Relationship Note on Isolde

How very unlycene of you, sweet Princess. My adoring fans love the scandal. And, I will have you know, I can't be blamed for the broken glass.

I think I am getting more used to things in Arx. It seems the more I encounter, the more impressed I become with some of the warriors here. Perhaps this stay won't be as dull as I thought.

People are talking about what? Proteges?

[It is recorded that Artur looks somewhat blank until the concept is explained to him]

Noooooooo Nononono. Not doing that. That sounds like a lot of work.

Relationship Note on Kael

A lovely dinner with the Count and Countess Keaton. If someone has yet to take them upon their offer of hospitality, I assure you, do go and you will be quite pleasantly surprised in their reception.

Of course business was discussed, I do not believe that I can go anywhere without speaking business, but the additional conversation of family matters, understanding Arx, and the politics that go on within, they were superbly well prepared and I left feeling educated.

Again, I cannot say enough about this wonderful couple and I do look so forward to furthering the relations between our two houses.

Relationship Note on Apollis

Everyday, I too, am gravely disappointed that you aren't your sister Astraea.

She wouldn't get in trouble at my father's bar, would she?

At least Alistair is a classy man and won't have a wheelbarrow made for you.

Relationship Note on Fatima

I hosted a small dinner to introduce Princess Fatima to my sisters. I am honored that she attended and agreed to come to the Order of the White Lily induction ceremony with me. She seemed only mildly disappointed that I was not in fact my sister Astraea.

Relationship Note on Josephine

Without a doubt, the finest jeweler in the city! I can still hear Gwenna's squealing about the ring I got her for her birthday (for which you are most welcome oh light of my life since I know you read these).

There is no shortage of excellent craftsmen in Arx, it's true, but ones who don't have a six-month waiting list are something of a rarity. Everyone should visit her shop immediately, if not sooner.

Relationship Note on Zoey

My little girl isn't a little girl anymore. Soon she will have children of her own. I am so very proud of the women she has become and wish her the best of luck in her coming marriage.

I knew there was a reason I generally try and avoid being productive.

It's exhausting. Ex-haus-ting.

People in and out and bits of paper and speaking to this person and that person. Never again! Never again! I have determined to be a scandalous layabout the rest of my life!

I would much rather have spent the week climbing trees, or swimming in a lake somewhere, though I suppose I have potentially accomplished something worthwhile? As I once said to my mother - I understand responsibility is important. I just also understand it is incredibly boring!

I'm blocking out the next week to do something frivolous.

In honor of Scholar Harrison, someone we lost this week, we might all do well to consider the path that lays before us. Be it dangerous, go forth with the resolve in your heart to do good and to leave this world in a better place than when you found it. If you choose the more cautious path, you will likely live longer and be healthier and I would never look badly upon you. Those of us who take chances leave our examples for the rest when we fall. Hubris and ego definitely play their part, as it is our domain that they make their own, but I think it is unfair to call his sacrifice anything less than just that, a sacrifice.

Relationship Note on Cambria

Ah, what a lovely evening with the Marquessa and her Marquis. Not only was she direct in such a way that I have yet to see from a Lycene, but her understanding of the needs and desires for business over just base pleasures was both reassuring and enlightening. I do look forward to spending more time with the Mazetti family in the days to come, for there are many projects that we can pool our resources for, aiding and growing both houses from West to South.

You're getting so fancy! A title and everything. I'm going to save up and make you an umbra cloak as congratulations.

Relationship Note on Kent

Once again my cousin shows that he is indeed the man best suited for the Master of Coin. His skills in directing and distributing the men and women that we have in Fair Harbour, while working with the Counties and their needs, is second to none. As our fair march grows, I am thankful to have him at my side, aiding with all of his skills at making things not only efficient, but even more effective for us all.

Relationship Note on Samael

Everyone's talking about proteges and it kind of reminded me that I finally got a patron.

Lord Samael Bisland has offered to take me under his wing and teach me about the law and stewardship. Pays me too.

I think it's a horrible deal for him. Great for me though.

(Doodles of lions prancing about in a field of grass cover the bottom of the page, each with a name tag of Bisland family members.)

It's an intriguing idea - and one that I will need to consider the merits of. A protege. Likely not, as anyone that I took under my patronage would be (literally, perhaps) be drowning in homework. Reading lists. Experiments.

Relationship Note on Vitalis

Vitalis has returned to Arx once again, I dare say I am the only one that crosses their fingers when I admit to being hopeful that this time it will be for more than a fortnight. While we have not had a proper chance to catch up, it has been nice to see his smiling face within the manor.

The servants, I note, also seem equally pleased by his smiling face. The Marquis and Theron will just have to accept the fact that they are now, as I have heard it said, 'old news.'

Last night I had the good pleasure of dining with the Harthalls. It is not often that myself and the Marquis find ourselves playing the role of guests, and I confess it was an enjoyable sensation. More enjoyable, however, were Marquessa Sunniva and her husband, Marquis Orvyn. Each were wonderfully charming, and the conversation was superb, for all that we spent a great deal of time on introducing ourselves to one another and navigating small talk while we found our stride together. I look forward to future get-togethers with them, and hope that they feel the same.
