[Written]
[Written in a very fluid and well-practiced script. He'd worked what he was going to write and how to write it during the last two days, hoping to present himself in a favorable manner while also explaining why he had waited so long. From what he could tell, the next round of expected arrivals would be coming soon and him claiming to have only now shown up would be suspicious. The truth of the matter was much easier to go with, even if it needed some explanation.]
To those looking to recruit a sailor,
It seems all the activity and excitement of the last few weeks has died down and those who went to battle are tending to their wounds. Welcome news though this is, I do profess to be more concerned about my own circumstances. I arrived just as the lady, the witch, attempted to sway the minds of those new to this land. I remained quiet and did not seek out the ships and crews others have made offers of and continued to do so until now. In this time I have been studying the people and what is know of this world as best I may.
I confess I thought it all to be some elaborate lie and that I was being manipulated perhaps by the powers of some demon of the Fade. Or a particularly powerful and malevolent malificarum. For those of you not of my world, the world of Thedas, the Fade is the realm of dreams from which all magic comes. Malificarum are blood mages, those who use blood to power their magic instead of, or in concert with, the mana within them.
As the rest of you, I have come to accept that this is not a trick. We are really here. This does not make dealing with the demands of life in this world any easier, of course. With all that said, would like to inquire about joining a ship now that those who are established have a chance at a break from the fighting. I am a mage of some skill and a veteran of many battles, though I have little knowledge of how to sail.
My hound and I have been making camp in the forests outside the town on Isla Empieza and will be planning to return in the next several days to meet with interested parties.
Thank you for your consideration.
-Sydni Surana, Warden-Commander of Ferelden

Re: VOICE
Serrah. A formal title of respect to one's equal or superior. You would be the third person I have defined that for. I find it amusing something so simple would need to be explained... though I expect the novelty will wear off quickly...
You want me to keep your nobility a secret? Why? Are you masquerading as a peasant?
VOICE [Private]
[Having a new title was always awesome for Tamaki. Host club king, club president, Daddy, Captain, and now Serrah.]
I do that often, but not since I've arrived here.
[Private]
I'd love to meet your hound. And well, if you're on Isla Empieza on the 4th of February, 7 days from now... there will be a party in our ship. If you'd like to attend of course.
VOICE [Private]
[Sydni's voice trailed off as the words 'private to Sydni Surana' appeared on the page before the party invite was spoken. He had not been aware the journals had that kind capability. Were the words truly private, though? Or was it an assumption and everyone could still see it.]
That sounds like a fine plan. What is the name of your ship and what is your name as well, Serrah?
VOICE [Private]
Alright then~! My ship's name is the Antoinette. Mind you, I didn't name it after my dog. It just so happened that the previous captain, named it such.
VOICE [Private]
[He's not going to comment on the coincidence.]
VOICE [Private]
So I would like to invite you on my daughter's birthday~! You and Cuddles~!!!
VOICE [Private]
[Had they been in person, he would have offered a small bow.]
