[Bordermarch] The Swordsman

[nomistk at bordermarch.org]

Ah what a little idle time will bring,

It seems that the swordsman has been visiting the Dimwitted brewer again and decided to put his random thoughts and comments to parchment.  It is good to see that he is able to 
string together multiple subjects into one drunken haze of conversation.

My informants tell me that the amount of time the swordsman spent conversing with the GA royaly was due to his true support of the enemy's efforts.  That his son still wields a 
blade for this Barony is good testimony that his loyalties are not as easily swayed as the swordsman's.  Truly it would be good to hear the song of the blade in the Barony's land's 
once again but I guess that whittling with wood is all the Swordsman is capable of in these dark days.

As far as the ditches, inns and taverns that I stayed in I can only say that while the company I keep is somewhat suspect I am commited to my task of protecting the Barony from it's 
enemies.  Some times you have to blend in with the enemy as to not arouse thier suspicions as to you true intentions.  While this has caused me some personal discomfort and my body 
odor is less than desirable I do what is asked of me.  Besides it is not good to smell better than the company you keep!

At this time I am actively rooting out our enemies in the outlands.  It seems that there was a certain turban headed one at our 
castle and I feel that he was up to no good!  Maybe the Swordsman made his accuaintance in his wanderings?  He tried to sell me everything from his sleeping quarters to our castle 
but when I inquired about a certain lovely chair he became speachless, the first time I have encounter this in him in our long aquaintence.  Now I do know that he still owes me for 
the pidgeons that he ate of mine and I plan to seek recompense for my loss and hardship.

And now I see that the barony's subjects prefer to eat the innards of the livestock rather than learn from thier messages.  Oh what a confused and twisted lot her excelency has made 
this Barony into.  I just thought the one armed gardener could'nt cook, now I feel that it was what she was cooking, not how that was the problem.  

All of these things going on and nobody to help.

Concerned,
Nomis
