I have been away from the city, mired in the endless demands of the Scholars, tracing the stars, following the reconstitution of Graypeak, whatever one cares to call the business of court and country. It causes me a sense of poignancy and, if I am honest, a touch of paralysis to stare at the familiar and wonder what has changed. A month away, a season away, and it might as well be a lifetime.
Correspondence remains to be sent, though I whittled down the stack of letters. So many lives and stories await to be heard, mysteries to unravel, dramas to watch. These are minor, trifling indulgences in a tapestry of wonders.
While Bastion remains an aching void in the heart, I reacquaint myself with the hopes and wonders of this city. Of its people.
And though I am a stranger, will it always be so?

There is no other feeling quite like having sand between your toes and wind in your hair.
It is a feeling I base so many others on, and compare them doubly so.

A good week with new people met and new plans made. I am going to help ELora with her investigation into the family tragedy and maybe look into buying a ship. Nothing of huge moment, but interesting developments anyway.

Some mornings, I ride in to hardly a soul on the chilled streets yet.
This morning, I walked in to four Princesses in quick succession.
How different days can be.

Relationship Note on Daria
I have come to see Daria as a good and reliable friend. A skilled scout and tracker and an extraordinary archer! I am glad that she was welcomed in Grimhall with open arms and her abilities will help us fortify our holds further.

Last night on the third shift we got to talking about life and adventures. As expected, a few of the new, more cocksure crew started strutting fine over the number of men they've downed in a fight.
Many of the veterans and old salts smiled smug. They got nothing to prove. I wonder, though, if they even remember an exact number. I know I don't.

If something happens and I don't come back from the place that I am going to, then split my silver between the commoners council and the Harlequins to use as fit. My Caprice can have anything she wants from my supplies and pieces I haven't put up for sale yet, before putting the supplies into the guild's vault for others to use. There's pieces on the bust. Those go to the Duke Cristoph. They were already paid for.
Toad should go to Princess Keely. But ONLY if she makes sure that Toad see's Coda and gets to visit Queen Symonesse.
Ask Queen Symonesse to please make sure that Toad gets visited by the spider that lives in my shop.
If I die, the play that I won, make it about Toad and Coda, on an adventure in Arx with the other animals. If it can be performed in the lowers for the kids there, please do. With lots of treats and everything.
Bury me with a tin of my mum's biscuits, so that the Queen of Endings can try them and some of the Marquessa Lianne's lemon cookies. They should be tried too.

It may not have drawn many, but if you're moored in a safe harbor would you risk the storm or stay put? You'd be cautious, obviously, and hope to wait it out. It's only when the storm invades those refuges that more will dare risk the open sea. Hopefully it won't be too late by then. For now, it'll be only the most daring or desperate. They at least show others that the far shores are within their reach when the decision must be made.

I did some hairpins for the shop this week. Nothing too extraordinary, as other things have kept me busy, but I get antsy when the shelves are collecting dust. I still need to wrap my head around the huge alaricite hammer I feel inspired to make. I have a picture in my head, but the story to put behind it...that's still cloudy.

Relationship Note on Orland
One year married today. It seems like it was yesterday, and I admit I am not fully recovered from the period of Public Comment that preceded it. Where does the time go?
Happiest anniversary, my dear husband, and here's to many, many more.

Curious events sometimes lead to the most intriguing of relationships. To be trusted to be along a personal and important endeavor makes me feel quite honored, as well as grateful. Sometimes a situation deems that you simply rely on the people you are with and hope you can contribute even half of what they have, or will. It's that feeling of trust, I think, that amazes me. How easy it is - how inspiring someone's story may be that you don't even pause for a second thought before throwing in, as they say. It is humbling to feel so completely trusted in return, too, and among such inspiring comrades.
