Why do so many questions come back to them? They abandoned me. If it were possible, I would never think of them again.

It is hard to believe that another month has come to an end. Time seems to be moving so quickly right now. Some might say that happens when one is having fun.
[writing becomes very uneven]
I am not so sure.

I wonder how much longer it will be until the maid whose position I am filling will return. There is something disconcerting about holding such a temporary position. Though perhaps I might...

This is a strange night. Sometimes I wonder if somewhere out there a candle is lit for a child gone missing so many years ago. A child abandoned.
It should not matter.

It is a rare night when so many servants are free. It leads to a very interesting atmosphere.
Hopefully tomorrow those who serve at the court will be allowed time for celebrations of their own.

Some of the servants are planning their own Night of the Dead celebrations, since all those we work for will likely be occupied at the court. Everyone has been invited.

I have the journal. I'm sorry it took so long.

There have been some odd rumors, coming from those who worked on the ship during the attacks. It has only just reached my ears, since I do not see the majority of them regularly.
I usually try not to spread gossip but it reminded me of something I read here. What apparently happened was that during the cleanup on the ship, a journal was found. At the time, no one paid it much mind but eventually someone noticed that it was a journal like the one I am writing in now.
I do not know much more than that. I believe one would have to speak directly to the servants from the Royal Court to learn more.

Only minor injuries but...
Dragons prevent me from ever being in an experience like that again.

Working on this ship is different from being in a household but not in an unpleasant way. At least not once I got used to the feel of the floor moving beneath my feet. I've heard it said that this ship is smoother than most and I am glad of it. It is a very unusual sensation.
I know I am not alone among the staff in hoping that all the guests are having a lovely time.

Yes, I am well aware of the risks. I am. But I have measured them against what the plant may do for me and it is a risk that is still worth taking.
I wonder how much longer this opportunity will last. They seem pleased with my work, perhaps it can be extended.

It always amazes me, how regular life seems to stop for one day and yet only a week later everything has gone back to normal.
[pause]
It probably means very little in the end...

If all goes well today, I shall be able to leave work early. I would like to spend some moments in the temple in quiet contemplation, before the service begins. I have more than usual to give thanks for this year and more to hope for in the next one.

The Comfrey Root helps but it is not enough. I shall have to look for Purple Lotus next time I am able.
This job can be difficult but I like it well enough. I wonder how long it shall last after all though, and how much money I should be saving and how much I might be able to send home. Mother will not like that but she will accept it. It is the only way I can help her now.

I have a question, though not for the Wednesday tradition.
Does anyone know of a stronger sleeping draught that might be available in Floran. I have tried the simple herbal remedies my mother taught me but they have had little effect. The trouble I am having is beginning to interfere with my work.

Other than not being able to sleep well, things are going smoothly this time.
Maybe I can do this.

I have been wearing a red scarf for the past couple of days. Has it worked yet, my lady?

This job is good. So far, at least.
I'm not sure what the other maids and servants think of me. I know I am not the most social person. I can be hard to approach.
But it is good.

There are many people with journals in Floran. Perhaps someone knows of a job that needs filling? It does not need to be permanent.
In fact it may be better if it wasn't.

I don't know why I am here anymore. Mother has Olivia to help her. She doesn't need me. That is what I wanted but where does it leave me? Cooking and cleaning? She doesn't need me to do that.
I hate feeling so useless.

I think she senses me watching her. She may not know why. How could she possibly know? She sees me as-
Dragons, what am I supposed to do?
