Off we go exploring the wide oceans,  where we land no one knows,
I am heading west and south,  is there land or more water.
Only time will tell?    Hopefully I have enough pitch?

I, Oleg the Loudmouth, do hereby declare that I hold no grudges from
any previous events -- in fact, I'd love to be an ally of the guy who
sent me to Hades at the end of G2. Ally with the smart ones, I always
say.

Journal entry
Blossom bloom, month 3, in the year 1

As we prepare to sail away from what I feel will soon be
troubled lands, I can only wonder how long we will have
to prepare, before war finds us also.

I have noted that there are those making claims they have no
power to uphold. So when they find others on "their" lands,
what other response can they take if they choose not to
look the fools they are?

character described by ethical philosophers. Public success and
private morality are entirely separate. The question is not what
makes a good human being, but what makes a good prince. In order
to achieve success, a ruler must know precisely when and how to
do what no good person would ever do.
