I would say ending a lengthy white journal on the fate of children with veiled references to 'consequences' would be considered ominous, yes. I'm afraid I'm not quite sure what you're referring to, Dame Thena.

I am willing to wager that you will still find the insistence intensely irritating. And further willing to wager that as I am your almost direct superior, you won't /actually/ stab me for it.
The possibility that I could be wrong about one or both of those things is what makes it exciting, really.

While my sword would go back to Mazetti, I am endeavored to leave my second most valuable possession in the hands of Dame Thena. The very same broom I've swept these halls of Solace with since my day of entry. May she use it well to take on the hole I'd leave in our hygienic practices.

Note to self: As a present for coming home in one piece, arrange advanced horse riding and combat lessons for Dame Thena.

If you don't come and say good-bye to me then I really am going to write you into my will.

I now consider it one of my duties to ensure that Dame Thena returns with not just a bottle, but a case of our very best 'something strong' when this is all said and done. It is the very least we can do. Perhaps Duke Asger Crovane will even allow me to share his homelands shark stew recipe. Jerks are actually quite delicious when made into a thick soup.

Or because you are travelling with us, of course. No need to say goodbye when we have a long march ahead.

.... your -entire family- will give me white hair before I'm 40. I can feel it.
Be safe, love.

Do bring back a bottle of something strong so we can (finally?) catch up.
Oh and don't die and stuff.

On the contrary, I take it as a good sign to the cleverness of the Lyceum that only one minor noble decided to step over the clearly-marked line made by their Archduchess!
It's still a surprisingly good ratio as far as I'm concerned.

Some say that the closer you draw to war, or anything that promises pain and loss, you start to look around you, anywhere but straight ahead. You look at the things that make this life worth living, the things that fill you with joy, even if it's just a handful of moments. The things that you love so much you couldn't bear losing. The people you call family, not by blood, but because of the place they share in your heart. You look at them to give you strength. The strength to look straight ahead and face whatever the future decides to throw at you. The strength to take it all in and hit back harder.
But what do I know, I'm just some bard from the Lowers. You're probably just wasting time.

I think she would have approved of you, and encouraged you to continue to take no shit.
But maybe I'm projecting . . .

Oh thank Jayus. I was worried to look at the sky and find red there, if so much had changed.
Something to ponder while one thinks of change. Change is good, but change everything and the world loses its mind.

Wait, you play? When did you pick up music? How was I not made aware of this?!
No, my being gone for five years is no excuse.

At least you know what to expect from my scintillating presence.
How's the song going? Did you track down the banjo-player? There's supposed to be a concert this weekend. Maybe you can play it there!

Is there any ne'er do well in this city you don't know from your former life, Dame Thena? And they are all so....noisy.

Here, there, a bit everywhere. Possibly out there in the wide world, or maybe I just spent the last five years hidden away somewhere in the Archives, just waiting for the right moment to write a few Whites!
I am amendable to a drink, or several, before you have to leave and be a hero somewhere. That's what Acting Commanders of the Knights of Solace do, right?

Oh, oh, pick me! I'll spin you a song about utmost abuse and vile persecutors. It'll make you cry your eyes out.
It won't necessarily be true, but does it really matter when one is looking for a commoner persecution poster-boy?
