Relationship Note on Calypso

I have known the Duchess since the very first meeting of military minds was called in Arx, after my appointment as a Voice for my brother. And from that first meeting, I have always felt certain of her capability as a General and a Leader. We became fast friends, and someone I trust implicitly, which is a difficult thing to earn. To this day, she has proved time and again that she is worthy of that trust and confidence in her leadership skills. Through both her appointment as the Minister of Defense, and her ascension to Duchess of Southport.

I know, without doubt, that she will be able to lead her people through this troubled time, and both Southport and House Malvici will come out stronger for it. She has my full and complete faith and confidence, as well as any help I am able to give her. Both personally, and as a Voice for House Valardin.

Artshall finds itself in the interesting situation of being one of the Oathlands more southern duchies, we border the lands of the Lycene and have some close ties to several of its larger houses, including smaller ones of less note. While we've (yet!) to marry one of our kin into House Malvici, Southport has long been an ally of House Laurent and I don't forsee a time where that will be changing in the immediate or further future. We stand by our neighbors to the south. Southport has long held the mouth to the river where my family's merchant ships have needed to pass. They've been safe in their waters, as have any traders that needed to come up the Lycene split to Artshall. I look forward to continued years of that and have no doubt that they'll triumph over this unfortunate set of circumstances.

Relationship Note on Quenia

The sins of the mother are not of the daughter. You are the master of your own destiny. I agree with my friends that any man that would judge you by your family is not a man worth having. Better yet, challenge him to a duel and choose a champion that doesn't mind beating one of such prejudice.

Politics have a way of changing oneself. I am glad to see that you are taking your words and actions to reflection and seeing a better way.

I have no doubt that troubles facing Southport are no match for Duchess Calypso and House Malvici. My brother has said all you need to know about the substance of her character.

To quote my brother, Duke Gabriel:
The Lady General has proven herself a stalwart commander in the field, and one willing to see to the interest of the Crown and the Compact before others. A desireable trait which puts her above many others in my esteem.

The Battle of Whitewood was a trial by fire, in my eyes, which she passed galantly and in the future I will trust her with my men should it come to it.

I got a couple of new projects to work with.
I hope it'll be useful and that I'll be able to achieve anything...

I am wondering what kind of winter it will be coming up. I'm hoping that we see some snow for more snowball combat.

So much! So many new things and places and people. I still feel like a backwater lord-ling after some weeks here in Arx. This feeling is likely to persist for some time most likely. Still I've been given a warm welcome by everyone I've come in contact with. Lords and Ladies of all stripe have been gracious and forgiving. And goodness knows I'll need forgiving.
And speaking of forgiveness .. Many thanks to the Archscholar Bianca for hers as well as her passing on knowledge.
And speaking of knowledge.. Many thanks to the Lady Eirene who, in her special manor, has set my knowledge of the healing arts in motion. Finally I have focused the scattered bits of this and that into some order as well as new things. ...And I didn't get yelled at doing it.. yet.
So much still to do and learn.

Relationship Note on Calypso

The Duchess Calypso Malvici is the Minister of War and a wise and capable leader of her people. I have seen her talent and care first hand as an agent of the Ministry of Defense, and I have not the slightest doubt that the peril that confronts her is not of her own making.

Some enemies work in insidious ways. I battle them through trust in what I know instead of the ignorance of what I have forgotten.

The Telmarch stands with the ruler of Southport in these trying times and will lend what support it is able.

Things just got very exciting. Very exciting indeed.

I'm pretty sure I heard this somewhere before, but I feel the statement is somewhat appropriate. The game is on.

I've just arrived in Arx, and though I haven't had a chance to get out into the city much yet, Baron Silas Whitehawk and everyone else at the manor has been so sweet and welcoming while I get settled in. I'll have a shop set up soon and I look forward to getting into my duties as the Greenskeeper. Already there's news of some sort of new plant from the North that I'll need to check into, how exciting!

Relationship Note on Sparte

Putting out word to all young, eligible beauties. If you see this strapping young Guardsman at the pub or party, drag his ass to the dancefloor. Ignore his protests and discomfort. It's all just playing hard to get.

What a truly brilliant night our last Sunday spar turned out to be. I do not think I have had such fun in some time. Gods, I am so grateful to those who came to make this night a delight.

The matches were outstanding. Dame Esoka Greenblood vs. Lord Ansgar Blackram; Lady Joslyn Stonewood vs. Marquis Cirroch Sanna; Lord Corban Telmar vs. Lord Darrow Darkwater; Lord Luis Igniseri vs. Master Waldemai Isenhu and Lord Luis Igniseri vs. Baron Estaban Saik displayed the most remarkable skills in some of the best matches I have seen in some time.

Lord Graham Stonewood as always was a delight and so very helpful seeing that guests were well welcomed. I delighted in the company of so many beautiful and wonderful people. I was beyond thrilled to see Lady Lucita Ignisere, Count Thesarin Riven, Count Kael Keaton, Lord Ian Kennex, Princess Sasha Valardin, Master Zerric Memphit, Missere Aksel Nygard and the newly arrived Lord Marcos Saik as well.

I cannot wait for our next events! They keep getting better and better.
