Life has been quiet lately - and I’m ok with that.




 I feel over due for a trade run but Ginja is managing for me. It’s just been Routledge and I here, working in and around Highmountain. We trade once or twice a week in Thundertotem, with Ginja visiting once every two weeks to pick up extra supplies or bring back earnings. She’s really efficient - I appreciate her work. It’s allowed me to work on my leather working, spend ample time with Routy, and just be. It’s been really nice.

I sent a formal letter to Ebon - I haven;t heard from the tribe via letter, or feather. So I have decided for now, to leave their number. It’s a bit distressing I confess, but I need to have a care for myself too.

I still take classes in Trueshot - I’m tempted to learn methods of using a spear.  Classes start in a few days. The bow is great - I’ll never give it up. But sometimes you need another method. Sometimes my axe isn’t enough to dispatch a kill, and they suffer more. Or maybe a moose turns on me instead of running. That’s only happened once, and luckily it collapsed shortly after charging but it was alarming, and an eye opening experience.

That mishap happened on that hunt with those Highmountain braves I met up with after I found out about Routy’s double nature. I shouldn’t have gone out with them, but I did. They were only out to kill something, and when I made the shot, they all bolted when it charged, leaving me stuck in that damn valley with a dead moose laying on top of me. I was stuck for a long time before some trappers found me.

I might head out to Thundertotem today, word is that they are able to join the horde now. The purple elves too, from Suramar. The elves from the Argus campaign - led by that lady elf and some of those draenei from the Vindicar are reaching out to this Alliance.  I’m happy though - it means these people are branching out. Could be more trade too!

Vik’wa and I talk every other day - I can talk to her without holding the focus now but it’s still so exhausting. She told me it can take years to develop the mental fortitude to keep up a steady conversation for hours. For now, just an hour so is what we manage. And I’m glad, she’s a wealth of information. She’s sent me so many books - and I have time to read them! I am learning more every time I pick up a book. I have so many I am having to collect the one’s I’ve read to send them back to her!
