To the extent your inquiry suggests mutual exclusivity, I object.

From the sound of it, I'm halfway to making a proper sailor, then.

Never before has a loss felt so exhilarating. My gratitude.

Such anger and upset - though I am told it is natural for one to wish to defend a family member. Oddly though it seems you largely agree with me - that this is a personal matter between the two, apparently now resolved, and it should not be made into something larger by attempting to throw silly ill thought allegations against the whole of the Faith.
If I may gently say, Jeffeth can speak as a Godsworn because that is what he is. As was Juniper. What I have not seen Jeffeth do is attempt to say 'We, the Godsworn' or 'We of the Faith' and try to invoke wider authority for his dispute. But as I said, unless Archduchess Belladonna or her voices spoke out, I presumed that was an overreach in a time of emotion and not an official position of Pravus, which the Archduchess has, in her own way, confirmed is the correct take. I have every faith that in private Arianna will be reminded to be careful, and that only one sits on the Setarco throne.
As for worrying about things, when accusations attacking fundementals of our society such as the Faith are thrown around with wild abandon by emotional nobles, I fear it is something that does warrant some note and response. But I can reassure you that I am capable of writing a few sentences for the whites to correct an errant child of the Faith and still organise and command an army to march, and I shall hope that this soothes whatever concern you have.

One of my students whom I decidedly failed to turn into a bookworm. Instead, she has grown up dashing, bold, and well-suited to her role as Sword of Setarco. To her further credit, she is keen to seek assistance from those who possess skills she doesn't when she thinks that such things are needed.

One of the more amusing things I've found myself doing with Viviana is discussing and imagining potential futures.
And one of the more delightful things is that we can do so. I have hopes, and dreams, and... I think that is a good thing.

You know, when I said I would like to visit your hometown, this wasn't quite what I had in mind.

Lady Viviana and I have found ourselves far too busy lately, but - well. Sometimes you make time.
And we did. And it was good. And I've missed her terribly.
Now I'm sitting here, scribing my journal, and already I miss her again.

I went to visit my sister today at Pravus Manor, only to find out she was not available. I should have sent a message first, to be sure, but sometimes a surprise is just delightful. I won't call it a wasted trip, however. While there, I met the Sword of Setarco.
It's always a pleasure to meet a kindred spirit. She is sure to overwhelm me when we spar next, but I still look forward to it.

When I first arrived in Arx, I met a Lycene woman who taught me things I needed to know, and whom I soon fell in love with. We became close.
Eventually, she would introduce me to Lady Viviana Pravus. A woman of exquisite tastes, with a wicked sense of humour and a smile that still makes me weak in the knees.
I am so thankful for that introduction.
I am so glad to be close to her.

I met Lady Viviana Pravus through Lady Joslyn Stonewood, and we decided that, given our love for Lady Joslyn, it was in our best interests to become friends. A few days back, I finally made good on that by inviting her to visit and enjoy a good home-cooked meal of the Oathlands variety.
We get along well. A natural flow exists between us and I found myself relaxing in her presence. We also seem to have at least somewhat a shared sense of humour.
Now someone explain to me how it is that I make friends with all these wicked Lycene women?

The Sword of Setarco is more than just a pretty face. She's pretty face who hits very hard and can put a warrior on the ground. I shall feel these bruises for weeks. And she made me owe her a drink.

I met a woman who very soundly beat me until I saw little birds in front of my eyes on the training grounds. She was quite charming even if I'm a little frightened to ever be on the wrong side of her should she get angry someday.

Arx feels more like home today.
Her smile makes me smile, her questions give me comfort, and her approval means the world.
For all that is wrong in the world right now, all is right in mine tonight.

It seems she was impressed by my showing at a tournament. That, and Talen talked me up a bit allegedly. She's taken the role as my patron and temporarily gets preferred choice of my company at any events in payment for a suit of armor.

Lady-Cousin Viviana is so daring and adventurous. Although some might balk at her choice of clothing with her leathers and silks, I find it inspiring and bold. I missed her Rite to Gloria, but I heard she exhibits such speed in her swordplay that the metal almost seems to blur. At least, I think that's what the poet said. It might've been something that rhymed with that. She seems to have all the logistics of men-catching down to an artform which is so very much beyond me. I'd love to see the one who manages to catch her in turn, but I'm not sure if it's possible.

Viviana was almost set to duel Duke Hadrian Malvici, and what a glorious ass-kicking that would have been. Alas, it turns out that a priest actually altered his White journal, and was punished with the swiftness and unforgiving harshness for which the Scholars of Vellichor are famed. She seems fired up and still eager to duel, I might make use of that still-raging fire, yet.

Lady Viviana surprised me when I first met her. Sure, she'd be what you'd expect as far as matching her words to back up her blade -- or perhaps it's the other way around? But it's oddly rare to find that gorgeous woman who skillfully plays the demeanor and politics game as flawlessly as if she was breathing, and it proved to be an enjoyable thing to witness. She strikes me as dangerous, in more ways than one, yet delightfully interesting. I feel like I could learn a thing or two from her, yet that it would come with both cost and risk.

As the Sword of Setarco, Viviana Pravus exemplified the traits of a true Lycene woman - beautiful, witty and most important of all, dangerous. It's perhaps because of this, then, that Talen took care not to give slight to the lady without first given due reason. While their personalities perhaps clashed, as Swords of their respective houses it was expected they would often interact.
