Relationship Note on Calaudrin

Yes I can. Get to it Deputy Commander Cauldron. It's all on you now.

In the event of my death I will to Deputy Commander Calaudrin the following:

* All of the paperwork regarding the training regime of the new recruits; it has all their names listed and when they are supposed to do physical training.

* My tiaronet, because it would look fabulous within his hair.

* My gauntlets, because he will need a good sturdy pair of them when he wants to punch something, without breaking his own fist, while dealing with all of the paper he is receiving.

* Also my destiny. Start learning how to commune with Gloria, and save the world. You can do it!

Iron Guard-



It's with a somewhat heavy heart that I must let you know that at this time I am resigning from my post as Deputy Commander of the Iron Guard, and stepping down from Lieutenant to Officer. It has been an honor to serve the Guard in this manner, but it is time for me to focus on serving House Grayson as Voice of Bastion, and those duties will require the majority of my attention.



Yours,
Ainsley Grayson

Tiaronets are the same thing, just pull the hair through and bam, done.

Tiaras are just broken coronets.

Discuss.

Relationship Note on Calaudrin

Oh good, I left a pile of papers for you on your side of the desk. And a pile of papers for Silas on his side of the desk. Now I'm going to sleep for a full six hours.

I have taken into my care and in my sole, unshared, responsibility forty some children. I must speak softly around them, for loud voices frighten them. I sat with them today and in the middle one of them started crying. Before I had a chance to comfort the little girl, more started crying. Not all of them, blessed is the mercy of the gods, but enough. I sat helplessly trying to comfort and console them. Filled with guilt, anger, and helplessness.

What a caustic mix inside of my chest burns.

Someday I'll get a better handle on my temper and my pride. I pray to the Gods to give me patience and wisdom.

Relationship Note on Victus

I sent a copy of this to Victus via the nearest messenger I could find:

'I'll fight you.'

No response yet.

Relationship Note on Serafine

An addendum: No, further thinking. You'd be the first to tell me: If this is a curse, stop bitching, get your sword, and kill the person who laid it.

Relationship Note on Serafine

As I sit here at my desk, staring at these figurines I've worked with artists to have made... I cannot help but feeling guilt. Is this my fault? Did I place a curse upon us? First Valkerie, then Killian, and now you. That leaves only me and Leta left.

The guilt creeps in, and worry now, for Leta. But I think that you would be the first person to smack me and tell me: "It's not all about you, Ainsley".

I didn't spend enough time with you.

I'm sorry, my friend.

One never quite knows how precious one of these senses are until they lose them. I've never felt quite so helpless. Do not like.

Relationship Note on Aislin

I can't send you a messenger. So I can only hope someday you return and catch up on a giant backlog of white journals and find this:

Happy Gift Day, my friend.

I left you a figurine in the atrium of Ashford House.

Relationship Note on Aiden

I am torn between utter pride and humbleness: Pride for my brother has grown into such a strong man before my eyes, and humbleness to see him excelling in areas that I do not.

Today, Planchet appeared in my office at the Iron Plaza a letter in his hand. It was from my ward, Miss Aniyah. It said, in no uncertain terms, that if the staff at the Grayson Manor fussed over one more time today she was going to start throwing things. That quote: "..I may be bedbound, but I'm not dumb!"

Thus, I took the rest of the afternoon off. Leaving the paperwork to a junior officer, and sprung her from the house. It was an ill thought out plan, I need to have a special chair, I think, made for her in the gardens. Perhaps a swing with a back on it so she will not fall, but can rock slightly.

Still, she seemed to enjoy riding around on my back as I got her out into the fresh air for a bit. However, she was so sufferingly understanding when I started receiving missives, and had to go back to my office in the mansion. I did insist she come with me though. She lay on the couches and read, while I answered letter after letter until my eyes blurred.

Aniyah humbles me.

If you wish to know what true strength is:

It is a fifteen year old girl having her legs crushed, but continuing to live left to the best of her ability.

No man nor woman is irreplaceable save to their loved ones. My heart is heavy for Lady Eirlys' family and betrothed. My heart is like a stone for Grandmaster Armel and all those who cared for him. My heart is broken for all of the lives lost at Stormwall and all the families that are now missing a piece, that to them, is irreplaceable.
