Relationship Note on Cara

You are -far- too clever for either of our good...but thankfully, you are also someone upon whose discretion I can depend. I don't know what tomorrow will bring, but I know that no matter what, I will always consider you my sister and be there for you..I hope you know that. In all the things I have learned and experienced since I have come to Arx, you and Aislin have been the bedrock of my life here and it is only through the pair of you that I have been able to become anything more than a mere vagabond knight sleeping at the roadside and wandering the wilderness.

Thank you.

Hand-in-hand. Heads high.

Relationship Note on Cara

I love Lady Cara as you can only love someone who has seen you at your worst, and your best, and yet judges you for neither. She just lost her father, yet she stands as tall and straight as the ash tree, and roots herself for her family. All her family. House Grayson could not have chosen a voice of truer strength.

I was going to write this or something like it for the confessional, but really. In a world with secrets everywhere, it's only a little personal truth.

Besides, it's only fitting that anybody who messes with her should know whose weapon they'll find themselves on the end of.

Relationship Note on Cara

I only know Lady Cara in passing. From our one meeting I'm glad she's a Voice. She'll do well. And she understands, I think, my need to stay out of politics. Also: She's terrifying.

Relationship Note on Cara

There's a quiet dignity about her that I found surprising from someone who had just been raised from a vassal house to Voice of the Graysons. I think I will be able to treat well with both the Lady Cara herself and her as the representative to Grayson.

Well this is an interesting turn of events. Good for you, Lady Ashford.

Relationship Note on Cara

The things you tell me disturb me deeper than I would care to admit. It must be connected, but I don't yet know how.

Relationship Note on Cara

Cara is a Rubino by birth and thus, not exactly my cousin, but almost. Our family is confusing.

She is very sensible and intelligent and knows a good many things.

Also, she is beautiful and sad and very tall, like a tragic heroine.

(Woe is me. Proper tragic heroines are never as short as me.)

Relationship Note on Cara

The lady is beautiful and I fear quiet where I am excited. I may have suggested her as a match for Michael (although the pie stealer may not deserve her).

I appreciate her poise and I do keep intending to call on her again. I fear that I have a tendency to bid people to taverns and teas where sometimes it is more loud than it is calming. I should ask her hobby perhaps.

Relationship Note on Cara

Lady Cara came to us from the Lyceum, honored wife to Lord Addison of Ashford. To my great grief, Lord Addison was one of the many lost among my brother's retinue when he departed the city before his Rest. A widow now, she has remained with us and though I can do nothing but ache with her for what she's lost, I am also grateful that she has decided to stay in Arx. The strengths she brings, her grace, intelligence, and good judgment, are all things which we need on our side in these dark days.

Relationship Note on Cara

Lady Cara is the widow of my cousin Addison, and I'm finding myself rather fond of her. Lycene by birth, but she's proven herself an Ashford in spirit. Not in terms of seeking knowledge physically in the world, mind you; I cannot imagine Cara climbing an ice cliff or scrambling down into a collapsed tomb in search of some bit of lost knowledge. But intellectually? She's as adventurous as any of us. She pours through historical records with as much determination and stubbornness as would do any blooded Ashford proud.

Relationship Note on Cara

She seems quite clever and pleasant, if a little sad. I have no doubt the Princess Jaenelle will run into her and correct the sadness in some way.

Poor dear, she was ducked on to aiding the cause of the orphans too. It happens when you associate with the bleeding hearts.

I am relieved beyond measure to have my sister returned to the city.

Relationship Note on Cara

I am more relieved than I realized I would be to have Cara back. Just another Rubino on hand is enough to feel there is someone watching my back, particularly where Sylphie is concerned. And Cara's well-placed to earn confidences I would have to spend far longer to earn.

And more than that, Cara is -- Cara. She's always been calm and level-headed -- everything I am not. She complements me, such as Sylphie does, but without my having to worry about the knife approaching my back.

Trusting no one is necessary, but exhausting.
