First Page:

 Well, i think im already an adult elf or im near... My woodcrafting is growing up... Im a good baker... well i like it but, i feel something is missing. I want to be an Arcane Archer, like my parents, i feel, the skill, the power of a true archer. I know my parents died a long time ago... but i remember, my father, mother... i remember... father coming from the woods, bringing my food, and what i've needed. Or... Mother, protecting me with her bow. Well that's what i want to be, an Arcane Archer, and I know, I CAN, father, mother, it's on my blood, i will be! I've mastered the longbow! I've made many ogres blind with an arrow, protected friends, completed jobs, did many things. Then... the way is continue to do what im doing, training hardly, using my bow. I know, I know... not when but... one day... one day... i will be an Arcane Archer, i can feel it. I want to be like my parents, I will be.

Second Page:

 Well, become a true archer is not easy as I expected.
Now, Jacchri, is teaching me the way, the "secrets" of a true archer. I've already made three oak longbows... just in the first step, i was not placing the string correctly, but, now i know how to attach the bow string to the bow correctly, thanks to Jacchri. Its a hard job, but will be so good when i finish all lessons. My second lesson, arrow making, is being so hard too. I have to craft a total of 1200 arrows, all from oak, 100 of each type of feather and head. With all this, my wood crafting skill, is growing up so fast as i never seen before. I also learned smelting and tinkering, due to the necessity to craft arrowheads by myself. I hope i finish this lesson soon, then i will be closer to my objective. Everything i learned... was very hard, i got very tired... But, i know its good for me. Then, Thank You Jacchri. I will never forget his lessons and his help.

Third Page:

Yesterday, i went at haven, with Sallaron and Shamur, we went there for iron i've used in my arrows.It wasbetter than i expected, me Sallaron and Shamur did a very nice job, i've also killed some ogres with a single shot. I think it was a training for my archer skills, those who growing up every day, im training very hard to reach my objective. It's amazing, and a good notice for me, i think it means im not so far from my objective.
Today, i've also finished the 1200 arrows, all made of oak, but, didn't found Jacchri to show it to him, another job, well done.

Fourth Page:

 Today, i've felt something in my hands. Then, i was bored, and gone hlint outskirts north to train a bit of archer skills, as i want to be an arcane archer, im training hard. While i was walking, i got ambushed by some orcs and i wasnt prepapred for a fight. When i placed my hands defensively, magic missiles were shoot by me! Amazing, it killed the orc instantly. Then, i used one of my old arcane tricks, to get some defense. Pointed again to an orc... and more missiles... the third orc, a single shot in the head was enough. I got tired, then, left the place, one to a safe place, and rested.
 When i woke up, i gone to outskirts again, to try to get control of it. While there, saw a mage, he said some words and missiles were fired. I payed attention on his words, when i got alone, saw more orcs, repeated his words and made the movement and missiles flied to the orc, killing him. Did it again, and poof! Another one, then i've got invisible, got hidden behind a tree, and two shots were enough for the orc.
 Fascinated with the magic, i've trained for some hours, and mastered it, now, when i can, i say the words and poof! Missiles grow from my hands and fly to the enemy, then if not enough, an arrow and it's done.
 I have also searched for Jac, to show him i've did what he told me to do as an arcane archer disciple. But didn't had luck on this, i didnt found him.

Fifth Page:

 Today i went at Haven mines, helping my friend Sallaron Tempest with iron, i've also had a good train for arcane archer with the ogres that "WERE" protecting the iron, before they get killed by me and Sallaron. Wasn't so hard, im getting good with shoting, missed a few arrows while fighting with the ogres. Was a good train to me, and good for sallaron too, i've grown up in my skills and he got iron and grow up a bit too. I have trained my defensive arcane magic too, while Sallaron was distracted with a ogre, sometimes another came, and i had to protect myself, not so hard, due to the arcane magic help, i seen i've grown up since i started to train, my defenses are better and my attack is better, my woodcrafting, smelting and tinkering also grown up with the arrow making, to make my attacks more stronger. It's a hard train, but if it's needed to become an arcane archer, i'll do it.

Sixth Page:

 Today, i went with Sallaron, "just" exploring and training a bit with our bows. While we walking, we found an elven ranger... He attacked us, and we had to kill him, as i saw my bow skills were better than his, me and Sallaron killed him easily. But that not counts... compared to what happened after.
 Me, Salla, and an unknown place... We were walking, exploring, while we saw something moving, i just saw a shadow, but it disappeared, then a sneak on Salla, something bird like attacked him, then i shoot it, when it got dead, we saw more things moving, then got invisible, again a sneak attack agaist Salla, we also killed some more, wasn't so easy, i can say it was a bit hard, they disappearing and hurting... ouch...
 After sometime exploring, and killing bird like monsters, we were walking while we saw many of them, some time after, there were none of them, they got invisible, then i shoot when i spot one moving trought leaves, me and Salla killed these, but we knew there were more of them, and... AMBUSH! 3 attacking Sallaron directly, i started to shoot, faster as i could, then we were running, shoting, getting hurt, and bleeding, when one died, we expected it was going to get easier but, another one sneaked me, i started to run and shot, almost fall, i killed this one, and runned to help Sallaron, he almost died, me too. Survive, was the reward, was a very hard thing, an ambush, well done one.
 At least i got alive and Salla too, then we back to hlint, to rest after a very tiring day, that we learned many things.

Seventh Page:

 Well, the way things happening... i could see im not being lucky... today at berhagen, me, Kyle, Rain and Sonya, we went there for some giants, to get experience. Ok, everything right, since we left hlint, until we get at berhagen... when there, i casted my defense spells, Sonya and Rain theirs, and rain casted some spells on Kyle. Then, Rain told me to lure then, but, Kyle, though he would be the lurer, because Rain casted heavy defense spells on him. Ok. But... when i did lured one Giant, Kyle already lured 3 or 4, dont remember exactly, then, more 1... I can remember the battle, big boulders "flying", Kyle getting hurt, while Sonya fall down... Then, while me and Kyle fighting, Rain fall too, i started to run and shot, until the giant that was following me died, then i helped Kyle, who almost died too. Just me and Kyle survived, a very hard battle, a good train. While Rain and Sonya were coming back to get their graves, me and Kyle also killed more 3 giants, another good train to me and Kyle also. After, Sonya and Rain got their graves, all back to normal. This day i learned good things, how to survive from a giant attack. Every day... Growing up to Arcane Archer way...

Eighth Page:

 Today, i was travelling, killing some griphons, giant ants, training, was a bit bored, was just trying to find something to do. Then i found some people, going to kill satyrs. I... travelling, searching something to do, joined them. Once we get in the place, me and Cymeran gone in front, he, blocking arrows, hurting them, me, shoting, "behind" him and his shield. Not hard we used a good strategy, we rushed them, didnt gave time to the shamans cast, i've also shoted on the Satyrs with an axe, the axes were big as they were... So, those who were wielding axes, fall, not getting time to sneak Cy, me and cy, killed the satyrs on the middle, the others around, the other guys killed. Somethings i've found that are interesting, satyrs are good to train shots, they are hard, then, you have to shot on the vulnerable points, thats what i did, trained aim, so good, they run, and you must hurt them, until they fall, or, you fall. They are good to train, i expect to go more times, i trained a lot. I expect to go kill some giants this week, they good, and, i must train harder as i can, as im a disciple, and want so much to become an arcane archer.

[vitor]

Nineth page:

 Well, i've been doing much these last days, just shoted more than a thousand arrows, been with Sallaron and we went at Ajari Swamps many times, training hardly, one of the times, Godim was with us too. Wasnt easy, but wasnt hard, its getting easier each time, what means we growing up. I hope i'll hunt more times on ajari, is a good train, i cant grow up with my bow eating apples, i must shot and kill my enemies.
 I've also went at the woods, gettting aloe. bah... a easy thing, smiles, i awlays harvest it, i just use one of my tricks, invisiblity. Arcane magic makes life easier. Be an Arcane Archer would make my life better and happier.
 *then Celith smiles sightly*
 Not much to write this time, just hunted trolls, hope i do more things in the next month, i also crafted a oak shortbow for a gentle man called Mizu Kaze, must do more craftings, arrows or bows maybe, wood craftings.

Tenth Page:

 Not long ago, i went at dregar with a group, Rain, Kyle, Daniel, Elgon, Dora, Mercas, Kinson (hope i didnt forgot anyone). We killed lots of giants, i, lured many of them and scouted a bit. We first went at the forest, then the cave inside the forest. This time no one fall, but it not means there wasnt situations that people almost saw soul mother. Everything was ok, after the forest, the Anuroch desert, and the caves, we got ambushed 2 time in one cave, i dont remember exactly if we got ambushed more times, was a very long hunt, too many giants killed. About Prantz... oh... the rules... get angry only remembering from there, i had to walk... i never walk i awlays run... had to remove my cat's rings from my fingers... my cat's necklace from my neck... Also, theres an arena in the city, dont know what for, the city is very strange now.
 I also delivered an shortbow i made by oak to a woman called Kit on Haven, then she gave me an Helmet of Armor, its being so useful for me, combined with some magic, can be very good.
 I think im not so far to be an Arcane Archer, im trained in scouting, trained with arcane magic and some tricks, good at aim, crafting wood so good, i know the bow and the arrows, just think what is missing is some concentration while shoting... sometimes i miss because im distracted, but soon, i'll try to get some help to "fix" that.

[vitor]

Eleventh Page:

 Not been writing stuff here for long time... been busy... work... hunting... and cooking too. I can't remember exactly, but one or two times, i went at dregar, killing giants... hah, awesome as ever, they coming in large numbers... with their brute strenght, but, the skilled warriors and casters, killing them, even having less then half of their size, but with a lot skill, cunning and intelligence.
 About haven... so many times there with some friends, most of them, getting iron, for arrowheads, sometimes platinum too, for arrowheads (now i can craft arrows with platinum heads! yay! awesome). Ogres as awlays a challenge, but, with skill, protected with some arcane magic, never so hard *then he grins*, it's getting easy, as i grow up.
 These last days, were so good, been helping two gentle ones, Christine, and Dakota, they are brothers, and new at hlint, very nice people, been showing them some places and such, also helped them with some tasks with goblins. I also helped them to get their first full plate, copper made, we got the copper nuggets, i've crafted them to ingots, then we bought some patterns, and Lillian crafted it for us (i thank you lil). They seem better now, more protected.
 About today, lead a monk to some elderberries, protected by skunks, ahh, stinky. We also killed some kenku, followed by treants at high forest. They were three, two monks, one cleric, but all of them, fighting unarmed, just tera, the cleric, with a shield. Kinda interesting. They nice people.
 Afterall, i've crafted a oak shortbow for Sindor, one of the monks, he needed to deliver it to haven. At the crafthall, i've met a very nice bard, ms. Brielle, what a "deadly" bard *then he grins and remembers". Very nice person, im happy i've made some very good friends this time.
 Well, everytime with my bow, can't believe, my oak bow, enhanced with bow parts 2, it's almost part of my arm... im so linked to it, and now, i've learned how to focus on it more properly, with train, cunning and skill, i could do this. So better now, i can open close my eyes for some time, listen to the ambient sound, many things can bwe listened, then, open eyes, and aim fast and enough to shot an evil creature's head. Awlays holding my bow, i do the possible to help good people, train myself, and do justice. Not failed anytime those days.
 Better wood crafting, tinkering, smelting (arrows hah!), foodcrafting (sometimes i must eat good things), also, skills, cunning, intelingence, (im more calm!) not so anxious with things as after, not so nervous... ehh... good things.
 Grow up as person and archer *remembers he wants so much to become an arcane archer*.

Twelfth Page:
  *remembers* Oh... long time i dont write something here... now i have some time for it. Some time ago, Been weeks at Dregar, most of these trips, to Saudiria, cant remember exactly how many Sandrunners gone down, but i can say were soooooo many, lots of giant mages too, also monks, most of these Dregar trips, i had help of Janice Stellar, a very nice sorcerer, who i met in on the first trip. I also had help of Shamur and Sallaron, my old times friends.
  A thing i can remember, and i'll never forget is whenI and Jan found Jacchri, oh, he did fall, many forest giants got him, but fisnished fine, all got ok to the end. But, that doesn't count, compared to what we saw... Jac lead us to aplace, a secret place, near a temple of Folian... We did climbed a hill with some vines, and... we reached top... I coundn't believe it wasn't a dream, a place where we could feel the peace, animals all around, plants... Full of life, the most beaultiful thing i ever seen, i could jump to the tree tops, pat animals heads...was so good to be there,i felt sooo fine there, as never before.
  Aswell, dont had much fun after getting back from Dregar. Well, been to haven as always, for some materials. But for now, im relaxing, preparing for the "great day".

Last Day of an Archer, when he Becomes Arcane Archer.
  Everything was going alright... another common day, just killing giant ants on hampshire, me, Shamur andSallaron, and Drogo been there for a bit too, while, a misterious elf wizard appeared. She said she have been watching me for some time, she also said i was an skilled archer and such, capable... Then i'd spotted a group of elven archers in the next ant hill, so, we moved to that hill, there the elven woman explained the elves didn't had a leader, their own was dead, and needed someone to lead these elves. She told to lead them to the anuroch deserts, and then vanished. Lead the elves wasn't easy... they were wanting to have a tour on minstone... Then, we started to move to take a boat to Hurm, there the tactics and positions were explained. Then, we started to move, me, Sal and Shamur, from Hampshire toLeilon, thento Hurm.
  On Hurm, the elves slept for some long time at the ship, while i discussed tactics with Shamur and Sallaron. When they woke up, moving again, after we kill some wild rangers near the Bay of Carocsa, Shamur had to leave. Then... across the mountains, the North Fort, and we were at Anuroch, and finally, Saudiria. At Saudiria, the misterious elven lady appeared again, and explained their old leader died due to some... "mistake" of her, and i had an "opponent" waiting for me at the Forest of Mists. Moving... again... On the way, there were some giants, on the sands, then the comand: Fire! And then 12 strings "yelling" loud, and the giants falling. Then, the way to Mists, and then mists.
  At mists, there was another archer, that oneseemed to be my "opponent", and challenged me, the one who can kill the leader of the Broken Glade Clan with a single shot, is capable of leading. There was the challenge, i got so nervous... then, i had some elven wizards and rangers at my side, to prove i was capable. We killed all their grunts, and, the Leader was there, outside the cave, waiting for a challenge.
  I concentrated, rested, and prepared some spells, theni casted some magical shields, and walked into the forest to face the leader, I saw him, furious, looking at me, so i casted the True Strike, pulled the string. . . and some more pulling. . . when it got closer. . . I aimed his forehead, pulled the string a bit more. . . and . . .THUNK! . . . and the giant fall back, with the arrow carved on his head. I got my skinned knife, and removed the head from it's body, to show the other elves.
  The head have been showed, all seemed to be finished, when, the elf i found at mists, said i had to chose him or the elven wizard that "mistaked" with their old leader, one would have to lead the wizards and rangers. Much thinking, and then, an idea appeared, the lady would lead the wizards, and the other one, the rangers. It was hard to think, but was the best decision i could find.
  Problems were solved, i showed i was capable, and since that day, Celith Xillow the skilled archer, became: Celith Xillow, The Arcane Archer.
