The man's honor would be best served by the man standing for himself, not hiding behind his kin after refusing to do so.

Relationship Note on Mirari
I do not know how this woman finds the time to be so amazing at so many things. Seamstress, jeweler, scent-maker, and more. Now, the Sword of Lenosia and control of the Mirrorguard. Is there nothing you cannot do, Mistress Mirari?
You have nothing but my respect and my heartfelt congratulations on this appointment! You deserve it.
Just get some rest from time to time too.
And drinks? We should have those soon.

Relationship Note on Fairen
My brother is not going without punishment. He currently does penance in the Shrine of Gloria for his own breach of etiquette with regards to the honor duel. I leave that between him and Gloria. But I will not stand by and allow him to be harassed and beset by those who hold a personal vendetta against him.

There is much that has gone on the past few weeks, some which is worthy of the whites, and others which is best left to blacks. However, I do feel compelled to speak a few things.
One, I am deeply grateful to Lord Cristoph and all that his family has done for me over my years of service. It was his father's decision to grant my knighthood which has been the turning point of my life. Vivian's death would have been my undoing without the challenges that knighthood set before me. The trust given to me when I was handed Queensguard has shaped my steps even more so. As I step into more challenging roles my gratitude only increases.
To serve House Laurent is the highest honor of my life.
Two, I have been remiss in speaking my gratitude to Dame Alexis Wyrmfang. After an injury sustained assisting House Greenmarch I found myself quite below what I would consider physical peak. I approached Alexis to assist me in regaining my edge. Considering the outcome of the most recent Telmar Gauntlet event, it should go without saying that it worked. My thanks to her, and her most excellent tutelage.

Nothing against Derovai personally, but I always enjoyed your spin on current events in the Commoner's Bulletin when you were handling such updates. You have a since of dramatic timing that made even the most mundane event entertaining. While I appreciate the man who has taken the mantle to keep everyone informed, I would love it if you would consider every once in a while adding your unique flare.
Disclaimer: yes, I know I am not the bulletin's intended audience but I could not applaud an author that has always captured my attention.

Relationship Note on Lark
As a Whisper, I find it my place to comment when I see a peer of the realm conducting a breach of etiquette. As a Champion, I pay particular attention to duels of honor and the social mores that surround them, and am very outspoken about this.
Not only that, as a Devotion of Limerance, the ties of Fealty and the implications of the actions of a noble lord toward their vassals are within my sphere to comment on. My word is not law. But it does not come from nothing. I spoke nothing but truth on what the actions of your brother in refusing the challenge implied, though I admit that I may become overly passionate on occasion and as is only human, biased towards my own side by my personal feelings toward Prince Barric - personal feelings which stemmed from my interpretation of our past interactions, and which came out later, harshly and unnecessarily.
I stand by the logic and the intent of my words, though I acknowledge they were barbed. I stand by my honor. I will gladly accept any challenge to prove them before Gloria. If I am worth notice for public chastisement to my honor, why do I not have the right to defend it?
I will not be the one issuing the challenge. I was happy to leave it to House Grayson.
Either way, your brother will not receive further comment from me, and these will be my last unsolicited remarks on this whole affair.

Spirit Leathers. I stumbled upon this shop by accident - I was freezing, it looked warm - and within I found some of the most beautiful craftsmanship I've seen yet in the city. Of course, I couldn't leave without a little something for myself. /Somethings/ in the form of a beautiful white leather corset and a silk skirt to match.
It is my hope to have many returns to see what else will be on offer.

Writing the Commoner's Bulletin was exhausting, but there are times I miss it. Like right now, when I'd love to be reporting on Thrax's painfully slow march toward ending slavery, or Grayson's masterful ability to tirelessly serve (and save) the Compact all while making themselves look so bad, or certain Blissper making her personal bedroom activities (or lack thereof) so overt (how dare a Lycene discuss such things!), or even another scathing rebuke by Father Orazio.
And it's not that Derobai cannot handle it! But does he really capture the tawdry drama behind it all? But, then, could I?
I should see about hiring Prince Niklas to put this drama to paper, so it might show at the Black Rose.
Suppose I will settle for adding to the growing stack of whites this incident has provoked.

I still consider Lumen family, so she has an open invitation!
Also, we do have a contract with the Whispers. Though Lumen should not feel obligated to show up because of that!
And if Lumen does show up, I would like her to be able to relax and enjoy the prepared meal rather than have to practice her very incredible peace-keeping skills!
Unless she wanted to.
Maybe I'll just have Prince Niklas play the banjo until everyone's mad at him instead.

Coral, whom was a former thrall and pressed into service for a blacksmith in her adolescence for a crime that - well, isn't my fucking business based on the glare I'm getting - was a little excited to hear the news issued by the Highlord of Thrax today. Truly. She almost smiled. She left too quickly to offer my entire comment--
'Working toward reform isn't abolishing an old culture. It's a step toward creating a new one. House Saik supports this change.'
