She'd caught a snake, he said. And she was eating it.
When she was given to me, I was told her nickname as a pup was 'Mongoose'.
I've decided to change it back to that.
Mongoose the deerhound.

But I refuse to go into detail the source of my supreme irritation. As it will only give that source more power over me.
That being said, the desire that seems to be sweeping across Arx to seek out truth, knowledge, and fact is pleasing to me. It's something I've dedicated myself to, and to see others that I respect and care for doing the same? There are few better feelings.

I've met a lot of people, some new, some old, some meetings sweet, some confusing or worrying.
But the city is too big and so full of wonders...
Among other things... I've visited the menagerie, fortunately, before the animals broke out. I have a new plant to take care of and observe. And I got the most beautiful present, taken from a dream...

Remaining in company of the Silent Reflections could be best described as tragic and while I prefer tragedy in fiction, when faced with it in reality... it is overwhelming.
There was one man in particular that played at my heart strings. For the most part my presence has gone ignored beyond from time to time aiding someone with a drink or food, but there was one man in particular. I don't even know his name, he can not tell me. After much miscommunication I finally figured out that all he wanted was to read my book with me. It was such a small and simple thing that I take for granted daily.
This is what the Archscholar meant when he said he wanted me to understand the breadth of betrayal, I believe. Still, though I know they committed an atrocity in breaking their oath I can't help but feel compassion.
Only a few days left.

Here I am with nothing to do but write and think about things, so I'll write down my thoughts. I tried my hand at poetry but that didn't go too well and I'm not putting any poetry here on account of last time.
If you ask me, I'd rather be fighting a proper battle, mess and all, over the things they have in the woods. I don't mean Shavs, though I don't care to fight them either, but these other white things will give you the chills to look at. They're tall, but strong arms and good steel will cut through them same as any. But seeing as they're unnatural, you get a scratch from one and they lock you up in the House of Solace. There's worse places to be locked in. The Mercies are kind and they do fine work.
I think there are other people better at telling the story of what happened, so I'll leave that up to them. I expect I'll be getting well paid for it, one way or another, and there's worse jobs.
But it makes a woman think about what other kinds of unnatural things there are out there. They say a wizard can cast a spell on you from afar if you look in a mirror or they got a lock of your hair, and they can turn into all kinds of critters or become transparent like air, in the stories, not that I believe that. Stories get taller in the telling, as they say. But if there are such wizards, that would make them hard to kill unless you catch them sleeping. Myself, I've turned down work that called for butchering folk in their beds because that's murder and not soldiering, but I think I might do just that for a wizard or a witch.
That's all the thoughts I have for now. I'm feeling fine and I think they'll let me go soon enough as I have no signs of fever or turning into something unnatural.

As I lay in my suite trying to recover with the aid of a kind soul, I received a missive. It read simply
"If it makes you feel better, you lasted much, much, much longer than Anze."
I am uncertain how to feel about this, but I think the questions can wait until I can move properly again.

Relationship Note on Max
((The fine vellum has written upon it some looping script, rather more sloppy than other entries.))
    Lest I never write another page in this volume, I must resist the hesitation to add the most trite or insignificant events. Therefore, a recording of a visit to the Ebb commences hereto forth:
    I gave my guards the slip, no easy feat, and I must take a moment to bask in that achievement, brief though it was. I was so very grateful to have left the crusty castle of my youth, only to fall into the cloying care of six guards, whom I assume my lord grandfather has set upon me for reasons doublefold: to keep me from trouble, and trouble from me.
    'Tis a shame I'm so wed to it.
    Aye, I gave them the slip and found myself at the Ebb, whereupon I took drink with the Count Maximillian and a Miss Alarie under the premise of being a commoner. 'Tis nice, sometimes, to hear what frank words spill out from others when you are not so shielded from it by nature of your blood. Even still, my heckles raise at foul language, and I felt blood come to my cheeks at some minor insult I came to bear. I imagine the cheap drink had something to do with it. A fun time it was all the same, to feel a whiff of autonomy, even at the cost of the silliness I promised myself to swallow. 'Tis such a very big thing to swallow! I might choke upon it!
    Yours Most Devilishly,
    Princess Denica
