There are sometimes matters that must be handled with questionable tactics, there are those who must play the villain so that others can be the hero in the stories we tell.
The world is not black and white, nor is there a single grey span in the middle of it but many shades.
The Mirrorguard will commit themselves under my lead to those tasks which others would refuse. In defense of the Velenosa, the Lyceum and the Compact as a whole, we will be the last to stand and the first to strike.

Three days back, one hundred men and women serving the Knights of Solace failed to report into their superiors. Every Knight actively patrolling in the Lower Boroughs is gone.
Had Felix and I not been in a meeting with Father Orazio, he and I both would have been on the streets that night.
Today more than ever, I seek the light and guidance of Gild.

All opportunity grabbing in the lower boroughs, it seems. Can't say the same of the knights, though.

I seem to be in a constant state of flux. Spending time trying to help prepare for what is about to come. I worry daily that we may not be prepared enough, but I quickly put those thoughts out of my mind when I hear others speak of how we can do it if we but pull together. When Im not worrying about that I looking for good drink and good company or drinking away my sorrows. Though it seems the more time I spend with the Marquessa the less of the sorrows I I seem to feel. Her friendship and kindness has not gone unnoticed. All I know is for the sake of Morale we cannot allow ourselves to be completely consumed by duty. One must have fun as well to keep from going insane. Here I am rambling about random thoughts Oh well its out there now.

I forgot how much nettle extract hurts when applied directly to a wound.
You cut quick and true. Well done.

With the crime spree dealt with, I'd like to go one month without having to deal with yet another major crisis demanding immediate action.
Just one month.
Gods above, this is starting to get old.

She has a peculiar relationship with doors. Even my own. I'll be mildly perturbed if she somehow manages to break a door that has stood for many Lord Commanders before myself. She began in her life in the Lower Borough and has climbed the ladder of life to serve with the King's Own. While she is relatively new to knighthood, she is the first that I actively recruited into the King's Own when I was First Captain to Lord Commander Leona Thrax. It is likely because of that fact that I wish to see her grow, as a knight and a person. She is a genuine success story, that no matter your origins within the Compact you can become something greater.
A very forward woman. I imagine she speaks precisely what is on her mind. It is refreshing, but sometimes moderation is important. Regardless, she can only improve with experience and a steady hand of guidance. I am proud to have her in service to His Majesty.

Tis a strange thing still, being land locked and not quite knowing much about the ways of the mainland. Count Max Darkwater my cousin has been of great help with my adjusting to this life. Since Ive been here these three weeks Ive had good times and troubled and even sorrowful times. Though I have to say my best times so far have been since Max recommended to Marquessa Dominique Wyrmguard that she and I meet and get to know each other. We have become fast friends if I do say so myself. I hope things continue to go well.

... I -just- remembered who she is.
Gods I need a break. But that's not coming any time soon.
I'll make it up to her somehow.

I don't know what to think about this Shaman. They often have curious insights, and are very nice, as well as informative.

Nothing with the lanterns would have worked out as well without her input. I was truly fortunate to have her willing help. May her kindness never diminish.

Honestly, I didn't expect to win. The last time I fought Talen, the fucker blind-sided me and I was on my ass in three rounds.
But I am pleased to bring him into the family, as he deserves. The man is nothing if not loyal, and his devotion to my sister is near heretical. I can't approve of him more.
Also: You fuck with Talen, you're fucking with me, and I won't hesitate to stand at his side to defend our kin.

Well fought on both sides. I am happy for the Sword of Lenosia. Princess Serafina can be wonderfully scary sometimes with her skill.

I realized I haven't written about Fort before. I thought he was just some weird poet, then I found out no, he's an artist, and that he's done such amazing things. He's Aureth's brother, and Hana's uncles, and I tease him about being metaphors stacked on metaphors. He's definitely weird, but he's such a good weird, and he's thoughtful in a way that always surprises me and catches me off guard. I don't think anyone else has made me think as many new thoughts as he has.

Blessed art thou, Reflection, Dark that gives shade.
Blessed are those that embrace thee.
Blessed are we, who tremble before thee, yet take up thy mantle.
Blessed be, oh Thirteenth.
May we earn thy blessings in truth.

She almost made me cry and then laughed at me for it. I know I shouldn’t expect any less from my cousins, but that was very, very rude of her. I know she has business to take care of and people to kill, but I guess I'm glad she can still make time to stack rocks on my shoulders without me noticing.
I'm never going to live that down, I don't think.
