Relationship Note on Saverio

Five years of patronship has come to an abrupt stop and I admit, despite the title, it was you who taught me more than I could ever imagine and far exceeding anything I had to offer you.

I find myself lost in your absence, a ship with no lighthouse, sailing without a destination.

Perhaps we shall meet again on the next turn of the wheel.

Relationship Note on Saverio

Though my marriage to Count Saverio Redreef, nee Lord Saverio Inverno, lasted only a month before his passing, our courtship carried on both formally and informally for some four years. In that time, the man who would become my husband saw in me things about me that I did not recognize, and helped me to see them in myself as well. That is what I will forever remember about him: his ability to keenly perceive that which others did not.

In those years of knowing him, only once did I ever see fear or dread cross his features. Only once did I ever see him surprised or awestruck. Those times were not the same incident, either. Even when he faced down death as a monstrous wolf attacked his new family in the Redreef Estate, he did not show fear. He fought for his life and nearly succeeded in besting the creature that killed him. It was not enough, but had his life not been sacrificed, a half-dozen members of my family would surely have died as well.

Count Saverio mostly infuriated and vexed me. He always knew the perfect thing to say to set me off-kilter, or pierce a weak point in my armor that I didn't even realize was there. He could always notice what others didn't. I doubt that I will ever know another person who will ever be so capable of so effortlessly making me angry to the degree that Count Saverio made me angry. There was grace and talent in the way he seemed to not even need to try.

I don't have anything else to write. He's dead now. He was torn in half at the waist, in front of me, and I hugged the top half of his body to myself as the world spun around me. Then the world stopped spinning, and now I must continue on with things without him. In that, he's found one last and perfect way to make me livid.

Relationship Note on Saverio

It is done.

I am a married woman.

If the wedding night was productive, then within a year I will be a mother.

I thought that I would be disturbed by how different I would feel. Instead, I am disturbed by how I do not feel different at all. I have changed my life in many profound ways, these last few years, and this should have been the most profound of them all. Why does it not feel so?

Perhaps I should take heart that regardless of marriage, regardless of maternity, I am still myself, as I know the concept.

Relationship Note on Saverio

Let the Great Archives forever retain this record of my truthful testimony: My betrothal to Lord Saverio Inverno is in no way a love match.

Save your applause, reader. I need no special commendations.

What a delightful event held at Saikland Greens by Lady Medeia.
I was surprised to find my esteemed protege there and spend a night learning of Lycene games and pushing boundries.
I do adore people who take me out of my comfort zone.

That you consider me clever like you is but a compliment of the highest esteem. Your profound knowledge on choice topics has allowed me to see you in a different light. Unlike a moth to your flame, I am an ember, inspired to burn brightly.
