Mignon’s Journal – Entry 13,671
Entry 13,671
I expected to either cease to exist or be in some sort of eternal torment at the time I am writing this, but instead I am here in bed, my dear daughter and cat both curled up beside me, sleeping a peaceful sleep. This is the award for betraying a god. Perhaps I could better call it the reward for bravery. Whatever it is, it feels nice. It feels nice to live the way I want to live for once in my long and mostly pathetic life. I do not know what is yet to come, and it may be terrible, but for now I am happy. For the first time in so long, this old smile isn’t a lie.
Ms. Grimalkin has given me new purpose, and I am ever so thankful. I will serve her happily as long as I exist in this form or the next. Her plot is worrying, for I fear I will not be able to succeed. I fear I will let her down. The world down. If I fail all reality could cease to exist. This is something I can not allow, but I am no hero. I don’t deserve to be a champion. I’m afraid fear may overtake me yet again, but this fear is different. This is fear I will face to save those I have for some reason arbitrarily decided to care about.
Did Ms. Grimalkin offer to cuddle me?
What am I supposed to tell Ms. Ashal? Just “Yo, I betrayed Kuroth also if you become a god I will murder you?” Is her loyalty to her people stronger than her lust for power? I certainly do not know. Maybe it is something I can not risk, however if she was party to my plot it would ensure much smoother sailing. I’m sure I’ll end up just spilling out the truth like the blathering idiot I am. Ms. Ashal is my friend and I hope we don’t become enemies. It is a shame about Ms. Shere, but oh well. I don’t remember if we ever got along anyway. Won’t tell Ms. Ashal about that part.
Come to think of it, how much do I really know about Ms. Ashal? She’s a hard one to read. I wonder if she thinks of me as a tool or a friend. I certainly can not blame her for thinking me a tool, as I think that way about most. Still, she’s the closest thing I have to a best friend currently, though in my heart that title will always belong to Sir Ragna. I hope he’s around somewhere still. I hope he’s still super handsome.
OH MY GODDESS, DID MY GODDESS OFFER TO CUDDLE ME?
Fear me world, for I am Mignon Varrow: Former Guildmaster of the Costa Loca Thieves Guild Chapter, Former Left Hand of Kuroth, Mother, Award Winning Cat Trainer, Current Champion of Death, and Future Twin Goddess of All Existence and Eternity. Most importantly however, I am Mignon Varrow: Goddess Cuddler.
