Journal

• Rukusa Farusa seems to be near the end of his tethers.

• Nearly inchoate with anger, Rukusa Farusa tells you that Godbert the Goldsmith has swooned from the heat of the bath. See if a determined /poke will rouse him.

• Godbert remains insensate despite the potent prod. Do as the physicians do and douse him with a bottle of ice-cold lake water.

• Godbert does not respond. This calls for another dose of ice-cold lake water.

• Godbert stirs ever so slightly. Perhaps another does of ice-cold lake water will do the trick.

• Godbert has regained his foot with surprising alacrity. How efficacious these tricks of physicking are! Report the happy development to Rukusa Farusa.

• Godbert is homebound, a man reborn. Rukusa Farusa ponders over how a man may be a figure both comic and tragic. Godbert has left you a precious ring, a strangely moving memento of the Calamity. Wear it with humility.
