25th October, year 12o6

Damn, the Sheriff! No, he did not deny the rumour. In fact, he confirmed the rumour. Tis true. He intends to have Isabella as part of a negotiation plan between him and Thornton. But, of course he did not tell me the full details of the plan. He is an ambitious animal, just like I am. But, in his own political mind it is just a game of chess. Everyone around him are his pawns and he is the King.

Instead he had the nerve to tell me me that whatever was planned between him and Thornton was no concern of mine. How dare he! He plans to use my sister a pawn in his little chess game and tells me... ME! That it is no concern of mine.

Of course I am concerned. He is planning to use my sister for his own political agenda. I've already sold my sister once to a life of misery, I am not about to do it again! Vasey can go to Hell!
