* Personal Log: December 10, xxx4 *

I got to see Brem and speak with him. Hear from him directly about this choice he made to return to the Imperial guild he once left. I love him deeply in my being and understand somewhat his choice, though not completely. It does not chnage the man he is, or the experinces we had and will have. I wanted to talk more. I wanted to hold him. But my comm rang and Maxell was asking for me to help him. If I got too close to brem now, I would not have a clear head to deal with Maxell. And his situation is of a delicate nature. Not to mention, I must be cautious about being tempted by honey to divulge what I have learned from the old ruins. I have seen how intrigues in the Senate worked. Internal politics and all.

I went to visit Maxell in Hendola. He was in quite a state. I think my words and advice helped him. I had some of my suspicions confirmed. He is a resiliant man once he understand what is going on. I wish him the best of luck in this dangerous challenge. I pray he succeeds, if not for the sake of others, for his own sake. Deomo seems to be inadvertently or purposefully (i believe the latter) undoing all Maxell's efforts. Let us hope Deomo is busy tonight. I will see what I can do to ensure that.
