The shop has been going for a few weeks now and seems to be fairing pretty well. I can't keep up with a custom items because they seem to sell faster than I can make them.

Relationship Note on Amarantha
I carved Lady Amarantha a black dog out of wood. It vexes me less and less her nickname for me.

To summarize the week, Rue is a darling, sweet baby angel but she stole my candy. A diet of rum and candy will make me ill so maybe she was trying to save me. Amarantha is always looking out for me. Aunt Eirene has offered to increase my insult vocabulary. Someone is paying people to challenge me to do various things. And I need a few days of bed rest.

Relationship Note on Echo
How do you still get me and Amarantha mixed up?! Do I need to call you by your real name?
My next big journal entry will be the unveiling of your true name. I have decided.

Relationship Note on Agatha
Sometimes there is nothing more enjoyable than reading your Whites. I don't even think we've properly met, but we should. For drinks and conversation, and the stories that I've no doubt you have to tell.

Relationship Note on Agatha
My cousin, Princess Agatha, is a fierce and passionate warrior. She has an effortless beauty with a pureness of heart that I marvel about nearly everyday. Agatha is sincere, funny, and there are few I would rather have my back. Her future husband will be a very lucky man indeed. That said.
I reserve the right to also wage quiet, grumpy, vaguely uncomfortable staring at said lucky future husband for many years to come if she must leave us. Such may be the way of politics, I certainly understand and even embrace. Still. So much staring, which I learned from my mother. It's pretty fearsome.

Relationship Note on Preston
I'm not always at ease with the Orthodox members of the godsworn. I've lived all my time in the Compact in the Crownlands and feel my relationship with the Faith might've been very different if I'd bent the knee among the Valardins. During my time with the Templars, though, I've come to respect Sir Preston's dedication and commitment to Gloria's ideals deeply. The losses suffered at Stormwall were heavy all around, and were felt starkly among the Swords of the Faith. The task ahead of him is not an easy one but he shoulders the burdens of it ably and without complaint. I hope I can be of service as one of Gloria's disciples in the rebuilding and honoring of those Templars who fell.

Relationship Note on Gwenna
I would like to say that UNLIKE my cousin Gwenna, I am weird, slow, and very good with a spear. Oh. And that I smell! HAH! Gwenna would make a great leader and mom, and you men would be LUCKY to have her.
Or not lucky. Cause if you don't marry in to become a Redrain and she hast to leave the family, I am probably gonna glare at you during dinners for all time, and make sure you have to spar me again and again for years to come, and make sure you get a lot of bruises every time.
So. In other words: Gwenna is GREAT, and you should want to marry her! If you make her not a Redrain, I will make wage quiet, grumpy, growling GRRRR at you for years to come.
But she is worth it.
Just remember.
Brusies. So many bruises.
(Scholar, I don't think you HAH! I think you heh. No, in really little letters. You heh a lot.)

It is hard to put to paper what an extraordinary time I had at the garden party and tea event. While I sometimes consider myself vaguely eloquent and with an abundance of words to use, most of them almost fail me now. I will try to capture what, truly, will be treasured memories.
I laughed like I haven't for a very long time. It felt really good. I spent time with some of my dearest friends (Princess Cassima, Lady Fianna to name just two) and family (my brother Artur, my cousin Princess Elgana), as well as made the acquaintances of some truly wonderful new people in Princes Gareth and Barric Grayson, and Princess Sabella. With the potential for new friend I have yet to be introduced to by Sir Jordan Ober.
Plans for monthly social gatherings have also been hatched, which I am greatly looking forward to. I may have a new future sparing partner and I was nearly not-really murdered. What would a true Redrain party be if there were not some sort of sharp object involved? A corgi in a sweater arrived just as I was departing. Truly.
Redrain tea parties are the best tea parties! Not that I am biased by any means. I can hardly wait for the next one. Mistress Valery, Lady Fianna, and Duchess Ann truly outdid themselves and deserve great praise for the event.

Relationship Note on Joscelin
The Guildmistress of the Crafter's Guild is a pleasant, charming woman with an excellent sense of humor. She clearly understands the difference between art for art's sake and art that pleases, and the range between. We had an excellent afternoon conversation and I'm glad to know her. And she's the first to help my plans for what I hope is a fun evening at the Deepwood Manor. All in all, a wonderful first meeting indeed.

Dearest Readers,
Marius and I have returned from Greenhaven. While I truly enjoyed the quiet time with Myrddin and shall forever treasure the precious moments of his childhood, I have missed my family and friends in Arx. My heart was uplifted as we approached the city once more. I do feel so out of touch though.
So much to do and so many people to see!

Why does rebuilding take so long, when the acts by which it is needed can happen in such a short period?
This is something I have mused while at the same time arguing the point that for us to lose something dear to us, we must have first invested into it, be it relationship, or home, or any other thing that we cherish. And yet even then, it is taken, set ablaze, cut down, all of it can be, so final, so swift.
To those who are aiding in the relief and rebuild efforts, I commend you. Such actions are a balm to those who find it impossible to do anything at this conjecture.

The Princess Alarissa Thrax has given us a great welcome gift that will grace the courtyard of our home and mean so very much to us in its completion. It was not only generous but a grand gesture that the Marquis and I shall never forget and are not like to when Baroness Skye has completed her work.
What a grand thing she has planned, beyond even that which we originally envisioned.
Many Blessings your Grace.

Relationship Note on Orvyn
My heart, how different Arx is. Far more opportunities and efforts to aid others can be found here but I miss the scent of the sea from the Keep windows and likewise the rolling hills of the isle. But there are things I am sure I will come to love here and treasure all the more.
May our family grow and prosper beneath Gild and Lagoma and may we continue to bring prosperity to Harthall with Mangata's blessing. I am looking forward to that which we can make together here.

Islin! My other cousin from my Uncle Duncan. To think you found a way to meet us in Arx so swiftly. I had a feeling you'd be interested in the bigger game that is offered in the large city. I am just happy that you were able to connect with us so soon. As always, we shall endeavor to see you thrive in your own way, and perhaps, in time we shall see how your skills at sailing have fared over the years. It has been a while since we've had a proper race through the teeth.
