To Gimarazrasu Celestia:
I get the feeling this mission is going to change me, how much though I'm not sure. From as far back as I can remember I have only wanted one thing, to better the condition of and make a stable environment for Kovash Ja'haz. The descendants of the Great Gimarazrasu Chrysalis deserve more. We will always use secrecy and deception, but one day we will not have to do so with as much urgency. But, to increase our numbers we will need allies, both for food and other things. The decision at the New Bridle Pass battle was simple: if I have to choose between raider allies and others, I choose others.
I'm blessed to have brother Torax as a companion. While I commited myself to the study of kilisk, he follows what he calls the way of tuhil, and while I don't fully understand it, had he not noticed the tracker in the radio I might not have survived the fight with the Enclave. Still he deserves more credit with fighting than he accepts, he did exceptionally well in the battle of the New Bridle Pass. With our different philosophies we sould make for good advisers to each other, making us much more effective than we would be alone.
On the subject of potential allies, Alicorns usually come with the policy "shoot first and don't worry about if you'll ask questions later", however Shimmering Skies doesn't. Still unknown why, but one thing is certain: monsters don't heal others, and they don't aid you in a cave where they could easily backstab you. It seems that her initial fear effect was unwarrented (to the point that I found it rather humorous in the others, especially the skalishk who refused to have his legs repaired at no cost). At least we degisishk can blend in and not be discriminated against. I'm not and have never been quick to trust fully, but Shimmering Skies has been nothing but helpful and benevolent, even acepting my suggestions without question or complaint, indicating trust. Why would a monster trust someone she just met? Still I don't know her situation and for all I know she may be an unwitting pawn, so keeping some distance seems prudent.
It is for that very reason that I feel I did that sword in the cave a great injustice. Did it deserve me to make a snap judgment like that, letting my fear choose for me? Was the anger it showed directed at us or it's situation? If all of those changlings had been looking at me like that I would want them to stop too. Perhaps it deserves a second chance. Or rather a first chance since I didn't even give it one. I never thought I'd find myself asking these questions, especially about a sword that may or may not be sentient. At any rate, these things pose opportunities and potential dangers to the Kovash and as a scout it is my duty to continue observation. Torax even mentioned something about time travellers (something I'm going to pull him aside and ask him about at some point). I will continue to report my findings as I discover them.
Wtih respect,
Scout Commander Asp
Kovash Ja'haz
Extra long one packed with two weeks of stuff. I also wanted to say Shady that you did a great job leading us to the cave without fishhooking us, well done.

today I learned that only being able to cast the limited set of spells we changelings are able to, is by far not enough. Being unable to even cast something simple as hafif is a great hindrance. I should study more on that subject and expand my knowledge. I think with time and patience, I can find a few usefull spells. But me being inapt with any kind of weapon, forces me again to follow the path of violence even here. The wasteland is not forgiving on the helpless...
I also came to realize, that our skahailishk is quite friendly. Completely in contrast to the others I have met. I should try and come to talk to her about that. Their "goddess", the others I have met talked about, does not seem to be of great influence here. On that regard, we also found a cave with petrified degisishk. It also contained a kilisk, that began screaming at us. Screaming! I also felt like it was tugging at my innards and...my soul. I think I have heard of this before. It is called "Enervation". I don't know what causes it, but it is said to block the influence of this "goddess".
To my great surprise, those two zohlishk, I wrote about the last time, survived a direct encounter with the Enclave. I am just as surprised as you will be on reading this, gimarazrasu. I will have to talk to them about this aswell.

And here we go again.

Gee's letter #003 wrote:
Hey Princess, good winds?
I finally got to relax after that mess with the Enclave. They didn't find us and it's better that way.
Good winds sure guide my wings, you know. I met that zonycorn again, only this time in her dream nest, instead of threading over death. We shared a great moment. Isn't that much better than pointing guns at each other? I know I'd take the bliss of lovemaking over a bullet anytime. Over, under, reach-around... what was I talking about again? Anyway, it was great.
Then I went to that cave again. The one I told you before... or did I forget? Still, I took her flying there, and she just loved it. Good winds can reach even the landbound, they just need to open their inner wings.
We got to the sword trapped inside. It seemed so sad last time, but now it wouldn't say a thing. It was actually giving me the creeps because even the wind abandoned it. Or vice-versa? Who knows. It was shy too, it wouldn't say a word to me. Maybe it was alone for too long, or maybe it didn't like griffin. It didn't help the first thing it did was to offer gifts of death. Gifts of clear forest trails and thin bacon slices would help making so many more friends...
It isn't our corporeal shell that defines us after all. If that lovely lady can enjoy flying and I can enjoy her company, a sword can find joy in a better purpose.
XOXO

I experienced something curious today. We changelings can even feed on love, that is not directed towards us. The outburst of love just has to be big enough. I know for certain, that the excess love and excitement during lovemaking is quite suitable for that. maybe we can use this information later.
I also learned that I shouldn't judge other by their outward appearance. That little zohlishk filly is of more physical strength, than I originally thought. She easily defeated me in a competition of said manner.
Also important to note is, that it is going to take quite a lot of convincing to get the skalishk on our side. He is quite stubborn in the way of the "Grand" Pegasus Enclave. At least he stopped insulting us that harshly after Shimmering Skies (the skahailishk) healed him. Maybe this is the foundation of getting him to work with us.
