Relationship Note on Edain
I can finally say it aloud. I'm so excited to join you and your family. I hope to do you and them the honor I have come to learn is so valued in and among Oathlanders. I will be proud to call you husband and to strengthen the military, and trade relations between Sanctum and Southport.

We have been wounded before, and endured. Foul sorceries have felled valiant men before, yet we do not falter. We do not weep for the lost, for we are Grim; rather we steel ourselves toward vengeance, toward victory.
We mortal men, arrayed against foes out of legend, we shall teach the legends to fear us. For while any warrior of the Isles draws breath, no foe can rest easy.
We bleed, we mend, we fight on.
We do not fear, for fear is the guardian of hate.
So speaks Grimhall.

I have no answers and a lot of questions but for now we focus, as we have every conflict, we focus and we get it done. To those lost, I swear to you... We will give you justice. To those still here, thrall, commoner, lords, and princes - grab your hammers and grab your nails. Once we are done; grab your shields and spear.

I was able to attend the knighting of Dame Morrighan. Not that I would have missed it for the world! I heard mention of it shortly after my return and was just so /glad/ for her. From what I heard tonight, it was deserved and more. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful, performed by Princess Freja, and I was truly honored to bear witness to it. Catching up with my newly knighted friend, Princess Freja, and even Prince Fergus was wonderful, too. I am fortunate, indeed, to call them all friends and hope they know I am a steadfast one to each of them as well.
And oh, drinks to discuss knightly balls very soon is an absolute /must/.

My heart goes out to House Thrax for what they endured today. The loss of life and livelihoods was horrific. I will not cry for them, but I do offer them all the aid House Keaton can provide. If I have not yet reached out to you and you need aid, please reach out to me. I have medicines, my own skills at healing and a great deal of lumber.

It has been some time since I've written much of anything in my journal, but the events of today have prompted me to at least scribble in something. I have humble, common beginnings, as many close to me know. Nothing in life is meant to be easy, not if it matters and is worth something, and it's the same with the path we are meant to take in life. It has been many years since Redrain took me in, an abandoned without a tribe, and it is to them that I owe everything. It was Prince Sherrod that gave me something worthwhile. My life. A new start. I swore oaths back then when I bent the knee, and today I have done the same, renewing them. I did not rise as a servant - but a knight. Everything is the same now as it has been since I swore my loyalty to Redrain, all those years ago. They are my tribe, the closest thing to family I've ever known, and I will defend them with the ferocity akin to a mother bear protecting her cub. I am their sword and their shield. I will protect them and fight along side them. Their enemies are mine, and for those that bring harm, they will find no mercy. Being knighted is the greatest honor I could ever receive, and words can't express how thankful I am to the Redrain family for everything they've given me. From now until I take my last breath, I will guard and watch over them.
To the Last.
~ Dame Morrighan, Knight of Farhaven

Ianthe,
You left me to die for us, for the city, but mostly, for those that loved you. You were a daughter of the Gyre, my sweet little sister, plagued by such dreams that would chase you into my room when you were small, you would wrap around my neck until I could sing you back to sleep. Such terrors you cried over, so many tears. You were certain you saw your death and I always hushed you and told you it would be alright.
I knew when the boxes arrived after your departure that you didn't intend to come back. Zhayla knew it too. Things change, others were involved, and now-
In the bottom of my sorrowful heart is one question that I think no one can answer:
Did you die for nothing?

Churn and turn in the widening Gyre -
It all falls apart, the center will not hold.
One singer cannot hear the choir.
The dark tides are loosened,
The rituals; the forgotten affliction.
The serpents that lacked all conviction,
save to snap and sink venom tipp'd fang
into itself - and ruined.

Last night I was visited by Seraph Ailith in the Society of Explorers hall. We talked about maps and my travels to Everwinter. She had quite a few questions. Sabella arrived soon after we started chatting, to regale us with a new idea for a play based on ancient Grayson explorers. After hearing my tales about Everwinter, she wanted to base it there, and thought young Sparte would make a good leading hero.
Poor Sparte. I had to go soon after. I wonder if Sabella didn't snag him to be her leading man.

That is strange. There appears to be a sudden bevvy of messengers at my door. What in the world could so many people want from me at the same time?
