Desmond Cusick's Diary

Now I have a bear living in my house. There have been stranger things, I suppose--like a wolf, a raven, and a rabbit.

I think I'll get a new couch tomorrow. This one has too many memories is old and uncomfortable. I should convert the childr spare bedroom into a guest room, so that I'm not inconvenienced when there are surprise visitors.

The Kargas have moved to Fairhaven. It's better than their cramped place in Bridgelight, I'm sure. It also gives me the opportunity to pick up some free white wine.

( 'Now, who is this friend of yours. A healthy young lady I see.' [Callisto] )

Desmond runs into Erol and Callisto outside the Na'Ostiria clinic and acquires a small cask of white wine and a very large bear-woman.

An interesting man. Ilse would have liked hi It will be even more interesting to meet the rest of the family. I never pegged Radovan as a family sort.

( '. . . iron by itself is powerful, but it's true strength lies in joining other metals to make even stronger ones.' [Erol (NPC), Radovan] )

Desmond takes Radovan up on the offer to meet at Nautical Nellie's, and he meets the crow's father, Erol. Erol gives him some advice, and the two wrassle. Desmond is invited to dinner later on.
