Relationship Note on Kael
For My Noble Mountain
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Sentiments are noble,
And so are you.
Orchids are white,
Ghost ones are rare,
Fog is thick,
And so is your hair.
Magnolia grows,
With buds like eggs,
Your system is muscular,
And so are your legs.
Sunflowers reach,
Up to the skies,
My sun is dazzling,
And so are your eyes.
Foxgloves in hedges,
Surround the farms,
Force is strong,
And so are your arms.
Daisies are pretty,
Daffies have style,
The way is boyish,
And so is your smile.
A mountain is beautiful,
Just like you

Relationship Note on Kael
Still. It does provide my healers with plenty of practice.
Kael showed so well this year! He endured to the final three, surviving warriors of near legendary renown. I am so very happy for him, despite the bruises cuts and overall aches he is going to have to deal with.
The final three.
I still dislike Grand Melees.

Relationship Note on Kael
What began with awkward glances and uncomfortable silences has grown into a powerful partnership, a devoted friendship and an unexpected romance. Marrying into Keaton has been one of the greatest changes in my life. I thank the gods daily for the life I have. The successes I have contributed to. I thank them for the best friend I have ever known. I thank them for providing me a fantastic father to my children. I thank them for the love of my life.
And I thank you, Marquis Kael Keaton. For being open to the possibility that we might share the same ideals. For being brave enough to trust me when I was still a stranger. For taking a chance on an unknown young lady and showing her through thoughtful words and deeds that she could trust you too.
My life began four years ago this day.
Limerance be praised.

Marquessa Reigna Keaton has been a steadfast and capable public figure since I have known her, and a willing teacher. She seems always ready to lend a hand, and not only to those of her fealty, but outside of it as well.
Finally, something that makes sense! I would send a present to mark the occasion, but they would just find a way to turn it back on me so graciously and charitably that I wouldn't even be able to complain!

There are few more-worthy of the honor bestowed upon the Keatons at the Assembly of Peers. May Oakhaven March long prosper.

I wish them all success in their efforts. And I look forward to adding my knowledge, to the extent I am able, as an instructor.

I think, instead, it will be me who is lucky to forge weapons for Aeryn, Talis and Kata, meant respectfully my lord. To be honored to put blades in the hands of another generation of Keatons is without description, and one I promise to do should I remain in this world long enough to do so.

"The colors of House Keaton are verdant green and black, though purple looks quite fair upon my wife. Green and purple? I will leave the matter to you and trust your good taste in this judgement in what will look best for the set."
It seems I have accidentally made purple an unofficial color for House Keaton because the Count likes how it looks upon his lovely wife, the Countess Reigna.
Both my sincerest apologies along with the hope that it might possibly prove to be an affectionate family anecdote in some way.

Not many years later, we are now staring in wonderment at the newest generation of Keatonlets. As of yesterday, I have become an Aunt for the fourth time. As we celebrate the birth of Lord Talis Keaton, I am still amazed that we are already preparing to groom the next generation.
The Count and Countess have been very diligent and efficient in manufacturing a steady stream of heirs for the family. If there is one thing I can say for Kael, it is that he is clearly a man of boundless energy.

I feel as though there must be some honor in me, if a man like Count Kael Keaton is willing to allow my assistance in his noble endeavor. It is my greatest desire not to let him down. To that end, I will be fundraising a substantial amount of silver to provide scholarships for those prospective warriors and knights from the Lowers who wish to enroll in Count Keaton's Academy of War and may not have the tuition to do so. These people are no less heroic, no less brave for their lack of coin. They are deserving and I can think of no finer example to give them of all that they may become than the Count of Keaton.
But this is not something I can do on my own.

Relationship Note on Kael
I am a noble and the course of my life was not mine to pick. I thought that perhaps I would be able to find that freedom. To lay down my responsibility, surrender my name and embrace a future full of my own choices. To take command of my decisions. To be Reigna Godsworn.
And yet that future, that path was veered from. And in its place a new path was taken. Perhaps not one I would have picked, but one that I did choose. I chose to honor my family. I chose to embrace my duty, my responsibility instead of picking what I *wanted*. I chose to serve.
And in so doing, I made the single best choice of my life. By following my duty, by fulfilling the honor of my House, by denying the selfish impulse to follow my desires over duty, I was wed to Kael Keaton, Count of Oakhaven.
It was difficult. For both of us, at first. We met at the Shrine of Limerance where we signed our contacts. I walked back with him to the Valardin Ward and into a room at the Sleepless Knight, strangers. Unspeaking. The adjustment from being a singular I and turning into a We was not something that happened right away. Communication takes time. But from the first, we found in one another, a mutual appreciation of the importance of duty, a responsibility to work for the success of the people of Oakhaven. An acknowledgement that success built at the foundation might take longer, but yields a more stable and sustainable future. As we spoke, as we recognized the dreams we had in common, as we became united in our goals we became united as a couple. Responsibility and duty became... the greatest love I have ever known.
He is my greatest friend. My most trusted ally. He is the foundation upon which I stand. With him I am secure. I am proud. I am fierce. With him I look forward and into the future.
He is my husband. He is the greatest treasure in my life. These two years as his wife have been the most remarkable of my life.
We are Keaton.
