Journal: Biao Feng

*the first few pages of this book are covered with scribbles and diagrams of various combat stances with arrows pointing to their strong points and openings *

First entry:
I have journeyed to a place known as 'Hlint'.  There seems to be some opportunity here.  Already I've run several errands and taken up a number of odd jobs.  I also met a very dark-skinned elf named Unthuz, who sold me an astonishingly high-quality dao.  It is not quite the same as the one I have now, and its balance feels slightly different.  It will take me a while to get used to it.

*there are more diagrams of various sword stances, this time utilizing a shield*

Second entry:
I have journeyed much this week.  Through observing a man by the name of Kaizer, I have learned the art of the continuous strike.  That is, I now understand how to cut through an opponent and carry the blow into another.  I also purchased a shield of notable quality from him.  He seems to have quite some skill with the smith's hammer.
