Reading what is being written about Princess Coraline, to whom great respect is due, makes me reflect on how progressive House Kennex is among the Island houses. Nearly a decade ago my sister Renatta was made admiral of the Kennex fleet. Not long afterward Jan Kennex was named the general of the Kennex Corsairs. Much has been said of the Kennexes, but Stormward has never been a place lacking in opportunity for those who seek it.

Thank you for the concern.

Sabella and I are both okay.

And I did eventually find my pants.

And I did pay for that poor gentleman's hot chocolate stand.

Hello, wife!

I look forward to Master Voss saying such nice things about us in the next newsletter!

Everyone is discussing the added danger to the Champions of a first blood archery duel, but it also seems to me that this would be a real disaster in the making for the audience. Every missed shot is a potential first blood in the throat of some fool who just came to see a good fight in Gloria's name and sat in the wrong seat.

I must admit, I find it odd that someone who came upon a journal entry she found interesting enough to respond to is then questioning how people are finding her journal.

Then again, my assistant is paid specifically to look through journals and bring me the journals of the, oh, three hundred or so most interesting citizens of Arx. Which isn't very hard to keep track of. Generally there's twenty to forty or so entries a day between them all.

What's satire?

Lots of people here talking about lying when it comes to saving lives and preventing disasters, which, okay, sure, why not?

But what about lying because it's fun?

Lying is the best!

I've always said, never let the truth stand in the way of a good story.

Relationship Note on Fairen

I was actually specifically responding to a declaration made here, but if you are bound and determined to take everything as poorly as possible then let me tell you that I think you are a good person with a strong sense of duty and family.

I now understand some of what Duchess Belladonna meant when she talked of grieving on her own terms.

To those who have offered me condolences, your thoughts are appreciated. To those who are thinking of it, it is not necessary. Elara was one of the two most important people in my life. My relationship with, and my love for, my sister are things that belong to me and are not going to be shared with the public. So I will not be attending any wake (an event I believe she would abhor) and, should you feel I am acting too flip for someone in mourning, consider what I have written here.

In other news, I hear the faith made a proclamation. I have no strong opinions. On one hand the faith can't really decide who participates, so they should probably get to decide who gets paid. On the other hand, enh.

Blessed Aleksei is an oathbreaker. In general I'd say if you care enough to make an oath you should care enough to keep it. But everyone's story is different and circumstances mean that saying things is general is for people who have never experienced any specifics.

My sister Elara has died.

That makes two of the best people I have ever known.

Everybody leaves.

Relationship Note on Wylla

You have been lied to, Archlector.

My cigar was unlit, a fact to which several people can attest.

When we speak perhaps you can hear another side of this story and we can discuss the character of the person you have chosen to believe without even asking me what happened.

Lies from a pretty mouth are still lies.

One can pour honey on a turd, but one still should not eat it.
