Relationship Note on Ariel
If she's not with child yet, it's certainly not for lack of trying. I suspect my first heir will be a pleasant addition by spring, however.

The amount of whining between the peerage is astonishing in Arx. Was I really so isolated at Stonehearth? When will they put the nobility back in being Noble? I suppose the Godsworn can be forgiven of course, that is a different path, but the diplomat?

People are as polite and kind as ever - but I begin to feel that my lack of learning has worn a few people thin. I wonder what sort of lessons I should be getting.

Relationship Note on Fatima
A sultry Thrax Princess who I most recently encountered at another pool party. When none of the men proved up to the task of undressing me this time around, she was happy to assist. Truly, she seems a woman of my own heart, if perhaps bolder than even I dare to be! I do hope to see a bit more of her. Er, to see her around a bit more. Yes, that's what I meant.

I suppose I should be all: I learned my lesson today. Should and could. But, did and done. The lesson I learned? Show your work and provide reasons for everything - I repeat - everything I do. Or, name my heir and become a hermit and live a life of obscurity.
However, that? Doesn't sound very fun.

I went to the salon held by Archlector Aleksei at the Grotto. I'd never been to a salon before but I've been to things that were close to it, but with worse food and maybe not as much wisdom and important folk in it.
I was curious about Skald, and I learned a few things. I had tried reading the book but this was a lot better, I thought, especially the parts with the fighting. I like the whole notion of choice and making decisions and so forth, as I understand it. There are parts of the doctrine that I still don't understand, to tell the truth, but then that goes for most of the gods. I even thought about being a disciple, but I don't know if I would do any good as a disciple, and then there's other gods I like as well. I try doing what I think is right and the gods might like, or at least some of them. Others I wouldn't rightly know. Most of the time I just hope that's enough.

I miss him terribly in the sparser Champions since his and Nia's leaving, but he's right where he should be. He can still make a spectacle in the sands of a duel though. Bravo Blessed Alley Cat.

I have learned a very valuable lesson. Sometimes one should investigate whether they -should- do something instead of if they -could-. I also learned that ignorance is not bliss. I am just very lucky to have people in my life that are patient enough to explain to me why things are bad when I make mistakes. I am just very very happy that my mistake was stopped before anything bad happened. I am very very happy to learn from this.

This was a pretty fascinating event, all told. I'd not had much chance to learn about Skald, largely unknown as much of his history and lore was to us once. But the idea of freedom of choice that Brother Aleksei spoke on was fascinating. That we all have the capacity for good or evil, and that our decisions give those things so much more importance. Surely, I know this to be true. Of course the First Choice's doctrine has certain... implications toward the isles and our own troubles. Perhaps their particular branch of the Faith could be an important vehicle for encouraging change there?

For being a smartass commoner, he's alright. Every once in a while I think about slugging him in the mouth. Most the time I'm too busy snickering though.

Relationship Note on Niamh
Gods be good, but this one hurts.
Niamh helped me find words to put to the feelings inside of me, to understand what honor could really mean outside of stories and empty words. She took me seriously, and she gave me something to aspire to, and she was also just ... a lot of fun. She made me better. She made me feel like I could be better. And I'll always honor her memory.

A mission! The Regent has asked me to embark on a diplomatic mission to the Nox'alfar along with several other skilled individuals. Apparently we must arrange a treaty and avoid war. The usual sort of thing. Still, despite the terrifying things I've heard of the elves, I'm very excited. They sound so... unique, so unusual and strange, and apparently they hate boredom most of all. I'd hardly call myself boring! I just wonder what I'll wear...
