In Oxford and Merriam-Webster I Trust

• I finally shook the infection that had kept me sidelined the last three weeks. The downtime was very beneficial to me so I could upgrade my Spellbook. I was quite surprised to find that Ostar did not possess the same level of spells that I have acquired. I can only conclude that again, I am limited by those around myself from their deprivation of education. If our group is a microcosm of the general public, then they ought not to complain when the Powerful determines their fate rather than Reason. Pretty soon only lechers will rule us, and they will only have themselves to blame. But I digress.
• I did not reach the trolls heart in time to see its regenerative powers. A mistake I wont make twice.
• The Redcaps are tracking us. They have evil intentions, and I surmise the contaminated water is their doing, probably some by-product of their inventions. I doubt poisoning water is their final end. They possess more craft in their endevours. But they do not attack us on sight. Maybe we have equipollent (even spellcheck is below my linguistic prowess!) purposes.
• I need to find a way to be able to absorb more than a single blow. I am not ready to give my Spirit up. Hmmm, maybe that would be the only way to find the Secret? If it is, I will have to utilize my Death as a last resort to the conundrum.
