I'm not very good at writing public journals, for I tend to keep most of my thoughts to myself unless I see reason to share it. But I have to say something about you. For some time now, you've been at my side, and even when you don't realize it, even when you worry, you have been my pillar of strength. You have been a partner, someone I can talk to and will listen to me. Someone that is not afraid to tell me when I could be wrong, and someone that is not shy from supporting me when I'm right.
It is impossible not to care about you, the way I've grown to care about you. It is impossible not to watch your fire, without wanting to help it burn brighter. It is impossible not to feel alive when you're at my side.
Thank you.

Determined as fiercely on the defensive as at the attack. As ever I look to the character of the forces by your side, and then across your field to those arrayed against you. Their call to battle ringing false. Their pennants limp and flaccid.
Whosoever stands against you- time will forget.

Charlaine
She was something I was not expecting, something I had not been looking for perhaps Prince Aiden and Lord Commander Silas were correct you need not look for it, it will look for you.

Valerion
A Valardin Prince who asked me to meet sort of out of the blue. I'm glad I took it up on him, although we ended up meeting at his house's training center rather than for a drink, and then he kicked my ass in a spar. But I rather liked the fellow. I suppose it's easy for me to get along with his House. And all his various friends seemed somewhat friendly too, so I suppose I will need to visit again soon.

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

Edain
I remember when I used to think of Edain as a young man. A young prince that lost his family, that was perhaps not ready to learn. And the truth is that he was young, but he has grown so very fast. I don't know if this was happening before or after Esera died. But while he remains a man of integrity, with deeply rooted values he protects and defends, he's grown into something else. He's become a very well versed leader, skillful and able to handle even the worst of situations. Impressing me is not an easy thing to do, and yet, the Prince of Valardin has done it.
And often.

I had a fun time at the pool battle boat part, I got to meet new people and that is always fun to do.

I can't say that I ever got round to understanding from where came your views on some matters, but the fervor with which you fought for their advancement was inspiring. I have known very few whose actions were so consistent with their words.

Isabeau thinks it is funny to give me gifts then not give me the means to open said gifts. Locks are for children, not adults. I will pay her back tenfold.

When I asked what I should be writing in my journals, I was told to share tidbits of my life so they may be documented. So what can I say that I haven't already mentioned? I'm just a small town girl, living in a crazy world. Sometimes I wish to take the midnight carriage to anywhere...
Hey, you know what, that almost sounds poetic! That could even be a song one day.

You chose to plot a course round the atavistic sargassum that birth put at your bow. I choose to disbelieve the cynical rumors that follow in your wake.

My brother. A pain in the ass. Now he is gone. One of my family is dead. Now, I only have Lady... Marquessa Ariel and Malik as family. Whatever he may have done, I will assure he is honored as a pirate deserves.

I had a man take me out to a fancy dinner and offer me what my heart truly desired, namely, high quality weaponry and revenge.
Sometimes I think I am not like other girls.

I don't make it a point to write too many journals. Truth be told, I spend WAY too many hours in the forge but it's completely worth it. I'm not completely oblivious to the news of the world today but I'm just thankful for my own little sanctuary of fire. I've got everything I need, I lead a very simply life. What more does a girl need than metal, a hot guy, and alcohol?

I considered you my friend.

There are a number of you, who will remain nameless, who have found humor in making faces at me in long-winded meetings. Faces of boredom, disgust, shock, awe, and any other gesture one might imagine making behind the back of an all too practiced orator on an endless string of information.
To those of you I say... you won't break me. I won't crack. I refuse to smile. Good luck.
June 4, 2017, 10:54 p.m.(8/4/1006 AR)
No word can properly express what I am feeling and thinking. And so, until I find them I shall go on.
I am told this may not be wise, however at the moment I simply have no more words.

You blew it up! Ah, damn you!
Well, no, in all truth, I've no idea what happened to the Barony of Blackshore. There was a Thrax Council on the matter of the Baron there, Count Max, and their potential treasonous collusions either with the Gyre or other foul forces. I don't know if I full believe Max a traitor, even if he was obviously an ambitious sort of man. But at the very least, it seems clear someone there was dealing with powers greater than they, and suffered for it.
Needless to say, the destruction of the island made the debate of the meeting mostly moot, save for some matters of succession. The whole thing also reminded me of some of the benefits of not being in charge, as it looked a tedious mess. Up until the explosion part.

Duchess Belladonna Pravus and Prince Abbas Thrax just hosted the most darling "Naval Battle" in the Duchess' private pool. Everyone chose teams and manned a small rowboat, it was absolutely darling. What's more, is that the event was able to raise 157,000 silver for the Tragedy Orphanage in the Boroughs. Well done to everyone!!

Ferrando
I'm no sailor, and neither is Master Ferrando, but I suppose we didn't do too poorly for ourselves in the pool. Didn't flip our own boat over and that's a victory. I reckon we could commandeer a row boat and call it a fleet if there's any call for it. I think for being a proper captain I ought to know the names of more sea birds and what the front end and the butt end of a boat is called and other such watery wisdom, but there's time for it.
Also, rum and chocolate doesn't go too poorly together.
