'He felt in his heart cruelty and cowardice, the things which made him brave and kind.'
Excerpts from a scuffed and leatherbound journal.
[break][break]YRHM 22[break]
January,
Rosette died this morning. [break]
Obi woke me up, butting his little horns into my hip where I’d fallen asleep in the hay. The chill got to her, poor old thing. I had hoped the infusion of chople and wild radish would reduce the fever, but to no avail. She never really recovered from her last kidding. Perhaps if I had been able to find nightshade, I would have been able to save her.
Oberon is the only one I have left, I don’t resent him for it - though it’s a pity he was not born female, as I could use the milk. I’ll have to supplement his milk with some from Edith’s miltank, though I don’t relish the six mile walk- maybe she’ll lend me Daisy for a few weeks until Obi gets on his feet.
[break]It’s just us now Obi, we’ll stick together, for better or worse.
[break]May,
[break]The warmer weather agrees with us both. Oberon has recovered well and has started putting out his first coat. He’s very proud of the little shoots but he does have a habit of rolling in the grass and rubbing them all off - I’m sure it itches.
[break]It’s papa’s anniversary today. We buried Rosette next to him. Oberon likes to sleep under their tree in the afternoon. I’ll see about setting up a more permanent bed for him.[break][break]
YRHM 24[break]
November, [break]
Obi is getting more restless lately. He’s taken to wandering further afield than I would like. His horns are fully grown, I shouldn’t worry so. But winter always brings out my worst fears. Winter took papa and then Obi’s mother, I don’t like him to be so far away.
[break]But it’s time I faced those fears. Oberon is a buck now, he’ll want to meet other pokemon, maybe he can find someone to join our little family. I wouldn’t say no to a fire-type in this weather, but I’m unsure how well Oberon would get along with his natural opposite.
[break]Truly it would be best if he could find others of his kind, but I don’t think Skiddo or Gogoat are common in this forest. Papa brought Rosette and Finnius from his old farm. The best I might hope for is a Deerling.
[break][break]December
[break]Oh most unlooked-for happiness! The world does move mysteriously at times. I had resolved to go out with Oberon this evening, so that he could explore in safety and reassurance that I was nearby and to gather winter berries for supper. No sooner had I happened upon a bush of juniper berries than Obi came prancing back over the snow. I couldn’t follow him fast enough so he bade me jump astride his back and dashed off through the woods. It was a wild ride and I don’t think I will ever wish to travel any other way.
[break]His purpose was to lead me to a little hollow in an old tree, where a small creature was huddled up for warmth. I’ve no notion as to how it came to be there, as it’s not a species at all native to this area. Eevee make for popular pets among the nobility, perhaps she was abandoned? Or escaped?
[break]In any event, she was very cold, poor thing. We soon had her inside and fed on some of my wild honey stock. She’s sleeping well now, curled up by the fire with Obi - who insisted on staying at her side. I think we have a new addition to the little family.

February
After the incident this morning, I have decided to name our new addition Thistle.
No doubt, dear reader, you can fill in the blanks yourself.

July,[break][break]
So it is war. [break]
I must admit I find myself rather on the side of His Royal Highness Prince Siegfried. His story seems more than plausible, though I hear he has fled the palace. The gods know where he is now.[break]
This forest has become unbearably quiet. I think it’s high time I took a walk...[break][break]

Biography:
[break]Laurel is around 5’9” and of a fairly solid build, with broad shoulders and a trim waist which belies the strength she has in her arms. Her hair is a dark brown, her eyes are darker still and her skin is a very light olive tone. She tans well in the summer and turns very pale in the winter time. She is an accomplished archer and tracker, as she learned to hunt for her food from an early age. Her skills lie in herbalism as well as hunting and scavenging, along with pokemon care and medical skills.
[break]Laurel keeps a journal to record her discoveries in pokemon care and herbal remedies, and keeps a monthly log of events in her life. She is not particularly skilled at growing plants from scratch, but she’s learning. Her drawings are crude, but pay enough attention to salient details that a reader could easily identify plants from her notes.
[break]She carves wood and horn as a pastime, having made both her bow and her war horn, which she carved from a Tauros horn. She can sew, though only for stitching up tears in fabric and she’s no seamstress. Her stitching is neat and strong, but hardly invisible.
[break]Cooking isn’t something she is particularly good at, as she puts more thought into the benefits of different ingredients than the flavour, which can result in some truly abhorrent stews and broths which are nevertheless extremely healthy.
[break]Laurel was raised in Rosemary Forest by her father after he was banished, or on the run, from the royal soldiers. He claimed it was due to his hunting in forbidden areas but she has since learned that the king was rather lenient toward hunting for survival no matter the season, and imagines something else must have happened. But she never asked. Her father was a quiet sort, with rigid discipline and tough expectations on his young daughter. In the evenings they liked to read together and there was nothing Laurel liked better than a new book from the market.
[break]One winter, her aging father slipped on the ice and broke his leg very badly. Laurel set the bone and used all her skill to help, but it never quite healed and he died in the following spring. As a result Laurel doesn’t care for the winter months.
[break]Laurel wears dresses in most seasons, usually in blue and red wool and linen. She would like to learn to spin and sew if she ever has the time, but her new occupation in the Prince’s army finds her with her hands full scouting ahead and treating wounded soldiers.
