Elanne carries her little baby doll by its arm and plonks its head on the ground everywhere she takes it. I do hope she doesn't think she'll be doing that to her little sisters someday soon.

Looking back over the year so far, I've let some aspirations fall to the wayside. Some goals couldn't be advanced and had to be routed around, while others remained nebulous and difficult to even approach. Are they achievable or not? It's hard to tell when I can barely make out the scale and rough outline of them.
One day I'll have the time and be rooted enough to paint again, and even garden too. Perhaps even before I turn thirty! Though, both seem the sort of thing to keep you busy after you've taken an arrow to the knee and can't adventure anymore.

I feel an ache of want in my chest.
Soon we sail for Setarco, and I have never wanted it more in my life -- acknowledging that I say that every time, and that it's probably true every time, as well.
To drift, unfettered, into her embrace is all I long for. Being able to turn in nearly any part of the Silken City and see a new angle of the Great Titan, her gaze ever so sly, wherever I am. To hear and smell and see and taste, to be immersed in the city of my birth. To feel home.
I know it won't last for long: we sail for the Saffron Chain shortly thereafter.
But I know with certainty I will feel better for it.

I had the strangest dream, the other night. I woke up, in a tub of hot water, only it wasn't water. It was /whiskey/.
I couldn't decide if it was the greatest thing that ever happened to me, or a horrific waste of otherwise drinkable alcohol.
Then I woke up, and found I'd knocked over the bottle in my sleep.

The seasons change again. Summer has fled, and autumn's arrived upon our doorstep.
Of all the things that I should miss with having to ship out soon to the Saffron Chain, winter is not amongst them. I remember still how horrid the winter was when I came from Setarco, and I shouldn't miss when it comes to greet the city once more. But... on the other hand, I will admit that it's a mixed matter, thinking of being south once more during the cold weather when I consider what we'll face.
May the gods grant that I - and all of us who sail forth - be back in time to see the arrival of spring to this city.

Crews named and accounted for. Provisions packed and loaded. I know exactly the names the Captains and First Mates but it only just occurred to me I'll need the names of their next of kin. All these preparations would drive me to distraction were it not for the things these tasks distract me from.

Offered an excellent viewpoint on cavalry tactics. Happy to take the questions, not even a laugh at them being potentially ridiculous. Cannot complain about that when you are new to understanding what the difference between the pins in the map is.

I just watched the Swan and Dove sail into the bay of Thrax, fresh from the dockyards in Setarco.
She is a beautiful ship. And she's mine. I must send a token of gratitude to Princess Adrienne.
Though now I wonder; should House Whisper also see about the construction and purchase as a caravel? I can imagine it would come in very handy for any number of reasons.
And if we do, what should we call such a thing?
Maybe I'll check in with my darlings and see what they think.

Been doing my research on the Ashford family. I have learned that some rumours are true, others exaggerated, but well, wait. No, no, I think most of the rumours are true. Hunting at night. Occasional naps in the kennels. Denying the existence of glassware while in the wild! Civility has its own definition from land to land, and house to house, and the only true civility that matters is proper glassware. It's not like I brought ornate wine goblets!

I do appreciate those who came to my auction and even more so to those who bid. Art is about beauty and beauty must be shared.
All in all no profits were made, despite the bidding wars that bounced back and forth, but it is nice to get back what you've invested into a passion project a d to see others just as excited.

Relationship Note on Emberly
She is a kind lady. Honest, and true to her friends. I can see why they are also true to her. She will be a great friend. I just hope others will give her a chance to redeem herself, rather than holding the past against her, especially when none of us can tell what the future will bring with the war nearing.

While I have only recently arrived to Arx from my long journey south from Clearlake, I'm hopeful that my abilities as a healer and apothecary will be useful, and helpful to the people here. I have heard that we are at war with Eurus... I believe that is how it is spelled. I do not know a great deal about it, but I will do all that I can to help my family and those in need during these times.
