Relationship Note on Marian

An aunt for the second time, and honored to be Speaker for Princess Nia Imogen Redrain, affectionately known as Bert (to me, and no one else). I cannot imagine, though my sister has fought many a heroic battle worth of high praise, that I should ever be more proud of her than I am at the birth of Princess Nia.


I suppose Prince Fergus did all right, too.

A fierce woman who took lessons to heart and improved upon them. All the more fierce fighting guarding her stomach through the entire tournament. Well done Mari

Fergus and Marian came by, and we had a long talk. It's good to know I have some drinking buddies, because boy am I going to need them sooner or later.

I compete with my sister ALL the time! Why, only the other week, I won a mask in competition with her. Her husband just isn't trying hard enough.

Finally I see someone said bacon.

Nothing like the smell of delicious delicious bacon.

Relationship Note on Marian

I know all the pesky details about relationships through marriage rather than by blood. But, you will always be my sister as far as I'm concerned. My kids will call you Aunt, not cousin. And anyone who tries to tell me otherwise can KMA.

I am so happy for you. You're radiant again, which is exactly how it should be.

Oh shit. Guess you're fucking stuck with me now, ain't you.

There's only one little thing I regret about you.

That fucking bed.

You're keeping that thing, Darren will pin me to the damn wall if you don't.

Princess Marian Valardin, the Sword of Sanctum, and soon to be my cousin-in-law. She has given Fergus a new lease on life, and for this I thank her. I've never seen him so happy, as when he is with her. And for this reason above all, I welcome her into our family with open arms.

Relationship Note on Marian

Finally met Count Turo today, during the duel between Dagon and Dominic. Dagon absolutely destroyed the man. It was over as soon as it started.

Anyhow, it seems someone is coming by to visit Turo and he's peeved at Regi about it. Not sure what that's about.

In other news, we'll be getting some tutoring in the finer parts of swordplay from some Valardin woman, name of Marian. She taught Dagon it seems, so if she's half as good as he is, it'll be worth it.

I'm rooting for your steady recovery, sword. There won't be any to rematch if you wind up dead and I'll be mighty pissed if that ends up coming to pass.

If I ever start questioning why they call house Valardin a house of "Dragons", I'll be thinking of you to correct myself.

Relationship Note on Marian

Writer's note: Confessor Narciso Artiglio came in with a lute and just began to sing on the spot. He left without a word, only indicating we should be respectful of "her" song. What follows is what we pieced together, those of us present.

Have you heard of the tale,
Of a dragon whose mail,
Was not of steel most true,
But of a will all knew,

Ask the wind of cold winter,
He remembers of her,
She was born from the stag,
And defied the drake's flag,

Yet when a young wyrm fell,
Among the stags' dire cell,
She found her heart take flight,
To join the prince most bright,

Of this theft none would know,
Till the drake's scales of snow,
Would guard her from the harm,
Traitors deal with their arm,

His heart for her beat true,
And in that time all knew,
Stag's daughter would depart,
Her new life was to start,

Among dragons she lived,
Even when fate deprived,
The two with cruel hand,
Of this tale's more happy end,

Sorrow came for her then,
With bright memories when,
She was not so alone,
In tale of so tragic tone,

Yet she reared back and struck,
Sorrow now most awestruck,
"I will not yield" she said,
"For all the tears I shed,"

"None will see me unmade,
On neither tree nor blade,
Take my words to the wind,
I shall long live and grin."

So have you heard of her,
Still here is her answer,
Only whispers of she,
Are brought to my aerie,

But now she's summoned me,
To have a cup of tea,
Secrets and lies beware,
You shall soon find me there.

Relationship Note on Marian

And for the pleasure of the priests and those who read, a collab of a horrible sea shanty by myself and the wonderful Sword of Sanctum. Each verse created and sung either horribly by me or wonderfully by her;

Captain Jack liked to prance
In frilly ladies gowns
But on the seas, nobody teased
Caused he'd bury them in the ground.

His men were a loyal bunch.
Who didn't care about the fuss.
They just cared about their gold
That the Captain stole from ships abroad..."

First Mate Buck liked to write,
In secret he'd record the sight
Captain Jack in a corset too
And stockings with a little flair.

Sell his stories at the when in a rut,
Captain Jack was first rate smut!
But low betide the man who'd dare,
Describe Captain Jack's underwear

Cookie was the ship cook and medic
Stitching legs while serving shanties
If something fell into his spicy stew
He added more pepper and rue.

When ship came to port from sea.
Rats, dogs and cats were nary to see
Cause Cookie wasn't picky about his stew.
Damn that shit is one hell of a brew.

Old Gus was the meanest cuss,
a deckmaster who gave no fuss;
He'd whip your ass into a shape or two;
Not a single man was left to do;

Captain's men were a loyal bunch;
He knew they'd keep without a hunch;
Meanest 'rats who ever stole,
they'd piss in your eye and eat your roll.

......and while following verses were to be about specific members of the crew. We invite any who want to add their own verse to feel free to do so.

Relationship Note on Marian

First person to beat me in a spar in years. We've since become fast friends, one of the few I got.

Reminds me of me, been through shit, came out the other end different for it. Not going to say better, but different. She's got a good head on her shoulders. Can't remember the last time I respected anyone like that. Could be she just gets me. Easy to talk to her.

Hard to really describe how I feel about it. I just know if she ever asked me to help her out, I'd do it. Though she could stand to learn to drink a little better. Take lessons from Freja.

Good swordswoman, better friend. Can't ask for much more than that.

Now I know where the expression, "It's all in the hips," comes from thanks to a certain someone. This is better than the ice treats debacle.
