Relationship Note on Arianna
Arianna Pravus is an asshole. This is a noble that would spit on a commoner, a sister of the Faith, after her death? I want nothing to do with her. All Pravus will be banned from Elegant Impressions, on the basis of such a spiteful human being that they have in their House.

Thank you for the gloves. They're quite a delight. Their design has proved wonderfully helpful when trimming thorny rosebushes

Relationship Note on Arianna
Few rise to the challenge of a glamorous welcome the way my sister has. The spread hearkened back to our youth, and yet neither of us is quite the same. Arianna's instinct to protect me remains and, I have no doubt, she means as an act of love. But when I am one day weighed for my deeds, will I say I stood with idle hands and a still tongue because I was loved?
That's rhetorical. Of course, I will do neither. I am where I need to be.

I am ever grateful to have a cousin like Arianna. She has a physical strength and wildness that I do not.

Wait a minute, are you comparing contracts to oaths? Are you actually confusing a temporary business arrangement with an oath of fealty?

I don't get paid for 'most things I do'. In addition, and it may shock you to learn this; most sellswords aren't nobles slumming it up to play soldier. Most sellswords have to buy their own food, shelter, and equipment, many sellswords have families relying on their work, and most of them don't get money handed to them whenever they have a whim. Doing the nobility's dirty work is expensive in both resources and actual lives, so damned straight you get charged when you want more people to stick on the front lines of your wars. You expect us to die for you, for free? With what rations, with what weapons, with what armor should we do that, exactly? Your own soldiers don't march without food and equipment, I wonder if Pravus sneers at them as well.

I have a need to know who tutored the young Lady Arianna Pravus, because her journals are practically illegible and their history is lacking. If the House of Pravus has need of teaching, House Whisper is always available, with the finest courtiers in the Compact to instruct those who may need it.

Most dear sister, once more we are reunited and never again shall we allow fate to drive us apart - the well-being of our House is far too important for such vagaries.

Journals like this are what end up giving disciples of the Thirteenth a bad name. Contrariness to no end. "Yes, but what if not?" with no actual point.
"We don't like slavery, but what if WE are the slavers?!" is certainly an observation! Is there more?
I miss Prince Mydas. I rarely interacted with him in the whites and he did seem to infuriate some people, but he never did so without some meaningful purpose. He challenged and educated, he didn't sanctimoniously scold.
We've lost a tremendous contrarian.

I would argue that a well-tended web, my lady, is strong -- is very much a purpose-built foundation -- or I'm taking an analogy too far. The basic structure includes radial threads that extend out like wheel spokes from the center. Another set of threads spiral out in concentric circles. Each of these threads serves its purpose, it seems, in the catching of flies and such. When a spider is actively occupying a web, it will repair its torn web as needed. (Why, yes, I was observing one --) Just wait until the spider abandons that web. Once it's been neglected, it starts to pull apart and grow dusty. Then a fly could just --
Honestly, what I would do if I were a fly is completely irrelevant.

You may not find your title of consequence, yet my wife's has meaning. That's Grand Duchess Eleyna Velenosa to you.
I also advise you pick your fights with great care, Lady Arianna. Some words are best swallowed down without retort.

My ground is firm. I know what it is to be someone carries multiple duties for various positions and I know a struggle it can be. I see how hard Princess Reese works, and I also see how sincere Prince Ainsley is. The responsibility of being General is considerable, and even if someone other than Ainsley is called to duty, it should not be shouldered on someone with already considerable obligations.
However, I think Mistress Shard has a point about what the Princess might want, though screech protest at Princess Seraphine's remark as to harpies.
And then of course, there is the formidable Lady Sabella's very sound advice.
I commend you on your restraint in listing the alleged abuses by the House of the royal family.

As long as you're already digging the hole, you should defend your point with proof; the examples of "gross negligence" on behalf of House Grayson.
I'm sure your liege Duke would be interested in hearing it. Probably the Inquisition, too.
