I'm glad you love it. I hope the blade serves you well for a long time (unless you happen upon a diamondplate one. I won't blame you for going for the better sword!). Happy early birthday, my love.

I would think self-love is the domain of either the unmarried or the unhappily married.

Fear, n. A sense of the total depravity of the immediate future.

Relationship Note on Cassima

Highness, I would suggest perhaps you mean to say that fear keeps us from doing the things we *believe* will harm us.

Being afraid of the dark doesn't mean the dark will harm us, just that we think it might.

All marriages are technically for love. Sometimes it is the love of your partner, sometimes the love of your family, and sometimes simply the love you feel for yourself.

A thought on fear: It motivates us to take fervid action. Although, we cannot let it overwhelm us to the point of making us zealots.

Relationship Note on Vayne

Archlector Vayne,

I would venture that many of us would do as we are already doing. I expect there are innumerable others who, like me, pursue their goals, their passions, their dreams as ardently as they do for fear of losing what they love or never seeing their dreams achieved. Certainly, there is hope in those aspirations, but I know there are a great many of my pursuits which are driven by a deep and terrible fear and the resolve to face it.

The more troubling answer is that, without this fear, I would take my time. I would dally. I would explore every little curiosity that caught my fancy. And, pleasant as that may sound, I would not take seriously the threats which we face.

Fear may, at times, hold us back; watching the Compact as a whole and knowing my own trembling heart, I believe it motivates us more often, to hold fast to that which we love and to do all that we can with however long the Mother of Beginnings has given us to make this world and our short lives in it better.

A thought on marriage: I cannot think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I cannot hold a conversation with, or worse, someone I can't be silent with. I am able to sit in silence with her as easily as I can talk to her. I see togetherness as one or as separate equals. Two halves that each function as an individual whole. Strong together. Just as strong when we are apart. A respectful harmony of opposites that complement one another. A marvelous side-by-side partnership.

Relationship Note on Cassima

Fear keeps us from doing that which we fear. It is indiscriminate with regards virtue or value. It often motivates acts of immoral substance, or freezes one from performing acts of valor.

Even something so simple as a soft word of protest against a flagrant wrong can be dissuaded by fear.

It is no suitable deterrent.

Relationship Note on Vayne

Some would say that fear keeps us from doing that which would be dangerous for us. Those things which we might do if not for fear are those things that would harm us. Is that not so?

Relationship Note on Ianna

I should clarify, that the marriage between Fiachra and I was political as it secured the blood tie between Greenmarch and Valardin with the birth of Princess Ellara. When my brother Valen was killed, it left the blood tie that was to be forged between he and Marian sadly unfulfilled.

I will not deny that we are very much in love though, as it is a blessing to us both and our union.

My hope is that there will be a worthy match for you, who will be proud to take the Greenmarch name, if duty does not take you elsewhere.

While surely I am happy for Eirlys, this announcement just about did me in. She gets to marry for love. Monique got to marry for love. Fiachra got to marry for love. Me? I must keep the Greenmarch name at all costs. What does the happiness of a lesser cousin matter?
