I Hate MONdays! (I'm Not Sorry)

(This entry is shakily written and has many pauses)

Damn my curiosity, it's going to get me killed one of these days... After leaving Bystanar, we had about a week before we reached Vargarstaad and I figured it was a decent time to work on the some theories I had about the Mon. I found that two people could not use it at the same time, as well as one person couldn't transfer their energy for the other person to use. Akash then tried using the mon to control other elements with his magic, but could only increase the strength of his air magic. He was able to create a damned water spout, so at least we have a fairly easy way to deal with enemy ships should we be pursued by anyone. After all of that, I tried to contact whatever entity gave power to the Mon, and found myself in an empty void. Standing above me was a dark figure with a spear in hand... I don't know if it was its influence, or if it was natural curiosity, but I tried to grab its hand. Before I could, the Mon was snatched out of my hand by Diallo, thankfully I might add. In reality , my veins turned black, but the black energy or substance seemed to ooze out through my body and was covering me. I couldn't breathe and apparently came closest to death out of everyone on the crew who had used the Mon. I need to be much more careful.... 


Well it seems that we have new passengers of sorts. As we were coming into Vargarstaad, we passed by a Skenden longship that had suffered damages due to some behemoth of a whale. I knew in an instant that Captain Sitara, a woman reckless enough to rival my sister, wanted to fight that damn whale. Sadly for those sailors they lost one of their ships to this leviathan, but we should be able to get them into shore safely. On the plus side, this should give us a bit of credit along with our good deeds in Bystanar, so any favors we need here may be a bit easier to pull off.
