Treatise no. 1

The Grasslands have proven themselves to be quite a fascinating location. I have never seen land quite so flat before, reaching out as far as the eye can see. The library is quite extensive, and it appears that I have much to read during my time here. I have only barely scratched the surface of the past two hundred years with the three days I spent cooped up reading. It is hard to absorb much of the information, though; I must go through everything again once I get a firm grasp on all these happenings.

I do not know what to make of being thrust through time, but I'm finding it very... unsettling... that the first person I would meet would be a Silverberg. Is this fate? ... if there ever were such a thing.

Sir Caesar seems to be a true Silverberg, quite messy and lax with his belongings. Lady Elenor, although great, always left things scattered about her hermitage too, mostly bottles and what bare belongings she deigned to keep from the Empire. Perhaps great minds are accustomed to clutter, as they focus on more pressing matters. I do not know what that makes me, then. A failed talent, perhaps. That is what it seems all these pages are proving, my name unmentioned in every volume I stumble upon. Did I get pulled through time, unable to conclude my studies within the Scarlet Moon Empire, or did I reach the Scarlet Moon Empire and make no impact at all? I will have to do further research, perhaps reading up on anything I can find of the Grishend. Did they go down in history as losing a crew member mysteriously?

... I am glad that pirate is here now, at least, although I would have preferred his calmer half. Oddly enough, his presence is putting my mind at ease.

I will continue to tend to Sir Caesar's things, however I do not trust him completely. The fact that he is a Silverberg already gives cause for raised hackles. I should do well to not become enamoured with his family name. It has, after all, been almost two hundred years. How silly of me.
