Journal,
I have to make a conscious effort to be okay...
Today... I just don't have the effort.
I am tired.

All my trunks are packed, the venues are booked and half the actors are waiting at Tydehall. Or Tyde Hall? No one seems to agree. Maybe Tyde Hall is the house seat in Tydehall? I'll have to ask someone when I get there. That seems like a good way to make fast friends.

It is a very busy time to be leaving Arx for so long. Hopefully everyone is still here when I return. Or at least most people. There are a few people I could do without.

Should the worst happen, my favorite sister (even if parentage may not agree) can have my Lamby back. Honestly, he smells a bit more than I remember. Apparently fifteen years can be rough on a stuffed lamb. Give my notes for unfinished plays to my patron. Ownership of Steve can pass to the scholar Rinel. And to my best friend, B, I leave the knowledge that I died sad that we would never again share a beer and have one of those intense conversations about writing plays that we were so known for. I leave my books to my favorite neighbor. Most of them are borrowed from the Gilded Page and you probably owe Lady Monique a lot of silver. Burn my blacks, anything in there worth reading has been told to someone.

And to one other, I do love you.

(And to any who might reply to this saying 'me? you love me?!' of course I do. I love you very much!)

Two new books have been added to the Cultural Stacks in the Gilded Page and I couldn't be more proud of the authors!

The first is "The Discerning Noble's Guide to Not Passing out at a Redrain Party: A Socialite's Tale" by the incomparable Princess Gwenna Redrain. I suspect this might be based on true events; it is sage advice.

The second is "Ten Principles of War - A pamphlet on armed warfare" and it is by none other than my handsome, talented, most wonderful husband, Lord Corban Telmar. I'm not at all biased when I say this is one of the great works of war strategy and I'm beyond proud to host it in the Gilded Page.

Are you looking to increase the future population, Aunt Margerie?

Been a while since I've been in the city. Flamboyant as I remember it. Witnessed a dance competition - don't understand dance but some of the music was good and the acrobatics were in some cases quite impressive. Narrowly missed witnessing a duel, which would probably have been more interesting. Hopefully.

Talk with Ford proved enjoyable. Had much to catch up on. Catalana organized family dinner. Quite informative. Been out of touch for so long. Looking forward to catching up with more family members. Possibly over drinks.

Sad about lack of steak at the family dinner.

You're a good knight, Marquessa. There's a lot to learn from your example.

I thought I'd let you know.

What a truly wonderful evening that allowed me to catch up a bit with some dear friends and hopefully has lead to making new ones. Sadly some House business drug me away sooner than I would have liked, but considering the august company of the evening, they surely could understand.

I have the distinct honor and pleasure of hosting the next event, which I promise to announce in the very near future.

My thanks to the always elegant and eloquent Princess Cassima Thrax as well! How very fortunate I am to call her one of my dearest friends and confidants.

The boat race approaches. It was an incredible, if not exhausting, pleasure to participate last year. I eagerly look forward to winning again, with the tireless help of the greatest rowers in all the land.

Dare-oh-vie. Insert obvious assessment here.

Relationship Note on Eirene

I think my sister Eirene might try to swap me. I have read between the lines of her recent communications and it seems all too obvious.

If you are reading this and I have vanished and Eirene looks too innocent when she tells you she has no idea where I am....

Find me and help me!

What if you discuss the idea of people? Or the ideas of people? Or what if you discuss people's ideas of people? Or the ideas people have when people share their ideas?

The possibilities are endless.

Relationship Note on Karadoc

Were you the one at the ladies' night, who was talking to the Baroness? You can always donate the skirt to the Shrine of Jayus, if you feel it should be displayed! Please send it along with a courier if you'd like.

I just /know/ that I should have worn that skirt that I hastily created, Lucita. It was really fucking fashionable, too. I borrowed one of the more recently used linen tablecloths for it, and, the wine stains made quite the fetching pitter-pattern of polka-dots across it. But I left it at the Tower and completely forgot about it. Too bad, so sad. Better for me. It wouldn't be wise to raise the ire of an entire room of very powerful ladies --

Great minds discuss ideas. Small minds discuss people.

I feel like I have a headache. I should go work this off in the training center.

My name is Jev. (Jeh-v).

How do I pronounce yours? Is it dear-o-v-eye? Durr-oh-vay? Dair-eh-vah-eye? It is a very interesting name.

Relationship Note on Margerie

The mental imagine of Margerie and the type of ladies she would surround herself doing something as tame as knitting is almost inconceivable.

If they are kitting, it is clearly a front for a much more ambitious effort.
