It's such a lovely thing to be informed that the Journals are filled with such healthy debates.

Lasting reminders of what makes me adore the capital city so very, very much.

I am not sure of Vellichor's feelings on it, but Gild smiles upon thriving commerce.

I had no idea white journals were now a means to peddle wares and make advertisements. It seems a rather small, select audience...those who scribe and the few that may care to even read your journal in the first place.

But I am just am old fool.

Aww. And I thought the new interest in spiders was because of me.

Parasols and Bats

In celebration of our new treaty and in honor of the Lady Nekarris, the Tangled Skein is featuring silk parasols for sun protection. They are available in the silken strand room. Two versions are presently available, but more are planned.

Also, in honor of the Queen of Death and in recognition of her growing following, the Tangled Skein is also featuring a line of new clothing with themes like skulls, spiders, bats and so forth and in darker colors. This line is a work in process and items are being displayed one by one as they are finished. So check back often if interested in the line.

It's been a long journey, this project - The Revitalization of the Menagerie. The place has been given a face lift and a new lease on life. One more step toward completion has been made. Only one area remains under construction. That means, that most of the animals have been transitioned to their new homes. They're all settling in. It's a wonderful feeling to watch them enjoy the touch of grass or the stretch run of their new enclosures.

A few more plaques have been finished up, as promised as part of the Golden Eagle sponsorship.

There are plenty of exhibits that could use a specific touch, however, we do have the winter to get through - maybe more people will be willing to do something creative with their time! (Looking at you, Diamond Hawk sponsors!)

I'm happy to say, I'm only a week away from the soft opening. This is exciting. My first big project is nearing a state of completion. And there are so many people to thank. So many. I'll have all that ready for the Grand Re-Opening. Promise.

Good night Arx!

The Whispers are coming for me!

Not literally coming after me. Well, maybe literally, but it's not at all how it sounds. Let me explain. Some odd months ago I befriended a fellow named Ferrando. I don't remember how we met. Chances are he stopped by the shop and we talked about armor and stuff because he's a big brute of a man and they usually tend to like armor. I know, I'm totally stereotyping now. So anyhow, turns out Ferrando is a bouncer for the Whisper House, keeping patrons in line if they're disrespectful or they cross the line in some way. It's pretty much the perfect job for him.

Friendship turned into a date and a date turned into more dates; so we're dating! Then one night he tells me he wants to bring me around to the Whisper House to meet the people he works for. I immediately thought this was such a sweet thought. Then he tells me they're curious about the woman who has woo'd Rando. Now suddenly there's like all this pressure to be like this super version of me.

I met Radiant Selene and she is every bit as elegant and lovely as one might assume the Whisper Radiant to be and I've also met Mistress Larissa who just today invited me to a girl's night.

A Girl's Night!? Me at a girl's night? Man oh man. This will be epic.

Just because you two do not want my stuff, doesn't mean someone else does not! Stop scaring them off!

Relationship Note on Calaudrin

Thena Grayhope is a woman of wisdom and eloquence, and you should listen to her.

Also, stop trying to give your things to people. No one wants them. You'll just have to hold onto them yourself for many years.

I suppose I should be grateful, and proud, and delighted to be part of this new world here. Rubbing elbows with lord and princesses, meeting elves, wearing fancy things. It's a long way to come, for a girl raised in the streets of the Lowers.

Really I just can't wait to get back to my dark, quiet room in the Murder.

And another wedding dress crafted. It is absolutely beautiful, though I am biased. I am also starting to feel as if I shall always be the dress maker and never the bride who wears it. It might be for the best, I have yet to find another person who is willing to freeze to death just because.

I must admit that one of the most attractive qualities a person can have is the ability to stand before the world, look it in the eye, and say, "I am sorry. I made a mistake. I will do what I can to make amends."

Although, failing such an opportunity, the ability to look idiots in the eye and mete out common sense is also disturbingly attractive.

Relationship Note on Alexis

I watched Dame Alexis Wyrmfang, Sword of Blancbier -- fight a bunch of lopsided, straw-filled dummies like they were her enemy -- I tossed myself into her spar. Back to back we practiced and introduced ourselves. Then we had a conversation about respect over bacon sandwiches and cider.

We both agreed that /everyone/ is deserving of a level of dignity and respect no matter who they are. Alexis pointed it out, and I thought that it was common sense.

Why isn't it common sense?

I have a feeling I will be seeing more of Arx in the coming months than I have in my entire life prior.

I will discover all the new things that can kill me! Exciting.
