Let it be known that on this date, the 20th day of the twelfth month in the 1009th year after the reckoning:


Mushrooms are hereby disfavored and prohibited within the borders of Fen de Lire and not desired within Afflua. Please send your mushrooms elsewhere.


By the hand of Lady Lys de Lire, Voice of Afflua and Empress of Coin,
By the will of Baron Audric de Lire, Baron of Afflua.


Noto Bene: If for some reason your main source of food is mushrooms or other kind of fungi and you are a citizen of Fen de Lire, House de Lire shall afford you an equivalent stipend so you may afford actual food that is not a fungus.

Words passed on to me by an old soldier haunt my thoughts tonight, a poem known as 'For the Fallen' by Laurence Binyons. I share it in part, an ode to the honored dead.

They will not grow old,
As we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them,
Nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning,
we will remember them.

As I prepare to fight in defense of Petrichor at the Lodge, I figured it'd be proper to spend some time in His shrine today. It was lovely. I usually resist climbing the trees there but, when I came upon King Alaric in a tree himself, it seemed not only all right, but the thing that MUST be done. I sat among the branches and talked with good, brave folk and thought on the land and the import of what I was protecting. It was a good day, and a feeling I shall take with me in what is to come.

Relationship Note on Corban

There are some family that are close to us. There are other family that are the foundations on which we draw our strength and comfort. You are one of those for me, Cousin. I cannot tell you how glad that I am that you are safe after your recent encounters. I thank the Gods that you are returned safe and sound.

And with that all said, I cannot tell you how proud that I am of you to see how well you have excelled in your chosen calling. It gives me comfort to know that you are there to protect our King each and every day.

Though you are no longer family in title, you shall always remain so at heart. I look forward to hearing all about all of it. We are definitely due some cousin time, very soon!

The oddest of things transpired tonight. I walked over the bridge, headed upo nmy way, and people halted in their path to murmur affectionate words and nod as though I was someone.

Clearly they've mistaken me for someone else.

I'm so excited! The plans for Aion's Grand Melee are coming together. Next week I'll pick up the aeterna and umbra pillows for the combatants. So far Master Felix and Master Sparte have donated towards the renovations, and Master Felix has crafted the most /beautiful/ hairpins to offer as one of the prizes. They're a matched set, one sleeping woman and one sleeping man, and when fitted into the hair, they entwine as if dreaming together. Isn't that lovely?

Others have so generously volunteered their skills as well and I can't wait to see what they produce. Mistress Adora's Whisper House dollhouse is already ready, of course, and fully stocked with the collectible figurines of the Radiants, and the Softest, and Celebrated Whispers Calandra and Gianna. And the other prizes still left to come...! Oh, but it's going to be breathtaking.

Once all the prizes are done, all that will be left will be to await the date itself, and hope we have a full field to compete for the rewards!

And, of course, to see the Dreamer's shrine rise bright and clean and magnificent again, as it should be. But that will take rather longer and this is only the first step.

Relationship Note on Maddox

The newly arrive lord is amenable to sharing of stories and has an eye for detail that I admire. Equally admirable is his shared love of wine and games.

My suite is finally being renovated. I never knew there were so many choices to make when redecorating and ordering furnishings. Perhaps this is why I've ignored doing it before. But with my returns back home to be more sparse, I should tend to my manor rooms a bit more respectfully than a clothing disposal area.

Finding a temporary place to stay shouldn't be much of a problem, should it?

Relationship Note on Aureth

Legate of the Lost. I feel like such a person might appeal to many of us in the Compact, a shepherd for us all. Don't we all feel lost, sometimes?

It was a pleasure to meet him and an honor. I will carry the slight debt that I owe him with pride.

Relationship Note on Juliana

You have become a wonderful healer, my friend, but remember Lady Eirene and her advice, herbal teas for pain and hefty shots of whiskey to help it along and stop the patients whining. It would help them sleep through the worst of it. She did that because often she could not give one on one attention and wanted them to rest between times she checked on them. That is what observed when she was treating my late husband's wounds. Only I ..er… softened the wording up substantially. She did tend to say things in her own unique way. I miss Auntie Eirene.

Being taken with a cold is truly miserable. I think I'll stay put for the next day or two. I need no physician to tell me that rest is the best medicine for such weariness.

An old acquaintance. Sharp, a little aloof and mysterious, but very witty. Always great fun to banter with her.

I'm with ya, Jyri. You're not in it alone. You never have been. Reckon that's what friends and family are all about, or so I'm learning.

Relationship Note on Lucita

A Baroness of the Saik. She seems to be quite kind as well as knowledgable about many things. I'm curious though if she might know anything about gardening!

The Gardens which I planted seem to be doing well. I should find a few flowers to put in the pots for decorations. I am not quite sure what to use, but as I am from Tor, the selection of that which I can use is quite nice!

I am thinking about purchasing new attire for different things. Formal wear, things for work as well as home. If anyone has any recommendations then please feel free to share, and also make a recommendation for which people in the city make things!

Last night ... what can I say about last night? I was so impressed by the generosity of those that came.

There will be more children allowed to grow up as children. Learning and educated instead of sneaking around looking for hiding spaces for a moment to read.

I am not one for words - I am more for action.

So instead I will end with a generous thank you for all who donated and all who placed bids and entered the raffle.

I suppose I need to write it down. To acknowledge the truth. Bashira has passed away. I do not know all the details of how she passed, if anyone who was there to witness it could reach out to me, I would be eternally grateful.
