To have the aid of so clever and honorable a Whisper, I am hopeful we can find a solution.

Relationship Note on Natalia
It's only fitting to acknowledge my gracious employer in this first journal. She's dealt me a more than fair hand and I will not forget it. Even if she is 'strongly encouraging' me to put words here. I have her to thank for this new home and new experiences. The good and the bad. Don't know what else to write. She makes clothes. You should buy them.

If one is so concerned about whether or not one's white journal is being read, then perhaps one should not allow the ink to stain the page in the first place. Some things never change.

Relationship Note on Natalia
I was tapped by Vern to come and visit the Archive and look at a few entries that he had pulled for my benefit. You see, my protege, Natalia Whisper, was involved. These last few weeks have been exceptionally busy and I have not had the opportunity to do my duty and write in the journals as I should. Plus, if I am being forthright, often times it is difficult to put quill to parchment and express my thoughts and feelings sufficiently. Nonetheless, in this instance, I will attempt to do so.
I have no comment on Lady Crovane's entry at this time. I will have it pulled to review at a later time in my leisure.
I have no particular comment to make in my whites concerning the nobles that have engaged with my protege. It is their right to pen whatever it is that they wish, to read whatever entries they wish, and so on.
What I must comment on, however, is the 'disgraced former nobility.' Or, specifically, denobled Natalia. Yes, this point is true. It was also forthrightly admitted to me, by Natalia, in what I believe was a warning for concern of my own social standing.
However, this is the woman of the past and who she is now is Natalia Whisper. It is a dishonor to the esteemed Whisper House to paint her as an object for scorn when she is a member of their fine organization. She is a chairman within the institution of the Academy of War. She already has aided House Keaton, and the Compact, in becoming stronger. If I am not mistaken, she has been within Arx approximately six months. Look at what she has accomplished in this time. I certainly would not dismiss her.
I, for one, am honored to find our arms clasped.

There is no one in the Compact more aware of the flaws and faults in Natalia Whisper's past than Natalia Whisper herself. She has done her penance for them, paid her price - and Whisper House took her in, because she earned her spot here.
She continues to earn her spot here, every day, through fantastic, unending, rigorous work. I stand fully behind her, publicly. She has every right to express the opinions she does, and the woman she has become is one of the people I value most highly.
I had similar thoughts about Lady Clara Crovane's writings. I, frankly, do not see the point in them - since she has asked for opinions, I will provide mine here. The points she made were trite ones, lessons to be hung on a wall and recited to children, conclusions that anyone with a working mind would be able to come to in an instant.
As for any specific thoughts about humility, well, the Legate has beaten me to writing about the matter in regard to the Faith, so I will simply say this:
We do not venerate the humble. We are not the spawn of those who have forgiven and forgotten. Each and every House has their pride in their values, and those values are what have driven us so far.
I am a proud woman, and will never cease to be - for it is making sure that I can back that up that is one of my main motivators for excellence.

I'm another noble that reads your journals. However I'd like to think that I'm doing it for reasons that aren't completely odd, for we've at least met in person previously.
For those who read /my/ whites, I would like them to note that I've had the honor of working with Natalia Whisper on a matter for Count Keaton. She has impressed me as being remarkably brave, cool under pressure and capable of extraordinary leadership in the face of dangerous circumstances.
Perhaps those who feel the need to "punch down" as Archlector Aureth so eloquently puts, should choose something else to do with their time.

"But when you respond remain humble, remain respectful." From the initial journal entry in question.
Irony is ripe, given your initial response. All I will say on the matter.

Someone is particularly aggressive about having the attention of the white journals placed on her. This most certainly must be another attempt to start an argument over something minor.

Perhaps I was too quick to assume that, with the flurry of Empyrean-directed posts, you were referencing the Empyrean in your last journal.
If that's not the case, I do apologize.

Though I have been in Arx for close to two years now, I had never taken the time to visit Whisper House. There was an endeavor of mine that I sought assistance with and though I initially was uncertain, I found myself pleasantly surprised with the result of the conversation. If you ever have a project that you wish advice on, or perhaps aid, please do yourself a favor and visit Whisper House. Or at least call upon Natalia Whisper.

There's a pouch where I keep two rings. They have the same inscription. They represented happy memories. A time gone by.
In my wardrobe hangs dresses. Fine gifts. And yet my heart aches when I look at them.
I wish her the best. I hope she finds what she was looking for.
I wish I could share her triumphs and comfort her in her sorrows.
I miss the sister I had.

Relationship Note on Natalia
As Her Royal Highness Natalia Grayson has confirmed in her latest White Journal entry, I have the obligation to announce that our courtship has been ended on mutual agreement. I am quite saddened that she has chosen to word me as she did, and I would like to apologize to her for any anger the way we ended our terms might have brought to Her Royal Highness. I fear that it was not meant to be and I am confident that she will have the luck to finding someone who will be much better than I, much more qualified than I, and that will know how to appreciate the many gifts she has more than I did. Sometimes these matters don't work, unfortunately.
Gallantly, and like the noble person I am, I also open my door to her should she ever need my help in the future, though I politely request that she gives us some time to heal the wounds that rupture can bring. I am not a resentful man; everything that comes out of my mouth is nothing but truth.
