[[1490-12-26|<< 26 Nightal 1490]] | [[1490-12-28|28 Nightal 1490 >>]] ## 27 Nightal 1490 The foundation is not yet complete; I will have to finish it tomorrow. Shouldn’t put me behind schedule, though. And it’s good to take your time with the foundation anyway. Today I watched Skoll bury a piece of parchment under the marshy ground. When I asked him what the hell he was doing, he said that he was leaving a note for his friend, Hati. I am assuming that this is the same friend that Skoll talked about previously – the animal, the one who might be able to help us out of Barovia. I can’t say that my hopes are particularly high. I don’t think Skoll’s are, either; throughout the day, he kept checking the dirt above, looking more and more disappointed each time. Skoll is a strange fellow – that much is clear – but I wouldn’t go so far as to call him insane; I wouldn’t doubt that this method of communication has worked before. He does have magic, after all. Strangeness aside (or maybe because of this strangeness?), I do consider Skoll a good friend at this point, which isn’t easy for me to admit. I should honestly pull away from him – and Nia – just as I am trying to do with Ireena. But part of me doesn’t want to. Sure, it kind of sucks to be worried about people, to be sad when they're sad, to be disappointed when they're disappointed – but it’s also kind of nice to have people around who seem to value me in some way. Not that I need that, or anything. It’s just a good feeling. Anyway, this is getting embarrassing, and it’s getting late. Until tomorrow. --- ## Page Tags/Properties **Tags:** #Journal **Category:** [[Journals and Writings.base|Journals and Writings]] **Character:** [[Krue d'Avenir|Krue]] **Campaign:** [[Curse of Strahd]] **Date ([[Calendar of Harptos|Harptos]]):** 12/27/1490
