Time to think, Rekka's thoughts

With the flying Brick, I mean Fortress, I've been allowed more time to think. It's strange just a few short months ago I was traveling along with a band of thieves, murders and etc. You know a normal traveling band of misfits. And now, here I am and nothing really changed that much. Sure the only real thief is me, but they got the whole murdering thing down.
I wonder what a bard would say about this group. A divine mission, a corrupt prince and his loyal duke, a warring nation, Deities, and devils, it almost has all the trademarks of an epic story. The only thing stopping it is what lies ahead. Or is it, what lies behind?
My thoughts kept wondering back to the dragons and their attack on the werewolf duke Lupik. Would Lupik be expecting this? Would the dragons win? I could see, will imagine, a city being attacked by dragons. Then it hit me again. Though we are not there, we have sent another devastating destruction upon a City. Sure Lupik and his follows needed to be stopped, but what of the people? Every city has them, those Innocent, hardworking people. You know, the Suckers and Targets.  And before anyone jumps to anything, I have standards; I don’t take from the poor, just the grandstander rich. Back to the point: which was what now?
Ah yes, Devastating destruction. It’s seems to follow us everywhere. I am starting to think that there is some Deity out there making sure things go that way. It was something that the Blacksmith said, that those crystal eyes I had before allowed some evil deity watch the group through my eyes. The only trouble is that he didn’t tell me which deity it could be. In Sardic there were tons of temples dedicated to different Deities; good and evil.
Gideon, that cleric, has a (a good?) Deity that seems to be doing his own thing. Destroying evil Temples, (Well having us destroy it, along with part of the town), along with others things that I haven’t been given the full story on but that’s normal. He seems to have a mission as well, though he seems just as much in the dark about his as I am in mine.
Those Deities are eccentric beings, here I’m charged with keeping them safe, and they won’t give me a good hint as to what I’m really supposed to be doing.  Oh sure, I know what I should do, still alive and finish the quest. But what is the real quest? I can’t help feel that there is more going on here. Like with Ajara, She claims to be from a place, which seems to have never been settled by humanoids. If it did it must have been thousands of years before now. Whatever happened, it is now a hot bed of magical creatures that are so magical and old that they don’t even come up as magic anymore.
I really doubt I’ll find any answers here in the magical land. But it will help Ajara come to better terms that her past. Not that it really matters to me, I just rather not been at Lupiks. Whoever is pulling strings around us, wanted the group to go to Lupiks and into the underground catacombs. It’s not that I don’t trust these people, but I rather not walk into a trap if I can help it. Well not again anyway.  And their plans seem lacking, as if they think things would just work out because…well I don’t know why. It hasn’t really been that way with our group.
Issac wants someone to take over for him, and since I’ve been watching him fly and know what each button does, I’ll do it.
