Lowenstark's Log: 05-24-20XX
With multiple injuries, a dead traitor, and a boat-full of corpses, we have a mission accomplished.
There were a few hitches, and the plan didn't go as we'd expected, but ultimately we won out over evil.
As for KAOS? Considering that I roused one of their soldiers (who was near dead) to consciousness, told him (behind a mask) that I worked for Chi - and that we were KAOS pirates, and stabbed into him a "Sacrificial Knife," meant as a message to the UAC.. well, I think they may have some renewed troubles from the UAC. Oh, did I mention that this knife was the one I found from Pera a month back? With her fingerprints and blood on it? I covered those in a nice sealant, so the sea wouldn't drink them up. This was after I etched runes into the blade.
We sank the ship, got our gear, and made our getaway... but we are not whole. We have been injured, beaten, and nearly killed. The advancements to the freedom of Midian will be worth it however...
and my own little secret gift, the one to Elise and Eamon... it grows nearer to completion for this little project.
Practicing the half log cabin techniques and mixing up the Little Apples with stuff from the stash...

There were these crazy athletic events. This log is 17 feet long and weighs around 140 pounds. All you do is pick it up, run with it for a little while, then loft it into the air so that it flips and lands on the ground in front of you. Imagine you are the center of the clock. The closer the log lands to 12:00, the more likely you will win! (Oh yeah, and this guy is a chiropractor by day... He says this event is not a good idea from your spine's point of view!)
