My lady, to say such things without proof is to stir up trouble and slanderous. Please provide your proof.

Cousin, I think I am going to remember the VERY GOOD ADVICE in your friend's poem. I am already good at all of those things. HAH!
"Feigned an annoying laugh, a grating sound
Then sang purposely so bad that dogs did howl
And ate things to make her breath smell foul "

Wait... is one who speaks in the name of the Crown making a public statement that House Valardin has infiltrated and is spying on House Grayson?

Relationship Note on Grazia
Oh! What happy times. I offer you House Igniseri's most heartfelt congratulations. I'm certain were Vincere and Pietro be here, they'd offer theirs as well, as they had the closer relationship to House Rubino. Prince Aiden is a fine man, and I hope you'll both be happy.

Congratulations on the happy announcement! Expect many, many dinner invitations, as House Igniseri enjoys a close relationship with both House Rubino and House Zaffria as our lieges. This reminds me -- I need to schedule another dinner! But, alas, it'll have to be next week. I hope you settle in well, once you become part of House Rubino.

I know precisely how that first meeting came about with the princess - sheer luck, of course! A woman with her own stories, and a sense of adventure she carefully hides behind her duties. And yes, I do owe you another story quite soon, don't I? Probably more than one, at this rate.

What do tales of diffused arguments, amazing wolves, brave otter pirates, and mischievous princesses, a lineup of baby-bumps in small, medium and large sizes, luxurious pampering and delightful company have in common? (Other than a grumpy Karadoc who got deserted for one night, just one mind you, and left with the paperwork while I went camping with Firevipers, Graysons, Thrax and others, I mean.) Glamping! Never knew camping could be so comfortable! Waking to the melodies of songbirds, the grrs and rumbling noises of some of the animals was a refreshing change, lets do it again sometime.

To marry! Oh, I hope you will be happy and content. Duchess Grazia can not help but appreciate your abilities. New goals, new and different responsibilities, new delightfully amusing and talented relatives and you will be close enough to drop by often and visit your god-child. Be well, my friend, be happy.

My arrival in Arx has been a great boon thus far. I spoke with Guildmaster Joscelin Arterius, the leader of the Crafter's Guild. After speaking with her about my burgeoning talents as an artisan, as well as my desire to learn, improve, and eventually own a shop, she kindly provided me with a generous loan that will help allow me to turn my dreams into a reality. I won't let her, or the Crafter's Guild, down. I will learn, improve, and start a business that will allow me to pay the Crafter's Guild back for their kindness. The days of being a farmer and shepherd are becoming increasingly distant. I will make my family proud.

Relationship Note on Echo
Echo, cheerful and _forgiving_, a beautiful high spirited young cousin. Certainly everyone knows that, yes, I hope, Of course. Even when one sings a story of some of her youthful escapades back in Granato to a group of Glampers, she'll just...er. grin and laugh, right? By the way 'who' was the man? Echo never said his name!
Echo's Retribution
All women seem perfect his friends did say
When you've indulged in to much wine today
Eventually they will have flaws that show
He scoffed at the words and a courting did go
Oh, the man went courting, or so he said
But too much wine had gone to his head
A lovely woman he saw so proud and so fair
With creamy skin, gray eyes and white hair
Soon the lovely woman found she was courted
Or so all the Granato gossips had reported
Soon Echo decided to drive the man away
For too deep in the wine he'd always stay
And the lovely woman he thought he'd found
Feigned an annoying laugh, a grating sound
Then sang purposely so bad that dogs did howl
And ate things to make her breath smell foul
And a courting he did go, a courting he did go
But the flaws that mattered were 'his', you know
Stayed to drunk to see Echo as she really could be
He deserved to be tricked, that's plain to see.

I will make some allowance for this being true, though I do not seek to boast of myself in any way by doing so. My apologies continue to stand, and I am ready to weather whatever mild, or major, complaints you may wish in recompense for the unpleasant position which my actions put you in.

Rest assured, I am still fond of you, idiocy and all. For all that I make this most mild complaint, I remain convinced that the space between you and your duty is one of the most dangerous places in this or any other realm. Woe to any that would place themselves there.

My dear friend Lady Margerie Keaton,
I must apologize for the unpleasant sight which my bleeding caused. I do vow to continue to work on my speed.
However, honesty compels me to state that I cannot wait for your words to protect you or any other in the future. I have no wish to die, but to do so protecting others would be a death to be proud of.
I do hope I can be forgiven for this small flaw.

You seem to have a Valadrin spy in your household staff.
I am deeply sorry for your misfortune. You may, in the interest of ever having an ounce of fun, wish to fire him.
Love,
Saoirse. A Velenosa. Much fun.

(What follows is a terrible drawing in ink that has been watered down with wine - the resulting image, dried upon the page is the dark, purplish-black of a prune.
There's a stick figure with 'Karadoc' beautifully scripted over its head. The figure's eyes are uneven, mistmatched. Mouth open, with flailing stick figure arms and legs. It could be running away from a wobbly shape of the artist's imaginative rendition of a thing - of some sort that's been labeled as 'Work.')

By blessed Gloria's grandiose glands, I should have remained asleep.
After many attempts to ignore them, I could not neglect them farther. I have been warily eyeing up the well-organized stacks of paperwork that have started to surround me (an administrative ambush, I think) at my desk, all demanding my attention. I tend to them, as needs must, until my eyes grow bleary --
Marcos better get his ass home from the Greens, or whatever wonderful place he whisked off to, because this is starting to feel like /real/ work. I need wine. Please, Scholars, send for wine.
Ugh.
