I really need to buy my researcher partner several drinks when I met them again. It has never taken me this quick to find something in the archives. I must confess I am confused now about a great many things.

Jadairal, Caer'Alfar, Sylv'alfar, Arvani, Pyre, Wiejin. What do all these words even mean? I open one door, thinking the answers are there only to find more mazes lay before me. Arx is, as I had imagined so, a strange land. Yet, if I am to believe everything I read, a strange reflection.

Another set of tidbits of information but they seem to all be coming around now. More pieces of the puzzle finally setting into places where they can be looked at. Now there's the question of what to do with them which is always one of the more terrifying. I guess time will tell if it's anything useful even.

What do they have to be jealous about? What's one boat compared to having land?

It has been a while since I have written here, at least for the eyes of all to see. Those who know my family well know about our struggles and the battles, we have fought. I have come a long way, especially personally since the events of the Gray Forest, though its memory and the lessons learned there burn as brightly in my mind as ever.

Having grown as a person in faith, character, and skill I have devoted myself along with my sisters to make certain that our name and our legacy is one that shines free of tarnish and displays boldly the strength of Lyonesse. We shall achieve heights that eclipse our past glory and honor shall be in every ounce of our blood.

Watch and see the things we shall do.

It has been a long time since I have had to approach something as if an apprentice. A very long time. And yet there are a band of us who are seasoned smiths and this is what we find ourselves doing. Back to the start. To the beginning we go. I wonder if I'm too old for this.

There was mud between my toes. I suppose one could call the everything a northern spa day. But for charity I agreed. AARG shall see a hefty sum in thier coffeers soon from a handful of others. Not the most ladylike of situations. I will say however that the Lady Monique Greenmarch has bested me in -mudwrestling-.

All one can do is to keep working, and hope that it gets noticed. I know in my heart there is so much that needs to get done. It is good to be back in the city. I have enjoyed every moment since I have returned, and I wait to see what the summer months might hold for me. I have been debating in deciding to gain some of that excellent mundaness that people treasure until they are old.

Relationship Note on Camilla

Welcome back, my cousin. I already feel more energized by your presence among us.

Mm. I have plateaued. I will take this as an opportunity to adjust my diet and record the results. I understand Grandmaster Jeffeth has taken to moderating his alcohol intake.



Some sacrifices are difficult to bear.

Relationship Note on Hamish

What a blunder! How could I not see his robes, the iconography? I must remember this failure, and should the archlector call upon my sword-arm, answer rightly and swiftly to his aid.

To do any less would admit my honor and word means as little as air - unacceptable!

Business looks up for the Blanchard family. Our Cobs are our county's greatest treasure, and we are eager to use that treasure for the good of the realm. We will be good stewards of our county's natural resources as we continue to construct great works, and through those efforts improve the lives of all the peoples we touch.

I still do not understand the interest in small horses, though. But if this is what the market wishes, I owe it to everyone to try.

Relationship Note on Theophania

Is it odd that I take to her, as soon as she comes into my life?

What seems like providence must be guidance by the hand of the Gods. Set upon my own path that I walk with a smile, I see her, lost and confused, needful, and my heart soars when I can place her upon a path to honor and prosperity.

A way with animals betrays a heart of rare quality.

It is heartening to return to the city and see both my family of blood and faith in such liveliness! But still, I am humbled by the sheer scope of the world here, the staggering pace of motion, the uncertainty of every soul I see.

Perhaps with time I will gain a more steady footing on what must be done. With time I will find the same surety of purpose among these people as I did among the Oathlands.

Soon I will be home. Soon I will see Stormheart again and welcome people from the Compact into my world. It is an amazing feeling to have people you may call for assistance when you need it. My people's lives will be all the better for the alliances we've made since bending the knee. We must always move forward.

So many dreams already about flying, and only now I wake with birdsong in my head.

Well. If you call that birdsong.

When I left Arx, I was little more than a girl, and had seen nothing of the world. I'd just taken my vows as a godsworn sister and had accepted a post at a seraphy in the Oathlands, to work and learn under the more experienced clergy there. The city I knew was one seen through a child's eyes, and I struggle to recognize it now. The faces all seem changed, the buildings and streets both smaller and more complex. So much of what I knew as a girl is gone, replaced or covered over by progress or simply change. And I can scarce remember that little girl that I was, as I look upon my own reflection. Everything is reoriented. I am dizzy for it. But I seek a path forward and a place here that shall allow me to grow and flourish, as Lagoma would wish.

Is it good or bad that I am finally starting to *understand* how to guide a domain towards prosperity? Or, at least, to guide the specific one with which Trogen and I were entrusted - I should not presume to claim any breadth of competence, especially when I still feel that I am just finding my feet! Certainly, one should understand one's responsibilities... yet I cannot help but feel guilt that it has taken me so long to become a better steward for my people and their land. Still, I can warmly recommend the formal study of agriculture, husbandry, economic theory, and the practices of stewarding a domain: they truly can yield fruitful results. And I gladly note that Dame Leola Allenatore of the Lodge of Petrichor has been of invaluable aid in my efforts to better myself in this regard.

Relationship Note on Eirene

Sparring with Eirene was an honour. More so when she allowed me to assist her with improvements to her sword technique. I never thought I would be instructing the likes of her in swordplay, indeed several years ago I could not see myself teaching anyone with success.

Times change and I find new ways to serve Malvici and the Compact.
