Relationship Note on Samantha

How dare I not write a white entirely for you. Samantha Deepwood. At the risk of angering others, you are the favorite of those I got to share my childhood home. Those that were brought to stay, I don't think either of us want to earn Lailah's wrath.

My parents generosity has gifted me a broad range of people to whom I may consider to truly know me. I am thankful to have you as one. I hope to be as much a part of your children and wards lives as Gabriel was of yours.

Relationship Note on Kenna

Did we discover if we are anticipating squirrel babies?

Voice of Bisland. Another title, but this weighs far heavier from my lips than a sword ever might. I would say that I know exactly what to do, and its only true so far as I know who speak with.

Samantha, a dear sister who I will never call otherwise, is the one I speak to when things shake and I am uncertain.

Lumen, for when I have wronged someone and must make right.

Father, for when steel is needed in my spine more than my hand. The most difficult lesson I have ever had laid upon me.

Zoey, when family matters most and I feel need to be valued.

Kenna. Kenna Whitehawk. When things must be done and so much else.

Relationship Note on Norwood

Thank you for your hearty welcome, to a young man who's only bound to you was by blood alone. The streets of Arx are wondrous and invigorating, but they may prove too much for my Oathlands heart and soul. I thought that I could carouse endlessly and spread my music as far as I can. I learn Temperance, Uncle, from you.

Thank you.

No one knows what killed the Marquis of Storm March and his warriors.

But one can make an educated guess.

Once again women around me are getting pregnant....I wonder if it is something in the water......

Life has gone from the excitingly dangerous to the every day normalcy once more. It was interesting there was a comment made recently that I threw myself into danger often and I couldn't help thinking it wasn't as often as all that.

Besides, I think living is dangerous enough as it is. Not that I look for death, but I also feel if fear of dying is what stops me from doing what I feel is right, then I would fail as a knight. There is a difference between taking the time and planning to be as safe as you are able, and hiding for fear of meeting the wheel. When I do die, I would like to know I did everything I could to live well and protect the freedom of others to live as well.

Relationship Note on Geraint

Another I was fond of is now gone. I fear I lose more and more each day. I am told that is to be expected. That is the way of things. I confess I prefer it was not.

I had the pleasure of enjoying a some lovely evenings in the company of the Marquis Geraint. He seemed a kind man. A charming and clever man. One I enjoyed the company of and speaking with very much.

I am very much regret that I will never have the chance to speak with him again. I suppose that is the source of my sadness. It reminds me there are many who I am fond of and kept company with that I will one day never see again. I would have enjoyed to getting to know more about him I think.

Rest in peace and love, my lord. Thank you so very much. I wish we could have share more drinks and more conversation.

Relationship Note on Caspian

Well there goes my succession plan....


(Just kidding, of course. Until such time as Zara and I produce a child, my lands are left to my niece Rosalie to manage)

Just in case anyone had any ideas to, if you write me into your will to take over your house when you die I will refuse. I'm more interested in leading The Champions then your lands. Sorry, you can't pin me down with nobility!

Huh. And here I thought assgoblins was a word used to describe what happens after eating curry.

It has been slightly over a year since I stepped down as Voice of Pravus. It was a year that was needed, a year of focusing on myself (this required the most work of all, and is still ongoing), and on renewing my bonds with my closest family and friends.

In that respect, it was not a year wasted.

But my twin, Juliana, is right. I love Pravus, and when asked to step up I couldn't do anything but agree.

The latest news out of the Grey Forest is worrying indeed. Two hundred soldiers lost, among their number the Marquis of House Blackwood. There is little more information than that, so we have no notion of who they faced. There is only this dreadful rumor, supported by his heir's recent proclamation.

Relationship Note on Fredrik

Worth remembering, though I never was a diligent practitioner of that method.

Besides, I expect it requires more than mild ennui to get to that point.

Relationship Note on Mydas

properly done where it won't demean you, howling in outrage can be quite cathartic, in short doses.

Relationship Note on Fredrik

My guess would be some story about a secret bastard, given we've the precedent of not so secret ones attaining far higher titles. Age gap, according to the records, would fit.

Speculation, of course, but I find it more amusing to do than howling in outrage.

Written By Fredrik

I admit to my own rampant confusion in this matter of the new Marquessa. Not outrage, for I know the house is relatively new and things are more fluid, but the fact that a commoner was elevated above several living, breathing members of the Marquis' bloodline is odd, to say the least. I do hope that more will come out to explain this, as it does rail against the traditions of the Compact.

Again, not condemnation, but merely a confusion and hope that more comes forth.

Written By Mydas

Either I entirely missed out on the complete destruction of the rest of the Blackwood family, or the late Marquis decided some commoner was better than any member of his blood to carry on the title.

I'm not sure which is most concerning.

After months, maybe even a year, of debating about procuring an assistant, I have finally done so. As much as I really wish to have a hound like the ones we keep in Farhaven, they are not known for their abilities for taking notes and keeping reminders. One of these days, though! Perhaps a dog is something Lorenzo and I can pick out together once we are married? I rather like that idea actually.
