(if not, please delete!) -- It's great! Thanks Min! ~Em
This story is, in the tradition of "Erin Druid's Diary", catches of Lina's writings and events that pass at Obernewtyn to make her days more interesting. Since she's the troublemaker at Obernewtyn I thought it might be funny ~:|
---
Day 1 of Moonfair; 7:00am
Was woken by sound of rampaging carriage, only to realise once haze had cleared that it was Zarak's dad's snoring from down the hallway. Must ask Alad again if I can transfer to the main house - I wonder if he has woken yet? Should go check.
Will use chill of the farm houses as an excuse.
Day 1 of Moonfair; 8:30am
Okay - back. Found Alad in a field, picking courgettes. Apparently he'd been up for three hours. And we were supposed to be there. He thought I'd come to help :( since I'm asking a favour, I couldn't say no, or pull any pranks to make my escape. He'll keep.
Hands are sore and frozen. Will ask Alad about move to house after breakfast. It will be nice to be closer to [strike]Zarak[/strike] the others.

Day 1 of Moonfair; 10:00am
Breakfast was quiet. Guildmaster Roland managed to pick a fight with Guildmaster Gevan again. Wasn't exactly paying attention to the topic today. Khuria sat next to Zarak at breakfast. They were planning some new maneouvre that Aras thought up. Left breakfast early to find Alad and got roped into even more farm duties. It's usually bearable but there was just something missing today. Spoke to Alad and made absolutely no ground on that front. He said I should just use more blankets. I wonder what Alad would say if he had to sleep near Kruria. Or maybe Alad snores?
Day 1 of Moonfair; 11:30am
Today is just dragging. Have blisters in places where blisters shouldn't exist. Tonight should be fun. Rushton has a surprise for the whole of Obernewtyn. Can't wait. Off to lunch!
Day 1 of Moonfair; 12:00am
I suspect that Javo must be ill for lunch is not up to its usual standards. I'm not sure what was in it but it looked like slime and tasted as such, and yes I know what slime tastes like. Oh and Zar--
I have Lina's diary and hey what's this about m--

Day 1 of Moonfair; 12:25
Have obtained left over lunch goop for the purposes of Revenge.
Hehehe, Zarak won't know what hit him XP
Laugh evilly but stop immediately upon recieving strange looks from fellow beastspeakers.
Day 1 of Moonfair; 12:35
Lunch goop successfully hidden in the loft of the barn. Will return for it when remaining elements of plan are assembled. Wonder if Louis would lend me a wheel barrow...

Louis being his charming self as usual, will have to find another way to transport mixed up goop and manure. Have to hide as I am writing this as Guildmaster Gevan has come to report (dob) about what he caught me and Zarak doing in the hidden tunnels. Alad won't be happy when he realises we had help from some of the dogs.

Day 1 of Moonfair; 13.50pm
Finally Guildmaster Gevan has gone. He was talking so long I’d almost gotten up from behind this hay. Doesn’t help that my nose is twitching, I hope I don’t get sick. Some fresh air should help. I just hope that no one notices me. I heard Alad mention something about needing a bit more help with the duties. Something about mucking out the stalls. Yuck. Definitely not something I want to do. But perhaps I should go and get some of the manure before it’s cleaned up. Maybe I could beg an old kitchen bucket to put it in.

Day 1 of Moonfair, 15.25pm
Plan did not go as planned. Manged to obtain manure, but not through desired means - was seen in stables by Alad, and made to muck them out myself. Am not happy. And do NOT smell good. Hope Zarak doesn't see me.
Day 1 of Moonfair, 15.35pm
Got seen by Zarak. Am now hiding out in the bathing room, waiting for the water to run into the bathing tub. Hoping to sink into the floor from earlier embarrassment, but so far no luck.
Shouldn't really be inside the building in this state, but snuck in the back way. Hope no one sees me, or my dirty clothes.

Day 2of Moonfair, 6.25am
Was unable to continue writing here yesterday as I dropped diary in tub full of bath water and had to wait until for it to dry out. Rest of day bit of a wash out any way (no pun intended) as Zar was no where to be seen and rain spoiled plans for evening. Can hardly be pushing a wheelbarrow full of lunch gloop and manure around in the rain. Hope for opportunity today if Alad doesn't find more work for me to do. Best get to first sitting or I'll miss out on breakfast.

Sorry about 24hr time, force of habit :-?

Day 2 of Moonfair, 6.45am
Discovered that Javo's been experimenting in the kitchen. This morning's food was better than lunch goop, apparently a young beastspeaker forgot to help out with lunch. Was meant to be a soup of sorts. Oops, Javo just glared at me. Come to think of it, Alad might have mentioned something about lunch duty yesterday. Going to sneak away and hope Javo doesn't notice. I'll have to make up for missing yesterday's duty. But not today. Oh no, now it's trouble. Coercers and Healers right before my eyes. Perfect cover though...
Day 2 of Moonfair, 7:00am
Made it past without being seen. Am now hiding behind one of the tapestries only Zar and I go to. Hope it doesn't rain. The goop's starting to stink.

Damn Rasial. How that dog can sniff me out every single time makes me crazy. Alad is not in a happy mood but that is normal it seems lately. Don't know why he has to rant at me though. So I was late...again. You'd think he's be used to it by now. Now I have to think of another way to get out mucking out the stalls. Maybe I can con Gavyn into helping. At least that way I should have some time to myself. I just hoope Zarak doesn't see me like this. I aready owe him one that I haven't been able to pay back. I can just image the comments...
Day 2 of Moonfair, 8.30am... Oops, it seems like I let my imagination get away from me again. I really need to work on that.

Day 2 of Moonfair, 19.30pm
Didn't get to write earlier, as i was busy getting caught in the act of pay back... i have learnt that revenge doesn't taste sweet, it actually tastes rather a lot like 2day-old gloop and manure.
just before lunch i decided to put my plan into action, but, unfortunately, Alad walked in just as i was putting the bucket above the door and the bucket fell on my face instead.
not fun.
got to go have a bath, im really sticking up the place.
Day 2 of Moonfair, 20.15
had to take a bath outside. Lud darned Guildmaster Roland caught me sneaking into the main building... now as well as farm duties i have to do most of the cooking in the kitchens all day tomorrow too :|

Day 2 of Moonfair 20.30pm
Am now freezing cold, but the others won't let me into the sleeping chambers, as they insist I still smell like goop and poop. I think they're lying, but then having had that smell in my mouth and nose for a halfhour, I cannot really be certain.
Day 2 of Moonfair 20.40pm
Am now in the stables, up in the hayloft. The hay is fresh and sweet and smells nice, so I could do a lot worse. Have managed to scrounge some paper and a pen and ink, and am now plotting my revenge. So far it involves candles and red dye. I'm determined that this time it won't smell as bad, in case anything goes wrong!

Day 3 of Moonfair, 6.45am
My plan is now outlined. I just need to get the key ingredients, which luckily for me, seem to be rather popular in the kitchen. Lud knows I needed to get in there without being caught, so what better reason than working in there. Though of course I didn't volunteer for the job.
Day 3 of Moonfair, 7.00am
I've raided the pantry whike Javo was off looking for Alad, and now have the dye. It's not much though. Rest of it must be with the Coercers, for the Magi tricks. Now I just need to find some more candles. The ones I have are short and stubby, no use for melting copious amounts.

Day 3 of Moonfair, 10.00am
What is it with people around here. I didn't know farseekers could eat so much; and the empaths; what do they have, hollow legs or something. I swear I filled the porridge pot six times for one firstmeal! I'm just glad the other guild decided to eat elswhere today.
Oh no, there's Javo glaring at me again and pointing to a huge cauldren. Oops, maybe thats the one I should have used for the porridge. Oh well. At lease I can have a break now...
Day 3 of Moonfair, 2.00pm
...or not. No-one told me I'd have to do the dishes as well. I thought the rule was if you cooked you didn't have to wash up as well. I bet this is a new kind of torturous punishment thought up by Alad because I stunk up the barn yesterday. I think I did better for lunch. No one complained and Javo has only glared once or twice so far since then.
Day 3 of Moonfair 2.50pm
So many jobs to do. Had to put the horses back in the stall, and a dog chased me. Javo glared at me again. Annoying!

Day 3 of Moonfair 3 pm
I'm mucking the stalls again! When will my punishment end? I didn't even do anything to anyone else! Wasn't it enough punishment to have spilt the goop and manuer on myself?!
Day 3 of Moonfair 5 pm
I have finished mucking stalls and hosed off outside and am now drying by the fire in the kitchen before nightmeal. I can't wait for nightmeal because I do not have to cook it and can sit by Zarak!
Day 3 of Moonfair 630 pm
Me and Zarak are sitting in a corner of the dining room by ourselves, waiting to be served our food. Zarak is working on his farseeker asignment while I am writing. Wow! Zarak is very handsome...
Day 3 of Moonfair 9pm
After nightmeal, Zarak and I snuck off to the orange orchard to be alone, but were caught and sent to our seperate housings. I am allowed back into the farm houses tonight, however, I wonder if I'd rather sleep in the stables. Zarak's father is already snoring! I pray to Lud that he will stop soon!
Day 3 of Moonfair 12am
I have been laying in bed staring at the ceiling trying to sleep with Zarak's father snoring and am still unable to.
Day 3 of Moonfair 230am
I think he has stopped snoring! Thank Lud! I can finally get some sleep!

Day 4 of Moonfair, 7.00am
Gah, I was woken up five minutes ago by Alad. It's not my fault I couldn't sleep because of Khuria. I told Alad again, so he's made me do more work today. He's a torturer, and what's worse is I missed breakfast, and of course there's none left.
Day 4 of Moonfair, 12.00pm
I keep dozing off. I really need to get more sleep, but now's not the time to do it. I don't want to bring Alad's wrath down on myself again. But the hay looks so comfy. Maybe five minutes of sleep wouldn't hurt before I go and get lunch.
Day 5 of Moonfair, 8.46 a.m.
I am tending to the horses again, but brought them to a new fresh patch of green grass, closer to the higher mountains. I was writing a love poem about [strike]Zarak[/strike] someone, when I got distracted by a bird flying over head. It is uncommon to see birds this high up. I tried to beastspeak to it for fun, knowing that birds don't respond, but this one talked to me....or at least I think it did. 8-| Note to self: thinking about [strike]my crush[/strike] someone makes me batty.

Day 5 of Moonfair 9.50am
Am now cleaning out the pigsties. Alad caught me sleeping yesterday, and gave me another two days of hard duty on the farms. (So much for a short nap - I missed midmeal, and nearly missed nightmeal!) The others must love it that they get out of doing their chores, but you don't see them thanking me!
Day 5 of Moonfair, 10.00am
One of the pigs keeps staring at me. What am I supposed to do? Alad would murder me if I let the pigs get loose. And how would I explain taking one single pig for a walk?
Day 5 of Moonfair, 10.15am
Am taking the pig for a walk. Curse my curiosity! I made the mistake of beastspeaking her, and she made a very reasonable request, claiming that she was all hot and dry and dirty, and really wanted a quick bath. She says her name is whitecold - I suppose she is rather pale... And I never realised pigs were so smart! I guess they're just not very talkative, or I would have known sooner!

Day 5 of Moonfair, 11.00am
Just got back from walking the pig. Or perhaps being walked by the pig. Rather than walking her she walked me. Very fast. Unfortunately the ground was still muddy from the rain the other day, so of course when she took off I landed in the mud. And she got away. I'd hoped she'd have come back but it seems not. Better go and find her before Alad notices her gone.
Day 5 of Moonfair, 11.30am
I found her. Somehow she'd made her way to the fountain at the front of the main house, and she was doing what she'd wanted: bathing. A crowd had gathered outside, and I think I may have seen the Master of Obernewtyn watching. With a grin on his face. I'd dragged her away quickly, but I won't escape Alad's attention now. It wouldn't surprise me if he set it up though.
Day 5 of Moonfair, 12 pm.
Great. Alad told me off for letting one little pig out of her pen. One day, I'm going to..set the pigs on him and see how he likes it! Why don't people let me have fun, and run around all day!? Do I look like I want to be a nice setlled down house wife when I grow up? Nuh-uh.
I am going to come up with a plan that will show those guys whose boss! 8) I just need cheese...plenty of cheese..Hmm. *plots some more*

ok, i've somehow managed to get the cheese, now to hide it where nobody will notice it for a while... hmm... i know! i'll hide it in the least most likely place.. |:| toodles diary!
Day 5 of Moonfair, 1.30pm
right-o i got it hidden! and you'll never guess where, diary! ;D i hid it in Alad's room! he'll never find it there, and nobody will think to look for it there either! ;D i am so smart, its a wonder that the world doesn't revolve around me... i think i'll go and have a quick bite to eat!

Day 5 of Moonfair, 7.30pm
Am in hiding. Unfortunately the cheese turned very smelly in the heat and Alad's room is not inhabitable. Decided to run away and take Whitecloud with me for company. She mentioned something about hanging around waiting for the Master of Obernewtyn but i convinced her that the caves further up the mountains would be a good place to for a meeting.
I'm pretty sure the teknoguild have stores up there so at least i won't go hungry...again.
Day 5 of Moonfair 8pm
One of the tecknoguilders has found me and run off to tell Garth! I just know that Garth will tell Alad where I am and I'll have to endure another lecture about imaturity and never acting serious...all that great stuff that he likes to use. I was hiding in the food store room of the technoguild caves, but now I am going to find a different hiding spot.
Day 5 of Moonfair 8.15pm
Lud darn it! I was caught be the technoguilder who found me and Garth while trying to find a new hiding spot. Whitecloud was aloud to go free and she returned to the mainhouse without any hastle! However, I was put into the care of this oh so gracious snooping technoguilder while Garth went down to speak to Alad about me! What is wrong with all these people? It's not like I'm hurting anyone! Just having a little fun is all. Don't they ever have fun?
Day 5 of Moonfair 10.00 pm
So they let me starve by making me help Javo in the kitchens...again, thus making me skip nightmeal. :| And then telling me to go straight to bed. But I am ever so clever and pretended to go to the watercloset, and ran off to Zarak's room. XD Zarak and I have decided to go on an adventure to Sador and then the Land of the Red Queen. Z said he dreams about the Red Queen's Land sometimes ... how odd to dream about a place you have never been too. I talked to Coldwhite about it once and she sent that the beasts call them ashlings.
My philospophy is: Why bother having adventures in your dreams when you can have them in real life? :D Z and I are planning to leave tomorrow morning, hidden in the back of a bandwagon headed for Aborium. I'm so excited!
