My Master and I traveled with the Ar caravan to the Sardar Fair this season. Apparently my Master had never been and he wished to be a part of the merriment it had to offer. Today.. when we arrived we set up our camp within the camp and went exploring. I was exhausted already.. and when we came to the Sparring tent to watch some fights we ran into my former Mistress and her new companion. He is one dashingly handsome fellow.. I can see why my Mistress might deny her claim to Ar to become the elusive Ubara of Cos. Apparently it was the night that their contract for companionship was to be renewed and they asked my Master and I if we would like to witness the occasion. My Master saw how badly I was flagging off and sent me back here to the tents. When I arrived.. I could not sleep to save my life. Is it bad that I have already in this short time become so accustomed to sharing his sleeping couch and his furs that I can not get comfortable or even entertain the notion of sleep without his body securely pressed to the back of my own? That is why I am here now writing here in this book. I can not sleep.. and let me tell you I am exhausted beyond measure.. but my head keeps rolling all kinds of strange thoughts and ideas as to why he is not yet back around.. and its got me too amped to sleep.

He came back. He smelled of spicy perfume and wine and paga.. I think he may of visited one of the paga tents.. I was worried for his safety and all this time he was off fraternizing with common whores the like. It is not my place as a slave to remind him of what he has so readily already in his tent at home.. but I was tempted. We slept.. or at least I did.. fitfully with my anger dwelling in my chest.. but eventually I slipped from his embrace and taking a couple coins from his pouch I went in search of things I will need for the surprise when we return to Ar. I hope this will wash away any doubts for the both of us how the other may feel...
