There was something missing this morning, but I felt something more rather than less for its absence. But yes, I noticed.

Swimming competition was quite well cold as fuck! Lots of fun though!

It isn't often that I meet someone and take to them immediately. Especially of late, since my ability to trust others has been severely curtailed. Yet, meeting the Lady Shae was one of those times where you just know instantly that you're going to like that person. She is warm and open, and makes me think that someone has managed to take a piece of the sun itself and give it human form.
Lord Gaston was not that different. While he is less open, in many ways, there is still that sense about him that he is someone to be trusted. I had seen him fight before we really talked, it's true, and I suspect there will always be a bit of a back and forth between us just due to the differences in our natures. But I still recognized something in him that will make us fast friends.
I look forward to seeing where it all goes, and what paths we walk together.

To be perfectly honest, I sometimes wonder whether the gods themselves care so much about numbers, ratios, and differentials. Does one actually need to understand the function behind the working of a prism to create the rainbow beyond? Does the velocity of an individual raindrop factor into the creation of a thunderstorm?

Finally, things are looking up! Ever since the Refugee Relocation Committee evaporated, it seemed like nothing interesting was going to happen in the legal world of Arx! Maybe now I can finally purchase a new bed somewhere. Maybe even a new tub, too!

I need to find inspiration for my jewels once more. To me, at least, the pieces I make need something.

The days pass and word of the Gyre rising on everyone's lips has me thinking how it will be to fight on the swaying on the decks of a ship. I shall see soon how tough that can be.

A man that I can talk to easily, he has a stern way and yet I still see the heart of him that cares for others.

The capstone on my week was an adventure with the mysterious paladin. I had a lot of fun and I was glad for the experience or meeting Sir Matthew and the Otter Pirates.

Relationship Note on Laric
Eccentric? I think so at least. Probably a result of the things he deals with on a daily basis, across an already seemingly long career. Methods of coping would have to be constructed or one would probably be driven mad. Unless that's the source of the eccentricities.
Hat making aside, I suspect that I'll need to consult with him in weeks to come regarding a number of matters that are sensitive in nature. Maybe I'll be able to convince him to hold a seminar or something.

I met the King for drinks in the estate not too long ago. He drank my booze and he was nice about it.
You know what that makes him? What I like to call 'tolerable as fuck' for a noble.

I cannot wait until the duel event in the Iron Pentathlon....so many fighters in one place.
It'll be great!! I can't remember the last time I was this excited.

Arx is a complicated city. I would say it is turning me into a complicated woman. But I'm not sure if that is true - perhaps I was always complicated, and the many facets of this city has let me see myself from new angles.
Too, it is not the city itself, of course. But rather the people in it, from many nations and views. They've given me much food for thought and helped me develop. In ways I did not expect as a freshly knighted Sword, arriving here.
I am thankful.

If Baron Whtehawk decides to do a repeat of the Iron Pentathlon, I hope he'll consider doing it earlier in the year - the water was freezing.
I admit, I went into the contest hoping only to acquit myself well for Valardin. I did go all in, however, and while I didn't have any of the amazing bursts of speed that some of the other contestants were capable of, I managed to keep a mostly even pace (even if I swallowed some sea water). Call it Oathlands persistance - it paid off, as I earned the bronze medal and third place, behind such luminaries as Prince Reese Grayson and Dame Esoka Greenblood.
I admit I'm proud. And I admit I hadn't expected to place so well. I'll give some credit to the cheering section that I could hear all the way over the crashing waves - with Duke Laurent using his battlefield voice.
Maybe that's why Princess Reese did so well - her cheering section was swimming after her, after all.

I am going to need to ask my cousin for archery lessons. Did you see that shot she made? I am exceptionally proud of her performance. I am proud of her in so many ways, and I am humbled to be a part of House Keaton. I am honored to serve those that we do, and I am looking forward to what the future might bring.
The duels are tonight and I am looking forward to it as well. I would say that perhaps I would compete next year, but evidently my wife has it in her head that she shall be. I do not believe that there will be Count versus Countess Keaton next year! No matter how much that might amuse people.

Relationship Note on Mia
The life I have made in the Compact has been built on the foundation of Countess Mia Riven, and her tireless efforts to keep her House strong. I am part of that strength now, and I pray I serve her well. I would also like to think us friends, after all these years. It does my heart good to have her running Heron Hall with all the industrious skill with which she leads the Twainfort.

I am so very proud of my fealty, the great and mighty Valardin and the showing we've made thus far in the Iron Pentathlon. I look forward to the dueling tonight and will use it to inspire me to get better with my quarterstaff so that maybe next year I can participate.
