Silas
That the Lord Commander let me sign on is a sign of the times, though I'm certain he would tell me that I'm skilled and people in the lowers like me well enough. I will do what he asks of me and so far, I'm stunned that 'shut up' hasn't been in my daily orders.
He is stalwart, resilient. Someone we need as a Lord Commander of the Irons, with a great deal of common sense. The kind of person you want to work with and not against, whom compromise is his go-to weapon rather than his blade.

You can be alone but never lonely. You can run with those you call your kin and still be alone. You can share blood with a hall full of people who share your traits and habits, the slant of your eye or the tone of your skin. You can be there in a crowd and still be Apart.
I recognize it in others, those of us who never quite belong. I see it in my sister, who stands at our Duke's side, that she is alone while surrounded with people who bare our name. Alone, but not lonely.
To run with a pack is a lesson in boundaries, to let others so close and into you that there are no more borders; you can't find where their heartbeat starts and yours stops.
And then there is the true physical nature of being alone: when the forest and the plains open before you and all you have is sky and sun and stars, a moon that glows and the wind that tugs on your hair and your sense. You can be alone like that, aye, and still, never lonely.

I thought she was intimidating when I first met her, to be honest. A Prodigal, sure, but a noblewoman and second in leadership to a guild of duelists known throughout the Compact. And tall, and she had such a presence--.
But she was thoughtful, too, and funny, and she put me at ease. Now I know she's kind too. That's a pretty amazing combination. I owe Holt a drink of thanks for turning my attention toward the Champions.

Old sadness can touch your life in so many ways, and yet there is so much power left in a laugh.
I think humor may be the most powerful force in the universe. I challenge your heart not to be lifted by it.

Bedaxxled beauty and the guild master of the crafters of Arx. Anyone can make beautiful jewelry and yet she can make it sparkle more than any I have seen. Skill to aspire too and perhaps even surmount, though that is something she is far more ahead of in the race to start with. Besides, why try getting in forst when it looks far better staying behind her in the race.

Count Maximilian a man of prestige and a name in the trading business that is by far a golden beacon. Generous as well and fair with those he trades with and who is in his organization. May his success continue because that only means more profit for all who play their part in making the Black Mountain trade company profitable.

Julea
A smith that shapes the sharpest blades and the beating hammers that ring out. A coin blade and smith, one that knows that life is short and als the beauty in creation. A good drinking partner in the very least and the rest? All I have to say is the bottle is ready whenever she wants a sip. but also holds true to the saying,
'A man wishing to be unhappy, finds many ways to sail his course. But we rather drown in the waters, happiness found in lung fulls.' Old Thraxian saying...

Victus
A man perhaps that is beyond reproach as one of the most subtle and deadliest men I have ever met. His sheer presence is the raw and epitome of house Thrax and that of the living representation of the Sea Serpent that threatens all the ships upon the water. A dangerous thing in the turmoil of the world that is right now and yet the profits seen are splendid to be seen with him as the head of the house.

I was born one of the Abandoned. Perhaps that gives me a different perspective in regards to the current situation than others. However, I don't think it really requires any thought, any decision, to decide to help refugees, regardless of whether or not they're part of the Compact. We're -all- the people of Arvum, and all of us face the same threats. The mistakes of the past do not need to be repeated, in deciding that some are more worthy than others. It's time to bridge the rifts, not widen them.

I had heard h was a beast of a man, Elk or bear, I still cannot decide which it is that pulls at the imagination more. Now that the tattooed giant has bared it all. I suppose it could have been worse if I hadn't gotten out of the way in the last moment and that others breached the subject of his lack of britches or much of wearing anything at all. When that was done he had cooled down some but then l get told no, but then maybe yes to courting Neve if I find some flower around Greenwood, and hearing Neve say there is no flower like that there. IS it really a goose chase you send me on or is there a chance there that even f the task is difficult you might be rooting for me?

She's got the looks, the smile, the charms. She's got those eyes that see a little more than they should.
She still got Lil' Mae to make me fat in that drawing.
I kinda like her, but I think I hate her a little.

Neve
She is like thee wind that carries the breath of life and thee solid feel of thee ground under my feet. The spirits have most certainly laid her across my path and said she is your match. A fire of unbridled fury when she is told she can't have something and pleasing beyond measure when she is happy and content. Most times when I am around it is the later, yet I have seen the former in all its glory and danger. Even when drawing a bow to threaten her father over giving his support to our wishing to be together. And -nether- has been resolved as of yet.
She is my heart and soul and I do not know what I would do without her.

It's easy to take things like family for granted. They've always been there so you just assume they always will be, and that nothing can touch them. To be sure, too, we Greenmarchers are no strangers to death and loss. It's a part of the way of living. But after this last battle, when I look around and see all these folk mourning the ones that didn't come back, I'm only selfishly grateful that you and Fia did.

I know that you will go to the ends of the earth and back. I know that you will climb the mountain and descend into the ravine. I know that you will choose the path of the righteous and that yours is a true heart. The spirits brought us together and guide your path and at the end of your quest I will be waiting.

I met the Father Priest at the baths and at first I was real nervous cause I don't always ... well. I just get real nervous is all. But he wasn't just nice and polite, he said some real important things. I never thought much of these God's you have when they're just stories to me. But maybe they aren't just stories after all. Maybe like the spirits they work to remind us of things we might forget otherwise, and what's really important. He reminded me that sometimes the hardest thing you can do is just to have faith in other people, but it's also the most important thing.

There aren't often times when I think I might be mad at your forever. There aren't often times where I go shooting arrows between your legs either.. specially when you forgot where you put your britches. Sometimes I think you just like being ornery for the sake of it. But then I realize it's you're way of doing what you've always done best for me... So whatever you may think about my listening or not... I do, and I always will. I'll always be my 'Da's girl.
