I made a promise long ago. As we set sail for the North tonight, I go to uphold that promise with everything I have.

Should I not return, my final will and testament is in my black journals just before this entry. I give full permission on my potential demise that it be released for public viewing.

My hide is tough, my axe is sharp. I return victorious, or I meet an end I can be assured is a noble one. Let it be known that in these moments, I was content.

Danse. Danse Thrax.

I've had my eye on you for sometime boy and kept a strong leash on my thoughts in the meanwhile too. I was cautious. Waiting for the other shoe to drop as I was expecting. Your sister is so fucking loud, so wroth. All the time she's got fire burning in her heart. When she don't, she's just sleeping to unleash it all again. Yet you... I can count the number of times I've heard you cry over something on my hands. The first one being when I broke the door down right after your entrance to the world.

Surely this boy is not so quiet, I thought. Surely the terror of a toddler was going to break free at some point. No child can be so perfect, with so little headaches.

But it is truly a miracle. You are a gift, my boy. You sleep often, you observe for ages before you even make a sound. You've got streaks of your mother in you and I'm damn glad for it. I'd go insane before I was able to raise a second hellion like Astrid. You've a strong mind developing boy. I wonder if you'll be as finely tuned with the spoken word as your mother. Maybe you'll be a lawyer. Or perhaps a nautical enthusiast.

If anything, I have a feeling you'll be smarter than me one day. That's good, boy.

Relationship Note on Mae

The jailing would've entailed me putting you in a time-out chair and loudly reading excerpts from the children's book that was based on my cat.

I don't actually possess authority to put anyone beyond my own fealty in a cell. Even then, cells are done much better by the Iron Guard from what I hear. Impersonating a monarch though? Shit, that's paperwork only another monarch could tolerate I imagine.

I wish to publicly apologize to my wife for implying that she is a witch, that I ate some of her 'cosmetics' which I have now learned are a thing which have existed for a very long time, that I put her 'cosmetics' back out of alphabetical order, and that I implied she was old but a very pretty old person. I am sometimes dumb.

I miss my alcohol, children, and weapons and would like them back please.

Relationship Note on Talen

Well, the cat wouldn't have been the one to open the drawers and start picking up cases of things, opening those and then putting them back together. I'm not stupid, Talen.

Also where I come from cream is either medicine or it's food. It wasn't medicine so if the world made sense, if would have been food.

Relationship Note on Coraline

I just assumed she had a dirty face.

Also my liquor cabinet is now gone. If anyone can find that, that'd be nice.

Today I went digging in my wife's vanity out of boredom. I found things in there that I have difficulty explaining upon deeper, self examination into the matter.

There were many strange substances inside. Creams, colored things that rubbed off on my hands, brushes that are too small to paint with, tiny boxes that served no purpose other than to hold flower stenches. I've never seen a collection like this in my life and I'm pretty sure they're meant to be a bundle of occult reagents.

Did I marry a witch? I don't think I did, but then again I might've definitely married a witch.

Oh by the way 'Rissa, when you read this I probably put most of your shit back in the wrong places. Lock your drawers next time.

Family means everything.

Even if you don't share a lick of things in common with someone else, you can at least share the fact that you both share the same blood. Everybody wants their blood to be protected, 'cause it's their blood. That's a bond that can't be easily broken.

Protect your family. It's one of the most valuable things you have.

Relationship Note on Alarissa

I don't understand for a goddamn second how she can think that there needs to be seven different varieties of spoons for soup, different forks for seafood, and certain knives for cutting as if one or two wouldn't do the fucking job.

I just don't get it. But if I know anything, it's that a spoon is gonna be a shit weapon to do damn near anything with. That much I'll prove.

Relationship Note on Sorrel

I've never been one for a joust. Horses and I don't get along nearly as well as other animals. But I've always respected the sport for its visceral style and the brutality one risks when getting smashed by a lance at high speeds.

Falling from horses looks like it's shit. So kudos to Sorrel for staying on the horse and bearing the brunt of her share of blows.

So I have a dog now. Her name is Matilda. She's a shaggy thing that I'm told is hunting-smart and has enough bite to take down a wolf. Half and half a good pep talk from a salesman and truth no doubt. But she is big, I give her that.

I sailed up river to a little farmstead to go pick her out. Family there was a nice, homely sort. Had a whole litter of big dogs, small dogs, just hounds everywhere. Could smell it from a mile away. I was browsing through one little pack of puppies when suddenly this big grey blur came running up to my side. She took a leap and we cracked our skulls together.

Don't remember anything from standing up to being in the dirt with a bunch of howling mutts around me. So I'm guessing she snuffed my lights out for a good couple of seconds there. When I came back up the farmer was apologizing like his damn life depended on it.

Told him I'd take that one. Now I've got a monster bruise on my head and a new dog that my cat doesn't seem to immediately despise.

So, anyone know how to train a hound?

Has anyone ever considered that milk is just flavored cow water?

I mean that's what you're drinking. Juice outta a cow.
