I begin packing soon, for the trip of all trips. I expect it to be fully filthy.

Relationship Note on Giorgio

I won! I mean, of course, I did. I couldn't get the design out of my head, but I told you it would win if you had a hand in it.

My day-moon lantern floated to a graceful victory amid a chaotic inferno of the less lucky.

What more hopeful omen could there be to mark the occasion? Congratulations, the Proscipi carve beautiful memories together.

I never thought I'd see the day, but here we are. And it's so weird to think about!

The Festival of Lights has left stars in my eyes.

Allow me to announce the winner of the Saffron Festival of Light's lantern contest, Messere Mailys Corsetina, and for the composition contest, Lord Orland Amadeo. The winner of the Missed The First Lantern Race Mini-Race was Raven the Blackheart.

Congratulations to you three, this doesn't look suspicious AT ALL.

But in all seriousness, it was a bright and lovely time; a home filled with many friends and dignitaries, traditions remembered, memories made. I am for a short spell less homesick.

All the credit goes to Marquessa Cassiopeia for being the most lovely hostess on Dawnsend or in Arvum.

I feel in some circumstances things which are fervently hidden have a strong desire to be found.

There's a desire starting to burn slowly to seek out a blade, not for me to wield but instead to help restore. If it can be restored, perhaps then Caldera can too.

Perhaps even me.

Pulled between memory and prospect, my thoughts are spinning slowly.

A big part of me will always belong to Jyri, but I know he wouldn't be impressed if I hid away for the rest of my life. I also have a responsibility to see to the well-being of Whitehawk's people. Hawkhold will be strengthened and enriched, with new allies and new markets. My only remaining hope is that I am able to help the people who will become mine.

It's a strange feeling, being pulled between memory and imagiings

I watched the lit lanterns sail down the water. Some sank and others caught fire. Only a few reached their destination.

Sometimes success is due to careful planning and a lot of skill, but other times? It's just plain old luck.

You never know, what another day will bring. Stumble or fall, things have a funny way of working out, too.

I’ve taken to the forest upon a quest,
In the darkened woods I’ve set camp,
To find the boundaries of the shadowed soul,
With my heart as my only lamp.

In the darkness I found demons,
Well familiar with my desires,
Chasing, hungry, set to kill,
Turning good will into fires.

Once fires were extinguished,
The darkness like umbra spread,
Only in the blackest black I’ve noticed,
The stars shining bright overhead.

For everyone is a moon,
Defined by their ecliptic phase,
Some darkness is required,
To set the light ablaze.

Truly there have been some spectacular parties lately! From the Masq to the Festival of Lights and my own affair at the Academy, I really do feel in my element again!

I put my soul into the fashion as well, so I'll have to do even better in the future!

I am getting married to Elora Whitehawk. I landed in Ark barely knowing anyone and met her on a turn of fortune, a twist of Chance, and now I am getting married. I am amazed at the way life works. It was a happy twist, though, and we have become friends as well as falling in love. She is a light that brightens every corner of my life.

With winter gone, I return to my people, having walked the cold shores in search of what I cannot say, they know that I hunt them or perhaps they do not and if so, so much the better.

I spoke with Princess terese about her upcoming dance of blades events. I am amused and excited for this. I wonder how many will be brave enough to fight in gowns

The Thaw is my favorite time of year. When things return to life, to color. Maybe this year will bring a change.
