So it looks like our fat mouser, Meowlarice, has been rolling around in the alleys of Arx and is now with-kitten. She's bound to pop in a month or so. Anyone want one?

Relationship Note on Astraea
Long journeys are definitely more pleasurable with a friend along to keep one company. The ride wasn't the most enjoyable I've ever been on, and some of the table and campside discussions were unsettling, but even so it was a pleasure to travel in your company. We shall have to do so again.

Relationship Note on Hana
I had hoped to have the opportunity to speak to Mistress Hana, after her work on correcting the balance of my sword. Time and events have conspired to keep me from doing so, thus far, but I shall retain the hope that I may express to her in person the pleasure I have at her efforts.
I can quite confidently say though that I have never held a more perfectly balanced and honed blade in my life, than the sword she returned to me.

I miss Rose Red. I was thinking of her today when I went to the Trader's Tavern. Such a cute little establishment and the people are so nice.
I will have to get in touch with her soon Vellichor. She's such a delight.

Preparations continue, and I am as usual set with anxiety over the course of things. I did meet with a woman about how I could contribute some additional aid to the impending troubles - the usual medicinal plants and the like, which should perhaps distract me from worry along with whatever small good it does.

As so many of my weeks go, this one has seen some amazing highs, and some devastating lows.
I have heard, this week, the most heart-shattering sound in the cry of the broken hearted. It is a keening that will echo in my ears for a long time. And yet, that immense sorrow was followed by a smile, to see the beauty of a mother's love. It was a moment that really struck me. And yet, another moment that makes me treasure every single bit of time I have in this life.
And, I am fortunate to have much to treasure. I will not take that for granted.

Sometimes, it's nice to take a break from my more involved projects to look at something simple and fairly easy. I owe mistress Valery a big thanks, even if I haven't quite finished what she asked me for just yet. But I'll make sure her lenses are cut and polished just right.

My spar with Lady Joslyn a few weeks back has at least motivated me to get faster on my feet. So I owe her a big thanks - as well as one to Princess Valencia and Princess Reese for acting as instructors.
I'll get there. Then we'll match blades again. I might lose, but not as massively as I did last time.

It seems there are an influx of new Explorers coming into the Society. This is somewhat refreshing after I did a reorganization of the charts of some of our former Explorers, and sad at the same time. The others will be sorely missed, and while the new people will never take their place, they will help fill some of our gaps. I can't wait to see what grand and exciting things they suggest we consider for our next big adventure!

Relationship Note on Cassima
The genealogy of Compact noble Houses is a complex thing, and I've many cousins I've not had the pleasure of meeting. Lady Cassima is one of them, and one I hope to know much better in the days to come. She seems sweet and smart and entirely good company to drink with. Next time, I will have some of my favorite contract footnote jokes prepared.

Relationship Note on Ian
Book,
It seems weird for me to write such, but I guess it is common place, and if our history is to be preserved I suppose this is a necessary step in keeping it. I must say, few people have impressed me as much as Lord Ian Kennex, be it his companionship in drinking, his wise discussions on strategy, or his amazing skill in combat, and I do mean amazing, the man is a great friend to have.
I just hope he forgives inhaling whiskey, my fault! Smiling pigs do catch people off guard.

Being on this side of the birthing process, I didn't realize how traumatizing it could be. Catching babies is no joke, and they come out all gross and -not- pink and for a little bit, you wonder if your sister didn't give birth to a squalling, cheese-coated lamb. But this wasn't the case, and I have two perfectly adorable baby nieces. Eleyna's tits are going to be as sore as my ass after rearranging Leta's clothes, and -she- will have no let up I'm sure. Unless she has a wet nurse, which... Gods, I'd have loved that when I had my cubs. Can you imagine? Being able to sleep the whole night while someone else grabs your baby and feeds them, and you can sleep the whole night? I mean sleeping the whole. The WHOLE night.

Book,
It has occurred to me that I may have a bit of a reputation for having a good time. I must admit there are worse things to be known for! I find a strange delight in entertaining others and myself, after all, if we die soon, we might as well live a little now!
Between all of the meetings, the drills, talks of strategy, bickering and drinking, it's nice to lose yourself in laughter, good for the soul! Perhaps it is part of my charitable nature, who knows!
A word of wisdom, never take yourself too seriously. Seriously, do not do such, it helps no one and often burns bridges.
