Relationship Note on Isolde
I have met with Princess Isolde a few times now since the end of the siege, and was honored enough that she trusted me to escort her outside of the city walls. There's a lightness about her now that I much prefer over the world-weary, soul-heavy nature she had in our previous meetings. Whatever joy she has found, I pray she can keep. She's fast becoming a close friend.

Since it's apparently 'write about Isolde' week... you're okay, I suppose.
Thwacking me on the back of the head isn't doing you any favours though.

My dear daughter. I don't tell you this often enough, but you are a source of strength for me. Even when we disagree I listen, don't ever think I don't. Thank you, for being you.

Relationship Note on Isolde
There was a time when I was a girl when I looked upon Isolde with envy black and hot in my blood. I wanted to be favored as she was, I would have done anything.
As I grew older and we became a part of one another's lives envy changed to admiration. It is not our duty, our role, to seek being favored, but rather to be worthy of the truths that we know and the Reflection that gives us the ability to be so much more than what we are. In that I am blessed enough to have been able to experience the path that I did so far. The difference between favored and devoted becomes thinner once we move past our own vanity to see it glorified through the constant betterment of the self. Isolde helped me once to understand these things and so much more. It is then that envy was replaced in total with admiration, affection, and a bond that is hard to explain in full.
I am so pleased to be here in Arx where she is now, to reconnect, and to be able to look to her during all that lies ahead.

Relationship Note on Isolde
Such a rare beauty and a true friend. I know I can call on her when my need is great and she will be here for me. I will endeavor to do the same for her always. I envy her grace, perhaps I will spend more time around her so I might learn to carry myself with poise as she does.

Relationship Note on Isolde
I recently had a chance to meet with the Princess Isolde. While at first glance most might make assumptions as to her nature, I found the woman to be pleasingly open minded and forward with her answers. She was clear when she did not know the truth of some of the inquiries I made, was more than happy to help expand on some other ideas, and in all? Was a wonderful conversationalist and willing to engage in debate. It is discussions such as those with her, where I come away wiser for it -- even if I have more questions than answers still -- that I look forward to.

Relationship Note on Isolde
I hate the circumstances that brought us closer together, but I cannot regret the chance to get to know her more as the women we are now than as we were as children.
Bright, fierce, utterly self-possessed. She doesn't flinch from darkness nor try to eradicate it. She embraces it and illuminates it, like moonlight sweeping over the world in the dead of night.
Yet, I also enjoy her humor and her wit. I love her because she's family, but I'm actually coming to like and rely upon her, which is altogether more rare.

I was wary about the southerner priestess. She convinced me not to be. Regardless of what happened, I'm glad I met her and hope that we'll still talk in the future.

I can't help but smile when I look back upon the time the king mixed me up with Esera as he gave that tour of the palace to us. It feels like ages ago, now. We were sisters in that moment. With technically only brothers of my own, I will always cherish that. I grieve for you and your family. I pray this new chapter brings hope.

The Princess is quite an intelligent woman, with much willpower. Willing to do what she needs to when required. I talked to her at the Shrine of the Thirteenth, and she had quite a bit of insight to give to me.

Relationship Note on Isolde
I may have been wrong, in some ways, about the Princess.
Oh, of course, I disagree with her strongly on religious matters. That won't change. However, I think if I can look past that--if I can let myself, rather than use old prejudices against Isolde--I can see the woman rather than what she represents.
I need to be a touch wary, of course, but I think I should work on being kinder, especially since times are looking so bleak.

They say timing is everything. And my timing, as it was? Was perfect. There are no regrets.
And if my lady wants the stars? Well, then I'll just have to find a way to reach to the sky and pluck one out for her. It wouldn't be the most difficult thing I've ever accomplished.

I had been meaning to meet with Princess Isolde for some time now and as it happens the stars aligned and we were both free for a glass of wine last night. I know my brother is rather fond of her so I wanted to extend to her the hospitality of our house. All in all I find her to be a rather enchanting woman. She smiles easily and laughs just so, but I find her unafraid of talking about heavier topics just as easily. The duality in her is intriguing. But most of all, her passion is inspiring. I find myself drawn to people of passion, those who have a cause to believe in and press strongly for it. I can see us becoming close over the coming months and I do hope that happens.

Little cousin all grown up. Talked my ear off about the joys of following the Thirteenth.
Not the same as I remember. She used to sit at my feet while I whet my blade and told her stories.
After her lecture, or was it a sermon? She embraced me and called me kin. I'm not certain what I think of her now. Changed, for sure.
