Book,
The joys of being a parent are endless, it is truly a change in my being I wasn't expecting and I still have not understood exactly what and how these changes have taken me.

Relationship Note on Reigna
Today, the Keatons were -- after much dedication and hard work on behalf of their people -- elevated to the rank of Marquis and of Marquessa. I'm quite pleased for Oakhaven, and on a far more personal note, for them. After all, it was Reigna Keaton alone who tried to save me at Stormwall after my foolish attempt to protect our fleeing wounded and healers, who had no other guard save Dame Harrow to cover their retreat. And though she was forced to flee, she was the only one who'd tried at all. Were it not for her moment of aid to my guards, I may not have lived to pen this now. My respect for the woman is, needless to say, immense. That I do not know her better is a regret, and one that I ought to remedy soon.

Book,
I have heard that history repeats its self, I know those who were before that now walk the streets, but does that mean that history is destined to repeat its self? If it is, then perhaps we should more closely study that which we know of our history. There is so much we have yet to even scratch the surface on knowing.
The things you sit around and ponder during the night when sleep evades you...Perhaps I should drink more.

During the Assembly of Peers I considered bringing up the most recent death in the lowers. It is hard for me to accept that the Iron Guard needs no help when Countess Stahlben makes the third northern born or northern placed noble to die in the alleyways. Suffice to say those who seek trouble often find it and she was always one to seek trouble or make her own.
Shame.
Shame.

The eldest of the Halfshav cousins and least offensive of the lot. Even less offensive than Khanne who is generally beloved.

The beard judging competition was interesting. The Redrains are an entertaining bunch, and the Keaton lady with her fake beard was as entertaining, if not more.

It is incredible to me how many peers think that law enforcement can be solved by throwing men at a troublesome district like soldiers until everything is dead. Those are the actions of a tyrant, not of a just leader.

Relationship Note on Thorley
I have to say I am quite the lucky woman. Despite the ups and downs, I wouldn't change anything. And thank you, Lady Khanne. I wasn't exactly thinking to announce things this way, but Thorley is quite skilled at pleasant surprising and delighting me.

Relationship note on: The Keatons
I was filled with so much joy at the Assembly of Peers today. Never, ever before have I felt such joy at one of these gatherings. Count Kael and Countess Reigna stood before us all, and with a LOUD AND RAUCOUS chorus of Ayes, the Keaton lands have advanced from a county to a March. Congratulations to Marquis Kael Keaton and his wife, Marquessa Reigna Keaton! I could not be happier! Not only for them, but for all of the Keatons! Your house is a hard working and devoted one, and I am proud to be not only an ally, but to able to count so many of you as my good friends as well.
I should be commended for not running up and hugging them both after it was official. I wanted to. I so wanted to.

It really happened! I could not be more proud of my husband. Marquis Kael Keaton. He has grown so much, come so far. Watching him standing before the King of the Compact, Duke Cristoph Laurent and attest to the growth of our lands was possibly the proudest moment of my life. That or hearing the chorus of ayes from our peers.
We have accomplished so much and we still have so much to do. It has been an honor to serve the vassals and villagers, the farmers and soliders, the merchants and scholars, all of our people. Keaton will continue to see to our people, to lead by example, to be righteous in our faith, and loyal to our lieges, vassals and allies. We do this not for ourselves, but for our children, for our people, for the Compact.

It's becoming too much of a pain in the ass to walk home in the middle of the night in the snow.
But I like my bed, gotten it just the way I like it in the barracks. Valarians's snoring a couple bunks down is kind of oddly comfortable. Like reminding me that everyone in the room is still alive.
That's good.
Because it'd be a pain in the ass to walk into a room full of dead people.

I am ever so excited to have the Tournament of Roses officially announced! Preparations will begin immediately, and I am positive it will be a major success. Of course, I would be a liar if I did not put to paper my nervous excitement. An event so large, it will surely be a challenge! And for any that read this who were interested in helping, I'll need a few more weeks before I have any ability to make use of volunteers.
