Relationship Note on Eleyna
Because of the joy that it brings.
Sweet nothings and gentle sighs
Hang on the poets' lyrical designs.
But I think these bards did miss
A brand of love with a sharper kiss.
Stand clear of their cuts and snipes
Don't ever claim that love is just nice.
Vases thrown, swords drawn and clash
Champions called, quick tempers crash.
Competition, deception, dark passion
Done with poise and scandalous fashion.

Relationship Note on Eleyna
who pretended to never've cared
for the princes and dukes
(always one for rebukes)
a insisted she'd never be paired.
But then came a man on a horse
dark, he was, and quite coarse.
his grip very divine,
(his ass? oh quite fine)
and his hips, aye quite the force.
Now? They're really quite gross,
writing sonnets of who-loves-who most.
Headboard loudly beats,
(gods I hate how sound seeps)
And two heirs theirs to toast.

I write to inform you that both Caith and I have arrived safely in Arx -- quite the feat considering the state of things in the world, now. As promised, I have endeavored to make myself as useful as possible to my Thraxian relations, and have otherwise done my very best to stay out of the way. I daresay my isolation will not please you over much, but if you truly thought I would arrive on the continent to blossom into a social butterfly, then I begin to worry that your wizened age has brought about a decline in your sanity. I still anticipate you shall be writing to me inside of a year asking me to come home. If I am wrong, I will as promised order an ornate custom ledger for your use.
You will, however, be pleased to hear that I have already made acquaintance of one of my Northern relations: The March of Giant's Reach, eldest son of your brother, Anali. He is a large man with dark skin and a booming voice, and he is as much a presence in a room as any Giant. No doubt his father is proud, and I daresay you should be pleased to know him. I intend to become better-acquainted with him and his sister, and will urge both to write to you that you may come to know these members of your own family.
For now, father, I have no other news to report but shall remain focused on reviewing the family ledgers in the hopes I may be of some use in this time of transition and peril. That, as you very well know, is my only desire.
All my love and affection,
*~* Cass *~*

There are many who look at shades of gray. Some bad isn't all bad, is it? There are excellent people who serve dark masters, and by excellent we mean they do good things themselves, more often than not. And just as there are bad people who do good things, there are good people who do bad things, terrible things even.
There is always hope. There must always be hope.
And yet sometimes there are bad people who have done so many bad things that their best hope for doing better by the world is to be in it no longer. To return to the Wheel, and to try again with another round. And oh, perhaps you will point to this particular bad person who did these horrible things and then reformed. And you can say - we should show mercy, so that we do not become the monster we fight.
To those people I say this: How many innocent lives will be sacrificed to give one person another chance? How many innocent lives should be sacrificed to give one person another chance? Sometimes given what we know, and what we face, and our strength in that moment the best chance and hope we give someone is to commit them to the Queen of Endings and let them take their chances in the next life with forgiveness in our hearts and the implacable determination to protect our people from this particular evil's predations.

You whose love is as boundless as the seas and as ceaseless as the tides, as broad as the skies and as gentle as a summer's breeze. You whose wrath is the storm, the tidal wave, the riptide.
Grant us your blessings so we may in return magnify you. Grant us strength against your foes so we may in return strengthen you. Grant us your wisdom so we may in return work your will.
So we ask, so may it be.

If the answer to any given decision needing to be made were a simple yes or no, making them would be much easier. As it stands, when faced with a difficult decision, especially a decision that you must make that will impact in ripples around you, one must consider all options. Know that between black and white there is gray. Judge based on your past experience, your current understanding, and listening to the input of others just where your decision sits between the balance of black and white. And when listening and gathering is over, and a call is made, do it knowing you weighed your options and chose the best one.
Nothing about choice is easy. But I would rather have choice than be bound to have my decisions made for me. Difficult as they may be, making them keeps us stepping forward.

Beneath the picture, in elaborately swirled and lavishly embellished lettering, the piece is titled “Artur rides again!”
I collected my new sword from Felix today. He really did an excellent job with it AND I got a little bit of my silver back too – so bonus! I feel like I need some more princely regalia to really round out the look though. Armor of wyvern scales? cloak of manticore fur? Choices choices…

Southport will answer the call to arms and assist. Make no mistake of that.
Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
