Do not drink to excess, and spin yourself on a stool in competition with others to see who could outlast the other participants. It ends poorly for all involved, drinkers and observers.

I KNEW IT! I was beginning to doubt myself, but I have to remember - if it smells funny, there's always a source. HAH! Now, to do something about it.

I am relieved that the traditionalists were turned away from stormward and that everyone I cared about in that battle survived to see another day. It does not surprise me to see so many came to Stormward's defense.

Anyone with a touch of sense would know not to believe stories about Eswynders eating their captives after battle.
Traitors are given their due: a cross upon the shore.
Unless these rumormongers are suggesting scavenger birds are subject to our marquis? That would be quite the power. Alas, that is not the case, and I would caution against furthering such ugly lies.

Still farming. Plenty of cabbage will be needed this year as Reveillon grows and Artshall rebuilds. One can't live on honey alone. I do hope everyone is preparing for the bitter winter to come.

Lina is crawling around the halls now. Climbing onto everything. Mostly the dogs. I almost pity them....Then I remember how much they chewed through everything and the pity is quickly replaced with amusement. They've earned it. However, she is taken aside and shown how to respect the dogs just as much. I realize that may seem young, but it's never too young to teach that. She'll learn. Thankfull the dogs have more patience than most people I know.

Perhaps it is not wise to board a ship without having prior knowledge of the situation you are sailing into.
Perhaps ignorance is bliss and your only way to deal with a situation.

I have found that often the best training one can get, is teaching others. It's amazing how much we sharpen up when we work on instructing others

It has been some weeks, but I'm annoyed enough that I ought to go ahead and put it in writing. House Venandi is not, and has never been, a prodigal house. House Venandi is the royal house of the Primasen of Dhiib'andzi, older than the Compact itself by several thousand years. That Arvum is drenched in the blood of my people is no indication of debt to the Arvani; quite the opposite, and the idea that the Compact is in any way *owed* the services of a foreign royal line that has already given everything to protect the peoples of Arvum despite said peoples' scorn and betrayal is, to put it very, very mildly, absurd and insulting.
I understand that it's largely the result of people simply not knowing any of this, or, if they do, not fully grasping the implications, but I also expect that, once told, they stop insisting on being completely and utterly wrong. Or, at the very least, if they do insist on it, they can say it to my face so that *I* can explain - slowly, in small words - that they are completely and utterly wrong, before politely recommending that they sit the hell down and shut the fuck up.
We were allies, not subjects. My hope is that we can be allies again, my belief is that we're all dead or worse if we don't learn how to do that, but House Venandi will not kneel to the Compact any more than it will kneel to the Horned God. House Venandi will not kneel to anyone.

I recently put out a request for writing partners. It was to meet new people in which I might not have reason to meet. You can only run into people by chance when they wish to be met by chance and put themselves in a position to do so. So it was those who lock themselves away in their offices or the archives that I wished to hear from, and I was not disappointed! I look forward to the missives, to read the opinions and experiences of another on the pages. I must say it is one of the better ideas I have had in a long time, and I can not wait to read the next.
