A meditation on orthodoxy. On the surface the answer to what is orthodox is what is right or common or accepted. More achaic study shows not just these connotations but also a certain adherence to history, tradition. It is these shades of the traditional that give me hope that with sharing historical knowledge, I can come to some place of understanding with those who hold to such beliefs.

thank you
for your boundless charm
and crooked smiles
and the bounty of bright blessings
you bring to my life

thank you
for your deep love
and the secrets you hold
and my heart you hold
with such grace and such care

thank you
for understanding
that the signet i wear
ties me to duty before romance
and knowing i love you so

thank you
for never asking me to choose
between the platform to help, and you
you are wiser, kinder, more loving
than you show the world

thank you
for showing me

Relationship Note on Eilonwy

The sheer volume of things that have changed in my life since last we met was almost mindboggling when we got the chance to talk again yesterday. I still love you dearly though. You are one of my best friends

Relationship Note on Alrec

Shame you died. I guess you were wrong when you promised to break my heart. It's just as well, I was disillusioned once I realized that you were not who I'd hoped. Still, you died before you could prove useful to me. And for that, I am sorry.

Relationship Note on Raven

The Blackheart of Pravus escorted me to the Great Grey Ball, and proved to be one of the most graceful dancers I have had the joy of dancing with. She truly is an alluring and mysterious companion that I am glad to've met. I would like to know her better in time.

Perhaps it is just my heritage (my Grandmother being a Pravus), but I am finding such delight in getting to know many of the Lycene people, especially Pravosi and Setarcan among them.

Well, I do not entirely know what happened to the sweet person who I fell so hard for.so many months ago... But some of the changes I really like. And others have me a bit worried. Perhaps my worry will prove unfounded.

I do love it when fate conspires to warp outside circumstance to favor one's already established aims. What a blessed week.

Sometimes really just seeing and /getting/ the other person on the rare occasion you brush into one another can make for some of the most fulfilling friendships. I am glad we were able to catch up.

I am heartened by the welcome shown after talking to Lady Arianna about my grandmother's being a Pravus. I should like to spend more time in the Ward of the Lyceum.

I should investigate happenings before assuming.

The only problem is... I dread deeply what happens if my theory is right.

Because I have zero intentions of changing my path. And that could kill me.

Relationship Note on Brianna

Wildfire! Pride of the North! Seeing your ferocity today on the field I was reminded of the stories that kept me in such awe of your father, growing up. You did the north proud, my Lady. Damned proud.

My favorite neice just got to Arx! We first met when I was five years old. She has always been a light in my life, and a spot of cherished beauty in the world every day since then. She shot up seemingly overnight, and is now six inches taller than I am. Gods above. And I got to spend the night with both she and my favorite Lycene, soaking in hot springs, before having someone literally carry me to bed and tuck me in. Days like this, I know I am the luckiest woman alive.

Relationship Note on Tescelina

Lady Wyrmguard, your charts are immaculate. may I have your permission to make a copy of them to take home for study? I can see the exhaustive detail that has gone into them, and as an artist, from one artist to another, the finished product is nothing less than a masterpiece.

Turning twenty four in a couple weeks on the 15th. Not sure if I intend to do anything to celebrate. Probably depends on how the rest of my personal life is going.

Relationship Note on Solange

That's the thing about being forced. You have no choice. So I'm quite certain that all the knowledge of that in the world will only make someone already in a terrible decision not of their choosing feel worse.

I can only hope that five years from now, you will be able to look back and understand. I did not know some of what was happening until it had already happened, but I believe in the end how things have happened will prove.to have been for the best. Especially when you consider the trajectory that would have been required as it compares to the one you actually want to follow. Five years can feel like a long time. Buy I hold out hope.
