Sedgewick's Journal

It's official: I have sold the entire duchy to the goblins. This is entirely the fault of the Council. I accept no blame for what happened: it was an entirely predictable, understandable response to their abuse. If they could not forsee me doing this, they should not be rulers of a country. Anyway, Kazri and I are now on the lam. As part of our deal, we have gained access to the goblin tunnel network between my duchy and the adjacent ones. We are heading to Eltibule, as it should be the easiest to hide in.

Kazri has had a genius idea. When we found the Eltibule's daughter's spirit bound in the earth, everything fell together. She is now Kazri's puppet, and she has scared the other Eltibule brat out of the duchy! There's no ruler here now! Hahahaha! I have helped myself to the more valuable commodities in this miserable duchy, but I am eager to move on. However, Kazri has been interrogating this ghost. Seems she knows something about a font of necromantic darkness. I hope this doesn't delay us overmuch.
