Word of warning to anyone coming to visit Audric: if I don't know you, don't come walking up to his bed in a rush. Or armed. Or with suspicious packages. Or with food. Or drink.

Or at all, really, if you can help it.

Relationship Note on Caspian

While I strive towards flashy moves in my fights, a lot of twirling and spinning around, a flare of the skirts, showing some skin. I was very impressed at the tricks Caspian pulled in our own fight. Switching between three different daggers at various stages of the fight, it was impressive! Granted it's skill, and not flash that wins the day, but he kept me dancing for a while. He'll continue to improve and do well, and I'm certain Gloria was pleased.

I'd hope that the adoption of a lifelong man of many talents is a cause for celebration, not resentment.

I'm sure there are purists who prefer that the nobility stay with those already peers, though.

I've served House Darkwater most of my life; I've been a leader in my own right within the domain for most of my adult life. I consider this to simply be an evolution of the oath I swore.

My everything hurts. Not dead though. Do not believe the rumors. My death will be far more spectacular than that. Now I'm going to sleep until my bones heal. Ow. Ow.

Relationship Note on Madeleine

May the Gods and Goddesses give us the strength to bear and do what must be done and watch over and protect us afterwards. You mentioned what may be needed to cleanse the statue of Mangata at the beach. Your words were heeded and we did our best.

Blessed Aleksei has answered in part and pointed me in the direction of more information. I thank you for your words, though!

Relationship Note on Tristan

I daresay you could drastically expedite your little project here if only you had some sort of 'royal boon' you could use to get yourself invested at the head of a Barony.

Something found but committing to the journals for later.


A thousand years ago,
Calamity did rise.
To scorch the world asunder,
a new age was the prize.

A place of no mortal consequence,
their closed eyes could not see.
For what could matter at a forgotten altar,
as black as midnight sea?

A dozen knights and gods ignored,
a proud king could not be moved.
But upon the Thirteenth's horrific visage,
His power He did prove.

The King awoke with a bloodcurdling scream,
the Reckoning for he did see.
And so a fortress he did build,
upon the thinnest point proved key.

A king of kings stood fast,
but alone he was not.
For kings and queens did answer,
a sacred bind between was wrought.

Calamity did come,
a darkness fell from on high.
A blazing light, of dragon's fire,
stronger still were his allies.

A thousand years ago,
twelve gods and knights did try.
When darkness would seem to win,
the Thirteenth's power could not be denied.

A story told in secret,
passed down from line to line,
Of how a king of king's heart did change,
a terrible reckoning made benign.

Relationship Note on Reigna

I could answer you, but I guess the actual question is: do you want to have it that easily?

Oy, so here's a story about a valley, see? A valley riddled with snakes and vipers, and the rocky edge above it. The cubs of this tribe were brave, they'd slither on their bellies on the stone ridge and take this little wrist-slings, like childs' toys, armed with stones, and fling pebbles with great force at the serpents below. If they hit the -right- snake, the whole mess would start to fight and snap, and the kids would be entertained for hours. But no one asked why this particular little crack in the quarry, barely more than an ant's ravine, had so many of the creatures at the bottom. I still don't know why. But that's where that tattoo came from, the stone and serpent on my hip. But that's the only one you're gettin' out of me today, scholar, I'ven't the booze in me to talk about the others.

That's like riding, but with one of those big floaty things instead of a horse, right?

Relationship Note on Sorrel

If House Telmar is the clenched fist of Valardin, then House Wyrmguard is the fingers on that first, helping guide it to its target. In these troubled times, I am glad to call Lady Sorrel Wyrmguard, Wyrmguard's newly appointed Voice, a friend. Although warm and kind, she has a keen mind and will lead her people with the strength they require.

And she writes an excellent lullaby.

It seems now the supply of noblemen is now so dire they are now openly being poached from the commons.

Therefore, I would also like to offer myself for adoption. For the good of the realm. It would be an immense sacrifice, but I do believe I can cope.

Also, I come with an extremely adorable dog.

A lot has been happening in the past few months, but I'd like to write about some good things, like the many Crafters that keep the economy up. Really it is nice to see so many different fashions from all around the world, something that I didn't really think much about before.

I met a woman in the Ambassador's Salon and it was... well, I am remembering through the haze of kacktus -- do you think that is how it is spelled, Scholar? Cacktus? That looks closer perhaps, anyway -- cacktus flower wine, but I remember that she wore robes and jewelry that were unlike anything I have ever seen. Her hair, I swear her hair had stars, and her eyes? She spoke of strange and wondrous things that in retrospect strain my credulity but in the moment seemed so possible. She was present and real and she took up space. Princess Isolde's fox sat in her lap and Oaken licked her hand. She touched my chin and whispered to me. So she was real. But she was more than that. There was an energy around her, something that, like the wine, warmed me through the center and filled me with the same joy I feel when I pray.

It was good meeting her. But I have so many questions.
