I am told there was discussion of how we remember the fallen at the recent Assembly of Peers.

The Templars and the Knights of Solace are building a place to hold the bones of our honoured dead. A place where we can remember them, where their stories and deeds will be remembered. A place where the greatest amongst us, our heroes, our grandmasters, will have tombs in great halls where pilgrims might consider the price all of us pay to hold onto our way of life.

The Templars, the Knights of Solace, they do not fight alone or separate to the Fealties though. Our disciples mostly find their homes in Grayson, in Valardin, in Thrax, in Redrain and in the Lyceum. So we will build great halls for each of the fealties. And in each we will offer to inter the bones of your knights who died with us facing down the Pirate King at Stormwall, Setarco and at Darkwater Watch. Those who said oaths under Gloria, who were knighted, deserve remembrance and deserve their honouring of that oath to itself be honoured.

We will soon begin the drive to fund this project. It will be built at the home of the Faith, our ancestral birthplace, Sanctum. The Templars and Knights of Solace that guard and tend to it will be drawn from all of the fealties as well. In the interim, as debate over the Hall of Hero continues, know that whatever the outcome we will be here.

Relationship Note on Mayir

I'll admit it. Seeing a Mayir getting his Gray Crow makes me grin like a cream-fed cat. That kind of love is a rare one. Nice to see.

Here's to calmer seas, keeping the wind in your sails and good tides in your future.

Keep it on the surface, Captain. We got a long journey ahead.

In the most congenial way possible, I invite you to seek out one more educated on the subject than yourself who can actually speak.

Relationship Note on Brogan

I could say a thousand or more things about how incredible you are and how very grateful I am to you, my dearest Lord Brogan. However, in kindness to whoever reads this I will limit myself to this.

Thank you for all that you have done. Truly, you are a the rarest and most brilliant of treasures and men.

How I am so lucky to have you in my life I do not know, but I thank the gods for it.

Relationship Note on Reigna

I have spoken to Reigna and she has asked that I work in the Lower Lower Boroughs as a physician and apothecary. I have agreed. I will be making a lot of house calls. I also asked that she send a letter of introduction for me to Mae.

Goodwoman Petal Penrose is a kind woman and a very skilled artisan. I feel fortunate that her work is the first I have purchased in Arx.

She's here! She's here! It look a lot of yelling, but my new ship is here!

The Gray Crow! She's a beauty! Even newer than the Crow's Nest was when the pirates took her.

Thanks to all of my princess and other friends that helped me yell at the people on the docks and get a slip for her to be built. And to Thrax and Velenosa, too.

Next step: Making sure Thena blesses her within an inch of her life. And a formal christening party!

Relationship Note on Irisa

Dame Irisa doesn't seem very talkative. I'll have to get her into a smaller setting so that I can determine if it was due to lack of having anything noteworthy to say during the gathering of our vassals.

Maybe she's become mute without my hearing of it.

Being someone who generally tries to avoid the Thirteenth as much as possible in the first place, sitting in reflection within its shrine was...uncomfortable, on more than one level. The Silent Reflections, of course, were extremely disturbing, in their eternally silent vigil, unable to communicate in any effective manner. It very much reinforced the sacred vow we take as Scholars - and the very serious punishment for breaking it. We have a heavy responsibility to Vellichor and the people to whom secrecy and accuracy is entrusted with their written thoughts. The punishment is fitting.

As far as the self-reflection to be found there...staring into those dark surfaces and seeing one's self and forced to ponder the duality of one's nature....well. That is nothing new, but it is not something to be embraced, but rather recognized, and then consciously fought off. Balance is too easily tipped, and the dark side does enough to try to claw its way in without accepting it.

Relationship Note on Ford

He is growing up so quickly, I've heard many mothers say the same of their children.

Thank you for letting me visit today, it means the world.

It has been a joy to catch up with faces that I have not seen since returning from Stormwall. Although my moods have been ever shifting and my dreams afford me little and less sleep there is a measure of comfort in family, friends, and those I've been recently acquainted. I have finally taken more time to walk through the city and it still seems as new and intriguing as from the first day I've arrived. There is a quietness in between training and my usual duties to walk the streets in the early morning and late night hours, to watch people gather and banter, or sit quietly in soft tones of conversation.

Relationship Note on Mia

I think what I enjoy most about Countess Mia Riven is that she knows when business needs discussing and that it should maintain priority. So often I see people attend meetings on dire subjects, only for some fool to try to draw the focus of the discussion to themselves through near-childish antics. Countess Mia knows how to keep a meeting on track, cut through the giggles and bad jokes, and ultimately get things done.

I see something of myself in her personality, actions, and demeanor. There are moments when she is forthright and every word that she speaks is with purpose. Cold and resolute. Wrapped in the rigid security of well forged armor. It is those moments that she is far more like her husband, Count Thesarin, than I believe she even realizes.

Yet abruptly she can surprise many with how she slips from her metaphorical armor or simply pulls some internal lever and abruptly becomes something else entirely. Warm, compassionate, tolerant, and more. She is an example that many should strive to follow.

She has adopted the philosophy of morning pie and somewhere on the inside of me, that makes me very happy. I just hope that she doesn't take it too far. The results could be disastrous.

Relationship Note on Peri

Lady Peri's devotion to House Seliki is admirable. She recognizes the importance of a strong standing force to deter aggressors and has begun the long process of rebuilding. While it is a weighty task ahead of her I'm confident that she will not only achieve her goal, but surpass it.

As well I have to commend her willingness to ask a daunting question. The answer could have gone quite differently than it did, but at least she had the courage to ask it.

Relationship Note on Caith

I have met many a wonderful prince and princess here in Arx, but there is something about Princess Caith that just makes the world seem brighter when she is around.

She is a truly sweet lady and I am so happy to have finally been able to speak with her at length.
