I wish we had had more time.

I rode for Artshall the moment I received news of what happened. I will spend a few days here helping start the process of rebuilding.

Then I will visit my mother and my children.

Then I will return to Arx and start showing those who would harm my family and my people what happens when they cross the kin of Jonathan Baseborn.

We could sing it back at them. If you can make it catchy enough, it'll get stuck in their heads. Revenge is ours.

I suppose I will have to put some balls of thread near the entry to the Manse, so that hapless guests will not get lost and subsequently burst into flames.

Relationship Note on Cristoph

When I asked Rupert where my brother was, and he told me he was at the chariot race, I didn't know he meant that he was actually going to be participating.

But he won, so I can't be too annoyed.

Relationship Note on Sedna

There are several functional differences between a curved blade and a straight one that more experienced fighters than I can describe.

But my personal favorite is that a curved blade is less likely to get inconveniently stuck in the body of your enemy.

I've joined the Templars as a Disciple. I had been considering it for some time, but the murders of my husband and sisters seemed like an appropriate catalyst. I sincerely hope that I serve them well, as the Templar order has been a firm ally of House Laurent for a long time.

Relationship Note on Tyren

He was an amazing father. He was calm and patient and kind and smart. I never in a million years expected to outlive him. He was the careful one.

He died protecting our children from the assassins that attacked us at Artshall. He got them to safety, though he lost his life in the process. When I found them, it was too late to save him.

He had suffered so much loss before we married. I think we were able to bring him some happiness again, the children and I. But he deserved more.

You did everything within your power. No one can reasonably ask for more than that.

Do you people read these?

I'm coming for you.

Why do you and Uncle Norwood do this? Why can't you just have a few nice, easy, low-key rescues?

Little Cassander is so much like me, I almost feel bad for him. I hope and pray he has not inherited /every/ aspect of my temperament.

Relationship Note on Mabelle

Once again my cousin has brought a project to fruition to the great benefit of Artshall in the form of the Dire Bee Lounge. I haven't been able to stop in yet but I hope to remedy that soon. I heard they have ham.

Relationship Note on Nicia

It did not occur to me that Jonathan and Cassander would end up being so close in age. Pregnancy does tend to narrow one’s focus, I find.

I’m glad they will grow up together, and if Cassander ends up setting an example for Jonathan...I’m sorry.

Relationship Note on Gwenna

I did wonder who had gotten my statuette! I'm so glad it was someone who is both friend and family. I feel like it would be a little bit strange otherwise.

Then again, Cassie gave Cassandar the one of Sir Corban and he drooled all over it.

My apologies, Sir Corban.

I rode against an astonishing trio of family friends at the joust and was completely dazzled by the horsemanship of Lady Amari Keaton and the sheer strength of Lady Adalyn Clement. And I somehow managed to best my own long-time mentor and father figure, Baron Norwood Clement. I felt rather bad about it until I saw the pride on his face.

All in all, a fitting tribute to Gloria.

My daughter Nora takes after her father Tyren. Quiet, calm, alert. Sharp as a tack. Baby Cassander, though...he's only a few days old and yet full of righteous fury. That one? He takes after his mother.

Relationship Note on Cristoph

My brother has accomplished so much since he was suddenly and unexpectedly asked to step into our Papa's shoes. Against the odds, he has not just kept our duchy alive, he has made it thrive and prosper beyond even, dare I say it, what Papa had accomplished. I don't say it enough (and almost never...maybe actually never...to his face) but I am proud of him, and inspired by him.

It is true, nannies do solve a great many ills.
