Here i'll do a chronicle for the sake of Falnorian junior league, i'll try to capture the events that went on from memory. Sadly the 1st two years in Werdyn have been lost. We're now in the Calamari islands off to the east. Sorry this is short and rushed but I'm not good at remembering 4 months back.
Month one.
I've arrived in Calamari. The day was sunny outside. I had not met any of my companions as of then, but we were quickly gathered in the inn. There I met my fellow adventurers. A storm had blown over (as were common in this area), and we went out pirate hunting. Some of you may know, the Calamari islands are very pirate populated. The government can't deal with all the pirates in the area, so we decided to deal with it. That first day we had some calamities. None of us were expecting having to pay for our own resurrections and identifies. We soon grew used to it, as was the custom here. I still believe it is uncalled for, but I don't wish to protest it. We already have our own government protests from others, but I will discuss that later. Not much happened in our first visit, the islands have their own problems, but not many at that time. A storm has been brewing, this is good for us, as the pirates who lurk in the sea will be forced onto the island. This is easy prey for the Calamari government.

Month two.
The storm is getting heavier. It's not natural, according to our storm mage. It's terrible and the city has sustained much damage. The pirates I assume have been hurt too, but maybe they'll get away this time, as it's too dangerous to be out there for long. Some of the new ogres have appeared, they're much nastier and not as friendly as we're used to. I'm not sure how they got here but it's most certainly not good. They're destroying everything, and i'm afraid this is only the beginning, as reports from other areas are having the same problem. Not much has happened this month as the storm was quite dangerous. We led an expedition with our storm mage (who I will say freely is not the nicest), to see what's the deal with this storm. We took down (or maybe we were taken down, I can't quite remember), a group of wolf people. I hate those things. We had some trouble with Hippocampi, maybe this was their breeding season, because there were lots of them. We did go after some pirates as they were trapped, we took down a few of them, but sadly there weren't many. Most were probably too far away for us to go in this storm. I hope this dreadful storm goes away, the city has already sustained so much damage.

Month three.
I cannot give full detail of this month's events as I have spent most of it traveling to the mainland for my training. We are experienced enough in the way of adventuring that we can take on a class. Anyway the city has begun repair, as the storm has cleared up. It appears as though we are getting a little break. I hope it gets finished before the storm comes back. With magical storms, it's impossible to tell when they'll be back. Finally. A disease has broken out in the docks of the main city, however I have neglected to help with it, as we are adventurers and not herbalists. The hob goblins attacked too. Only a small group of them, but extremely well trained and well equipped. Our party was ambushed and massacred, but luckily they didn't take our stuff, that would be bad. Note that I wasn't actually there, but I got first hand accounts from my friends. The disease, I fear, is more than just a disease. If it was a normal breakout I assume it would have been solved by now. Thanks for your time, and I will write again next month.

Month Four.
After completing my fire mage training, I came back to the Calamari islands, my brethren having gone into assassin and necromancer. A few stayed on the mainland and trained in viking and theif. A few wild mages too. We are now a full fledged party, and we took on some more challenging tasks. We discovered some poorly created counter fit coins. Shiny and coin looking at first, but a closer look would reveal it. Some archaic traps as well, quite effective, but not in the opinion of one biased person. Not naming any names of course. Last month we had a run in with some hob goblins, extremely powerful, at least compared to us at the time. They have not been seen since. We took down some pirates, there were some haunts but nobody likes haunts so we didn't bother. We also had to deal with the belle mourn military. Some problems with them "confiscating" things. Some of which weren't actually theirs. But hey, I wouldn't blame them. Who wouldn't want free stuff that's legal. Some anarchists were causing a problem, their symbol being a red sash tied around their waist or such. Tensions are getting high, if it blows up in a war with belle mourn and anarchists, i'll leave. I don't want another Ardel incident. At least I won't be the ones causing it ((nudge nudge wink wink)), as I've always been the trouble maker when I was a wee one. No sign of the Ram. I'd think a creature of such momentum would cause much fright. But than again, it's called the Calamari ISLANDS so it could always hide off on another island for the time being. I've heard it was trapped below the city in the ardel area, (I need to brush up on my history, but hey, I wasn't a history major in upper school) but I guess not any more. Honestly i'm kind of regretting ever going here, too much trouble. Lastly the disease is still present, again, I neglected to deal with it, but who can you blame, i'm still not an herbalist. However next month I will give it some thought, as I don't' want it to get out of hand,

I'll try to keep up with current events and have an entry every month
