Relationship Note on Reigna
I have avoided writing in my journals since I was told. I know that you would call me foolish if you heard such a thing, give a fine lesson on why it was my duty, and so on. I can close my eyes and almost hear your voice.
Today I shared the story of how we named our Aeryn and found afterward I was daydreaming of more pleasant times. I remembered your anniversary gift to me, the copy of your black journal entries. Except when I went to read them I could not find them. The panic, Reigna. The panic. It was as though my chest was crushed and I could not breathe.
I tore apart our chambers looking and thankfully found them hidden in the drawer of my wardrobe, right beneath that tunic you gave me for the White Ball. For a half breath it was as if I lost you again. It was only after my heart stopped being audible in my ears that I realized it was time to write again.

What can I possibly write about Marquessa Reigna Keaton that would do her even a small measure of justice? Her kindness is a thing of legends. A woman of staunch beliefs and morals, she stood ready to entertain and debate the ideas of others. She respected opinions and viewpoints even if they were not her own. She always seemed to have a glimmer in her eyes - an energy of positive thinking in the bleakest of moments. There were no setbacks, just points to learn from and try again in another way. I wish I could put to parchment the amazing experiences I was blessed to have alongside the Marquessa, from simple discussions about commissions to extraordinary adventures. She was a warm and welcoming fire in a dimming world, and I will miss her presence among us.

There is not much that I can say other than I am completely saddened by your loss. You led an extraordinary life and were something to look up to and emulate. I certainly looked up to you, but we all know I cannot hold a candle to your healing flame. May you be cared for in Lagoma's embrace and under the guidance of the Queen of Endings to be returned to us upon new beginnings.

Wise raven, clever raven
Fly swift, and fly free
Find those that are lost
Bring the lost home to me.
Wise raven, clever raven
Look far and look low
Find those that are lost
Lead them back through the snow.
Wise raven, clever raven
If the lost can't return
Lead the lost to their rest
As you'll lead us in turn.

I regret her loss and the fact that we never did get that dinner.
She is with the Queen now.
It's strange... one of my first thoughts is that one by one we lose the people in this city who remember Brother Tomwell as the bright
-hearted diplomatist he is.

I had a conversation yesterday and I mentioned the recent quiet in the city makes me uneasy and the longer it is, the more I fear of what will come at its end. It took less than 10 hours for the news of the Marquessa's death to reach the city. I should have never spoken.
While we were never close, I will always remember her as one of the first to welcome me to the city with open arms, giving me my first physician's robe that while others since moved to other designs remained with me to this very day. Her guidance and tutelage and her blessed talent is robbed from me and others and the city as a whole.
May she find peace and her family solace and strength to carry on.

Are people not free to make their own choices? Is it not the will of Skald that everyone should be empowered to forge their own destiny?
If offering the people of Arx a choice is theft, are they then property? Has the Marquessa of Keaton become a proponent of Slavery?
I'm sure none of us want to see people suffer in vain and House Seraceni are trying to do their part in sharing of what they have, just like I too will attempt to do my part in ensuring the people of Arx will have their deserved opportunities for food and work.

I'm sure I've written this before, and I guess I'm going to write it again now: I have struggled with my creativity lately. The stories don't come as easily as they used to, and the ones that do, don't feel as deep as before. I've started to wonder if my best work is all behind me. It's a scary thought, can't lie. I shared these concerns with Marquessa Reigna, when a commission was mentioned, and her advice was pretty profound in it's deceiving simplicity: do something different. Wildly create something in a new or different way. And with those words in mind, I managed to forge a sword that is all warm hues and echoes of the forest. The theme wasn't one I came up with, but looking at it differently and trying to work in hints of pale gold - which I haven't done before with these particular shades - created something I was proud to put my mark on.
Sometimes people end up creating the change we need, just when we need it.

The whole of that village was changed by the steel in your tone and eyes when you called out the corruption of their 'elder' to lay it bare in front of their duped faces, then saw to it that real justice was paid swift and hard. The menfolk may have chased down that murderer and hauled him forth with his pants soiled as much as his soul, no doubt, but the people of that hamlet will remember the sympathetic, empathetic healer turned steely-voiced champion.
It was, as usual, a matter of pride and pleasure to ride at your side as your Sword.
Amari and I will likely be attending their first festival, when they have it, as... guests of honor, of a sort. Perhaps you will deign join us, should it happen.

No, my lady. It is never a failure in and of itself to change irrevocably. To be transformed. Gold is the metal associated with Lagoma and change, and its strength is in being reshaped. And reshaped. But still gold, ah? Still gleaming. Still precious. Even wounds need not make us less.

Relationship Note on Reigna
In my time since coming to Arx, I have encountered one person who is to me the exemplar of all the highest ideals of the medical profession. Her skill in mending others is a wonder to behold, her knowledge of the healing arts a marvel, her sense of duty transcends mere conscientiousness. When the terrible blight came into Arx on the slavers' ship and afflicted so many, she worked beyond the edge of exhaustion to treat all its victims, whether foreigner or friend. Indeed she has had faith in me where many others would surely have hesitated to trust one of my heritage, and it has been only through her trust and assistance that I have been able to serve the sick and the wounded of Arx to even so small a degree as I can claim. But however great my own gratitude, it can only pale beside that of the many scores of people whom she has helped, within the city and beyond.
In short, I cannot imagine anyone filling the role of an Assistant Crown Minister in the field of health with greater capability, compassion, or care than Marquessa Reigna Keaton.

Congratulations to one of my closest of friends, even though we have been far too busy and not spent much time together as of late. Named Assistant Minister of Civil Development - Department of Health, there is no one who could be better fit for such a position in my opinion. As she does in everything, Marquessa Reigna Keaton will excel in this.
