These "date" auctions are tawdry and gross. I am surprised that a former thrall would happily engage in a mockery of selling humans upon an auction block to "buy thrall debt".
That would be like hiring a known assassin to bring a war criminal to justice.
You may be doing something good, but your methods in doing so make a mockery of the suffering of others.

Autumn's got to be the best time of year because that's when the entire mountain turns to fire from whatever trees are down in the Valley - the Fine river cutting through it like a like a pair of shears through some kind of fancy cloth. Gives me ideas. But not many. I'm no poet and I'm barely of a crafting mind. Just stealing sips of whiskey to keep me sane through all these meetings and greetings. Makes me wordy. Been up here mostly to meet with my people at Graypeak and review how we're looking after harvest, how well our stores will feed us during the winter, asking about the upkeep of our crops and flocks. Gods above -- so many damnable numbers and reports that I have piled up. All this nonsense will go straight to Wyatt once I'm back.

I have already alerted the docks that my husband will be sleeping off multiple hangovers on his boat this week.

As of this writing, Thrax and Velenosa have agreed, and I offer all of my gratitude to them for their embrace of this project. Thank you. We've seen so many changes these past years and this will be one of the better ones, to continue that trend. Thank for your foresight, and your generosity. Thank you for your willingness to help.

1) --interbred dragons and elves to create the Drac'alfar, who shift from humanoid forms into serpentine creatures capable of flight.
2) The Metallic Order meets in Uanna, nation of light, to suppress the Basepyre Heresy, which claims that the Great Many are superior to the Chosen Few.
3) The Cardian Betrayal: the sky dark with dragons: the Sutterlynds blasted into lifeless glass.
4) A woman cursed to immortality wakes on a beach, surrounded by charred bones and molten steel--and a wounded scout, whom she nurses to health, whom she loves.
5) Thirteen times, the woman bears a child with the scout, and thirteen times she cannot remember her labor.
6) She wakes to an unnatural quiet and discovers, tucked beside her, a skeleton with closely folded wings.
7) She fashions a lute from her lover's charred bones and plays a memorial of such joyful celebration that fields of dahlias unfurl through cracks in the glass-sheathed earth.
8) Some say she wanders the Wastes to this day, remembering her lover, singing to her children; some say her tears heal the tormented soil.

You are enough. You are wonderful and you are loved. I know that sometimes life just doesn't happen how you want it to or how you thought it would, but that doesn't mean it's not how it's meant to. It will get better and pain does go away. Hearts do mend. You will find that all out there if you just remember to breathe. We are more than our steps on the path, we are the journey and the life we live. We are everything we touch, for we leave just a little of ourselves and we are given that from others.
I want you all to know that Limerance is love. That love we are inspired to have, but that love is not just romantic. It's the love of a parent or a child. It's the love of friends. There are so many definitions of love and you are loved. There is someone out there that loves you right now. For who you are. Without question. Imagine how wonderful things would be if we could let go of the dark and live in the light. The beauty and transformation that comes with truly loving without need or greed. The ability to give fully and to be fully receptive.
I want you all to know that in Limerance you are loved and as his Devotion; I care.

Relationship Note on Bree
O witness you gods and goddesses bright
The deeds of valor from Solace's knight.
To the dying, a mercy found on th' field.
For ev'n the desperate, remains yet a shield.
Let Vellichor's mind, immortal and true,
Record for all time this woman's virtue,
And when she arrives at Elysia's gate,
Let then the gods' chosen ones celebrate
Their sister's return, unbroken by fear,
Who quailed from no danger, held naught more dear,
Than service to gods and folk of our land,
Who suffering banished like leaves in th' wind.

The Lunaris is the central hub of the lower floor, leading to:
Cabaret - with nightly entertainment from some of the Compacts most wonderful performers
Arcadia - a sprawling garden with fountain and outdoor stage.
Needful Things/The Augury - Two shops owned and maintained by Neviah, wherein Empyrean members get a 50% discount. One being an apothecary and the other being odds and ends and occasionally a place to have your fortune told.
Casino - Well, generally a games room and is relatively new. We are still waiting on developing games for this.
Aerary - So new it hasn't officially opened yet! This will be an art gallery showcasing pieces from various artists around the Compact Paintings, sculptures, pieces of fine jewelry or fashion.
The upstairs area is the members area, though of course visitors are welcomed and encouraged. The central hub is a hookah lounge, from where you can access:
Baths - Featuring herbal baths to soothe aching muscles or wounds, an aching heart, or to preserve the youthful appearance of your skin or improve its softness.
Terrace - A beautiful view of the city, perfect for small parties.
Conservatory - A place to hear some of the Compact's most beautiful birds and see some beautiful plants in bloom all year round. (The bubbling tub is divine!)
Library - Featuring many books on many topics, and is constantly growing.

Unfortunately, I choked on the one that actually mattered as far as puttin' me at any hope of a coin payout for the People's Tournament. Hard not to dwell when it came down to such a rough and tumble match - highlighted my weaknesses clear as day. I need to either work on puttin' down my opponents faster, or work on my own ability to stay in a fight longer.
Caspian seems a good enough sort, and well-regarded, so at least it didn't hurt as much as it could have to lose to him, but to lose to him by a hair's breadth... well, that smarted.
Life is learning to improve, I suppose. I've got some pretty clear-cut ones if I want to get better.
