Relationship Note on Nicia

It did not occur to me that Jonathan and Cassander would end up being so close in age. Pregnancy does tend to narrow one’s focus, I find.

I’m glad they will grow up together, and if Cassander ends up setting an example for Jonathan...I’m sorry.

Relationship Note on Nicia

I couldn't possibly ask for a more capable, well grounded and talented spouse. We'll be approaching our second wedding anniversary this winter and it feels like that time went by with a snap of my fingers. I know that there were eyes turned on us when we announced a Laurent-Pravus marriage betrothal. And I can't help but feel incredibly satisfied (perhaps smug is the right word) with how everything has gone so far, she's never failed us, me or this family. I love her dearly.

Relationship Note on Nicia

I attended the masquerade at the Menagerie this week with my wife. Three years ago when it was first held, I attended with Nicia. It was our first public outing together at the very beginning of our courtship, when we were just feeling out if this was going to work. It was incredibly busy this year and I'm glad to see that it was so well received again.

I admit that after we were eliminated from the dancing competition, we ducked out to somewhere more private so we didn't see the conclusion of the event. But there was something romantic about sitting in the amphitheater and enjoying some wine, especially with no one else around but our memories. I can hardly believe that's been so long already.

Cheers to another year.

Relationship Note on Nicia

I did not have the opportunity to get to know Nicia when she was a Pravus noblewoman but now that she is married to my cousin, Duke Cristoph Laurent, and is family by marriage, I am truly humbled and blessed to say we are becoming fast friends. She is intelligent and witty; sharp as a tack. It should also go without saying Duchess Laurent is drop dead gorgeous. I am sure Cristoph did not stand a chance against her. Besides, it's oh so good that he's chosen his bride from the Lyceum.

Relationship Note on Nicia

Several weeks ago my wife took charge of House Laurent's involvement with the Kennex relief efforts. This was accomplished through contacting the appropriate people and then choosing which resources of ours were to be committed and all the other finer details. The results so far seem to be largely positive and I'm glad to have such a capable partner in running the duchy.

Relationship Note on Nicia

I don't often use the white journals as a place to discuss my personal life. But a marriage is more than just an event that occurs between two people, at least in the world that I come from. It's a joining of two houses, two families. A pooling of resources to the betterment of others beyond yourself.

This week I experienced what was without a doubt one of the best moments of my life, but also, somehow, among the scariest. Nicia Pravus agreed to be my wife and my life partner. I have the utmost faith that she will be one of the greatest duchesses that House Laurent has ever seen. She's a brilliant woman, eloquent and brave. And I don't think there was a better choice for myself or family than her.

Though I may be biased.

A great thank you to everyone that came to our small ceremony, we look forward to seeing you at the reception as well.

Fret not, darling cousin, I have something in mind for you. It will take me a little while to put it all together, but soon enough we shall have you in a frock that will have all the jaws dropping. You are so very lovely.

Also, and this really should have been the first thing I said -- I am so very glad to see you again too. Some of my fondest memories of childhood were the games we used to play.

She may do well here. It's good to have another peer on the bar.
