By Ca'Duz I loathe this place. In my own city I was able to walk the streets and slaves and lesser races would shy from my path. But here I am forced to pretend to be one of those I hate the most. Is this a test perhaps? Because if its a joke its a very bad one. I hate pretending to be a surfacer elf and worse still forcing myself to use their tongue to continue the disguise.
The one thing that keeps me from throwing myself at the nearest surfacer city and taking out my frustration is Ardreth. He has taken the time to cousel me and remind me about the teachings of Ca'Duz. Therefore I have dedicated my time to practising with my blade, to hone it to its greatest strength, with Ardreths help I am growing quicker, more adept. Our sparring duels grow more vigourous, I am holding my own better against the quick and sharp blade of Ardreth, but still I know I have a long way to go to match his skills. Who knows, perhaps one day I will even surpass him.
