I can't say I've been mistaken for a servant before. Maybe that woman was just singling me out as someone who wasn't all silks and station. It was probably just her, but I'm left wondering if others see me in a similar light.

A prayer to the Queen of Endings.

It is no small comfort to know that at the end, You will be there to gather our souls and send us where we should be. I am grateful, though these days I am increasingly reminded that You do in fact have a complex sense of humor. And so with gratitude I thank you for spinning our souls and for this weave of life, but I also leave you with this:

What is the difference between a lute and a fish?

You can't tune a fish.

Now and again - more often now, since having Nara - I find myself wondering if there are those who think Deepwood is weak. Who think I am weak, because I choose to position myself in a place of benevolence, and wish to direct my life and use what power I have in a way that provides better mankind. I am not prone to violence, nor particularly warmongering; the latter is not a quality I ascribe to at all.

But I swear, I will cut the throat of anyone who tries to harm my child.

And I would not lose any sleep.

Note to self: Warm Socks. Apparently spring in the North is as bad as Winter here. Fuck that.

Leading my men and maids onward into another fray, praying to the God of First Choice that we serve him well and that we don't screw this up. I saw that painting of the creature we're fighting against; true visage or not it still chilled me.

Freedom is important. I don't want to be another leaf on a great tree.

Not for lack of trying, on anybody's part. Life will out, unfortunately.

I heard his penis is small. I would very much like to examine that symptom more closely.

Recovering in Arx is better than recovering in Maelstrom, but the mercies in both places are fantastic.

The smartest person in the room, except when you're not. Lost a lot of faith in him recently. Hopefully he can work to get it back.

To march into the cold mountains, where ice rules. What a thought.

Relationship Note on Arn

Duke Arn today said that I was doing a satisfactory job as a Voice and that I should keep up the good work.

I would have called for the Mercies, I was so concerned, but I thought it better to send pages to the Archives at once so this moment might be captured for history.

It looks like I'm now the Minister of Income for House Fidante. I feel honoured! I like being of service to people. Still hoping to someday earn that boat I want though.

If there's vulture themed tiny baby daggers I may even want to get one just to say 'I have a child sized baby dagger emblazoned with the bird of death on it.' Nevermind the fact I have no babies.

If I could ever have a child I'd buy him a weapon. Gods know I had a dagger in my hand near as soon as I could walk.

Since I'm still musing, a thought I've been toying with, due to this somewhat leisurely day among the journals: Baby's First Weapon series. Surely there has to be a market for this sort of thing? Maybe? Y'know, a short sword with a baby dragon or baby bear theme, for example. Daggers with small vultures. Maybe I'll find that old unicorn design from awhile back even.

Okay, great, I'm getting A Look from the scholar now. Yes, you. I'm looking at you wrinklerobes. Sure, leave it in there. Whatever! Not like the babies are going to USE them right away. Oaths and steel, maybe I should just go drink somewhere and stop this musing stuff.

I've come to wonder if the strong-personality cat I've read about recently might be the same one that lead to my receiving Dopey, who I believe is a litter mate possibly; he was gifted to me by then-Lady Kima what seems like a lifetime ago. Then-Lord Victus had visited the shop and spoke about his own furball, which lead to me remarking on wanting one. He crossed paths with then-Lady Kima shortly after, mentioned my wish, and voila! She so kindly had him delivered to me. The kitten, not the Thraxian lord, of course.

Dopey is still a handsome gray color with white toes (even given the soot about the shop) and has remained a sleepy creature prone more to purring than much else. Had to get him a bigger purple collar as he grew, but the tag with his name on it remains. He's loved about everyone to come to the shop, too, as far as I can remember, y'know? Not the jealous type. Or maybe he just loves being pet that he doesn't much mind who does it, ha. Anyhow, today's musings while the new forge is being installed and I have idle hands.

Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
