Relationship Note on Patrizio

I was very pleased to learn that Prince Patrizio has become the Archduke of Setara. I couldn't have asked for a better person to lead us, and he has my full vote of confidence in addition to my unconditional fealty.

It's a difficult time to take on the heavy burden of leadership. Given the current state of affairs, he faces a trial by fire that could define our future and his legacy. After Archduchess Belladonna made Pravus into a Great House, many will expect even greater things from its next leader.

If anyone can overcome these challenges, it's Archduke Patrizio. I have no doubt that he will rise to the occasion. His tenure will be one of great prosperity for Pravus and the Compact. May the Thirteen continue to smile upon us.

Some years ago, in one of my first voyages on the open sea, a storm appeared before our ship. The crew together had lifetimes of experience, and the ship was well built to weather such storms. We stayed our course, unaware of the approaching danger.

As the stormclouds unfurled, the fury of the gathering storm finally became apparent. The winds whipped the vessel, and the waves grew taller and darker with each passing moment. If any of them slammed into our broadside, the ship would tip over and capsize. We had no choice but to point the ship into the waves, and dive straight into the storm.

Like a single squadron as it charges toward an opposing army, engulfed by superior numbers and assaulted from every side, yet miraculously endures, blessed with Gloria's favor as the enemy ranks surge forward, unable to break the resolve of the warriors with nothing to lose — so our ship crested wave after monstrous wave, vying against powers beyond our control or understanding. Finally the winds receded, the seas grew calm, the skies turned clear. We met Mangata's test, and we survived.

Though the crew's actions were unquestionably heroic, no glory could be won that day. Only life or death. We trusted the ship, and we trusted ourselves. It was our best and our only chance.

Thank you, scholar. May wisdom light our path.

Arrived in the grand city at around mid-day yesterday. After a bit of aimless wandering (which is the best sort), I was able to locate House Seraceni. Kind Imogene already had a room waiting for me so once I was settled I immediately dozed off.
