I tried something a bit new for the shop. Not new-new - they're just hairpins - but the design and coloring is a little different than my usual, I guess. I'm not sure if I love them. Sometimes you just have to try something different and see how it goes despite that.

That cheeky Silk is still nowhere to be seen. Lomme got away from me, tried as I might. That leaves us with one to talk, and talk he did. Now let's see if what he said was honest or not.

It would seem some additional expertise is required for the rebuilding of Artshall. The craftmen seem to know what they're doing, but those who manage the shipments and oversee the entire oppertation seem to be in a little over their heads. I'm certain the Laurents will get it taken care of. They always do.

The Marquis Kael Keaton and Princess Keely Grayson's wedding was all the rage with a High Lord and the Queen there! I felt a little out classed, but it was a grand event. Now I just need to practice my puzzle solving skills.

What could be more invigorating than some relaxation time spent out in nature?

Small time shipping and still looking for more crew mates. Hopefully see some action soon, men are getting a little restless.

Such a beautiful wedding celebration, and to be the first to sign the book? Priceless. I may not have won the puzzle game held by the newest Keaton (who looked quite fabulous, I might add), but at least I did get to lay to some small victory. What was that? A chocolate fountain? Huh, I must have been far too distracted to even notice...

An excellent study partner. I think we'll work well together.

There was much celebration at the Grayson-Keaton event. The topping of the cake so to speak was seeing the Queen and High Lord fall into the chocolate fountain in hopes of finding a puzzle piece that flew into it. The fountain was saved when one Lord Mattheu Rivenshari found it.
Congratulations to the newly married couple!

The puzzle piece simply slipped. Anyone that is curious, that's what happened. Oh there might have been another reason, however that's what I know of the event that led to the most amazing dance.

I'm either the BEST mom in the world for NOT participating in a chocolate fight my kids couldn't join in, or the WORST mom in the world for NOT participating in a chocolate fight when given the chance.

I so love the season we are about to enter in. Weddings and balls are such a delight. It is fun to dress up every now and then. Sometimes we need joy and love to balance out the despair and war that surrounds us.

I think this is the first time I have heard Her speak.
I could listen to her speak forever.
Passion Memoriam. She said some other things that confused me.
I need to see what Symonesse makes of the spider web and what to do with it.
Hope, and the passion memoriam. I'll enjoy the quiet. The peace. There's blessed peace.

I have a concept in my mind, a thought that I take great comfort in. A sentiment I wish I could share with other but after deep reflection for a while I've decided there's no way to convey it that isn't patronizing. I suppose we each must rationalize our individual circumstances ourselves.

Over the years I've have had both the opportunity and distinct honor to engage in the treasured tradition of patronage with a number of exemplary individuals. As we know all good things come to an end, but there is often a new beginning to follow it. A relationship may draw to a natural close or the learning party may simply have nothing more they can be taught from their patron. When one grows beyond, this creates a space to be filled and new one would eventually rise to take its place. Like most people, I expect the best of myself and those around me. To become a protégé of mine means accepting the many expectations I have of you, but they are no less than what I expect of myself. I am confident that my latest protégé will not disappoint in this regard.
It's with this cycle of renewal in mind that I write on the subject of my latest sponsorship. Following very thorough discussion on the subject and mutual agreement, Lore Artiglio and myself have determined that we should work together to our mutual and individual benefit. She has committed herself to the vast undertaking of dealing with my random bouts of eccentricity and for that she has my immense respect. My hope is that over a long enough period of time we will both have opportunity to grow as part of this partnership and become something greater than we were each day before the present.
By its nature patronage is an investment. It is often of the self; but also time, resources, attention, favor, connection, and more. Ostria, House Mazetti, and I stand to benefit from our arrangement and I will strive to open avenues to ever higher echelons on behalf of or in contribution toward Lore's own achievements and successes. As with any other investment that I hold, I stand prepared to offer nurturing care to promote its healthy growth or tenaciously safeguard it as circumstances dictate.

Hello Arx, how long has it been?
Though I live and breathe Westrock Reach, I'm so terribly happy to be back in the city once again. Already I have made so many wonderful connections and discovered along the way a Lycene lord who is as fond of coffee as am I.
And Lady Mabelle! What can I way of her? I am determined that she and I will be the very best of friends! I am to co-host her in the Annual Honey Festival, the arrangements for which are even now well underway. I do hope that the seamstresses of Arx have plenty of gold and black silk to hand, for there will be the most wonderful of prizes for the best bee outfit of the day. Should I mention that there will be a sting in the tail on the day?

I'm often being approached about marriage contracts with the younglings of House Laurent.
To those who approach me I say:
Bees only marry once they've found their honey.

The Laurent Family are ever fortunate to have family, friends, partners and people of interest who are willing to help with the reconstruction of Artshall.
