The Diary of Fabala Martinix
[Ed. Note: The diary has been abridged to include only relevant entries]
May 1st, AC 142
The Assez family are the worst sort of Capitalist! They claim to love their workers, but do they set them free? Do they treat them as equals? No! I've tried to explain how the Assez's are getting rich on their surplus labor, but the peasants don't care as long as they are being fed. Some more radical action needs to be done!
January 7th, AC 144
I received a message from someone who calls himself "a friend". Apparently he's been working on a plan to free this land from the nobles and hand the means of production over to the workers and serfs, and I am key to this plan! I need to lay the groundwork, and he will send his servant here when the time is right. The nobles will fall!
September 14th, AC 148
My son was born today. We named him Remi to remind us that the oars of justice are always pulling us closer to a day when all are equal. The world Remi inherits may be a chaotic one, but it will lead to a brighter dawn.
March 15th, AC 158
At long last, the Great Master has sent his servant to us, the slime-that-walks-like-a-man. He calls himself Equanimious Slurp, and is planning on setting up a base in the Rhenish Fens north of here. His plan is odd -- he wants to use small slimes to steal things from townspeople, believing that this will increase mutual suspicion. He has a medallion that greatly increases his summoning ability, which he will use to increase his forces.
I don't see how this will help us liquidate the Assez's, much less the rest of the noble caste, but my orders from the Great Master are very clear that I am to support Slurp. I will have to try to convince him that if we can eliminate the Assez family, we will be well placed to take over and use the resources of this province to move against nobles in other areas.
September 12th, AC 161
Word has come from the Grand Master -- we must move against the Assez's soon. The medallion the disgusting creature Slurp had been using to summon slimes has to be sent back, to be used in a different plot the Great Master has in mind. I am nervous about my son Remi and his friends -- they are clearly inexperienced and no great threat, but even the weakest adventurers can find a way to foil the march of destiny.
September 23rd, AC 161
Oh joy! The local druids have taken exception to the Assez family's despoliation of the natural environment in the name of capital. Strange bedfellows, but it's distracted Remi and his bunch. Slurp is ready to move once I give him the signal.
October 15th, AC 161
That dwarf is so obnoxious, but at least they are headed south -- into Dôle, apparently. Once they are gone, it will be time to take over the manor and make sure that the Assez's do not live to lord it over the rest of us any longer! Slurp says he used the medallion before he sent it back to the Great Master to bring a powerful outsider here to help us take over the manor.
November 11th, AC 161
The day is here. We've barricaded ourselves in our room as Slurp and his slimes devastate the estate. They will take the workers downstairs and sacrifice them to create a powerful ally. Unfortunately, but necessary for the aid of workers everywhere! Once the manor is secure, we will come out and lead the slime army in glorious revolution! But wait, what is that noise at the door?
