I've learned a new trick my silent friend. One of the young lasses has taken to me and she's taught me how to bend backward and lift my body up to balance on my hands. Next she tells me she'll teach me to walk a thin beam. I've found that the things she teaches me actually have helped to improve my abilities with my weapons. She's pretty, prettier than I am. She would have been snapped up in my village with no one knowing it. She doesn't know my secret though. Last night I found her hand on the inside of my thigh. Gods, what am I to do? If she traveled up much further she'd only find the socks I use in my leggings.
On a side note, the captain does know my secret. He said he'll keep it safe though. I seem to remind him of his own daughter, that he lost to an orc raid many many years ago. I find myself often looking at him and wishing he was my father. I wonder how life would have been if he was.
Sorry so short tonight. I have a long day tomorrow. Goodnight for now.
