*In Fort Llasts temple of Toran*

I went into Storan's crypts with Miss Gala, Miss Alaltriel and Raz. Nothing that wasn't too hard. Miss Gala warded us a whole lot and it helps unbelievably. She'd go in and cast a few spells and the undead people would fall around. Was a great light show with the surrounding gloom. The whole time, Raz was going at it with her, complimenting on this and complimenting on that... get's old after a while really but Miss Alatriel promised to go skinny-dipping with him agian if he'd stopped... He didn't want to stop I could tell, but we were almost done so why not take it?

Hitting the dead creatures where it would normally kill an alive creature doesn't work but Miss Alatriel would pull a shadow or two around her and disappear from sight. I was impressed and was planning to ask right before she left if she would teach me. Writing the end of how we killed Storan and everything isn't too exciting so I'll skip that.

We were at the road leading away from or to Fort Llast when we started talking about Muhk and we argued... well I did mostly because I know how it is to be stereotyped and seen as a freak of nature and to be looked down apon becuase of my race or looks. So naturaly, I feel I have to defend him even though I barely know him. I've argued on and on with Lance, Miss Daniella, Raz and a highly ranked Toranite with a deadly gaze, Miss Anne Ravenwind. They'd give anyone a horrendous (big word, note to self, it means horrible) migrain. They point out all the facts needed to either condemn or save Muhk... they all look to see him hang in the town square. If they are so blood thirsty... doesn't that make them like Muhk? Muhk seemed alright to me but I've only talked to him for a hour or two and that was over the price of iron.

I was tired of the subject and Raz started in on Miss Gala and her sister, Miss Sil, and Miss Sil's sister, Miss Ayana (I'm still being around Toranites to long... with all the "Miss" but it's a sign of respect and I'll more than likely use it for now on... ) and how he's going on a date with with Miss Ayana and is nervous about it. There was alot to it but I don't have the best memory. Miss Gala said if Raz was going to start pursuing her like he does every other woman around then she'd have to start on her dark magics. Raz asked if she was going to start wearing dark leathers while she's casting and I offered to make her some. But I remember something Trith said to a woman about having to get her measurements so I tried it.. Raz grinned and so did Miss Alatrial and Miss Gala... guess they didn't think I could hit on a woman once or twice. Miss Alatriel warned Miss Gala that I'm after her and such but it's not like that... she does look rather fine in armor but I'll keep that opinion to myself. We talked about how if I was a woman, men would be coming sailing across the world just to catch a glimpse of me, I was joking and everything and they know I was too. I said that would never really happen, no woman has really looked at me with even in the least of desire, I doesn't bother me much and something triggered for me to tell those before me that I have never kissed a woman. Raz looked like he saw... the most horrible thing possible before him with the way he looked at me. Of course I talk alot of smack saying I'd get every woman from the corners of the world and can move mountians and that I'm so strong but they know I'm playing. I can't really move anything let alone lift a rock that fell on Miss Sil like most people can. But I started to walk off and to find something to do so I don't have to listen to everything they were thinking of saying when Miss Alatriel said that I guess I didn't want a kiss since I decided to go off and hide. I turned back to her not knowing what to say, I think I was to late for one if that was what she was hinting but I said I'll take one willingly. Raz warned me that she's not the best of kissers that I wouldn't miss out. She sort of agreed with him but I pointed out that if I've never kissed any one, then how would I know what's good or bad and what I do or do not like? I knew that would trap her... I figured she'd dissappear before I could even ask if she could teach me shadows. But she just grinned and gave me a kiss, nothing to extreme, but not just a peck, not sure if she was playing around or joking. Didn't know if I was to kiss her lips or if she thought I was a child and was going to kiss my cheek. I had no idea what I was doing. It was over too soon really. Kissing holds alot of emotion, figured that's why Trith, Raz and Chaynce are trying to get one every now or then. Maybe I'm just thinking to much of it? But hey, it's my first kiss, it was pretty good.

I asked for another for the trip back home and she declined, and Raz said to keep at it to wear her down. So I asked agian for one on the cheek, but yet agian she denied saying it's a one time deal. Yes, I was dissapointed but no need to keep at it to irritate her. She started to dissipate into the shadows and I didn't know where she was. I called out to her asking if she has any time to teach someone something. Raz took it the wrong way, and headed off to give us time alone. He left and I asked if she could teach me to dance with the shadows like she does. She sat down and asked why I wanted to learn the shadows. I never thought of it, they just interested me. I said that I would rather be a help to a group than just running away when things got bad, maybe I could bandage someone up real quick before they lost to much blood or hopefully be able to jump across that boundary of light and shadow to get in a couple of strikes to finish whatever it is that's hurting us. For once, I would rather be the brave hero instead the one that runs away. I don't know if I want to learn for good or for selfish reasons. I feel like I can almost reach out and touch one of the shadows in the corner but they never respond. Miss Alatriel explained to me that she is still new at the dancing and that she may not be able to teach me. I didn't know if it was me or what, but it stung a bit. She said she learned from a halfling as well and pointed me to a group that may be able to teach me. She also explained that I may have "it" in me but some people don't. I'm worried I don't have whatever "it" is that is needed. I'm going to search for those she pointed too. I seriously hope I have it in me.

That's all I have.
