I spoke at lengths with someone tonight. Someone I knew, but not well. But she knew me. She saw things about me I didn't realize existed. I want to thank her for finding them. For validating my thoughts and helping shine a light in the dark for me. There are so many questions now. Scary ones. But ones that need answering.

Thank you.

Relationship Note on Willow

You were not even that bad. I mean, only slight debauchery.

At least you weren't the one to fall asleep at the bar mid story.

Relationship Note on Evander

You chose a book over a ball?

Are you sure you're not part Leary?

I was informed yesterday that I am meant to dance with my husband at our celebration this week.

I am either going to need to be lifted up or invest in some very very very high heels. Maybe stilts would be better.

Who started this tradition?

Keep up the compliments and I may blubber on your shoulder again.

Those Rivenshari dark ginger cookies have been my life saver over the last night. Everytime I woke, I had another and then I finished my bag for breakfast.

I need to befriend the Rivenshari cook just to get those cookies everyday.

Thank you for hosting such a great party.

Next time I will use the full strength and make sure there is no chance of you kicking it back.

However Deor shoving it down your tunic will live with me forever.

Relationship Note on Elloise

You my sister are brilliant!

The best!

While I am dubious to the material you made them from, they work and I have such schemes! No.. Not schemes. Plans. I have plans.

Yay science!

P. S if a slightly cranky And stinky northern lord comes looking to buy your products, don't let him. They will only be used for schemes!

Relationship Note on Syd

Today, my heart is broken.

My friend is dead. Not a welcomed death warm in his bed and surrounded by those who loved him as he wished. But a cold and cruel one. One that had him hurt and broken.

Lord Syd was my friend. Not only my friend, but my teacher and mentor. The person who gave me sage advice and took me on crazy adventures with his words and gave me clarity about all the little things that make up a life.

My heart hurts to know we will never share any more wine, or be scolded by you about fanciful stories. No more scheming about flaming arrows or hearing you tell people I threw my guards out a window.

You, my friend will be greatly missed. There is not enough words to express my sorrow at this loss.

Relationship Note on Martino

Lord Martino,

I am flattered by your words. You were my first friend in the city, and I am honored by your praise. To think, when we first met I was the wild girl chasing any adventurous take you offered.

Thank you for sticking beside me while I found my feet here and helping guide me to become the person I am now. Thank you for the kind gentle nudges I have needed to make better choices for myself.

I perhaps need to start calling you wise rather than just old.

Lately I have been bombarded with information, which makes me want to pull on the threads I've been given and unravel more of the thoughts and ideas I've been given, and head out exploring in earnest. I have never been one to sit behind a book. But, when should one stop?

I mean, curiosity killed the cat and right now I am pretty sure I going to be that cat.

With my recent marriage into Stahlben and the return of Magnus's sister, Lady Volcica to town we've been convinced to hold a wedding or party of some sort.

Do you think demolishing a wall in the house to create a window, and pulling up the carpet are acceptable decorating plan for a party?

Relationship Note on Magnus

Today my husband informed me that the way they woo in the north is to tolerate death threats from their wives.

I suppose this is lucky for me, as I have mentioned drowning, suffocating, stabbing, poisoning and bear wrestling as all possible activities for today.

Relationship Note on Dariel

Nemesis?

Are you still cranky about the time I glittered your bath? Or when I scared you? Or was it when I threw that scone at your head? I guess there was the time I stole both your teas.

I will promise to try to be less nemesis like if you promise to keep sharing your tea and pastries.

Relationship Note on Magnus

I have been married almost a full week, and these are things I have learnt so far.

1. My husband likes to sleep with his axe nearby. Sneaking into bed could prove hazardous to my health.

2. The threat to my rabbit being eaten has been increased tenfold. I have heard the staff muttering about the wild food in the house.

3. I have learnt numerous bad words in Northern Shav when I tried to change the decor from black and white to something more bright and inviting, like pink.

Relationship Note on Maja

Give me a chance to change your mind and show you how lovely birds can be.

The gardens of Leary house are full of birds. beautiful song birds, and ones that swoop softly between the branches. They have plates of seed and never try to steal.

Come sit in Leary gardens and let me show you how beautiful and wonderful birds can be.

Next time. We put the food on the table near us, rather than just the rum.

That was a lot of rum.

Birds are beautiful and wonderful. They sing and remind me of all the beauty of the woods.

I found carrots! He was hiding in the library. I think he finally got sick of Fairen's threats to be made into stew and took revenge on his books.

I have placed them strategically throughout the library, but I will still want to be a long way away when those nibbled books are discovered.

Relationship Note on Elloise

My recommendations on visiting Elly's lab.

1) if you are already am energetic person, don't drink her potion. You will spend the night climbing the walls and thinking a sword shooting crossbow is a brilliant ideas.

2) Don't touch unknown vials. They /will/ explode.

3) Don't pick up things without asking. You will be tackled and maybe blamed when things fall apart.

4) Everyone should ask her for a tour. Her inventions are amazing.
