Relationship Note on Delilah
Such a tease! Hinting of interesting things learned without sharing it. Well, I guess we are all guilty of that from time to time, for some things. The without sharing it I mean, not the teasing.

A quiet family-style relaxed meal with friends. What could be better than those few hours of relaxation and mutual support.

Taking the children to the shrines and starting to teach them has proven to be an interesting task. They are fascinated with the spiders, the fish in the pool, make faces in the mirrors and generally have done well though how much of theology they may absorb is questionable. Still, it is a start.

Relationship Note on Bianca
So much to catch up on since seeing you last! Songs sung, deeds done, family losses. It will take more than one visit to cover all the questions we ask each other.

A request for a new song to be written. How challenging! They do not wish lyrics, only music, now how to make the music 'speak' will be the task before me.

Once again others have come to the aid of Saikland. Mistress Petal, Ladies Olivia, Miranda, Sanya,Lords Julian, Mirk and Ian, Prince Jasher. We checked on that odd moss found under the blackened glass once it was cleansed and ... dealt with that horrible sickening growth as well as some creatures that killed one of the village women. I left some silvers with her husband and child to help them out for a while as we delivered the sad news to them.

Relationship Note on Arn
Another memorial person is gone. Duke Arn, skilled in war, interesting, kind below his grumpy crust. He came to the wedding reception of Estaban and myself in Jan. of 1008. He almost picked a fight with Esta because he was taller than the duke. And his wedding gift to us was a jar of squirrel jerky cut in tidbits sized to feed a dog. At least we had a dog, Gunther, at the time though he tried to give us a dog he claimed was annoying him to go with the jerky. Attending the wedding festivities was, what he claimed, to be his one and only social event of the year. Grumpy or not, I liked him and respected him. He did things one might not expect since to my knowledge he never spoke of it to others. He took time to help soldiers retrain to be better, more skilled, to compensate for difficulties left from wounds. He had high expectations and set high goals for those he helped and never made a to-do about it. I never would have known about what he did if Lord Ian had not spoken of this to me.

Relationship Note on Arcelia
I'll tell your children about you, my sister-in-law, keep your memory alive for them when they come to the Saiks for fostering. We seldom got time to talk but... how I miss those times and the little tales you would tell me about Estaban.

Thanks to you my brother has another female in his life, and you made me an Aunt for the first time. Now it is time to work on giving that little one a brother! Luis needs lots of children to spoil and to teach.

So much deadly beauty in such a colorful array at the flower ball. The rain of petals was...
Aha, I have decided to keep those thoughts for myself! If someone was not there to see some of the spectacular things, to leave some things unsaid will perhaps encourage them to attend another time even if to be a simple wall flower.

Relationship Note on Karadoc
Doc? Doc's gone, too? One by one the family and former family are getting whittled down. I've had many a laugh and many tears shared with Doc. He was always supportive, always game for a challenge, my right hand and my supporter during troubled, difficult years. I hope the time spent with his Countess was happy, the kind of challenge he enjoyed. I.... weep.

One by one am trying to get copies of the last song written to the persons mentioned or to their heads of houses. Only two left to go but I need a break for a bit of wine and friendship, my hand is aching from so much writing.

Relationship Note on Arcelia
My sister in law, missing at sea and thought dead. We never had a chance to visit as much as we wanted to but love for family was there, was strong. Saik is to foster her children when they reach the agreed upon age. We'll keep her caring and her memory strong in family.

I've spent time this week overseeing that the old storeroom on the third tower level is cleaned out and converted into a rather comfortable bedroom, It looks like it was a bedroom before, just unused and had chests and trunks, discarded furniture stuffed into it. The fireplace chimney is cleaned, windows polished, the little balcony swept free of last fall's leaves, and the room aired out and now ready for whenever Lord Julian Saik arrives in Arx. It could be any day now.
