Relationship Note on Willow

When we speak I am reminded of the great differences between your leadership style and my cousins, not Lydia, but Nadia. It was a different world then and things have changed so much during that time.

In this changing landscape I am well pleased that you are still with us to keep us always moving forwards and looking out for us.

Relationship Note on Willow

Incense cedar, elderberry,
scattered chapels of willow trees.
Graygreen leaves tremble like
my beggar's palms

on the branches, waxing
resinous in sunlight,
lingering with warmth in plenty,

here, now, an afternoon
in folded grass and golden pyres,
of bracken under broken

granite, lucid sky. Stillness after
the ache of love and heave
of summer while you,
my lady,
dream within your chapel of willow.

How much braver is the woman who would face such monsters without the benefit of combat training in order to protect those in need?

But is that not the very crux of this argument?

You know precisely where these unmannered, uncultured shavs stand: they make no false pretense of being a friend and cutting you at the knee. Is that not --better--? I pose that it is.

You were not even that bad. I mean, only slight debauchery.

At least you weren't the one to fall asleep at the bar mid story.

Both.

Not that it is a wholly terrible thing. As many stories are written of folly as virtue.

You must feel so if you responded to me in the whites to tell me. It is lovely to have good friends that you can trust. I wish I'd appreciated mine more, spent more time with her, before it was too late.

Relationship Note on Willow

Shamanism is not in any way comparable to /owning people/.

Shamanism is only still allowed if it goes hand in hand with belief and instruction in the Faith. There were crusades fought over it. And it's not as though the majority of those thralls, the war-thralls taken by raiding Abandoned villages, had a tradition of being slaves before they were thrown into servitude and their tribe and families were torn apart.

Traditions are not valuable just for being traditions. If they were, the Compact wouldn't force new Prodigals to constantly give them up. And a tradition of slavery is not worth mourning just because it's been practiced for so damned long.

I often save high praise for those who are truly deserving. From the moment we met, I knew we would become fast friends. Little did I know this would be trouble but it is the best sort of trouble I know.

The very position that all lives are sacred and equal is one that makes any act of slavery inexcusable.

Willow your quote speaks to the very actions of my whole life.

Willow named me the Minister of Defense of Stonedeep. What an incredible honor. I hope I can make the family proud in my new position.

I thought to write to you for the permissions, but then I thought as well that others may have the same inquiry. For which I say, that I am blessed that you have found my research worth while and of course, all that I do, I do for the sake of spreading knowledge. Take what you will. And anything you find needs further elaborated on, we could arrange a meeting.

You must let me know what you think as well, yes.

I promise, you were never going to prevent this, no matter how many ransoms you paid. These people want only one thing out of this issue, and that's to keep thralls from ever being freed, and to be able to continue to make as many thralls as they want, without interference. This is why they got angry when the Liberators bought and freed thousands, despite following every one of their rules. This is why they murdered a freed man well before Brass ever showed his face. This is why they butchered an entire village and a Peer.

For the people doing this, thralldom isn't just a means to an end. Thralldom /is/ the end. And unless you let them have that, turn your back and let all those people remain enslaved forever, you're their enemy and they'd kill you as easily as they've killed everyone else.

I woke up and my head aches, my limbs heavy and throat dry. I'm not sure what parts of today were dreams and reality.

I think that is a clear indicator that Lady Willow Nightgold holds the best parties.

Sounds quite the excellent the excellent book, you shall have to also get through it to d for dupion. A thicker spun silk and wool blend that, truly, plays more with the colours as the wool waft alongside a fine silk is a beautiful blend. You must seek out these clothes two that supposedly blend silver, gold or bronze itself into the fibres.

But yes, one would not wish to busy the fabric too much with a pattern or embroidery on top. Fine picks of gemstones would only do.

I, for one, can tell you what it is. That finely woven double strand silk produces such a subtle, and beautiful, colour change in well lit conditions. One in the warp, another in the weft. The time it takes, quite worth if for a truly luxurious shirt or lining.

The Gilded Page is extremely honored to host the work of Lady Willow Nightgold in the cultural stacks. 'Of Elves and Men' is an insightful tome, as brilliant as the Lady whose hand penned it, and sure to give a better understanding to those who are fortunate enough to borrow it from the library.

Cousin Willow's cat is quite the huntress, unfortunately I don't think the tavern keeper at The Spirits would appreciate it if said cat at a live rabbit in the middle of the bar.
