The Thirteenth reminds us that just because we can, doesn't mean we should. May we all strive to master and control our passions so that they might not control us; that we use all our strengths and weaknesses to build upon the goal of keeping in check the Abyssal nightmare and uplift our fellow man so we each might grow.
    Using the weakness of others for personal gain places another link of corruption on the soul. Forgive, uplift and grow.

Oh, precious. Stop while you're behind.

I am sincerely hoping that someone who is friends with this child takes away her pen and hides it for a day or two.

Good Gods I had no idea so many people actually took time out of there days to read /my/ whites. This is a whole new level of opportunity. Circles within circles. It's almost as if people have nothing better to do. Hold on now, some of you have shit to do like run your domains and attend your tea socials and continue talking shit about the people out there actually doing something with their lives. You'd really think people would understand the responsibility that comes with being a noble but apparently it's all silver spoons and free rides. Seriously? No, it isn't. Let's take a look at the elite and break down just how many of those are actually high born commoners, members of the Faith or common folk who have actually worked at a trade to develop a business and establish a mercantile empire based on capitalism and not just aristocrats. You know the thing you do when you as privileged people move in and fuck over the native denizens of a region and steal their resources for your own. First, let me put this down for my own sanity and not for anything other than putting thoughts to paper in the book that's all about me. Right? Interesting concept that showcases our society is motivated by selfishness. Me, me me me. You haven't heard about my good deeds because I don't have the need to write them down and immortalize them on the pages of some dusty old tome that most people use as a medium for self-masturbation. To be quite honest, this discussion could on and I could highlight my points but I'm bloody bored already. You bore me. That's what I'd say to most of the people who come to read my white journals and walk away feeling offended about my thoughts. You know why you're offended, because you're not perfect. Something inside you begs for validation from your petty minded peers and no one else cares. No one cares.

Seriously, stop...think about it, let that soak in. No one cares. This is the last time I'll write about this for your reading pleasure, because I did this for you. (Thank me later those who know who you are). For everyone else, excellent work out there fighting the good fight. Liberating the Shav and Abandoned Coalitions who needed our soldiers. Thank you to the people who work tirelessly restoring order to the realm. Thank you to the people who have mended wounds, stitched on limbs and performed the real miracles of healing. Thank you to the common people who know my heart and have spent time with me in the past week organizing the projects that will provide free healthcare and a tuition free public university! Thank you to the people whom are working into the wee hours of the morning making sure that the Gods protection is extended all across Stonewood lands and beyond. Thank you. This is what I live to write about, and this is what matters.

And if the brattiest moron in the city didn't read my pages, she would never be troubled by my judgment of her character.

Yet still, here it is. In public view. For everyone to see. Because that's what the Archive does.

My sister Princess Tabitha used to tell me, "Those that scramble to establish the moral high ground are normally only looking for an elevated position to attack from."

I have never seen your charity in the Lowers, and I grew up there. Then again, who's to say. Perhaps I missed it.

I did see you talk down to shopkeep whose home had just burned down across from my then-home at the Murder. Didn't miss that.

Oh wait, I'm a Grayhope commoner, not a Culler commoner, and I don't count.

Carry on.

You're right. Most of those that read your thoughts aren't privy to your 'inside jokes'. As someone who claims to not be ignorant, perhaps your education in knowing how to be aware of your words and their effects was... lacking. Any good politician measures the effects of their words before they commit them to paper. Your words came across as facetious and demeaning. Therefore, surprise, people found them facetious and demeaning. It's amazing how that works.

Also, your defense of this 'inside joke' by claiming that you have risked your life for the Compact and donate money to less fortunate... yes, and so have most of the people that I know. This doesn't make you special or give you the right to be a flippant, empty-headed ninny because you have a 'poor friend'. Perhaps you could stand to do some thinking before you decide to put words out there that might be 'misconstrued'. At the very least, you should see Lady Eirene Malvici to help you remove your slipper from your throat. It has to be painful.

How about this, when you walk into the Archives and want to read something. Don't pick up my white journals. In case the Archlector decides to read my whites again, now he will understand that he reached for /my/ book of his own volition. I Personally I read everyone's journals to satiate my curious appetite of course, but I only write about the ones that really affect me. Soooo moral of the story, if your name doesn't end with Culler. Exit stage left and take many seats.

When you publish your insulting flippancy in the White Journal for all to read, you subject yourself to the reactions of not only the person with whom you have your idiotic 'private joke', but to every citizen of this city in the reading public who happens to view them.

Perhaps if you'd like to engage in 'private jokes' with other citizens of Arx, you can do so in private and not subject the rest of us to the putrescent dribblings that apparently constitute your sense of humor.

Here's a professional tip from me to you, from one person who gives money in large quantity to the Lower Boroughs to another:

If you have to tell everyone how selfless and compassionate and kind your service is and demand recognition for it, it is neither selfless nor compassionate nor kind.

Twit.

Now I could be offended by some of the comments in the Whites but to be quite frank, I've come to expect it. The thing is, I even understand it. Not having context to an inside joke among good friends, because Torian Culler is someone I consider as much for his brutal honesty and all the effort he has put into his work of which I recommend, but when you decide to levy insults and hurl challenges on said assumptions it's disrespectful in a whole new way. As someone who has put her life on the line for the Compact time and again and has many true friends outside of the nobility I don't take offense to false information. I donate 25% of my weekly salary to helping educate, clothe, and shelter people who have less than. Besides that, I have paid to erect destroyed and dilapidated structures in the Lower Boroughs, once again using my own resources and not relying on fundraisers. Which is definitely a wise way to raise the resources our people need. I've fought for the Compact time and again and if you don't know my compassion and kindnesses then the burden of ignorance must indeed be a hard thing indeed to overcome from that lofty pedestal you occupy. I will respond to the Challenge in a constructive manner. This won't be handled by Champions or but by a contest of the minds. Here lies my opportunity to see what extent the nobility of Arvum have gone to understand the truth behind the socioeconomic divide in Arx and beyond.

I really feel for Lady Stonewood. It must be difficult to function in life, weighted down as she is by the burden of extreme stupidity.

Goodness, this burden of nobility is almost too much for me. I do so wish I could be hungry and cold and tired all the time, it would be so much an improvement. I envy those children who grow up without enough to eat or any parents to look after them, to be so very free. It is terrible to have enough to eat and a warm place to live. Terrible.

I recommend that anyone who actually feels this way promptly donate their wealth to one of the families in the lowers. I am quite sure they could assist in relieving you of your burdens.

I didn't look, I didn't want to look. There are just some faces you don't want to see in your dreams. All the same, I did the work I came north to do and it was nice to be in my homelands again. I missed seeing so many trees. I'll have to make a point of spending more time under them again.
