As a northerner I obviously favor some of the Pantheon moreso than others. Mangata is well loved in Whitehold lands and Skald being tied to the North is likewise well loved or perhaps well respected. No papercut, nothing happening. Have a papercut, something happening. Nothing happening infinite choices. Something happening, specific choices. If I were a God of choice and had to choose between infinite choices and choices revolving around something small I'd probably pick the shorter list... But then again I am just a man and I fuck up a goodly portion of my own choices so what do I know.
I support Skald, may Master Aleksei take this opportunity to further remove himself from the choice of resigning his place in the church.

Hadrian watched us duel. One aspect of glaivedancer training that I had to learn young was humility: "Leave your ego at the door." Otherwise, a beginner fighter would constantly feel overwhelmed and intimidated and resentful of the warriors that are more skilled than she is. I am glad I learned this important lesson young. Otherwise, I never would be able to stand the Voice of our House watching me get so easily knocked out.
Recently, however, I find my patience dwindling. I long more than ever to restore our the glaivedancers to their former glory, and I can't very well do that if I'm so careless as to get knocked out in training. Such ego is not good. I must meditate to regain balance.

Of course, nowhere near all my stories are at their end - but I find that when I read about legends, my thought isn't that it's easy, it's that I am wasting my life and need to do more.

Personally I think if Skald is defending papercuts, that discipleship needs to get its priorities straight. Because fuck papercuts.

Not all to a good end, mind you; at least not to what folk inside a story and not outside it call a good end. That's the nature of stories, of legends. It's easier to read them than to live them.

Why can't I relive my enemies dying in horrific ways night after night? I might enjoy sleeping if that's the case.
I became a doctor to save the lives of the people around me but it's been for nothing. I can't fix dead.

Within the Mourning Isles, such things would likely be prosecuted as their lords dictate. Outside the Mourning Isles, no right-thinking lord, lady, or commoner would ever return an escaped thrall to thralldom, as they are simply executing the right enshrined in every other part of the Compact to sever one's connection with one's fealty and seek out service to the Crown instead. If violence was involved, some lords might choose to leverage judgement on such a newly freed person, or return them to their home fealty for judgement, but I suspect that the individual details of the case would matter a great deal.
There is a reason why the only thralls in Arx tend to be the most broken of will, or the ones with relatives of tender age or circumstance back under the direct authority of their lords where they can receive the punishment for any escapes, and why thralls are rarely, if ever, allowed outside the Thrax ward.

Were a Thrall to escape and find themselves in the Oathlands we would respect thier rights as provided under the Compact for non Oathbound, unlanded non nobility, who have the ability to live where ever they choose.
Now of course if thier escape involved murder or other egregious crime we would cooperate with investigation into the matter and consult with the Crown to see if such warranted trial in thier former home, but otherwise we consider them free citizens of the Compact at that point.

Houses Kennex and Grayson are now bound closer through treaty with the added bonus of it being a love match as well. Much is made of noble marriages, and also of the freedom of commoners to marry. I never considered marriage an option for myself - my head is too often buried in books - but it was the sort of ceremony and party afterward that makes a man wonder, just a little. Even a bookworm like me.
This morning I felt better, if (slightly) hungover.

In other news, I may have a patron lined up if I can manage not to be a disgrace to myself.

There have been so many things that has happened to me these last days that it's difficult to count them all really. I have had the fortune of meeting a variety of people, Including the countess Emmelline, And Lady Orelia, and they both seem to be charming individuals. And Lady Emmelline has purchased my first perfume, while there is another I am just waiting to sell.
MIstress Joscelin has taken me on as her Protégé, and it is so honorable to have her as my patron, and I think we will work well together. Master Caspian Stabbed himself in the finger and lost 500 silver to Master Holt, and I had to clean the wound, before wrapping it. I really hope he doesn't get the rot from it, it's a small wound but with knives these things happen especially if it is wet or if it is a dirty blade, which I don't think it was. Still it was exciting to watch. Oh, and there is someone who I think has cought my Eye, or maybe it is the other way around. I will have to see what that is all about.
