Relationship Note on Aleksei

Relationship Note on Aleksei

While I will not make mention on the idea of my sulking, which may I add is a mildly outrageous notion.

I do know someone that is prone to exceptionally dramatic collapses onto couches or beds with rather loud complaint.

Relationship Note on Aleksei

You left Sanctum when you were very young, had you stayed you might realize that a silly duel, is a silly duel and fighting it 'to the first blood' does not elevate it.

And yes I know there is some irony in me saying this being that I just accepted a duel from Duke Cristoph over notes and if they should always accompany a gift.

So, your thinking is that a duel, fought over frivlous reasons and for two people to entertain each other is "ok" in the eyes of Gloria as long as it involves blades and to the first blood?

That was a duel involving swords to first blood, and honor was done to Gloria thereby. Also, I wasn't responsible for it.

I have made one duel challenge in my life. The party who wronged me retracted and apologized, and we went about our way thereafter, as per the longstanding traditions of the Oathlands when it comes to offenses of honor.

Huh. Maybe that’s why no one makes it to the ‘consequences’ bit.

I didn't actually learn his kid's name, just that he apparently really likes spiders.

I cannot tell if you are more sassy since you stopped being Blessed Aleksei, or if now you are not Blessed Aleksei I allow myself to enjoy your words and stop looking for hidden guidance.

Oh I am absolutely going to underwrite future bets your kid makes against you now that you've put the idea in my head.

I think I was just having a moment. Not a good one. I've apologized.

Sometimes babies are a little like horrible sea monsters in that all this stuff comes violently out of them, sometimes very suddenly, and you get overwhelmed and people come rushing to your rescue, but at the end of it all, everyone needs a bath, especially the baby, three nurses, and me.

And now the baby's asleep and perfect and easy to love.

A worthy Champion whom Gloria has chosen to represent the settlement of this minor quarrel. Well done.

Relationship Note on Aleksei

I've decided to take responsibility. I just haven't had Patches out in public much of late and it's possible that social harmony depends far more on the presence of one small, three-legged dog than I thought.

We should have a 'pet a dog, calm down' day, but only if I'm allowed to drink and make sarcastic commentary at the sidelines.

But you would get to see all sorts of things, such as <redacted> and also <redacted> and, of course, we can't forger about <redacted>!

Yes, Scholar, write the word redacted in there, with the pointy brackets. And my instructions here. People like reading instructions.

Anyway, Messere, it's not like I do not find time to myself outside of my work.

My apprentice has suddenly burst out laughing for some reason. End it here, Schol- yes of course write this part down.

Relationship Note on Aleksei

I'm sure somebody else can correct me, but is this the first time we have a fellow literally championing a God that hasn't involved some demon armies of old and a lot of magical whatsit? This seems like something we should write down in some history books. That time the Inquisition shook their fist at a God over terrible papercuts, to where the redeemed servant must champion the righteous cause.

Personally I think if Skald is defending papercuts, that discipleship needs to get its priorities straight. Because fuck papercuts.

I didn't read up on today's fit of arguments, but I do see it's mostly about Aleksei after some skimming. So now is probably the best time to ask this.

Did they let you bathe while you were out there? I mean at least pour some water over your head every now and then to get any grime off?

I confess that my curiosity has gotten the better of me, and so I am compelled to ask... how does a man as clever and intelligent as Aleksei Morgan accidentally father a child?

Relationship Note on Aleksei

Aleksei Morgan, formerly Aleksei Godsworn, formerly Aleksei Morgan...

Yes he was released from his oath. For reason and cause. However, he did atone for this. He debased himself before the Gods. He did this because he discovered he was not free to make the oaths he did. Had we known about his son, he would never have become Blessed Aleksei. Had he known? He would not have followed a calling that he felt.

In his time as Aleksei Godsworn however, he served the Faith with a great deal more honour than I see from many in the city. He was loyal. Obviously he was wrong, because despite his Oathlands upbringing he remains an unrepentant liberal. But he was also good. And virtuous. And kind. And he did what must be done even when it was not the easy path. He championed Skald in a way that means it is hard to imagine Skald's disciples without Aleksei at their head.

He also became our friend. And I remain proud to consider him that. That friendship does not die because we regret his actions, his ignorance of certain facts - things he could not necessarily control. And, this is the key difference that some who seek to attack him by comparing him to the castigation of divorcees recently fail to grasp - he did not seek to return to his station in life. He is no longer Blessed. No longer Godsworn. He is no longer a man commanding the respect many nobles would wish, but instead he is a common man. He sought punishment, he atoned, and he was humbled.
