Pasquale
Your friends worry about you and I number myself amid them. It is to be hoped you achieve the good health you deserve.

Quenia
No dying allowed. Igniseri needs Marquessa Quenia. While it is understandable needing to know just what sort of pirate problems Zeb and Ariella handle, when you go out to see for yourself, please be careful. When I saw Quenia fall, saw her get wounded....there are no words for the fear, concern and anger felt for my friend, my cousin, my ally.

Having babies is hard, very painful yet exhilarating work. My precious little twins. Jatal will have to return to being a Nanny instead of my letting her spend so much time helping Marquessa Quenia with her research projects.

My name seems to be amid several others on an assassin's 'hit list'. That just confirms what I have suspected for some time now. It has not been unfounded paranoia, not excessive worry and brooding suspicion, there is a very real basis for my fears. Now my fears turn to my family. I think will leave Estie and Kyllan in Saikland after my next trip there, for their safety. If something happens to me, I don't want them hurt.

Sasha
My heart aches for Sasha's loss. I know all too well how it feels to lose a spouse. He died so bravely, saving the lives of others. He was like my cousin. Note to self... tell Sasha about the cousin when she is ready to hear, in the meantime, just be there for her to listen or with a shoulder and handkie, or a bottle of wine, or just whatever she should need.

Tonight I finally got to spend a little time with Ariella and Luis. Seems years since the three of us managed to grab a few minutes together. And we hugged and talked and drank and exchanged stories. It brought home how much I love and missed them.

Graham
Graham is gone? I have known him for about eight years, back when he spent much of his time at the Golden Hart. He held Princess Valencia in such high esteem. He taught me a little about dodging, took me on walks and picnics after my first husband's death to drag me out of my to-long retreat into the recesses of the tower. We were friends though have not seen much of him since he inherited a holding to manage.

Jaenelle
A steadfast friend who worries about me as well as a capable leader. It is so good to get to spend a little time with her.

Sometimes it seems like one can tell just how good a friend one is by the way they meet after a long absence apart. Some dive into talking and sharing lives, showing warmth and generosity of self like they were never parted while others are more distant, more aloof, like a nervous cat padding around something it has not made its mind up about just how wary to be.

Time seems to be passing all too quickly. It has been almost a year since marrying Tally, my second husband. And so much has happened since we wed.

Quenia
Such an amazing woman. She is a good role model. I find myself often pointing her out to my daughter.

Tea at the Black Fox. Somehow that just sounds wrong with as many fine wines and whisky and rum varieties they have. None the less, tea is what I am in the mood to drink.

New wines, so delicious. Medeia was lucky to have run across a batch large enough to share with others outside the family.

Out of place plants, old ruins, maps missing landmarks and ancient roadbeds. Exploring can be so interesting yet can cause more questions than the answers it provides.

So much news to catch up on, it boggles my mind to think about it. So many changes.

Odd how ideas for composing songs arise. My latest one came from my children asking questions about when I was a child, how I came to learn music.

It is going to be so hard to tell the twins their 'first liar' Aiden is dead. They adored visiting with him and his bird... and playing with the Duke's little ones. Before he left for war, he gave his dog to us, and a perfume to me. Once I got home from the hospital after days of unconsciousness, I smelled it and my eyes just flooded with tears. Another dear friend gone.

Much gratitude is owed to the talented, skillful healers who cared for me while unconscious for days and tended to my wounds. Thank you, whoever you are. With me unconscious, no way to know.

Calypso
Next time I see Calypso I'll have to see if she has managed to teach others that a shining example of leadership does not mean covered in layers of shiny glitter.
