Relationship Note on Mirari

<this journal entry is a charcoal drawing of Mirari Corsetina in her armor as Sword of Lenosia. Exceptional effort is taken to make the subject look as awe-inspiring as possible... or maybe that's just how the artist sees her cousin naturally.>

I'm glad that painting is gone. It doesn't bother me as much when I don't have it near me.

Relationship Note on Mirari

I missed Mirari's dinner. I hope she's not mad at me.

So many people upset about worshipping one of the gods.


Is it because we don't like seeing the things a mirror shows us?

<this journal is just a doodle of the sun rising over the Bay of Thrax, with the Carlotta in the background. The ship seems to have captured her attention, given how much detail she put into it.>

Relationship Note on Mirari

I think Mirari's going to ask me where I've been all of this time. I wish I could remember. Maybe I'll try to paint it?

She's upset. I don't want her to be upset.

Dearest Mother,

I had another vision! Oh, it was my best set of paintings thus far, a triptych sold to Lady Carita Darkwater. I'm not sure why everyone kept complaining about the content. I made a small sculpture for Princess Alis as well, and two paintings for Marquis Ford. People know me now! And they ask for my paintings!

Sorry I haven't written in a while, it's been a busy few weeks. I promise to write every week, if I can. Love you!

Dearest Mother,

I think I'm beginning to settle in, now. Living with Mirari and Mailys, painting and sketching every day, selling some of my sketches and giving others away. I'm working on my sewing as well, but I don't really want to be a tailor - just to fix my own things as I need to.

I want to find my next big painting. The sunset on the cathedral took a few days, but I love it. What will I paint next? I'm not really sure.

Dearest Mother,

The city is so big and exciting and full of people! I even met a few knights!

I painted the Cathedral yesterday. It's still drying, but I'm really proud of it. I hung it in Mailys and Mirari's shop, maybe someone will buy it. I wish you could see it.

Dearest Mother,

We're supposed to dock at Arx today. I'm so excited! A whole city of new people and new things to paint! I painted a portrait of the ship captain on the way... he seemed disappointed. I don't know why, I thought it made him look handsome! He asked if I'd do something special for him - what's more special than painting?

I still have the directions you gave me to Casa di Corsetina. I hope our cousins are nice. I hope the city is nice. Maybe I'll see the King - ooh, I wonder if he needs a portrait painted? Oh, if I could paint the King, that would be the best ever!

Oh, we're docking! Love you!
