Relationship Note on Sudara
Just as wise and refined as I remember her being, and a welcoming presence. Still, I shall never be cold enough to wear furs.

Relationship Note on Lottie
Miss Lottie makes scrumptiously delicious pastries and sweets!
I am in LOVE with her craft; and, find her whimsical establishment to be splendid.
I shall be visiting it more often from now on!
Ps. She makes those delicious southern treats Martino shared with me, when we were visiting Southport.
I have found that I absolutely ADORE chocolate covered honeycombs almost as much as tea.~

I am relieved to hear an agreement has been made for a cease fire, after our diplomatic attempts.
The people of the Lyceum were great, I do always enjoy my trips down south, specially to Southport.

Relationship Note on Harlex
It's to Harlex Valtyr, Captain of the Crimson Blades and Sword of Lenosia, whom I owe a great many thanks to. Were it not for his support, House Champagne might not have been successful in our endeavors to secure vital trade routes between the Oathlands and Crownlands.
We were also able to put an end to violent men of House Beaucage who sought to ride down the prodigals fleeing for their lives, aid a group of Knights of Solace, and so much more. I shudder to think what the outcome of my journey would have been without him.

Relationship Note on Martino
I am glad you liked the cloak my love. I feel it really does suit you; and, well, you were in need of it for the winter. It simply seemed like the perfect excuse for a gift.

I have heard that the Tourney of Thorns possibly has a folly as the grand prize.
This is most unfortunate. As I have said before, I will say again. Humans should not participate in follies. This is not about humans being /more/ and acting past their potential and overcoming hardships or outperforming expectations. Follies are just not meant for us. We all have such potential, all of us. If a Nox enters a folly, and dies, they can still live out that potential.
If a human does, and dies, they will never be able to accomplish the important things they could have accomplished. While skill may help in surviving a folly, it is also sheer fortune whether one passes out of it or not. It is a holy rite dedicated to the Queen of Endings. Perhaps one day, when I feel that I have accomplished all I can, that I have made a difference and my job is done perhaps I will enter another Folly and return to the Queen and see her smile.
But if humans have things in this world they wish to see done, people they wish to see again. They should not participate in follies.

Relationship Note on Galen
It has been far too long since my brother and I had a moment together. Despite trying to put business aside, it was difficult as we are both ridiculously responsible people. There was an unanimous agreement though during the conversation. Our parents had four beautiful, amazing children.

My cousin, Marvella, wed a man of House Steelhart. By him she has three children, and though he was lost during the King's Rest, he has never been forgotten by her or our House. When word reached me of the destruction of the entire House of Steelhart, I was shocked. Raids by and against the tribes of the Shav'arvani are by no means unheard of, but for an entire House to be slaughtered...

Relationship Note on Domonico
You'll keep your promise in mind, is what.
And the person you refer to is a potential brother-in-law, so what's all this rubbish about "facing?"
For God's sakes, Lord Domonico. You're a rather unpleasant fellow.

Relationship Note on Sparte
I am ever grateful that I have a cousin in Arx who is there to help me find my way. I can say with certainty that without him, I would not have settled as quickly, nor found my feet on as solid ground as I have.

I feel as though I have settled into a routine here in Arx; which is not to say that it is a bad thing, but I need to be wary of limiting my social circles to the same people. It does not help that I have a dislike of crowds, trying to have a conversation in a crowded room makes it far too easy for me to get distracted. To anyone reading this who I don't know, come and say hello, have a cup of tea, and chat.

I have been working on my teaching technique recently. As much as I joke about my standard teaching technique being to hit students over the head with a ironbound book of Vellichor while shouting "Wrong", I am aware that teaching takes all manner of skills, from the ability to speak in a way that conveys information, to understanding your student and their motivations, to knowing the material you are teaching. I think I may have finally managed to understand how to be a good teacher.
