Blessed Lagoma, lady of changes, be with me and my family as we undertake the largest change to ever -- change us.
My sister is now the Countess-Consort to a house of Prodigals. And as fully endorsed by the Faith, it is charged that they come to learn of the Pantheon and embrace the Gods. And they intend to do so and I intend to see to it that it comes to pass as well as being able to help them grow financially. I'm a spiritual person no doubt, and raised in the holy faith of Sanctum and though I'm not what one would call Orthodox, I'm very traditionalist.
So please, Lagoma, help me with all these change to come.

Relationship Note on Harper
I do try not to comment in regards to journals written by others (it feels so very odd to be intruding on the thoughts and words of another person!) but scones are delightful. Slightly crispy outside, fluffy inside, and a treat when served right from the oven with the butter melting and the jam cold in contrast. I'd be more than happy to make anyone some biscuits or scones if they came by the Sleepless Knights.

Relationship Note on Margerie
Oh scholar, what exciting news I have to report.
The excellent Lady Margerie has decided to honor my by taking me as a protege. She's so very gracious and eloquent and I aspire to do right by her. I will strive to make her proud of her decision.

Nearly every day someone dear to me asks 'How are your plans for your tavern coming along'? Or 'What will you name it?' Gild be good, but those are such hard questions to answer. So I'll answer here and let the Whites record my exciting endeavors.
I want it somewhere in the Crown district, which makes it trickier as I'd likely need a noble sponsor to intervene with the Crown for the rights to lease the land. And seeing as there's nowhere near there to stay I know of, I'd likely want it near the Cathedral and the Shrines, for those making pilgrimages or seeking somewhere peaceful and quiet to stay but with the comforts of a simple country inn.
I want a garden patio with a little fountain, and a cowshed with a dairy and a little vegetable garden. And I'd want it two stories, so I can sleep above it and have nice cozy rooms for guests to rent. A kitchen. A large pantry with a water-sink to keep things cool. And then a nice big common room with a bar and cozy tables and perhaps a fireplace with couches nearby.
It's a -lot-. So the funding to start such a thing will take quite some time to put together on a simple barmaid's salary. I suppose I could gather investors but I'd hate to be obligated to somebody.
As for a name? Perhaps Gods' Grace, or Country Hearth. Either sounds absolutely dreamy.

Dearest Lord of Wisdom, receive my words for posterity.
For every thing that I find intimidating and scary about Arx City, there's something equally beautiful and comforting to turn to. Sometimes I regret leaving the family farm and the tavern I grew up in. But then things can happen here which make it all worthwhile. A shining if frightening future.

How very vexing to find out my beloved cousin has made a vow to Limerance to marry a woman I've never met (let alone knew he was courting) and to find out about it because the one person he had witness it decided to write a journal to commemorate it.
They're not getting a cake from me.
And I guess I'm not getting Granda's ring from him.

Relationship Note on Alaric
Oh praise Petrichord, I won a goat! A sweet little adorable green eyed goat named Butterfly. She seems to be gloomy but I adore her. All my work with Ma's goats at home have paid off. Now I have a source for goat cheese, when she gets older of course!
I also won perfume in a raffle! I haven't had the occasion to wear it but perhaps someday.
I also met the King and he's the most wonderful person. He promised to come by the Knights for some biscuits someday. I really hope he does, he's just the most delightful person in all of Arx.

Vellechor bless and keep this entry into his sacred archives. I know I wrote one when I first came to Arx but my duties have kept me busy.
So much to say and goodness me if I don't feel a little silly not doing this sooner when my memories are fresh. I always wonder 'Is this worth recording' but the voices of great and small all echo the same in the God's ears so...
My sister is here, sweet Paige. So grown up and full of adventure. We sleep in the same hallway at the Inn and yet her duties keep her so busy I rarely see her. And Jonathan too, since his da's farm burned and whatnot, he had nothing left at home so he came here.
I knew this was where I needed to be if I ever wanted my own tavern someday so here I am too. I've made so many lovely connections and met handsome princes and sweet princessess and nobles of all ranks, as well as very gallant knights and charming rogues.
It's like living in the middle of a story.

I suppose this is tradition, to record your thoughts in the archives on your first visit to Arx.
Gild bless, it's so BIG. I mean, really really big. The city blocks are bigger than my entire village! And the Sleepless Knights is so beautiful and huge inside. I feel like a tiny mouse inside a house. Guess I better watch out for cats, haha.
I'm excited to start my new job and new life. How else can one find their destiny unless they go looking for it? Gods watch over me and bless me as I seek mine.

Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
