Relationship Note on Zakhar

As the renovations of the mansion continue, I finally own a clavichord.
Constructed by the ever talented Zakhar, it is adorned with floral engravings and a lovely honeysilk seat.
Positioned in the solarium, I expect many melody filled nights will be spent watching the line where the starry night meets the lights of the city.

Relationship Note on Jael

I'm not good at saying goodbyes.
And this is not a goodbye anyway.
Take care of you and we will take care of yours.
The rest, I suppose, will remain unsaid until your return. And maybe even after.

Relationship Note on Orland

When I walked into Lord Amadeo's event to thank the physicians and mercies, I knew I came to be grateful for those who are grateful.
It was only when he greeted me with a reminder that our first encounter was when he was injured and me and another saved his life, I realized how sometimes things we do out of duty, rings volumes in other people's lives.

Gratitude is certainly not why we do it, but it clearly makes it all worth the while.

Relationship Note on Medeia

I will admit that I am not a trained midwife. Despite my vast knowledge in the art of healing and creating balms, midwifery was never something I sought to extend my knowledge upon and so when I was approached with Lady Medeia's project to open a midwife training center, I confess I was uncertain of the need but supported the idea for the sake of innovation. It wasn't until one late night when I was called to deliver a baby that I understood why many more needs to be educated on the matter, mothers and midwifes, or random physicians called to help in the dead of night.

The midwife training center is meant to be an annex of the Saving Grace hospital including informational center for the public and a classroom for the Physicians, Mercies, and Harlequins, who are joint by the effort of bringing it to be. The task is clear: sharing and teaching the best practices so the midwives feel equipped to do their tasks well. There will also be a dedicated room for birthing, for those able to reach the hospital on time and a carriage service for expecting mothers.

I believe the center will be of great assest to improve both service offered by midwifes and the knowledge for new and experienced mothers both. Those interested in raising a donation or assisting with the project, are encouraged to contact Lady Medeia Eswynd.

I send will wishes to all expectant mothers and merry births.

Relationship Note on Aiden

I cannot say I knew Duke Rubino well. In fact, I only ever met him once recently while taking a stroll with my dogs in his spectacular menagerie.
He was not in the best disposition and shared with me his unending grief for old friends long passed.
While I am saddened for his loss, I hope he will find solace in his new found home, perhaps to be reunited in the future with those he missed so.

I've never attended a battle before, not a war battle anyway. We have our own little battles on our lands and some conflicts but never like this. Hundreds of ships, thousands of soldiers. The fire, the screams, the corpses in the sea. Not an ideal enviorment to maintain composure and it seems seeing the people I care about hurt brings out the worst in me. I do not like who I become when I am faced with all the ruin and carnage. I should pray for my soul.

But before I do, there are things to be done: wounds to tend to, mourners to console, families who lost their loved ones, fathers, mothers, those who provided for them that need to be cared for. Where do I begin? Can one fix her own wounds by caring for others?

I hope so, because that is the plan. We have won. Now to deal with the aftermath.

The Art & Culture District project is one that is too big even for me.
I will have to get all the help I can get, but I am excited. And nervous.
And I will have to delegate. How do you do that?
Is there a manual?

Relationship Note on Vincenzo

I am so pleased for his return to the city for the benefit of the fashion industry and apprently for the benefit of me winning dancing contests.

What a crazy week, scholar.

First I was able to educate myself properly on something that has evaded me for years! I managed to find some progress on a research I have been conducting for months! Then I was rushed in the middle of the night to deliver a baby!

So much happened this week! What do you mean its only Tuesday?

Relationship Note on Klaus

Everyone certainly has a cousin that convinced them it was perfectly safe to reach into a beehive to grab their doll that was stuffed there by said cousin.

I was itching for three weeks.

Bee careful cousin, I've learned a few tricks since I was seven.

After the success of the Beer Festival in making everyone goofy yet happy, I cannot wait for the peerage to attempt to bake a cake this week's end.

I hope no one wears anything very expensive.

Relationship Note on Tyche

I have spent an amazingly delightful night at the Inverno Estate with the Diamond Dalliance.
There is a lesson to be learned about oneself when engaged with such challenge - mainly about the difference between greed and ambition.
It also led to some incredible occurance I would never have imagined to come to pass.
Such an exciting night.

DEATH TO THE BEEKEEPERS. DEATH TO THE LAURENTS!

Honestly, I hear it so often, I'm thinking of composing it. It has been quite a while since I sat behind a clavichord.

I adore festivals!
The beer festival is upon us. I think everyone could use a pleasant distraction that involves good drinks, good foods and some games.
Do you think it is a problem scholar, that I am holding a beer festival and I do not like beer?
Thank goodness for Master Venturo.

Relationship Note on Cristoph

Of all variety of feelings, guilt is one I wished never to experience.

But.
When you are one and the damage is grand and you cannot aide everyone.
When you reach them but it's too late.
When you reach them on time and there is nothing you can do for them.
When you managed to save yourself but not others.
At least I did not lose you too.

I cannot even drown my sorrow in cake. Perhaps if I am lucky, I will drown it in the blood of our enemies once my cousins are done with them.
