Relationship Note on Hana
Barely old enough to be called it, this young woman is still worthy of the title Master Smith. Such a strange juxtaposition between who she is as a crafter and a person, but I appreciate competence in all forms.

Relationship Note on Hana
The smith I met on my arrival to Arx seems to be doing well! I'd passed her storefront a number of times, not knowing it was her within. Recently, as we've both been favored, she's written to me, and I her.
I look forward to seeing her work, truly. Perhaps I could bring her a lizard; the heat of the forge would be comfortable, I think

Relationship Note on Hana
A surprise niece. Thanks, Aureth. Hana is a good kid, talented, scarily talented, even. Hard to feel like the Lower Boroughs aren't a bit too much for her, though. These streets are the water I swim in, but I've been told repeatedly they're dirty and dangerous. Fortunate she already has a shop in the Ward of the Compact. Now she just has to manuever the waters that proper people swim in, and I know what I'd prefer.
But we're here for her. No matter what she encounters.

Relationship Note on Hana
Almost twenty years ago, a woman was in and out of my life like a whirlwind. I was young. I wasn't particularly innocent. I'm not sure I ever have been. The point is: she was there and then gone again, and it's not that I never thought of it again, but I certainly never thought more of it.
I know that a white journal is a public speech, and while I don't think that many are particularly interested in what I have to say -- unlike others of my family, I am not a particularly entertaining source of drama -- I do not know what value it may have that I tell the world this, if there is any value to be had in it at all.
All right.
I have a daughter.
I didn't know. I might never have known. Her mother knew what I was, and probably guessed at what I was likely to become; her mother made that call.
But now she is an adult, and she has unmade that choice for herself.
I have a daughter. Her name is Hana Grayhope. I give her the name freely, if she wants to take it. I give her whatever comes with the name, whatever protection, whatever ... attendant social grace or, unfortunately, lack thereof.
A father is supposed to give you a lot of things that she's never had from me, and I have no idea what any of them are, but I'm pretty sure if anybody has anything to say against her, I'll owe them a black eye.
I don't love you, kid, because I barely know who you are. But whatever else I am, I'm here, and I'll say it public same as I would in private.
Family's what matters to me.

Relationship Note on Hana
So when a man swears you're his first, that he's 'never done this before, honest' and then proceeds to-
Well.
Revenge is sweet, and couldn't come in a more delightful form.
Welcome to our crazy family, Hana. It's a joy to have you and it's only been an hour.
