<em><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Journal chapter XV, penned by Fhalash, ifrit prince of Red Dunes, son of Blazyon, Resplendent Fire 8, 767</strong></span><br/><br/>We have arrived finally to Chiaroscuro. We had booked ourselves to a respectable inn in the old city and are now literally catching our breaths for days running even since she openly defied the Wyld Hunt. Princess is now feeling better, she had been in city before and she had loved it's history and lore during her journeyman years and had loved south overall from all countries. But however she is troubled at times and I can see when her thoughts drift to the events to past what she did not want remember.<br/><br/>I have tried my best accompany her and cheer up, however I am not sure should I be grateful or worried for rumors we heard. People disappearing, walls painted in color of blood during Calibration days and odd dark chorus chants heard in undercity. These traits had not been in Chiaroscuro so prominent in local news when I and she were last time in here. So now she focus mind to figure things out but always cautious she performed few summons. She called the Jokun brothers Tomaki and Komashi and also summoned two flame ducks; Vivel and Dely.<br/><br/>I tried tell princess that my protection is all she needs she said I cannot be two places at same time so she needs sometimes send me other tasks besides guarding her. I accepted the fellow elementals and all expect me walk dematerialized along with her. I am known in local area and seen before so if anyone thinks ambush princess while I am gone....they get sorely disappointed. As jokun brothers can be rather swift in judgement and their eye ability is useful protect others from princess anima flare.</em>
