Relationship Note on Leola

She'll hate reading this, but if someone asked me to point out one of the most inspiring and truly exceptional people in all of Arx, Dame Allenatore would be one of my immediate choices. Integrity, humility, intelligence, bravery and optimism are all facets that make up this rather remarkable knight, and her devotion to Petrichor and His domain is to be admired. Someone I am honored to know.

Keeping busy has allowed time to fly by and I cannot wait until it is this time next week! I attended a very interesting tea party--Velenosans always seem to put their own spin on things and this was no different! It was quite lovely and I'm pretty sure I still might be drunk from that special tea! It was quite fun seeing a very different group of people come together and enjoy themselves, even if the last secret of the night ended up being that you should probably not sit on any of the furniture there ever. Ever. EVER!

Went to a fun duel that ended in a snowball fight where my beloved valiantly sacrificed his face to keep me safe from an onslaught! Don't worry, he's fine! But it was very heroic of him!

Last night was the reception for Alessandro and Margret, two people that my heart soared for when the engagement was announced and for whom it just about bursts every time I see them together. Their wedding was a beautiful, private affair and the reception was amazingly lovely! There was mullled wine, beautiful decorations and wonderful company! I wish we could have stayed longer, but it was so nice to see Lord Alessandro and Lady Margret so happy together amongst their friends and family. And the king! Who I keep running into. I do hope his guards recovered well after watching him ice skate.

Which, if anyone is ever challenged to an ice skating competition, I HIGHLY recommend Bliss Whisper stand as your champion. Basically in all things!

Time is not going fast enough!

I just keep in mind all great houses started somewhere, and many people reap the fruit of the accomplishments of those who come before them.

Never forget your roots, but don't be afraid to aim for the stars!

Oh for the sake of all the gods:

I most assuredly did not need multiple letters sent to my home to correct me on this matter, but good for you, I suppose.

I'm flattered, I think, even though I'm only second best to this 'Omega'.

Clearly I need to kick down some more doors.

I swear, if Merril drags me out of one more thing this week, I might lock her in the Tower.

I know she means well, and she's right, there's a lot of work to be done, but I miss the days where I had the time to go to Darts'n'Drinking or the Sip'n'Spar. While I'm all for staying sober when I'm on duty, there has been a horrific spate of it in my off hours.

Relationship Note on Petal

If you are looking for clothing, apparently it is said that Petal is a good choice. I am starting to think they are right. She has already started work for me, and is very kind and helpful, in picking something of use.

I have often had people ask how I've done all that I've done. The answer, honestly, is a simple one. You jump in feet-first. Death is another part of life, as every sellsword knows. If you bite it, maybe you come around again, even better. If not, you get famous. Fear is for other people. Regret is for other people. Simply do as you wish, and be really good at handling consequences. It's not hard.

Gentle Readers,

The reception for Alessandro and Margret in honor of their wedding was absolutely lovely! I cannot express just how wonderful a job that Margret did in decorating the gardens to turn it into a winder wonderland. Seeing my cousins so happy made my heart lift with joy as well. We are blessed to have Alessandro join the Greenmarch family.

Seeing our allies from House Redrain and House Velenosa also made me quite happy. I very much look forward to having them visit us at Greenmarch Lodge as often as possible. And, of course, the King's attendance was such a wonderful honor to my cousins and to our house!

And I deeply enjoyed the time spent with Duke Vercyn this evening. His presence is, as always, comforting and gracious. I have always held the deepest respect for him and this night simply confirmed it.

All in all, it was truly a magical evening.

Relationship Note on Vercyn

I feel like I have just gotten a membership to a secret club tonight.

One where I'm being asked to call him 'Uncle' Vercyn.

Is this reality?

The wedding celebration of Lord Alessandro and Lady Margret Greenmarch was every bit as wonderful as I knew it would be. The care they put into the festivities was evident, and their love warmed everyone this winter's eve.

The skating rink was a particular success. If you've never seen Bliss Whisper ice skate? You really ought to.

All in all, it was a wonderful way to honor the love of two very deserving people and welcome Alessandro to the family officially.

Untamed and Unconquered.

I'm very excited about the progress we're making in planning for the rebuilding of the County of Darkwater. It's a massive undertaking, and yet, it seems that we will make what was almost leveled into a beautiful home for many people. All of the thralls who work on the rebuilding of infrastructure will be paid a fair wage, enough to free them, and they'll be encouraged to settle there. We'll be working on the lighthouse and the keep. We'll be making the port into a real destination.

Not only will people want to visit Darkwater for the shrine, but it will be an important stop for the military and an essential trading port. We have plans, and we have people eager to execute those plans.

Anyone interested in investing in Darkwater is encouraged to get in touch with me or Lady Carita. This is an exciting opportunity!

The unfeeling bitch thing is a rumor.

I did say that the Duchess Pravus didn't care, I never said that I don't. There are plenty of people who can attest that I am quite a passionate person who does a lot for the people that I care about.

Have a wonderful evening, Grandmaster.

I wasn't aware that I had to inform the general public anytime there is a change in my life. Let me catch everyone up so that people can move on to things that are actually important.

Following the challenge being issued, it was conveyed to me the importance of duels being fought by Champions. I have been asked several times to stand in this capacity so I contacted the Champions to resolve the issue. I absolutely do not think of myself as a performer, but I do not want to disrespect a tradition and an institution. This change was mentioned to the people involved, if I didn't make it plain to Legate Orazio, I apologize to him, and will write him a personal apology after this has been given to the scholars.

If there is anything else about my life that you absolutely need to know, please find something better to do.

Relationship Note on Mydas

Mistress Mirari Corsetina was not a Champion when Duchess Pravus chose her, or if she was, she denied it. Apparently she joined the Guild without informing the Legat.

But she and the Duchess don’t care what anyone thinks, I’m pretty sure.
