Dear diary,

my thoughts are still on yesterdays talk. The Fool seemed so calm when I was around. So... sane. If I didn't know better, I would say he was slowly falling for me like I was for him...

But that'd be insane... right?
Yes... That'd be preposterous only to think about.
Not like those bloody black eyes and enchanting smile weren't.

I spent my day as usual, without confronting the Jester. Wake up, eat breakfast, practice magic, take a walk near the chapel, eat lunch, write. It's plaguing me how much he has been on my mind, so the more time alone, the better. Besides, I still have the general reason why I'm here to think about. It could be so many things...

Somehow I knew it had something to do with the keep. It always stood tall and proud on my horizon. Urging me- no, challenging me to approach and explore. To see what puzzles lay hidden between the walls. I knew my curiosity would sooner or later bring me to the doors. How? I have absolutely no clue.

Night is falling as I write this and I've felt a wave of unsettling calmth wash over me before I started. Still no sign of the jack anywhere. As much as I try not to think about him, I can't help it. He speaks in secrets...

...and I listen in...
