Yesterday I was summoned from my free time to meet with the Lord Commander. Dame Eleanor rarely summons me, and I was sure I had done nothing wrong. And it was true! I have been promoted to Knight-Sergeant and given a duty assignment beyond just what gets assigned on rotation. I wish my mom and dad could see this.

I walked through the new Chivalric Arts academy that has been opened in Arx. It's a little amusing to have someone insist on announcing you with full titles and intent. I think some were disappointed that 'Tour' was what came after my name.

I had someone ask about my family this week. It made me realize the pain of their loss has faded to a dull ache; one I forget is there until something brings it up. It's been years since the Bringers of Silence came down from the North and took them all away from me. Years since I brought my village to Arx for safety. A safety that was fleeting given the siege. But more lived here than back home, so I call it a good choice.

It's been eight months since I was last in Arx. I never realized how much the Crownguard Tower had become home until I was spending so much time away from it. I can't even count how many gifts I need to get for those that had to endure my absence. But missions are missions.

Relationship Note on Flora

So glad we ran into one another again. Friends from the past, from home, aren't plentiful in Arx.

I have returned to Arx after months away. It feels like a homecoming. After traveling with my fellows to hear stories of Dayne, after escorting some others to the North and laying eyes on what was once our holding... Arx definitely feels like home.

I won't say that looking into the heroes of our past is an easy task. This would belittle the countless hours, days, weeks and even years that our dedicated scholars have put into uncovering even the smallest scraps of truth to the old legends. It is easy, however, to walk through the Hall of Heroes and see the poses the statues have been made in, or read the plaques, and become inspired by such small snippets.

There is nothing wrong with taking inspiration from the past and using it a goal, an ideal to pursue, a guiding light for the life you live now.

But we can't just fight for the past honors, the past glories, the past loves and victories. We have to live for our present and our future.

So this, my beloved Compact, is what I ask of you. Send me a messenger and let me know when we can talk. I want to hear from you. I want to hear what you love the most in this life. What would you fight for? What would you defend? What do you find joy and passion in? I want to hear about you. Commoner, noble, doesn't matter. I want to hear the stories of our Compact.

Yours in Service to the Crown,
Dame Imi Deadfall

Relationship Note on Alarissa

It has been nearly a week since I my legs were broken, and I'm starting to long for even something as monotonous as the Lord Commander's famed Tower Stair Drills. I am honored to have the a patron such as I do, though. Her Highness has ensured I have no end of reading material available to me. The rather extraordinary tales help pass the time. To think that a soldier and sailor could have such lives!

Relationship Note on Reese

You do not show your prowess and years of dedicated training, nor give praise to Gloria with your combat, if it with a stacked deck. If your friend cares for you, then they will come to see that and understand why you did what you did, Your Highness. Your glory is not made more radiant through such, but through your own struggles.

It's with great sadness that I have learned of Count Gailin's passing. I was never close with the Count or remember meeting him much at all, but he was Titania's husband and Leif's father. With both now back on the Wheel, my nephew must grow up knowing neither in his life. It's a lot of responsibility, to be an heir, and harder still to be one without the guidance of a loving parent. I know Kennex, as supportive as they were for me, will be no less for Leif.
