Trouble is acting up. This is the third time he's passed a message off on a random person, and I can only conclude that he's pissed about moving where there aren't any kitchens. Not like the fatty couldn't use a diet.
I need to remember to leave stuff out now. Prissy beggar.

Relationship Note on Vayne
The value of a good mentor cannot be adequately calculated. Father Vayne has guided and mentored me since I first arrived in Arx some years ago; he taught me near everything I know as a Mirrormask. He remains a mentor to me. Counselor, confidant, teacher, friend. I am who I am today in no small part due to his influence in my life.

Changing and unchanging are more than related. Both states are always there, locked in a battle for control. The question begged is best summed up by the story of two wolves and a man in the forest.
An old man lives in a house in the middle of the forest, and every night two wolves appear. One is trying to attack the house, to kill the man within it; the other tries to the protect the home and the man. Which wolf wins?
The one the old man feeds.

How strange it is to find yourself on a new path.
When I moved to Arx, I was not even convinced that the gods were more than ideals. Now, I am sworn to them and have the honour of representing The Dark Reflection for the Faithful. Even so, this change happened in lockstep with the steady presence of business in my life.
This time, there is no comfort to be found as what was isn't what is. There is no reassurance in what I knew before, what I did before. How strange it is to know nothing.
Strange and thrilling.

Wedding over. Hopefully that answered some questions because I've got work to do.

They say waiting is hard, and perhaps I consider myself immune to "hard". Waiting is a massive part of logistics; the ability to be patient is indispensible to the job. While there's little idleness, it takes time to cross country. It takes time to do things right takes time to plan, time to prepare, and time to execute.
All that said? Waiting sucks.

The Mirrormask meeting went well. The High Inquisitor was able to be present as we discussed the Shine's reaffirmation of oaths to be a Tehom's Advocates to those who need a voice raised defense. I'll be approaching the Crown Court to make this clear as well.

Just got back from Sanctum, and it was nice to get my hands dirty again. Children, ancients, and those spanning the spectrum between, all coming to terms with a new definition of 'life'. Happiness and relief is dominant in the air, but there is also apprehension. Everything has changed for them, and I can only pray that their lives flourish now. May they never know slavery again, be it to man or fate.

I'm assured by Brother Aelgar that this one won't sink, but the fact that we've floundered two ships makes the financier in me exceptionally tense.

I had the pleasure of facilitating the Oaths of Brother Oswyn at Lord Vellichor's shrine last night. It was a small ceremony that reminded me of my own ordination. Father Vayne, Archlector at the time, administered my vows in quiet at the Shrine of the Thirteenth, no others save for the Silent Reflections. As I listened to Brother Oswyn, I was encouraged to hear the offering of his life's work to the gods as a personal and intimate submission. It wasn't a subjugation, but rather the promise of faithful service. I was just honoured to be asked.
