Relationship Note on Hadrian
In that regard, he has never disappointed. Which, as I have said to my family many times, is precisely one of the reasons why I chose him for my husband. Few are the men or women who would not choose to punish the House. Few are the men or women who would have even set aside their personal hopes and dreams to secure the continued honor of the family and seat they were to lose - all because their forebear signed a contract years ago. Whatever may have passed between us up until now, it is my desire to put to ink that the once Duke Hadrian Malvici is a man of conviction, perseverance and principle.
He works tirelessly for other people, whether it is with the Arvum Refugee Relief Group, or on a more individual scale. His concern for his former vassals of House Saik is nothing other than touching. Even Donkey Knights, an entirely non-serious (except when it is), light-hearted affair is done in the spirit of providing levity to others. As I spend my evening recuperating, and thinking about the past few years, I realize that I cannot recall a time when he has done something for himself.
Our child was so important to him he even spent months acquiring medical knowledge and skills so that he could deliver the baby himself. While not something I wish to spend overlong on, I will impart this: I was not convinced at first. I was barely convinced in the end. As a vain woman, as a first time mother, the very idea was less than thrilling, for reasons that hardly need elaborating. Now that it is over, however, I am glad for it.
Whatever may have come before must be consigned to the past. The man I call husband has fathered a future Guardian. He is now one of us, through bonds of blood. And again I say, I made the right choice. I hope that, even if it is not now, Hadrian feels the same.

I also cannot help but draw parallels between Shamanism and my own faith, though I have only begun to delve its mysteries. It, too, is anchored in dualities. Just as each of us have a Dark Reflection that we must distinguish in ourselves by time spent in active contemplation, so too much the mundane soul be distinguished from the free soul. Then of course, the similarities of the spirit world and the Shining Lands. It is no wonder that these two faiths have become at least somewhat integrated in some regions of Arvum.
The importance of sacrifice is intriguing as well, and while not as direct a parallel on the surface, it still bears certain similarities to aspects of the worship of Tehom. What is our Dark Reflection, if not the sacrifice of the view one may have of oneself as righteous and good, in order to not simply give into our passions, but to channel them to achieve a nobler purpose?

I'm not as good with words as you are, but all the lovely things you've written about me are very much returned. But of course you know that already. Anyway, I'm going to inundate you with paintings, and bake mountains of cakes for you.

It was an honor to be there with you, to welcome your son to this world.
Remember to drink the tea I left. I know it tastes foul, but it will help you heal.
