The following is again written in Lucin.
It appears that this town is literally run by women, not that I'm complaining about that.
While looking for Rahan, I instead came across Zarkaylia, the town's elder. She's the author of the swordplay book I'm reading. Appears to be a somewhat capable leader and warrior, and she knows everyone I need to see: Victor, Lapis, and either of two hunters whose names currently escape me. I'll be doing some hunting work while the town's food supply is still low, though I'm sure if I was working with trade I could get food imports flowing again in a heartbeat. Nevertheless, hunting is an enjoyable sport and I'll be able to prove myself to this community as long as I'm directly providing the food.
Against my better judgment, I told Zarkaylia about the hatch, hoping she'd explore it a bit with me. I'm extremely interested in what's down there but I'm not suicidal. She took a look at it and suggested I tell the guard captain, Kane.
On my way to look for Kane, I came across a man who tuned out not to be a man. A pretty Lucin girl was patrolling town in a suit of armor; a damn waste of potential is you ask me. Her name was Adreanna, and unfortunately speaking Lucin is not going to work alone if I'm to get to know her better. She claims to hardly speak it, yet she understood everything I said with what seemed like relative ease. Hopefully this book will be a bit too advanced for her.
She did tell me of a family of Lucins living here, though: the Clarks. I believe the man Victor who's looking for employees is one of them. I'll have to see if one of them is fluent; I'd desperately like someone to speak it with. Writing it is one things but keeping my tongue sharp is another.
In any case. Adreanna and I descended the ladder. We went no farther than I myself had gone earlier before she made us turn back. Then she tried to evict me from my room. Luckily she was less than asserive on this matter and I'm staying for the time being. I'll have to speak with her again under more favorabe circumstances.
I'm not leaving the room, though. This room is too interesting to leave, even if sounds do come from the hatch at night.
I'm certain it's nothing.
