The Courtyard is covered in smashed oyster shells. Little pieces scattered everywhere.

Streaks of colour tangle in the tree branches and empty bottles are everywhere.

There's a song caught in my head and I've a small bruise on my arm.

We never know what tomorrow will bring, and that's okay, because today I am smiling.

I came to a realization that I don't really enjoy doing comissions. They stress me to no end! I am making something for someone else and worried about capturing that person in each piece I create. What I discovered is that I find it truly fulfilling to work /alongside/ a person to create their masterpiece! If that person puts their hand and soul into the weapon or their piece of armor, then it becomes something far more valuable than silver. It becomes a /part/ of them. The piece develops a soul. I think from now on, that is how I will handle comissions. Oh, this will lead to some interesting stories and pieces.

I have been given the pleasure to work with General Keaton to forge a beautiful new suit of armor. My first love will always be forging weapons, but this suit will be something else. I just hope that it will truly be everything the General will want.

I've been locking myself in my office, scholar. I know I know. I hate sitting still, but have you seen me lately? Not to mention I have a lot to catch up on before the baby is born. It never ends.

I've been camping the last few days. On my own. I think I needed to re-center myself in the best way I know how. In the best place I know. I feel more grounded and at peace, that much I DO know.

My friend you continue to inspire me. To be better, be myself, and never rush to judgement.

Princess denica's event was marvelous! It's been a long time since I had oysters, and honestly I'm still not overly keen on sea food for various reasons. But the event was brilliant and truly stupendous fun! And there are plenty of uses for a shucking knife besides shucking!!

I had a grand time catching up with everyone at the Igniseri Dinner. It had been far too long since I entertained guests. I look forward to the next and hope it was as lively as this one.

proof that you can take the scholar from the library but not the library from the scholar. I took a walk on the beach with winter and chanced upon Lord Pasquale walking cousin Sunaias dugs as well as Lady Ivy. What did we do. Chat about our respective research watching our dogs play in the wqves. A pleasant and beautiful evening

Our journey together has only just begun, and already it's led to some surprising discoveries. What waits around the next bend, I wonder?

Relationship Note on Cristoph

Duke Laurent has proven to be a prodigious research partner and was able to furnish me with documents and notes that I'd yet to locate in the Archives. There is nothing quite so rewarding as finding someone who's areas of interest align so closely with my own and I very much look forward to continuing to work with him in the coming months.

When the looming storm at long last broke
And Kinstrife claimed we Isles folk
The Thrax unto his swords so spoke:
"We'll make their widows mourn.

For we are heirs of the Mourning Sea,
The hard old ways we'll share with thee.
For House and kin we war and reave,
We are to battle born."

The tides will rise and the tides will fall,
Old ways are kept in proud grim halls,
With new winds at our backs, stand tall
To greet the rising morn.

For we are heirs of the Mourning Sea,
The hard old ways we'll share with thee.
For House and kin we war and reave,
We are to battle born.

Although it were a strife unsought
And sons against their fathers fought,
For grief of men, the Wind cares not,
We’ll never be forsworn.

For we are heirs of the Mourning Sea,
The hard old ways we'll share with thee.
For House and kin we war and reave,
We are to battle born.

All those who rose with rebel hearts
Did call on vassals to do their parts.
They’d well trade in the warrior’s arts,
Once damned and thrice scorned.

For we are heirs of the Mourning Sea,
The hard old ways we'll share with thee.
For House and kin we war and reave,
We are to battle born.

Yon fools cry for the bad old days,
Thinking that we forgot our ways.
Their pride will bleed and coasts will blaze
When sound the reaving horns.

For we are heirs of the Mourning Sea,
The hard old ways we'll share with thee.
For House and kin we war and reave,
We are to battle born.

Come throngs! Come beasts! We never yield.
To fight until death’s rest we’re steeled.
Bear me to the grave upon my shield
Weep not nor be forlorn.

For we are heirs of the Mourning Sea,
The hard old ways we'll share with thee.
For House and kin we war and reave,
We are to battle born.
