I'll introduce myself.

My name is Sprite, and I am a tiefling. I was risen in The House, although I'm sure you haven't heard of it. I am also a paladin, fighting with faith in Ehlonna. I have taken the Oath of the Ancients, from which I have my power.

I bought this book just today. On the cover is the goddess Ioun. I'm not too familiar with Ioun, but she seems a decent enough deity, and I need a book, so I chose this one.

I don't know why I'm writing, but I really feel like writing. There is so much to say.

My friends and allies are Lars the bard, Lodak the fighter, Adriel the sorcerer, and Shreekback the rogue. Shreekback has been gone for some time, working on his own issues back home, and Adriel has left us recently for their own reasons. We still need a name for our group. Gilmore, the merchant, is our sponsor, and he asked us to choose a name, but we couldn't agree. I was thinking about a name based on the time we delved deep into the ancient tomb of Shak-Ulash. Maybe I can write that story at some point.

Another journal I bought was red, and it featured a tree dripping with blood, and a rapier at its base. I know that sword. It's Bloodbriar, which belongs to Lodak's brother. It's a cursed sword. It might be controlling Lodak's brother. The merchant -- a nice tabaxi fellow -- told me that a goliath left it with the merchant, telling the merchant that the goliath wanted to leave his past behind him or something. I'm certain that this journal belonged to Lodak's brother. I'll give it to Lodak when I pass by him.

Should I be writing everything in this book? I feel that it is a bad idea, but I can't help but want to.

We made a deal with an ally of our enemy. Of course it didn't go well.

The quickling Shanty-Shoes, who we caught earlier, has been spying on us for a while. She spies on us for the Soothsayer, who we are supposed to bring to justice. That's part of the deal we made with Klag Jr. We want to meet the Soothsayer, so when we caught Shanty-Shoes, we made a deal: we would perform a prank of our choice on Klag, and then Shanty-Shoes would bring us to the Soothsayer. Shanty-Shoes does not like the Soothsayer, but she is obligated to work for her.

We bought a lot of curry-scented orange paint for our prank. We would dump this paint on Klag.

Shanty-Shoes, who we were on decent terms with by now, offered to be the distraction to bring out Klag from his home, out to the open, where we could dump the paint. We agreed, which was a terrible mistake. Shanty-Shoes dashed in, took an item, and dashed out. Klag ran out to chase the quickling, and we dumped the paint on him. It hurts to write this. This item was important to Klag, and he was very upset. I screwed up really bad, and I ruined his trust in me. The rest of the party is in the same boat. He almost called the guards on us! And honestly, we'd have deserved it.

We told Klag that we'd bring back his item, and so we will. But first, Shanty-Shoes will bring us to the Soothsayer.

I'm writing this in our camp. There are spiders the size of myself around, who say that "she's watching," or something similar, I can't recall. They have thorns on them, green thorns. You wouldn't hear them, I used magic to speak to them. Also, you're a book.
