In my mind Princess Alarissa and scents that make me think of the sea-- or of Maelstrom-- or of Mangata that are also subtle in their strength; flowers that are sweet and faint yet come through the strong notes of the sea --have become one. When I begin to mix scents that call to mind the spray of the sea-- salt water, kelp --but mix it with delicate but clear notes of florals-- carnations, lilies, and frangipangi-- it calls to mind the Princess of the Maelstrom.
That is not to say that no one else would wear these scents well, but when I think of Princess-Consort I think of scents that marry the beauty of the mainland with the sea.

Princess Alarissa and myself have had our conflict in the past as many are aware.
Recently we have bonded over our shared worship of Blessed Managata.
The past is behind us. It is a new day and a new tide.

A faithful woman. I am not sure what to write besides that she shares a common experience, and I hope her and the High Lord of Thrax have a wonderful and blessed marriage under Mangata's light. Also quite intelligent!

I am glad to welcome the princess into the Thrax - despite the dark times. Her common sense will be much needed in the coming weeks. More importantly though, i wish her all the happiness she can find.

When it comes to cats, my suggestion is a rich piece of raw fish sliced into little pieces and warmed a little.

There was a time when me marrying the regent of the Compact was one of the most poorly kept secrets this side of Arvum. That shit fell through quicker than I would have liked, but it's deep enough in the past and dramatics that who really cares anymore?
Still, now it seems I'm coming close to a wedding with a woman who was once slated to be queen. Weird how I keep falling in with all of these exceptional royals, but they always seem to produce the most tolerable ones of their ilk as well. This one though, she's prettier than most I've met and she's pretty damn good company too. Wouldn't have expected that from a Grayson blooded lady who went straight through Valardin nobility either. Those are two houses that Thrax and definitely myself have not had a spotless history with.
But here we are now. I'm ready to commit to this long lasting connection. I don't know if I really believe all the hype about 'love', but I can believe in a good companion for some years to come.
So here's to the future. Anyone who stands in your way stands in mine, 'till death and all of that shit.

For all that she seems pretty and somewhat....less than physically capable, she doesn't shrink away when things get both messy and violent. Perhaps she won't have as difficult a time fitting in as it might appear.

What a godsend. The delivering of goods brightened my day especially all the books and mead. I am intrigued to see what the Princess designs after studying the shared book. After the Night of White, I am certain to be left awe-struck by her talents.

Princess Alarissa even managed I think to make it around to all the tables at the party. Considering the sheer number of nobles there, that's quite an accomplishment.

I don't really care for parties, I never did and around this time of year.. I like them even less.
But it was a joy to see Princess Alarissa as the charming hostess. She literally glowed and seemed happy in a way I had not seen her in... well a long time. The stars were shining brightly, grass was green, and the sod didn't even damage the floor of the Vow. And despite my best attempts to just put in an appearance and be supportive, her joy turned out to be infectious and I found myself staying and having a great time.
Thank you Princess Alarissa for reminding me that we all must take time to smile and laugh and dance. And that we must move on into the future and not always be stuck in the past. Thank you.

Along with the Lady Monique, she put together a simply phenomenal event. It was everything one expects from a Great House's ball: elegant, extravagant, dazzling, and delightful, while also delivering the unexpected. It's difficult to imagine the work which must have gone into transplanting grass and flowers into the very dignified main hall of Valardin manor, much less in the dead of winter. On top of the planning, both she and Lady Monique were warm, engaging hostesses, who - as far as I could tell - made every effort to reach out to as many of the (many!) guests that could be found. It truly was a delightful evening.

I have acquired many titles in my lifetime. Self-proclaimed, given in respect, disrespect and taken. However, none of them truly shined as much as the one Princess Alarissa in all of her drug addled mind could come up with.

I've met with Princess Alarissa a couple of times in the last month. I feel like she has made herself well at home in the Oathlands, and adapted well to our culture. But perhaps the Crownlanders have the easiest time doing so?
She always provides scintillating conversation, and I've had the pleasure of discussing a few potential works with her. And I know for a fact that her recommendation landed me at least one comission.
Should you read this, your highness, know that I am grateful.

Got asked to a late night bath by a Princess of Valardin yesterday. Can't say much for how she holds her rum but the cherry tarts were fucking great and pretty fucking funny too.

Social necessitates in a society such as ours are not an option. They are an obligation and a tool and a weapon. Anyone may, of course, choose to wield theirs as they wish but they should also understand that there are consequences to all actions. The Whisper House prides itself on it's social standing and it's social influence and when at an event hosted by the Whisper House, good behavior is *not* something that should have to be enforced. If you have to be called out for your bad behavior at an event, then the problem is most likely not the event.

I met Princess Alarissa Valardin yesterday, in a most unexpected turn of circumstance. She has taken the Valardin people as her own and seems to care for them as deeply as someone born into the Oathlands. She impressed me with her sincerity and I will not soon forget her kindness.
