Relationship Note on Sebastian
*A sketch of a dark haired man with pale blue eyes; those eyes are done with azure watercolor and are the only color on the page. He's got a broad smile, and he appears bent over a large chunk of clay, working it into a sculpture.*

Relationship Note on Barric
*A sketch of a tall man with dark hair, bright blue eyes done in oceanic watercolor the only color on the page. His strong features are lip up with an amused smile as he spars against another with a what appears to be a blunted sword. He appears dressed in leather pants, and a simple leather jerkin.*

I attended Countess Navegant's birthday party earlier in the week. She asked not for presents, but for donations to a cause I find right and just. Therefore, House Mazetti will be putting its silver towards a project that will not only venerate the gods, but benefit people from all walks of life across the Compact.
I also met with, by chance, the Duke of Grimhall. A man of few words, he nevertheless offered some sage advice. I shall thank him for it only after I have implemented it.

By the way, I'd like to announce that I'm boycotting all jewels.
Do not send me any jewels.
No jewels.
Definitely don't.
... especially not shiny ones.

Relationship Note on Valerio
My uncle is a man of great personal strength and moral integrity. He may say this was not always so, and that may be true, but it is not true now. He has faced down more things than I can imagine, many of them terrible, some few of them more wonderful than words. I believe fatherhood is the one thing he'd claim without reservation saved him from despair when in a very dark time of his life. What I hope is, with recent events, the Marshal of Ostria can finally lay those old ghosts to rest; not to forget them, but to cut their ties upon his spirit.
As an aside, Vitalis, as soon as you finish with whatever adventure you've embarked upon, I demand you come to Arx post-haste. There is a serious matter that requires your attention, and I already have several viable candidates lined up.

I have been ordered to go to Maelstrom to fight. This seems like the simplest way to tell those I know in Arx.

If I write something in here instead of saying it to your face, chances are good I just haven't had access to your face.

For my part, I'm quite happy to repeat anything I write on some piece of paper to someone's face. It's entirely possible that in the delay I've thought up something extra to add on.
Words are words. If anything, putting them down in a journal that everyone can read should make them mean more, not less. It means I don't give a shit if absolutely everyone knows what I think on something. People can argue over whether that's wise, but it's strange to say it's cowardly.

Apparently, my worth is better kept in Arx and not going off to dangerous places... where I could die.

While I'm sad that Aureth won't be supporting me in The Great Breakfast Sandwich Boycott of 1007, I'm nevertheless moved by his concern for my wellbeing.

Here we go again. Another uppity commanding officer with his knickers in a wad over breakfast foods.
Boycott sandwiches if you want. I'll order TWO.

I continue to defend at Maelstrom. It has been quiet, but even when things are quiet, I never discount the value of being a grounded protector on the walls.
The Grayson army, Prince Luca, Lord Killian, Lady Arianna, Master Sparte, Lord Faelan, Lady Clara, Lord Graham and Mistress Eilonwy continue to stand with me. I am proud of them all. They all are handling themselves with grace, honor and taking the protection of the people of Maelstrom quite seriously.
The Thrax warriors have been very brave. I am impressed with their combat skills and their skills at sea.
They have treated me and those with me, with respect. Prince Abbas treats me as a welcome guest general and shown respect for my skills. Duke Harald has as well. I don't agree with all the Thrax do, mostly in the case of Thralldom as many do know. I also do not agree with Prince Abba's past actions and have told him as much to his face. I have to admit though that their love of their people is fierce, their worship of their goddess is intense and their naval sea skills are incredible. They also and I never though I would write these words....they show no sign of having an issue with a blond Grayson female warrior.
Prince Abbas said he is following the combat rules of the faith and so far he has. I have hope that he is risen anew from the waters of his goddess and while his past will never fail to leave a mark upon his soul and will never be forgotten, it takes strength to face that past, to fight on and to put the well being of his people above all else.
I hope soon they abandon thralldom, but the moment I will stand with them and fight them and help push back the Darkwater. I am glad that I went. I see new light.
May the Gods be Praised
