I returned from the experdition up the Bonaventure River, and I have never been gladder to see a fire or see my family.

While I am glad to be home, I was blessed to travel with such fine members of the society and to have the experience to hone my skills with Lady Rhiannon. I hope in time and with experience I can be as well renowned in skill as her.

Sometimes I wonder who is more reconciled with death: men, or women?

Women, after all, bring life into the world, and therefore, we are a kind of debtor.

What is given is taken in turn.

I'm so very tired... but it's a good sort of tired. It's the sort of tired that you know when you awaken from the sleep you'll wake to a world that has changed for the better. It's the sort of sleep that comes when you know your next steps. It's the sort of sleep that comes when you fall into slumber knowing that you can do better, and that you will do better.

When did I become so indecisive in my life? Perhaps when I left those who usually made the decisions for me. I want so many things, but I fear the consequences of acting out on them. I've been shielded from those consequences for so long that it is hard for me to deal with them when they come up, and to fight or stand my ground when it is challenged.

If I am to be worth anything to anyone, I will have to learn to stand on my own feet. That means standing up for my right to try for what I want. Even if failure is certain, at least I can say I tried. At least others can say that I have courage, even in the face of defeat.

If rejection is my fate, then I want to see it and hear it myself.

Dear Scholars,

Let it be known that a grouping of Selikis is a BELLOW of Selikis. Yes, write it in all capital letters! It should be shouted!

Hands blistered, feet sore, back aching, and still I smile to have the blessings I do in this life-- and all of them, or most of them, in the form of the friends who love me, and whom I love in return. There is no end to this feeling, no bottom to this well. I am the most fortunate of women.

Relationship Note on Cadern

Some time ago, I wrote to the Crown Court for a consultation regarding practices within our own territories. That they were in no way obligated to bat so much as an eyelash my way yet responded so promptly speaks volumes to their civility. Not to mention Lord Cadern wasn't AT ALL as boring as I thought a Magistrate was going to be! No offense, anybody.

I do not enjoy the dark. I like even less being alone in the dark. The things we do for love. For family.

I have another action to take. Each day that passes, each morning waking up more tired than the last... I said I would wait, but why?

If your own personal pain could ease the suffering of your loved ones... Is it not your duty to accept that pain knowing that it helps those you care for?

Not enduring it is selfish. I know what must be done.

Relationship Note on Danae

I wholeheartedly concur with my brother's words concerning Sergeant Danae Russo.
She has gone above and beyond the call of duty with her work for House Malvici.

I have my song again!

I would like the following people for risking life and limb to help me get it back: Princess Tikva Grayson, Baroness Lucita Saik, Sister Sophie Valardin, Marquessa Reigna Keaton, Lady Miranda Rubino, Sir Jeffeth Bayweather, and Squire Sparte Grayfellow.

These people went on an arduous journey on my behalf, at great personal risk to themselves, and I owe them much. They are amazing people, my friends and family, as well as everyone who volunteered to go along with them. We had quite the adventuring party, and each showed off their strengths admirably. I am proud to be associated with such an amazing group of people. They shall have my love and gratitude forever.

You sit on the bench, in solitude. There are others there, but still you are alone.

There is no sound but that of your breathing, the scratch of your quill on the paper.

The only being looking at you is yourself, a mirror reflection that seems to grow, to become more than you are or can possibly be. And you wonder. Can I live up to my own expectations? Am I making too much of myself? Should I even bother to try?

It grows heavy, the weight of all the misgivings, worries, fears. So heavy.

Almost too heavy.

But there is light. The rising dawn brings with it hope, and the thought that trying is half the battle. That giving up is no way to live.

I want more for these people - my family, my friends, my children to be. And if that means I must fight for it, so be it.

Oh, dear.

It has been a while! I mean, for me to write. I feel bad about that - the Seraph from my childhood would definitely make unhappy noises about me neglecting my duty to Vellichor. But! In my defense, I have been writing a LOT of stuff, just not in journals. Letters, ledgers, financial plans, more letters, instructions to factors, requests to suppliers, MORE LETTERS.

There's been a lot of writing, is what I'm saying. And when it was all done, I've mostly just flung myself into bed and slept until I had to get up and start it all again. I've finally gotten a chance to reduce the paperwork to something of a dull roar, and be able to reconnect with a few friends, not to mention get started on other projects. I'm excited about them! It's all very exciting!

But I'm going to try to be better about the writing of journals. I don't want Vellichor to frown or be sad.

Another Compacty lesson! It's okay for Fluffy people to tell people how to defend themselves! Or how to spend their money! Well! I'm going to buy my Pyran Fireweave regardless of what Fluffy people say! I think people should hug more and be mean less!
