Back in the city and it feels so good! If ever I decide to "rough it" again? I give full permission to anyone present at the time to lock me in a room until I return to my senses. There is no one in the wilderness to hear you sing but the birds and they are jealous creatures.

I'm to begin working on a play at the Theater, it should be incredibly fun, with an interesting theme. I do look forward to it, hopefully we can make the preparations we need to start it soon.

I have bought a house. It is nothing particularly special, but it is in the Lower Boroughs, near the family's Den. It will be nice to have a more private space to go to from time to time, though it won't be nearly as comfortable as my home in the Whisper House! I can't wait to show it to Mae!

It is hard to imagine all of the stories coming out of the fighting at Maelstrom are true. Monsters? The Dead? I am thankful so many have returned safe and sound, but I wonder what the future holds for us!

Relationship Note on Mae

My Cousin Mae is a great friend, I always enjoy spending time with her, talking, gossiping and whatever else we might get up to together. I had the joy of running into her this past week, and I learned that she is learning to play the Banjo. I had never thought to see her take up a musical instrument, and I shall encourage her to play every time I see her!

I had a long chat with my dear cousin the other day about boys, girls, and many other things as well.

With the city returning to a relatively peaceful state, and the joyous news of the king returning, I thought it might be a wonderful time for the Mummers to put on a performance to help lift the spirits and look forward. I think I shall pursue this in the coming weeks, with my fellow entertainers.

I purchased a piano made by Sir Silas for Whisper House. I am very excited about that. I adore music and plan to play the piano all the time.

I have a harp too in rosewood with nightingales.

Maybe now is not the time to think of such things, but music helps to keep the darkness at bay.

So maybe it is the perfect time.

Thank you Sir Silas - your work is so wonderful.

Acacia has returned.

I am so happy to have my sister near me.

I feel more compete with her close by.

It is scary times we are facing, but I feel more able to face them with my family close.

My brave and whisper spitfire sister, Acacia.

My hardworking and leading Uncle, Torian

My adorable and witty cousin, Mae

My strong and loyal Uncle, Orathy

The Cullers are together.

In the lower boroughs.

We will make sure it survives this all.

Relating to the Rubicund weapon, I will be not allowing Cullers to compete for such since the Festival is hosted by a Culler and on our new lands, such could be dishonorable. I apologize to my Uncle Torian and my Cousin Gibson.

Hana Grayhope, Felix Arterius and Julea Sanguine all offered to craft the Rubicund weapon. I have heard they are all wonderful smiths and I found myself utterly unable to choose between them. I decided to let the winner of the weapon pick their smith.

I should note that qualify for the weapon the following must be in place:

1. The winner must be a commoner.
2. The winner must not already own a Rubicund or greater weapon than such.
3. The winner must be a warrior, fighter or sellsword who is trained to use a weapon.
4. The winner must be willing to state they plan to keep their weapon (not sell such)
5. The winner must be wiling to state they plan to use their weapon against bringers or in defense of Compact should the need arise.

I have the best news! Funds to have a Rubicund weapon will be provided as a prize at the Festival of the Commons. This is thanks to Prince Darren who gave 10,000 silver, Captain Audric who gave 10,000 silver and Larissa Whisper gave 500 silver. I will provide the rest of the silver needed to finish the refining. The prize will be given to a commoner warrior who is devoted to helping protect the boroughs and fighter the bringers.
