Thinking about getting a training pavilion built on the villa grounds. Kind of floored that the Lycene have one of their own and we don't. How's that shit work?
Going to talk to Darren, talk him into it. Open air to the elements, let you fight in rain and snow. Maybe it'll even double as a bonfire pit. I could go for some drinks around a fire instead of at Spirits for a change of pace.
Going to be good, I'm betting.

Saving the lives of the wounded.
Saving the souls of the dead.

What is trust worth? If it can be shaken at the slightest provocation.
Perhaps it's one of those words that, as humanity, we have tacked on a meaning to something that in truth, does not.
No, that can't be true, I have plenty of trust. I trust that Mangata will fill my sails when I need her the most. I trust that Sentinel will see justice done. I trust that the Gods have our best interests at heart.
The people that they shepherd? Not so much.

There is many a person that likes to bluster and threaten, without any intention on following through with what they say.
I do not threaten and I do not bluster, I warn. It is a rare thing, for me to move against anyone without them being advised explicitly what they have done wrong, giving them the opportunity to stop whatever it is that they do, to make amends for what it is that they have done. There are any number of people that can confirm that this opportunity that I give is a sincere one; if my warning is heeded, then all is well.
In the cases where this warning is not heeded?

I sometimes lay awake at night, I confess, wondering what life would have been like had he not done, what he did. If things had no happened, that happened. What would we all be like in this house. Then I have to remind myself that there is nothing to turn back the tides of time, and that wondering what was, will bring me no better to understanding what is.
As I told another, I do not think that is a yoke around my neck, being his widow. But I believe perhaps that it is a chain. Delicate and frail, and I cling to it in as much as it anchors around me. Some days, I wonder if it it is time for the chain to break, but then I fear what would happen if it did. That I would lose that which is on the other end forever.
What would He want me to do?
We will wade through grief side by side till we find a place to plant our feet that does not feel like sand and see where our disparate paths will venture us forth. He is right. At least there is someone that I can wade through this all with.

Saw Magpie Grayhope's white journal (not that I check it often or anything, don't get any crazy ideas), if any of those nobles with money to throw around want to come down to the Iron Guard Barracks and shower us with some silver, let them know that we won't turn down the coin. Outfitting all these guards to keep the streets clean isn't cheap.

... I would like you to know that the amount of work for a wedding to come together is colossal and daunting and if I happen to conveniently be sent away for a time upon the seas, I will secretly dance with glee that it is you who will be stuck doing all the planning and work and meeting with people and all sorts of things that has to be done.
That sounds like a good idea actually.

I hauled my ass down here.. up here? whatever.. I hauled my ass to the archive to talk about this gorgeous lady that I'm going to take on a boating day trip, but then I remembered she didn't want me to tell anyone. Since I'm trying to hook up with her I should probably respect that.
So, instead I'll talk about a fun little meeting I had yesterday. Apparently some of the nobility think that us poor, sad, downtrodden folks of the Lower Boroughs need their caring hearts to shower rebuilding efforts and charity upon us. I had no idea we were so pathetic and helpless. If you're one of those nobles that wants to help us down here where the shit settles before being washed into the sea, feel free to bring donations in silver to the Murder of Crows and I'll make sure to distribute it fairly and without bias to the most needy residents around here. Sailor's honor.
(Please consider increments of ten thousand silver for the most effective means of redistribution)

Relationship Note on Ilvin
I have been completely, utterly heartsick since I learned of Petrae's passing one month ago. There is no other word for it. The people who brought me up were not keen on displays of emotion, so of course I have just been trying to bury the whole thing. Ineffectually, if I had to guess.
I happened to speak with Archlector Ilvin yesterday and while I don't feel better about her death, I feel better about feeling bad about it, if that makes sense. Also, the Shrine of Limerance has cookies. I shit you not.
Archlector Aureth was a comfort as well, though he did not bring cookies.

Her issues are hers to reveal as she will, but seeing what I have seen and after much prayer to the Gods?
She did what she felt was right, and I believe that at least in principle, she had every right to her actions.
Do not ask me to clarify. Ask her, if she is willing. Get the truth of it, and then judge. But as for me and mine? she has proven her desire to see the right thing done.
