I can hardly distinguish what I own with enough care to leave it to anyone. My fractious family can decide.

With the caveat that if they can find another man of about my size, they really ought to do him the favor of giving him my clothes. It's a hard road for short folk.

Relationship Note on Orazio

I won't be leaving, I'll be staying in the city.

But I could still fall down! There's a lot of stairs in Arx.

I greatly appreciate your friendship and commitment to helping see my final wishes fulfilled.

Relationship Note on Thena

I am willing to wager that you will still find the insistence intensely irritating. And further willing to wager that as I am your almost direct superior, you won't /actually/ stab me for it.

The possibility that I could be wrong about one or both of those things is what makes it exciting, really.

Relationship Note on Thena

While my sword would go back to Mazetti, I am endeavored to leave my second most valuable possession in the hands of Dame Thena. The very same broom I've swept these halls of Solace with since my day of entry. May she use it well to take on the hole I'd leave in our hygienic practices.

That is about the size of it, and put so much more eloquently than I ever could, yes.

Relationship Note on Duarte

Those who would cry foul of being called upon to answer for their "appearance of insubordination" should know that to bring the issue to light in private, without punishment, and to include one's direct liege is a proper and merciful courtesy. It is not shaming, it is guiding and it is what leaders do when they wish to keep matters grounded, rather than escalate them needlessly.

It is therefore my only assumption that Count Duarte Amadeo is apologising for being the one who was in truth too hasty, that he was afforded the opportunity to explain himself and failed to do so, and that any social faux pas is his alone to learn from.

So, once more, my lord? For the public record. Your challenge is rescinded and the above is correct, yes?

Relationship Note on Calaudrin

It would be a poor thing for a man's last wish to be disregarded. You may consider it done, although I would prefer you return back alive. I can insist the will exists regardless.

I'll write a will in my journal too.

All my stuff goes to my wife, Esoka Greenblood.

If my stuff can't go to my wife, it can all go to Sparte Fatchworth.

I request that someone find Dame Thena Grayhope and dramatically insist until she's very very angry and annoyed that I wrote an iron clad will making all of my things her things. Even if she knows that's not possible because she read this entry.

Relationship Note on Eleyna

Mmm... Yes... in hindsight I can see how the specific turn of phrase might easily be misconstrued. I meant it purely in the figurative sense and used my house name rather than "Bravura" for that purpose.

The man himself did not take it that way - as an invitation to the realm - I assure you. And I have proof of it.

Be that as it may, my apologies for the appearance of insubordination, and for what certainly seemed to be an exciting day.

Failure to write sooner due to my thumbs being in many pies, as promised. I had no desire to drag blackberry across the pages, but I'm wondering if it would make a decent ink. Prettier, at least.

The amount of duties being heaped upon me are growing exponentially. I am steadily trying to avoid the realization that I will be left behind by my brother sister...and in charge, to add salt to the wound. I think I am beginning to understand why so many are grasping at last-minute relationships. Facing this alone is a little daunting.

That being said--no in advance. I enjoy my solitary lifestyle.

In the event of my death in the coming battle.

To Briar Marjawn:
My commission from the Crimson Blades
My red bow
Do not let Sir Thorley Sandreef near the alcohol, that is yours too
The dagger gifted me by Caspian, Nature's Fury, with the promise to pass it on when you no longer need it and find someone who does. They, too, must agree to these terms. If you cannot agree then it is to be returned to Caspian Wild.

To Sir Thorley Sandreef:
The remainder of my estate. This will include a letter addressed to you.

So say I, Violet Marjawn, on this 21st day of the 4th month in the year of 1008 AR.

Spirits, please guard us all and may this journal never need come to the light of day.
Guide my arrows to their targets.
Protect those I love.

There seems to be, quite within reason, a good deal of journals these past few days written to, or for, loved ones. Whether it comes from the one departing, or is the one that must stay behind - sometimes even from those travelling together or travelling apart! I, too, have loved ones leaving Arx for the fight, but they are my relatives and so the sort of love I am referring to does not apply here.

While I of course pray that my family returns home safe and sound, and send with them all my well-wishes and hopes, the intent of this journal is for a rumination on love, and what I might say were I in the no doubt heart-wrenching position of so many men and women:

I do understand that you can look into someone's eyes, and suddenly know that life will be impossible without them. Know that their voice can make your heart miss a beat and that their company is all your happiness can ever desire and that their absence will leave your soul alone, bereft and lost.

I think perhaps some are taking the liberal nature of Lyceum politics a little too far.

I am very happy to announce I have taken Laric Grayson, Master of Questions and Prince of Grayson, as my patron.

The Master of Questions has proven to have a good eye for art and a very accepting taste. I also believe he'll be supportive of me - in encouraging me, in defending my works, in tracking down art thieves. I do hope I'll be able to patronize Laric for years to come.

Or is he patronizing me?

Relationship Note on Violet

Don't freeze your tits off. I've gotten accustomed to them.

What do you want me to bring back from Southport?

As for my will? I don't own much. Make sure someone gets some use out of the armor I leave behind, cause I ain't planning on leaving much armor on me when I'm gone. Make sure Eventide makes it back to Farshaw. And if Duskblade's in one piece? Find some knight that's new and needs it and make sure it has a good home.

Any knick-knacks I have? Let Violet decide what to do with 'em.

Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
