Ieyori's Journal: ARR

[samureyeout]

Ieyori, as part of his daily meditations, keeps a journal. The following are important entries from the time he arrived in Eorzea with Yugiri (patch 2.2/Through the Maelstrom) until fleeing with Everyone's Grudge after the whole Crystal Braves debacle.

The entries are not dated with any recognizable dating system. Anyone capable of reading Doman would recognize lines of poetry where the date would go.

Anyone who knows Ieyori and is capable of reading Doman might realize Ieyori dates his entries with lines taken from one of twelve poems by his favorite poet.

The entries between this one and the first mostly talk about training and adjusting to life in the Twelveswood. One entry is clearly the rough draft of a letter to Yuwashi and the others, talking about trying to show the Carline Canopy's cooks how to make onigiri and getting covered in rice. This entry is about a month and a half after the first.

Apparently Lady Yugiri is having difficulties finding a home for our people in this land. I can't say I'm surprised. My work with the guild took me out to Quarrymill the other day, where I met some refugees from Ala Mhigo. They too were denied aid by the elementals and their homeland lies on the other side of the great wall to the east. If neighbors were denied, what hope do we foreigners have?

I've heard they are staying in Ul'dah for now while the Scions of the Seventh Dawn work with the leaders to try and find a solution. I may make my way back to the desert for a time. I do not feel I belong there yet, but I should do my best to help my people.

A splotch, like the pen sat for a moment.

I miss my family.
