Today, I almost got killed by a tentacle monster... fml.

So after the battle yesterday we found a bedroom and all of us went to sleep. In what seemed like no time at all the drunken dwarf was yelling at everyone to wake up because something was coming toward us. I peeked outside to see what was the matter. Guess what, tentacle monsters, really fucking horrible. Ugh how could anyone worship that thing? So while the clerics were armoring up Ru and I rushed out to help Karkanna and the others. I hit it with a few arrows and that was good, then I flanked it and it stabbed me. With its horrible tentacle weapons of death.

What the fuck.

After two hits I passed out. I don't really remember what happened but Urijah says I woke up for a bit when she healed me.... right before the monster knocked me out again. After that the house d'Sivis gnomes came and cleaned everything up. Which was nice of them. I got some new boots and gloves that we pulled off the rogue down there. But most of the money and scrolls went to the gnomes. The warforged 6709 looked quite sad when she handed over them but we managed to convince her it would be easier this way. Most importantly we found out today that the warmage was not, in fact, a human. Instead it turns out she was a daelkyr half-blood. She showed us her carapace. Ru is not cool with having a passer in the group. Hopefully this won't start anything up. We still haven't learned much about her yet.

So after the cleaning out of the creepy goblin lair, we all rode the elevator back up to Evanwroat's house. Gimble went to see if he was okay, because he was looking kind of broken up. Turns out he and Jasson had a thing going. Apparently his wife was a political thing and his real love was Jasson. Bummer for him, but I think talking to Gimble helped. Also we were introduced to a new fighter who is I guess going to help us on our next errand. I don't think it is a good omen that we are going to need another fighter hired by the house to help on our next quest.

I wanted to thank Urijah for healing me down in the cogs so I went to talk to her after dinner. We got to talking and she told me about how she got to be a half-orc. Basically her dad is a bastard who goes around raping innocent women. So she was raised by her order and now is on a quest to find and kill him. It is a very admirable cause. Pretty much if we ever encounter him I'm advocating the absolute destruction of his being. On a less violent note she is generally pretty cool and I always admire those on the path of vengeance.

After that we finally got to sleep on nice beds and I could attempt to heal from the beating that I took. Hopefully we just won't have to deal with anything else really bizarre until everyone is done resting. On a separate note, I really need to get a better stabbing weapon. I love my dagger and everything but as shown by the tentacle fight, it is not doing enough damage. Basically if I am killing something I want it to be really fucking dead. A dagger just isn't doing enough to accomplish that. I'll see about getting someone to buy one for me tomorrow. After sleep.

    I'm really glad you didn't die.

    Don't leave me with these people.
