Mm, well, the decision's official.

Gareth, bless his very soul, has offered me no assistance in seeking a place for myself. I'm hardly surprised, to be honest. He never has a penny or a thought to spare for anyone who isn't busy kissing the boots on his feet, and I've never particularly cared to do so. I suppose he's all too happy to be rid of me, though I'm sure he's unhappy about having to appoint another Atsirian in my place, the foolish little man.

Jaezera, though, oh, she's beside herself. With jealousy, mostly, as I think she would like to stay here herself but she tells me she can't until she's made some more coin. I suppose I'm quite lucky that Cleraine was the longest I said I would stay with him, so I've still been paid in full. I think the woman truly just wishes to stay here and join the church, and I'm sure she'll manage someday, but I haven't any idea when. She's been quite helpful, actually, when Gareth isn't keeping her too busy out of spite.

There's a little place I'm looking into in one of the poorer districts of the city, since it's all I can afford, but Jaezera tells me I'm being cheated, so I suppose I'm to try and find someplace else with her, this weekend. She wants to go to a sermon together and then have a look around the city. I suppose it's better than settling for the first thing I can find.

Mm, I'm still anxious, though, I must admit. It will be ... difficult, for me to find work, when I'm still working on my Atsirian. At least I can understand it when it's spoken to me, now, and I can manage to read most of it. It's the speaking and writing myself that I simply can't grasp. Maybe it'll improve with time.
