This staying off of my feet has gotten old already but I must do what's best for the baby. Princess Alarissa gave me some great pointers and I will definitely take it to heart.
Though I am resting....I still feel stressed. So worried about things but it will all work out in the end. My faith will keep me.
Time to call for some tea....

Relationship Note on Apollis
Lord Apollis invited me to a ball on account of some odd challenge.
We're talking ideas for the dress soon and he insists it should be backless. I'm not sure my back is pretty enough for that.
Even if I'm secretly excited to finally be able to wear a seasilk gown.

So, on the respected word of my liege-lady cousin the limits are: no blackened eyes, no broken arms. That at least leaves a whole litany of other possible wounds to suffer in the name of a gentleman providing escort -- excellent. Hopefully, there will be a medic or Mercy nearby when I need one.

The restoration of Harthall Keep is well underway but there are a great many things have yet to be tended to. A new central fountain, new flower beds for the courtyard, the upkeep and repainting of both walls and replacement of old sconces that have rusted for far too long. That is merely the courtyard and not the vast amount of other rooms that run the entirety of the upper and lower floor.
Needless to say that managing this household is quiet exhausting but has proven to be a grand distraction from the transition off the island into something more landlocked. I do miss the gulls and the smell of brine readily on the air in the morning. Though I am hoping the planting of honeysuckle vines will offer a new scent for my memory to cling to.

*The Lord Rivenshari is noted to having a quizzical and perhaps confused look on his face.*
*The Lord Rivenshari makes a number of statements in a language that the writer doesn't recognize.*
No. No, forget it. I was going to put something in, changed my mind.

Relationship Note on Eirene
If Karadoc offers escort, take him up on it. He's a good sport about things and very nicely supportive. If you feel a need along the course of the evening to give him a couple of punches or pinches, please don't hurt his writing arm and hand or black his eyes where he can't read, need him to work on some house reports. I 'd say I'd join you in the 'widow's corner' at the ball but don't know if I can bring myself to go to such a large gathering as I expect that will be quite yet. We'll do something else together later, Auntie.

Oh I am quite sure that the Prince has never lacked for female admirers. My gift will hardly change that, I expect. I only hope that he enjoys the gift in the spirit in which it was given, worn or not.

As much as I enjoy tormenting my brother, Apollis? I fail to see why person after person are challenging him--especially for such absurd amounts of silver?
He just recently returned from a war. A war he graciously helped armor me for. I'd be hardpressed to imagine he has more than twenty five thousand silver in his bank, let alone a hundred thousand to burn on military writs for a Grayson House we have no affiliation with. And now he needs to spend even more providing a fancy dress for a ball?
(Note: My apologies to Duke Ashford if his knight was ordered and paid by someone else to issue this challenge. But since no name has been been given and the writs are for House Ashford, I can only assume.)
For fuck's sake, we just lost a close family member.

If you like, my lady, you could accompany me to the event. You can continue to be misanthropic and avoid the tedious social obligations. I have enough charm for two people.

Relationship Note on Pharamond
Drunk on love. Or, in this case: in love with drink. If the good gentleman has become unmanned and unmade by a mug of artisan ale, perhaps, I need to ask what he is having. Then, proceed to order two of the same. Such a lavish vice to indulge oneself in.

If you wish to attend to show support but do not wish to partake in the merriment of the ball itself, we do have a very lovely alcove in the garden from which one can quietly drink and brood. I know my husband would appreciate your being there.

I don't know if I should go to the Pravus ball. The mood I've been in lately, I'll just warrant yet another duel from someone. Besides, I suck at dancing. Ask Duke Niccolo how many times I trod on his feet when we were younger and our parents made us dance together.

Tch. I do not 'trap'. I merely took Prince Barric at his word and helped to provide him with a suitable attire for the ball. I even took his design notes seriously in the construction of the suit.

You've got a deal. Master Itzal Culler, find me and we'll plan this. I very much look forward to it. If anyone wants to challenge Thena's dancing prowess, please send a messenger, and I'll put you in the picture.
We'll need musical accompaniment too, I expect. Oh, and a truly worthy place to hold the contest.
