Entry One

Dear Diary

I can't believe that Xena has a son. I really gave her the riot act but I realize now that she did the only thing she could do. She gave him to Calypus although it broke her heart and he couldn't love Solan more if he were his own father.

That had to be so hard to do to give up a child. I'm just glad that Xena got to spend some time with her son. He's a lot like her and best of all he no longer hates her. That must ease the pain somewhat but she didn't tell him that she's his mother.

She's my friend so I'll support her decision even if I don't agree with it. Well that creepy Dagnon has been taken care of. The centaurs made the right choice because the Exxion Stone didn't exactly improve on Dagnon's personality and looks.

Entry Two

Dear Diary

This has been a fairly uneventful day. Xena saved a boy at the Fates Temple. Her experience will make a great scroll since I don't remember anything that happened. She promised to tell me everything when she gets back with our dinner. I've even come up with a name. Remember Nothing. I find it fitting since I can't remember although she does. Here she comes now. I need to take out some parchment so I can take notes.

Entry Three

Dear Diary

I met a cute guy and a fellow bard but he failed to mention his fiancee. I felt like such an idiot of course he has someone. Why shouldn't he have someone? He's handsome and sweet and writes such beautiful verse. Maybe I'll try to write poetry.

They are stories of a sort only in a shorter form. I'll see if I get any inspiration which I'm sure I will. Maybe I'll just stick with stories but I won't rule out the possibility. I do enjoy Sappho's work so maybe I could give it a try when the mood strikes me.

Entry Four

Dear Diary

I was a Bacchae and I turned Xena into one which was the only way she could kill Bacchus so all the missing girls and us were returned to normal. I think it happened when that song was playing. It was so hypnotic and it like lured me outside. I got so lost in that music.

Now that was a great song. I wonder what it's called. Maybe I'll get the words so I can include them in the scroll when I tell this latest adventure. It was strange to see a talking head but now Orpheus is with his love so it was a happy ending. They are the best kind.

Entry Five

Dear Diary

What was such a happy day turned into my worst nightmare. I married Perdicus and I was the happiest I'd ever been. We were out just basking in each other's love till she came along and destroyed everything. Callisto ruined everything including me when she killed Perdicus.

Xena wasn't able to save him. Oh if only he'd had his sword so he would have had a fighting chance. I got a taste of bloodlust and forced Xena to give me a lesson on using a sword.

I was so close and had the sword in my hand but I couldn't do it because I couldn't even kill her. I nearly got burned at the stake but Xena got us out and now Callisto's dead. I will never love again and I'm so glad that she's dead. The pain is too great when you lose someone you love.

Entry Six

Dear Diary

Well this has been quite interesting. There is another lookalike and her name is Meg. So now there are two women that look like Xena. Now Meg has the chance to turn her life around since the King hired her on as his cook. Thank the Gods that the King will be fine.

Diana's baby is so cute not to mention brave with all that bouncing around and flying across the room. That was quick thinking on Diana's part to catch her with the curtains. So Joxer finally met a girl that likes him. Well there's someone out there for everyone so they say.

Entry Seven

Dear Diary

How disturbing it is to have my best friend in the body of my worst enemy. I nearly killed my best friend. Thank the Gods that Xena asked about my dreams.

This is so strange but I'll deal with it since Xena is my best friend after all and I'm not going to abandon her. There has to be a way to change her back to her body. She could dye her hair since that may help at least a little bit.

Entry Eight

Dear Diary

Now that was such a strange experience. I got a taste of utter rage and violence. It was surging through me like a drug. I went a little crazy but for the most part I kept myself together. I never did get my fishcakes. Joxer totally lost it when he went after that fly with his sword.

Reciting that poem really helped but I don't think I want to hear it again anytime soon. Ares got his Godhood back and put Xena back in her body. Now that is such a relief since it was hard to look at Xena and see Callisto staring back at me. I'm not sure if I could have gotten used to that but maybe a hair change would have helped. So he actually kept his word which must have been a first for Ares.

Entry Nine

Dear Diary

All in all this has been a pretty good Winter Solstice. It was wonderful how we were able to save the orphanage and reunite the King with his wife. He is a changed man and we didn't have to do much in the way of punching faces.

Sinticles is such a great toy maker. Now he can make toys for the kids without cowering and hiding. It was so sweet of Xena to give me that wooden lamb. It's just like the one I had when I was little. Maybe one day I'll give it to my child if I ever have one. Well I'm gonna turn in.

Entry Ten

Dear Diary

What a strange dream I had. It was set way in the future, centuries in fact. When I woke up I grabbed my quill and wrote all that I could remember so I could turn it into a scroll. That was such a vivid dream. It was about my scrolls and a woman that was related to me was looking for them.

It was so strange but kind of cool since I had my very own whip or she did. I wonder if it could have been a glimpse into the future. Xena and Joxer were there too but not as themselves. Ares was locked in a tomb and as usual after Xena who did end up in the lookalike's body.

It ended with a bang as we escaped since I blew up the tomb. It was so strange but me and Xena ended up together again as new people which came as no surprise. We have this unexplainable connection. Maybe we were together in a past life and this dream shows that we'll share future ones too.

Entry Eleven

Dear Diary

Whew that was interesting. A man is Miss Known World. Why not he looked great in all the outfits. Such a tiny waist the lucky guy. Funny that I'm jealous of a guy's figure. Well I guess if you got it flaunt it. Xena was right so I'll use a tasteful name for my latest scroll. I didn't think that I would get so into the beauty pageant since they are just a man's way of treating us like meat.

I so wanted Xena to win and she did but she stepped aside as did the other girls. The best part is that I was able to have clams. I was able to stuff some into one of the saddle bags. I just love clams and I smell dinner so I'm done now.

Entry Twelve

Dear Diary

I really haven't had much time for writing lately. When Xena got hurt I was so focused on getting her to that healer. I barely noticed my own wound. That was such a rough trip and to have her die on me ripped me up inside. I had no idea how to go on without her. I met up with the Amazons and was made Queen.

I was so sorry to hear that Queen Melosa was dead. It was really good to see Ephiny. Imagine my shock when Autolycus turned up. At first I thought he was trying to steal Xena's body but Thank the Gods that wasn't the case.

Xena's soul was in his body. That was such a close call with the ambrosia. But she was revived and she's back. I also got a taste of what it's like to be her and know that the world needs people like her.

Entry Thirteen

That was so hard to put up with Callisto but we needed an immortal and in the end it worked out perfectly. That was so scary to be hunted by Valasca who didn't die from the fall after all and got the ambrosia.

Now the two of them are stuck in that lava pit and won't be heard from again. I think I saw something in Callisto. I think somewhere deep within her she's sorry for the things she's done. It's the only way I can truly go on by forgiving her.

Entry Fourteen

Dear Diary

What a day this has been. I don't think I'll be eating eel anytime soon. Where did Xena get that idea about putting parchment up in the air? That was so strange but it worked in the end. It sounded totally insane but I should have known that it would work. I tried out a war cry and I think I'll work on it. Both villages have been saved and a new friend was made.

It was bumpy when Hower fell for Xena. But Minya warmed up to Xena when she gave some advice to her. The giant has been toasted so a happy ending was had and a debt to an old friend has been paid. Well I'm going to look at the stars a bit before I got to bed. I just love looking at them and all their shapes.

Entry Fifteen

Dear Diary

I can't believe that Xena just let me hit her like that. Her instincts are too quick to allow that to happen unless she wanted it. Well I got to be a hero this time around or really on overachieving sidekick. That was so strange to see Joxer turn into a sexy warrior not to mention the kiss he planted on me.

I need to boil my lips since it was Joxer. It's Joxer for Gaia's sake. I met Cupid and Aphrodite which was such a thrill. He's quite handsome but I don't understand why the Goddess of Love would do such a thing. Thank the Gods that Joxer wasn't killed. Xena's pep talk perked him up but the delusions remained and he started singing that silly tune. It's going to get stuck in my head.

Entry Sixteen

Dear Diary

I knew that Meleager was innocent. My faith in him drew a rift between me and Xena. I had him on this pedestal and I refused to think anything against him. We worked things out so no permanent damage was done. Even the best of friends are going to argue at times. Now that I think about it, it really did look like he could have done it since he was drunk and couldn't remember what happened.

I'm just glad that everything turned out so well. I was so horrified when I thought Meleager had been hanged. That corrupt judge is now out of business. I guess I shouldn't have turned a blind eye to different points of view. Xena figured out what happened and saved him. I should have trusted in the knowledge that she would do the right thing. You have to look at all the facts and not rule anything out even if it's unpleasant. So once again I learned an important lesson.

Entry Seventeen

Dear Diary

What an ordeal I went through. I not only got kidnapped I got criticized too. My self esteem took such a blow. It wasn't a dream come true to be forced to marry a poor dead king. I nearly joined him when I was almost alive. Thank the Gods that Xena got me out in time but that's what she does after all. Her eyes were fixed so she can see again. It just shows how much she loves me with her risking the loss of her eyesight for me.

She changed the guy that took me so my opinion of him has changed. I can't even do a curtsy right and those shoes were impossible to walk in. Hmm I have dishwasher hands and I look like a scrubwoman which is what every girl wants to hear. Maybe I can get something for my hands so they look nicer. Mud is supposed to be good for the skin but it's so messy. Maybe I'll look in the next village that has an Apothecary.

Entry Eighteen

Dear Diary

Well my first time on a boat didn't go quite as I planned. I got a major case of seasickness and that was before the water got rough. We met this handsome man named Ulysses. It was tough getting him to Ithaca with the Siren's song. He knocked me across the room so for a brief time I wasn't feeling so sick.

Xena sang him away from the Siren's song and broke the hold on him. When we made it to dry land I kissed the ground not caring that sand was going into my mouth. I was just thrilled to be on land and not bobbing up and down. I saw that things were heating up between Xena and Ulysses and she was so sad when she found out that his wife wasn't dead after all. So she put on a brave front and pushed him away even though it was killing her.

So we left him with his wife so they could recapture their love. Poor Xena but she did the only thing she could do. How hard that must have been since I know she was falling in love. I'll be ok if I avoid boats for a while.

Entry Nineteen

Dear Diary

I guess I got a peek at the Xena of the old days. It really scared me but I know why she did it. We were up against the Horde these really scary people. I was ok in the canoe since we were fleeing for our lives at the time so I didn't have time to get sick or even think about it. Xena told me about her first encounter with the Horde and it was pretty gruesome. I know that she did it to protect us but it frightened me.

 I guess I knocked some sense into her and she came back. Since she was ready to die with a sword in her hand I decided to do things in my own way. I went outside the gates and gave water to the wounded men. It ended the battle and a little was learned about the Horde.

I had no idea that was going to happen. That big man looming behind me could have chopped off my head. Their men came and picked up the wounded. Some progress was made and it was thanks to a simple act that I did.

Entry Twenty

Dear Diary

That ship I was on crashed so I was pulled from the wreckage onto Cecrops' ship. A cursed ship and just my luck I wasn't able to leave it unless I wanted to die a horrible death. Xena made her way on board and showed me a way to stop seasickness. I just jab at my wrist. The bad part was my tastebuds going numb. I ended up snacking on tons of raw squid.

The curse was lifted when he found out how to break it. We even saw Poseidon which was quite a sight. He is all water and so very tall I'm not sure how high since he was up there looming down on us with his trident. I'm glad to get rid of Altrax. Stalking a girl isn't tops on the list for what she looks for in a man.

Entry Twenty-one

Dear Diary

What a day this has been. Me in love with Joxer! How utterly ridiculous. I'm just glad the spell was broken. Maybe Xena does have a point about this love stuff being a pain. Well I think that it's worth the pain because the good outweighs the bad. I wonder if Draco will change under that spell which Xena didn't have Cupid remove. Of all things to have baby Bliss flying around shooting arrows everywhere.

 I even saw a man kissing a cow. No one should be that close to a cow or any animal for that matter. Well the Hestian Virgins are all safe and still pure. They are quite amazing since I'm sure that I wouldn't have it in me to follow that way of life. Not to mention that bell of course.
