Relationship Note on Braden
My dear sir,
You were always so very kind and polite to me. Your courtesy was far beyond others of your ilk. It seemed to come from your very being, not merely a nod to propriety or learned behaviors. You worried so at doing the right thing and being dutiful to your House and your honour. You were given such a bad turn and yet you still tried to rise.
When you spoke of your terrible loss, my heart was very saddened, and to be true, I was afraid for you. When you said you would avenge your family's death I knew such words would not be turned from and that in this the dangers were very real. And yet, you were so determined to do right by them.
And now, so it seems you have tried to show honor in keeping your word, and so it seems the worst has happened as feared.
I will miss our talks and your charming cheer even when you felt darkest. I will miss how earnest you were in trying to do right. I will miss that desire to truly become a good and worthy knight. The love of your family and House and the hope of doing great things.
I fear we have lost something as a compact in this. That such promise was snuffed out by things so very unnecessary that drove a young man to seek his death far too soon. I pray all the circumstances that drove you to this terrible end never happen again. For if so, then we have failed in our own nobility and chivalry and it is we who are, in truth, dishonored. And, with all that we must face and do as a city and realm, I pray that this will not be so.
Rest well, sir. The Gods know you have earned it.

I was sorry to hear about this. Maybe next turn of the wheel we get time for more than just the one spar.

Ah, hell. Rest well, then. The children of Arx have one less guardian to help them through a snowstorm.

I called you Lord Silk Tongue because of how easy it seemed for you to give a compliment. Something I wish I were better at. It was a rough deal and a rough road you traveled. I hope you find your way home.

What a way to go. I believe it not. You knew the roads to Acorn Hill like you knew the palm of your hand.
I refuse to believe you just got lost, I refuse to believe you just died. I think you just found a better place for you.
If you did then, I am happy for you and will mourn you no longer, beloved Cousin.

Which notice on the noticeboard where challenges are issued am I pay attention to, Nobleman.
The one where you say whatever and throw a gauntlet down or the one where you meekly ask for forgiveness?

To be quite clear, I have never heard of any claims of poverty within the Laurents before. By all accounts, Artshall is doing quite well and Duke Cristoph pays his family a generous and fair allowance, as well as there being multiple opportunities where Lord Braden could find work.
So I am not quite certain what he is doing with all this money that renders him so miserably poor, but it is surely not the fault of his family.
Distressing that he is attempting to deny a living to others on top of it.

Challenge accepted, my Lord!
But will you accept defeat when it comes?

I was trudging through the snow to the Bank when I toppled face-first into a snowdrift. Just my luck, a Lord was there to see it. He offered his help, even though he was already assisting some lost children in finding their way home... but even more importantly, he looked the other way when I made an ass of myself in front of him. I truly hope he and the children enjoyed the candy.

Lord Laurent is a formidable opponent. Even if he started off easy with me. I hoped I proved myself a worthy opponent.
If not. My still numb fingertips were all in vain.
