The following is a recollection from Jarock Hammer-Shield, a secluded Ork Weaponsmith. The text remains unaltered to maintain its authenticity. It is written in Or'zet.

Went on a quest. Something about a questor. Mynbruje. Got to a town. Town was empty. My team looked for a man named Victor. Went underground. Fought some Firbruids. Found some Kreescria. Nasty things, very lucky. Hard to hit. Difficult fight, but no one died.

Nib, his usually useful self. Protection by spells. Lots of mind daggers, if that's even a real thing. Little damage, so doubtful. Will need more evidence. Bloodbeat, still scary, but less than her usual self. Mal and Redsun, the usual archer duo, much damage. I'm glad they're doing well, though they seem tired quite often.

Firbruids knocked me over. No worries. Team knocked them down to me. I could've taken a nap. The Kreescria surrounded us. Redsun very evidently worried. Team followed orders and we survived the fight. Three Kreescria ran away. Convinced Beastmaster to stop taking advice from a possible doppleganger. Dopple ganger had a giant maw, but his hold on the beastmaster was released, thanks to Nib and Bloodbeat. Spent the night. Redsun, Bloodbeat, and I had nightmares. Poor sleep quality. Finished the Kreescria, but they did take down Bloodbeat. This is unacceptable. I cannot allow harm to my teammates.

Will continue to develop combat prowess. I will be the rampart that separates my allies from death and danger. For now, still hate journals. Weaponsmith, not scholar.
