Minnows tickled at Heron's legs, but Heron only said, 'Those tiny things are hardly fit for such regal creatures as me.'
Perch and Trout drifted lazily buy, supping on the plentiful minnows, but Heron found fault in those as well. 'So plain,' Heron lamented. 'I can't be bothered to bend my graceful neck for that.'
As the sun rose higher and warmed the river, the fish retreated to the deeper waters to find cool and rest with their full bellies. By lunch, Heron found himself settling, and gladly, on a tiny snail picked out of the mud to quiet the pangs in his stomach.

I knew what these things were in theory. I read reports. I sat in for lectures. But it's not until you see how they fight, the damage that they leave behind that it starts to sink in. The fear. The hopelessness. The rage. The horror.
There is a lot of talk about overcoming these things. Lovely speeches that I've heard. I'm not trying to overcome my fear. I'm embracing it. I'm facing it.

I'm more worried about the implications that these Bringers are capable of deception to fool the dockworkers into not raising the alarm initially... and the fact that they're capable of commanding ships.
This siege is going to be a lot harder than I thought it would be.

First men I've lost that died near me and I didn't know their names even at the time. That isn't normal for me, but something I was told by Maude to get used to. 'One of the issues with higher command', she calls it. Well, I suppose that is true...
And we did stop them. Stopped them from completely destroying the docks, although we lost enough. Kept them from getting into the Pit, although that took Gisele and a lot of luck and the blessings of Vellichor. Now I'm working with Maude and her men to cap the hole with something temporary, like a wooden plug with a door. Easier to block a door than a whole Pit, if they try sneaking in again.
But the enemy is close now. Time to prepare the defenses, make them tight, and make myself ready for that...and Brunch? This is a weird city.

It kills me.
Still, at least I can apply my other skills to aid the House here. I sent a letter to inform Prince Victus of my health, and he was exactly as understanding as I expected. Ugh.

Relationship Note on Aiden
Unlike his brother, he appears to like my dog. And doesn't like violence. And insists I relax more. And doesn't seem to be in possession of a copious amount of silver.
I see nothing wrong with being a pacifist with a big heart, but it is because you cherish life that you must protect it.

I've kept it close to my heart since.
I have a lot of complex thoughts about my role in what is to come. I suppose it is only natural; mine is the path that faces the mirror head on. To see and acknowledge all facets of an issue as best we can.
Am I to be the hero? A hero, perhaps. Maybe that's history will have to say about me, if all goes well. Or well enough that there still is -a- history.
I don't feel like a hero.
I guess, ultimately, that doesn't matter. Who knows what heroes are supposed to feel like?
But I better act like one.
And I will do my best.

That person is not me... and she scares me. I still plan on bringing her out again in the future. I just hope that I don't start to like that feeling too much in the future.

I know both Mistresses Mae and Calandra have aided substantially in moving people from the Lowers into the city's centre. Their grace has helped substantially. While I may think myself charming not everyone agrees, and the evacuation was as successful as it was because of them and Mistresses Mailys and Emeline. Mistress Joslyn defended the city well. And Lady Juliet was immensely helpful at getting the lowers evacuated and organizing donations. Each of these women was instrumental in the evacuation's success.
I'm glad we could work together.

When I stop moving, when I've checked on every beloved kin I have and even the ones I hate, when they are safe or avenged or defended, when I can breathe and hide in that pale neck and smell her hair and look into those beautiful clear eyes...
