Relationship Note on Drake
But it is still your fault. I shall get your brother to examine them and tell him how Lord Drake led me to be bitten.
It is a worthy tale and should be recorded in a book somewhere.

Relationship Note on Thea

Since Prism asked for our promises I have found myself thinking more on the subject of slavery and freedom. We've been asked to break the chains and forgive, but how far should our forgiveness go? Should we forgive the slavers who show no remorse for what they did? We have promised Prism without much thought. I wonder how many had thought of ending slavery before Prism asked us too.
I also wonder about who will be fought. Will the people of Eurus send battle hardened soldiers? Or will they be slaves with no free will in this fight? Also, does making the Eurus kneel to us take away their freedoms?
My house has promised to end slavery and we will aid where we can. I just hope that with all this fever and excitement for action that we can also take a moment to breathe and think twice before our passion consume us.

Relationship Note on Thea
While I don't know if the nanny appreciated the muddy sugar filled toddler who was climbing the curtains, Ginny on the other hand has spent the day screaming for Thea and Finn.
All should send their children to her for the day.

Of late, I've equated my life to that of the spinning top. That I spin out of control and with all those bright garish colors flashing across my eyes, so that even when I close them, those colors still startle across my mind and leave me trying to grasp each experience individually. I can feel those knots in my stomach and my head ache even as I write this.
There is so much going on right now, and perhaps I am young, naive and inexperienced. Perhaps I am trying to hold onto anything that resembles normalcy for dear life. Perhaps these experiences will be for the better, rather than another experience that leaves me sick to my stomach.
Perhaps.

I cry because my curiosity almost injured people I care about.
I cry for what was found.
But I mostly cry for the missed chance of redemption. None of us come into the world evil. As we grow, opportunities and experiences change us. The option for greed and corruption. The lure of power, it is all there and are put in front of us as temptations. Some people can't resist. Some are forced to take that road. But, we should always offer redemption. Our hand should always be open to help someone find their way back.
When we steal someone's chance of redemption, does it put us on the path of corruption too?

Legate Ailith introduced me to sweet ginger candies and mint tied in my handkerchiefs. it certainly helped with the nausea. Well some.

To the anonymous gift giver. The one who favored my house. I want to thank you. The kindness and generosity has left me speechless and dumbfounded. As did the masterful work of master Behtuk.
Thank you.

Tonight I was told something new. Part of being a noble is to protect those who need it. To speak up against injustice and cruelty. I would of thought that would be part of being human. That when we look into the mirror, when we examine our true selves, are we happy with what we see? Are you content with your actions? Your words? Have you made life better for those considered below your station?
So I ask, are you happy with your choices?

While the snow had not disappeared, I watched her marvel at the splendor that is the wilderness. I saw her pick up all manner of leaves and twigs. She took to patting and chasing any animal that came close enough.
I enjoyed watching the shamans give her blessings and for her to be welcomed by the people. Part of me yearned to stay there for longer. To enjoy the simplicity of life and enjoy the calm the forest brings me but, there is work to still do and I am needed in the city.

Any who know me, knows how much I have changed in a year, on reflection it takes my breath away. I came from house Leary, with the blessing of the faith, believing I would spend my days scouting without care. That being a Countess-Consort would be no different from being a lady. I was quickly shown how wrong I would be.
Instead, I spend my days with ledgers, I hide in the library with maps and project ideas. I hear the complaints of my people and how I can try to improve their lives. I have gone on more diplomatic missions and events than I ever thought I would. I have had a child, one I adore to the ends of the world, and lands that I ache to go visit.
Within a year, I have fallen head over heels in love with my new home. With the snow and the trees. With how the smell of campfires always carries on the breeze, from the tribes that remain near Bonespire. How within days of moving, for the first time I felt accepted for who I was and encouraged to be more. For that, I am eternally grateful.
I am so thankful for Lady Volcica who became my sister, to Lord Arik who helped settle me in my early days and guide me on this path, and finally, to Marquis Magnus, My husband, who saw I belonged at Bonespire before I could see it myself, who supports my ideas and choices, who has encouraged me to find my voice.
What a difference a year makes.

It seems quite comedic that I am now forced to sit still and fill my days with books. I hate it. The blue skys mock me. The laughter on the breeze and the people running past. It seems so cruel. The books are so dull. How can people learn from these? I wonder if there is a more fun way to learn when stuck in a library with hovering guards?

Relationship Note on Miranda
It was like a breath of fresh air. I forgot how much I love exploring. Even if dreadful moths live in scanty lycene panties.
Plus, Lady Mikani said something about worshipping alcohol. Or maybe spirits. I'm pretty sure she meant alcohol. I think that alone needs further investigation.
