Jarvis is coming back up the ladder now, so I'd better close

Report Number Four
Same day (Cotterpin says the 13th), late afternoon
Hi, Astinus. I'm a few miles outside of town now,
sitting under a tree, where no one except Cotterpin can find
me, I hope. This is probably my last official report to you,
because there doesn't seem to be much point in continuing
to try to find someone who understands why the gods got so
tired of Istar, when everyone gets so upset about the whole
issue and thinks either that Istar was wonderful or that Istar
was bad but wasn't as bad as some other places around here
that should have gotten hit with their own fiery mountains
first.
My stomach hurts but I'm not hungry, and I feel just
awful, like I'm going to have a good cry in a minute after I
finish writing this all down, even if Ark says boys shouldn't
cry, but I'm a kender and not a human so maybe it's okay if
I feel bad for just a little while.
Everyone hates me, and I hate me, and I hate being a
recorder, and I hate sitting out here on a rock in the
wilderness because I have no one to talk to except for
Cotterpin, the tinker gnome, but he's already gone to sleep
in his steam-powered lawn chair under the oak tree here.
Ark is going to be very disappointed that I got thrown in jail
and made part of the town burn up and started a riot and
everything
