting away with what he’s done, and still doing it, right under the noses of some of the most powerful mages left in Direnla.
I wish I knew the magic that would let me stop his shadow’s smug grinning at me.
Regardless, one day I will have the...
It is nearly time for someone to make the midnight rounds. This is the time when I will be forcibly dragged out of my study and made to sleep whether I am tired or not.
So, good night to everyone I happen to be on decent terms with so far.

Not nearly tempting enough.

That’s a difference between not telling, and unable to tell~
You’re sounding more fun by the minute~ I’d like to do a private dance lesson with you~
There’s no difference to me. Either way, I cannot get the information, so either way you are equally useless.
I have no interest in being even in the same room as you.
Go away.

Alright then, fireball~ No skin off my back~
Your text is entirely too eye-searingly pink.
I would give anything for a cup of spiced heqa right now. But the trade ships from Sakamiya have been held up in the harbor for refusal to pay tariffs, and the city is in a shortage. Perhaps I can talk to Elle the next time she visits and convince her to buy me some.

All of them are going to just go over my head, too. I won’t have the cultural frame of reference to understand. Although perhaps that is for the better.

I want to return my soul to where it belongs. However, due to the peculiar nature of necromancy, what remains of my life will be eaten away by one more major spell. Returning my soul to where it belongs would rightly count as a major spell.
Unless I am able to steal a few years off the life or lives of another, there is nothing I can...

After speaking with several people today without even leaving my study, I am being called by the evening prayer bell.
I shall be back whenever I am able. As one of the few necromancers in the Order, the temple requires my help to send the souls of the dead on their paths.

Seishak’s soul is in his hair.
This explains why his hair is such a bright, unnatural color and why his eyes look dead and emotionless.

This is all sounding suspiciously like the parallel world theories that I have heard about. Please don’t tell me those are actually true.
