Ahhhhhh, this weather recently has been quite exceptional! It's important to just enjoy the small things in life sometimes, as I did today. Sure it may seem frivolous and unimportant to then write about it but dammit how else am I supposed to get anyone to care about my inner thoughts? What about when I had an exceptional day? Shouldn't the world have the ability to look back on that? Ahhh, think of the generational significance of our day to day minutia. Perhaps the next step is multiple daily entries tracking the important individual events of the day.
I think maybe we'll go sailing tomorrow.

Relationship Note on Fergus
Fergus Redrain
We met inside the Redrain Study. It was a fluke, really, a meeting arranged due to the complaints of sisters. Freja and I decided that we would exchange siblings because we always had the greatest ideas when we were together. I am not sure how she fared out regarding Valerius, though I am almost certain she threatened to hit him over the head.
I on the other hand met Fergus, and we talked within that study for hours. He smiled, which I heard was a rare sight at that time, and it was warm and gentle. He was deeper than what he allowed people to see, softer than he wished anyone to understand. He was someone I could speak to about anything, to gauge an honest response regardless of topic. Even after that original meeting, we met often to share a drink when we could before life took hold of both of us, and for those memories I will always have a soft spot for The Spirits.

A rare constellation came together in one place a short while, and it was a great evening: Sir Flop, Duke Vercyn, Vala Khanne, Lord Arik, Lord Percephon, Lord Mirk, and Lady Carita. I truly love such wonderful moments!

Relationship Note on Rook
It's hardly 'trying' if one succeeds.
I am however glad that this learning experience will be remembered. It is the least I can do for one I had the pleasure to work with over a substantial period of time.
Though I will note that you, unlike a distressing amount of the local population, stopped at the first drink.

This week I went to the Catharsis. It is not my usual kind of venue, but as ever, I can learn something about myself stepping outside of my comfort zone.
Unfortunately what I learned was that his highness, Prince Mydas Velenosa, is trying to poison me. I hear what he served me something called Foolsbane and, it is true, I was quite the fool to accept.
Never again.

Those who insist "it will never work" are usually the first to fall prey to the enthusiasm of success.
Those who pretend to know just how others will behave in a particular situation are the true masters of projection.

Relationship Note on Barric
I have been feeling emotional lately, reminiscing of days long gone, when things seemed simpler. So for my first memory, I will write down one of Barric Grayson.
I can not remember the event, a ball of some sort held inside the Velenosa estate. There were so many people there, and I was new to the city and I believe that Calista introduced us. We danced, as is proper, but it certainly was not the dance that was memorable. The three of us sat in an alcove and spoke throughout the evening. We laughed and drank so much that we had not even noticed the rest of the people around us had left. We then had the greatest of ideas, we were going to sneak into the Palace for no reason other than to see if we could. It might not have been the greatest ideas considering, but the three of us were feeling quite brave at this point and we could find no fault in our decision. We tried, and failed among the giggles, to sneak through the city. We made it all the way to the gates of the Palace and then... We turned around and went our separate ways home.
It seems like a lifetime ago, doesnt it? We never did break in.

Seaborn Weaponry has some availability with High Quality Steel armaments. For those who already have such, there is time yet to refine your items to a higher quality. Anyone who might need assistance, or have questions, contact any of your local crafters.

So many refer to themselves and others as creatures from woods, water and air. I myself have been named vixen or little fox by others, and I wear that name with pride. It is has become a name as natural as my own.
Over the years, it has been my great pleasure to shared company with a veritable menagerie -- wolves, bears of black, cinnamon brown and some snow white, foxes, hounds, dragons, griffons, cats, snakes, wildcats, hawks, minx, stags, bulls, old goats, crows, falcons, badgers, sharks, bunnies, martens, lions, little mice, vipers, songbirds and more. The list goes on and on.
I must admit that I enjoy this menagerie of personalities. Now, often when I meet someone I wonder what creature they are, or which resonates with them, and why.

It was a lovely party. Everyone seems to have come for the ring.
Can't say that I much enjoyed whomever dressed their trained pet rats up in children's clothing though. Shameful really.

Something really unusual happened. Maybe this is is common place for others, but Sir Matthew Stoatington - a stoat - arrived at the Deepwood-and-Grayson raffle, an event I found both wondrous and unsettling.
He had an eyeglass, Sir Matthew did. Remarkable in its own right.

Relationship Note on Kace

I spoke to Princess Kace Redrain. Warrior of the North. I asked her as I've asked others before. She sent me a letter, which I've transcribed:
"A soldier is, to me, one who has chosen to take upon themselves the burden of duty and responsibility to others.
Each soldier in an army has agreed to take up arms against whatever threatens, not just their own families, but the families of those around them as well.
A soldier is someone who is willing to take up arms to defend their rights, freedoms, and way of life against those who would seek to subvert or destroy that.
Not every man or woman in an army is a soldier, and not every soldier is in an army.
I've watched simple folks pick up arms to defend their neighbors against an enemy, and I've watched trained fighters flee a battlefield.
A true soldier is willing to lay down his or her life to protect those around them."
It's an interesting view - especially as so many others have considered soldiers to exist in their capacity of being in armies, in the taking of orders, in the duty laid upon them by their oaths of fealty.
But then, I suppose that is where it comes in as well - not just sworn duty, but a duty to each other. In creating a community we will stand for.
I quite like this answer.
