Ardeshir's Log'
Day one: This strange land seems to affect our powers adversely. On our first expedition into the city proper we were ambushed by bandits of some sort, and my efreeti have failed us utterly. My own magics also proved unreliable, and it seems we shall have to take some of my household guard with us from now on. I will also look into binding this realm's spirits to our will, but that might be a long and ardous process. Let us hope the sagestone we found will be helpful in this endeavor, as the library is out of reach for now.
Day three: While searching for more sagestone to further my efreet-related experiments, we have stumbled upon heathen mercenaries. They seemed to have an unquenchable desire for the stones, although for what purpose I cannot fathom. My efreeti are beginning to adjust to new conditions, and have obliterated the heathens. They retain their basic property of feeding on slain enemies and will likely get stronger in the future, possibly even regaining their former powers. We have also stumbled upon a local resident, in a sad state of mind and body. After questioning him we gained some insight into the state of the city, but still the library eludes us. I will endeavor to summon and bind more spirits to help with our search, as well as look into obtaining local help.
Day four: I am proud of my apprentices. We were beset by Eshin assassins last night, and the boys not only managed to warn me and my guard but to draw the skaven away, allowing us to ambush the ambushers. Rahim was dispersed by a rather ingenious weapon using sagestone shards as ammunition. I shall summon and bind him again when time allows. I have also noticed I'm growing more practiced with my simplest spells, the only ones that work in this chaotic land.
