Relationship Note on Rowenova

I was bested in my own game by my beloved protege. I am quite impressed with her and her development since my tutoring. I can't wait to see just how much more she blossoms and flourishes under my guidance and with my aide.

Relationship Note on Aiden

It's a bit late, but I wanted to write my thanks for Duke Aiden and his Masquerade. It's so easy to see how much that man cares! Thank you, and everyone else that helped.

Made a massive breakthrough today. The patient exhibited much relief at the tincture of aspic oil. This tincture hopefully will reduce the fever and the discoloration of the skin. Aspic Oil is also good at reducing bruises and balancing the phlegm humors. Anise Oil, a diffusion will reduce fluid retention that is plaguing the soft tissues of the patients. Finally, the compresses of Self-Heal will take care of the open sores, the itching and pain. So far it has given relief. Even if it is minor ... it is something. Though I do think this is a big step in the right direction.

Relationship Note on Eleyna

Let this be entered into the record:

I, Lady Vanora Grimhall, along with their father Valdemar Grimhall declare:

Lord Arkyn Grimhall will have for his First Liar the Archduchess Eleyna Velenosa.

Lord Antony Grimhall will have for his First Liar the Archduke-Consort Talen Velenosa.

Let them grow to be wise and cunning just as they grow to be strong.

Two million.

Wrong, well over two million, one hundred and twenty one thousand. Roughly. The numbers need to be looked more closer for precision. I sat at my desk and looked over them and smile. I had not fathomed that we would have even this much by now and we still have a small stockpile of coin and resources ready to be converted.

But somewhere, in the isles and across the compact, there are children learning. And they're living a more carefree existence. Because of the generosity and concern, the care of others.

That's two thousand children.

Perhaps this can be done. In my lifetime.

Gods I pray it can.

So much style, skill and showmanship in one person. I'm your biggest fan!

A new blade. It won't bring back those that I have lost, nor will it undo all that has happened, but it will go a long way down this new and trecherous path. Something to delight the audience, until I've the funds to do something more.

Relationship Note on Helia

I am often proud of my daughter, and today is no exception. Helia, you continue to astound me with your skill and ability, and now you have won a duel! All praise to Princess Sorrel as well, of course, I hear she was very much gracious and magnificent in her own right, and Helia told me she is now 'her biggest fan', so apparently it went well!

My family is small, but each is a bright, shining star, and I could not be happier.

For the record:

I am not actually dead. Any and all severed limbs brought forward and claimed as mine were, much to the disappointment of many, false.

Better luck next time.

**scrawled in a flowing scrip with far to many loops and curls**

Upon arriving to Arx I was lucky enough to hear of a duel and able to attend, I am not sure what it was fought over, but one thing is certain: The fighters in this city are skilled. Very skilled. I will need to resume training to do my House proud and safeguard it's needs and desires should I be called upon to do my duty.

Never try to tame a wolf. Though I still love him he had to be let go.

Relationship Note on Aiden

It is a shame, Duke Aiden, that you were not able to enjoy your own event. My cousin and I enjoyed the dancing - though we were the first out - and the costume contest. Such generosity of spirit and creativity begets its like. Such creatures have only prowled the imagination before last night, a truly stunning event and for a good cause.

It may surprise no one that my cousin Kalani and I were the otters, our masks made at The Tanned Hide. I don't know if Oliver or an apprentice made them, but they were exactly what we were looking for.

I'm still curious to know who was who since I wasn't there for the unmasking!

Relationship Note on Alarissa

I had not had occasion to meet Princess Alarissa before this past week's Tea at the Queensrest and found her a delightful hostess. My cousin Kalani and I enjoyed ourselves immensely. And... between cake, cups, and conversation, the seed of an adventure was planted.

My shopping expedition today grew far more expensive than I originally anticipated. I found a delightful ring for Princess Macda, picked up a pair of lovely hairpins for Princess Liara, and found, in a new shop -- I mean, new to me, I'd never been there before -- an absolutely gorgeous set of antique silverware. I write specifically about this treasure because it seems so unusual a find to me, and I have set it up on display in the Dining Room at the mansion because it seems a lovely piece of the past of House Grayson. As I write this in my journal I consider the idea of hosting a dinner party for no other reason than to ensure that people have a chance to see it.

Imori says that the shop we wandered into was called Storied Treasures. It's near the theater on Lord's Lane. If you have any interest in antiquities at all I sincerely recommend taking a peek at what they have on display.

It seems I am to be a Champion. How quickly my outlook has changed, how swiftly have I found a home -- a guild, a Patron, a purpose. I can only hope it will go as well as I believe it will. I must meet more of these 'champions' and improve upon my skills in battle.

Hearing a lot about the Dragon that won blessed dressed at the Menagerie Masquerade.

Dutchess Pravus makes for an excellent model, but I'm not shy about having been the leather stitch that completed her dress and boots for her.

Might need to think about expanding the shop if she continues to be a fan of my working.

I wonder if it is true that there was an old Goddess who claimed as her domains the sea and the sky, as Mangata does, but also love.

I can see how they'd go together, love and the sea.

I try to never allow myself to suffer from loneliness. It is not easy when one has lost close family, a spouse, good friends...to pick up again from the beginning and make a new friend. And some things cannot be replaced.

I'm lonely for my sister. I'm lonely for people who I cannot write about in the whites because of clandestine relationships (juicy, but no, get me drunk in person and maybe I'll spill.)

I'm even lonely for Frederic and I really only love my son twice a year for two day visits.

I think I'll look into another hobby. Something to pass the time.
