My first entry

Hello, my name is Takeru Yoshio. I’m originally from Amatsu, but now living in Al de Baran. Why I’m saying all this? Because Sir Ilnan said that its tradition to start a diary with an introduction or so.

Sir Ilnan is a young bard, who lives in Al de Baran in the house of Sir Romuel. He was the one who gave me this nice diary book. He said that I shall write in all my thoughts and especially when something bothers me. So I’ll start now.

I was working as kinda butler for the mayor of Payon. But then he fired me and chased me away with no real reason. When I’ve been in Prontera to look for a new job, I met Sir Romuel. He was very nice and offered me to join him on his journey back to Al de Baran. I don’t know why I followed him, but I think it has something to do with his strong charisma.
He doesn’t need any words, since his gazes are telling more than a thousand words could do. I never met someone like him! I think that everyone would follow Sir Romuel. No matter what!

Since then I’m his butler now… even he didn’t say anything about it. But he accepts me in his house. So I’d say that I am his butler now. And I’m really glad about it!

We went to a big chateau in Al de Baran and Sir Romuel said that its his house where he lives with his family. And indeed! There are many people living! Some are nicer and some are a little… unpleasant.
For example Sir Ilnan and Miss Aryan. Both are entertainer in the house and very nice! First I was a bit scared by Miss Aryan because she hugged me so much. And then she even wanted to make little ribbons into my hair! That was a little too much for me. But then we went to prepare the dinner for all members in the house and it was fun to work in such a great kitchen!
Then I met Sir Ilnan. As I said already, he is a bard and the one who gave me this diary. I’m very grateful for this great gift. Sir Ilnan is a very talented young Bard and he always tries to make me play my lute in public. But as much as I appreciate his work, I’m way too nervously and afraid to make a mistake.

At dinner I met another member of the family in the chateau. Sir Genvrier, a Hunter I think. He is very scary! He never smiles or laughs or anything like that and is always grumpy.
When we were eating dinner, I messed his meal and clothes by an accident. He was so mad that he took out his dagger and told me that he’d kill me if I’d apologize once more. But I had to apologize, hadn’t I?
I was so badly scared about him that I ran away to hide somewhere, while the others seemed to hold Sir Genvrier to calm him down. I was very headless and ran into another member of the house. His name is Sir Shayde. He and Sir Romuel went after me to calm me down as well. And when they found me in my hiding place, Sir Shayde called me a “kitten”. I seem to have many names here. Sir Romuel always calls me “Snow White”. I don’t even know why. But I think that Sir Romuel has a good reason to do so. He is very wise and I wouldn’t dare to doubt any of his decisions.

At all the evening I was missing one person. A young Sir, a bit older than me with a very gentle and friendly smile. His name is Lune. He travelled with Sir Romuel and me to Al de Baran, but left us when we arrived there. I really thought that he’d be a member of this chateau as well. Maybe I’ll see him again. He is so funny and cheerful! Really adorable!

Later then, at the same evening we got a visitor. A man who was injured. We took care of him and later his son came to pick him up. But they had a bad argue all out of sudden and Sir Romuel tried his best to solve it. He really has been successfully and both went home in… peace I think.
Sir Romuel is such a good negotiator. Amazing, ne?

We all went to bed after that, because the day was pretty long and full of things that happened. But no one told me where to sleep. So I chose to sleep on the couch in the big hall where we all were sitting and chatting or doing other things. I hope they didn’t mind me sleeping on the expensive couch as normal butler.

At the next morning I woke up a bit in stress, because young Sir Ilnan was scaring me out of “bed”. After that we went to buy some ingredients for the next dinner and I had a lot of fun there!
On the way back home we met the young Sir who had a bad argue with his father last night. He was with a young and very beautiful Priestess. She looked like an angel! And her name is Mariamelle… if I remember it correctly. She is very kind and helping. When I was bowing to be politely, I lost some of the ingredients, we just bought before. How clumsy of me! But Lady Mariamelle didn’t care at all and immediately started to help me picking all things up again. How embarrassing! Sir Romuel saw it, young Sir Ilnan and Lady Mariamelle saw the “accident” as well! I hope they aren’t mad on me because I’m so clumsy.

When we were home, Sir Ilnan and me practiced to play our instruments for a bit. It was fun when we were playing a duet. I hope that we can do that soon again! But now I have to go to prepare the dinner before I’m late. I’ll write more later. Bye!
