Several poets in attendance presented their work publicly with skill and passion. When the Princess asked for volunteers to share extemporaneous verse on the topic of "choice," a man whom I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting named Lord Sebastian shared. His verse was brilliant: the meter, imagery, use of rhyme and the affection displayed in such potent words to his lover were awe inspiring. I also shared, and found the reception warmer than I could have possibly imagined.
Various poets also presented works they had prepared previously, including the hostess, Princess Helena - and what genius she displayed! Moving us with flowing words and well wrought rhymes from peace and tranquility to the tumult of wild storms! Then arose a woman of wild aspect and fiery auburn hair, who I came to learn is named Lady Monique Greenmarch. She recited her poem, and smooth and well-crafted verse it was not - and yet it, too, partook of the elemental energy of life so necessary for true poetry - nor will I ever speak ill of any poet with the will and courage to present her work. Something tells me though, that whatever problems Lady Monique may encounter, a lack of courage will never be among them. Finally, Lady Miranda presented a poem that held in essence some powerful love, separated from her, perhaps, by some great distance, movingly conveyed in images of the wind and sea.
Here, my muse, you are not alone, and in the company of true brothers and sisters. I enjoyed every moment in that room, and I eagerly await the next occasion to hear such brilliant verse.

I met a peacocking Sword and they seem interesting.
I'm creating draft sketches of outfits made of fireweave which are made for maybe a warmer climate with lots of flowing streamers.
I might be sketching out a cabbage beret too, to be dyed pink.

I do not know if anyone would want to disclose their experiences publicly in the whites. Perhaps some scholar could record an anonymous account of exile if no one is willing to speak it on it with another.
I ask this because one day I may be responsible for carrying out justice for my house. I want to know the consequences of my choices.

Relationship Note on Evonleigh
Among the blossoms,
The lamplights above winking out
Day's perfume on the air.
I think of maps,
The shape of distant shores
Where we journey is unknown,
Courting a
Mystery, an antidote to standing still.
Beginnings are an exhilarating communion.
We walk these paths,
Tracing one another's steps
In a dance.
I embrace today with open arms
Direction found in
Your golden confidence and light.
The first step from a place
Familiar and unknown,
I will carry your light with me
Today beckons.

You make us laugh and think!
It might be horrible (it kinda was)
But it's entertaining!

You can be so reckless with your heart
but it's not made of steelsilk
It's actually made of blood and gore
I don't think I should be able to see your heart
but then again, I am no healer
so maybe I should just stick to poetry
My dearest, farewell. Can't you see,
this ill-fated affair was doomed from the start.
My people are human;
Your people are human.
It could never have worked.
Recall me fondly;
shed a tear for me
and two
for a world that could wrack us with such anguish
all for the simple crime of removing your heart
with my blade.

upon my neck a breath of air
a look into eyes so deep
into my ears your voice so fair.
Passion is not our problem
Fighting, laughing, kissing, sighing.
And upon the ocean,
we go flying.
Now, the sounds of you
are whispers on the breeze
sent to me on the salty air
a gift to me from you and the seas.
