I have stepped up to offer Diplomatic services to smooth over the situation between House Thrax and The Faith and have been given support in this matter. Negotiations are underway and I am certain an answer exists for this that will make everyone happy.
In an effort to keep something like this from escalating beyond a minor diplomatic situation and making the task of peace a harder one than it already is, I do urge all Houses and Families to wait until further developments have been made and announced before making any more proclamations. Thank you for your understanding and support in this matter.
In addition, two things:
*I will be meeting with all Great Houses, not just Thrax, to negotiate a treaty and law to implement that will ensure the acts committed by Prince Abbas Thrax never happen again.
*I am also meeting with Prince Calarian Grayson regarding application to the Diplomats to act on a more official basis in the future, should such situations arise.

Relationship Note on Orazio
The Legate's strength is truly a marvel. I can see how such a man has been chosen to serve the Faith in such a high capacity.
He was entirely what I was not expecting.
It's a surprising fact that still this city holds this much mystery as to offer me a light such he in such a dark time as this. There are many things to be thankful for today. He is at the top of this list.

I have decided its time for more entertainment and hijinx - possibly of the romantic kind.
After the siege and after the city has licked its inital wounds, I plan a masquerade ball. Perhaps as spring is upon us... All type of costume welcome but the entirety of the face and hands must be concealed along with other distinguishable marks.
Of course, my whispers with be the crown jewel of the night as always. Of this i have no doubt.
Perhaps Lord Rook would be so kind as to help suggest a suitable place. We will speakof it later.

Again, I find men are loose with all organs spare their hearts.
While love eludes me, I still find myself warm at night and my pocket full. Is it worth it?
Time to find more serious pursuits to find more serious men.

Relationship Note on Calandra
Darling Calandra was as lovely as ever, and the Festival was a delight, to see the king and queen crowned and the cheer of the people. My only regret is that I were unable to linger long, but my dear Whisper scarsely had need of me, the way her attention was being vyed for. She is a well liked woman and a fine addition to my house and home.

The Festival of Commons, for the peers of the realm to play at a life without their great burdens and for the common people to forget those to whom they are sworn. A delightful thing, yet it has me longing for a true masquerade. How long since we all played at masks? Much too long.

Step outside into a brisk Spring evening -
Draw breath. Acknowledge life.
Find a loved one, a family member, a friend, a devoted vassal, a pet.
Acknowledge them. Thank them.
Live, for in doing so we honor all we have lost.

the many ways
the human heart
can bruise
so much like
in the shades
of over-ripening fruit
sometimes like
a war that I
will lose

Love has to do with their eyes, the touch of their hand, their voice, their laughter, how it felt to stand next to them and feel them brush against you, how it felt to see them after a long absence.
With love, the pleasure is in the details.

In the end we stand-alone with nothing but our memories.
Motionless in a sea of darkness, clinging to love lost -
Hoping that someone will save us, but not willing to swim to shore.

My Dear City,
After my prolonged period of time resting languidly on my blue velvet settee, hidden behind the lavish doors of the Whisper House ever so much like a gleaming pearl ...
I have returned.
There is so much in the way of new news, so much new gossip, so many new intrigues and so many new appearances of those that should visit the House.
Know that you are welcome, if you have the coin to spend.
We will keep a light, and an eye, out for you.

About Rook Grayward: He truly is very helpful, and a nice target for flirtatious banter. No. Seriously. He takes great interest in the welfare of Whisper House and was the one who made arrangements for armed escorts, to be available when needed to all members of our House. I enjoy my interactions with him, and heed his counsel occasionally.
