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...

Relationship Note on Niamh
When the news of Lady Niamh's death reached me I have to admit that it was a bit of a surprise. It seemed like just the other day that I had met with her and spoken with her. I regret that I did not have the chance for further conversations.

Yet more gone. It's a wonder any of us are still here. Though I suppose in some ways many of us are not.
Love and heartfelt sympathy to those who have lost. My heart goes out to you.
I hope this will be the last of this for some time.
I hope for a lot of impossible things.

Relationship Note on Niamh
The first time I met Niamh Greenmarch, she woke me up in the Champions Guildhall by climbing on top of me and kissing the hell out of me. Soon enough she was lamenting that I couldn't think straight because she'd distracted me too well.
That was Niamh. Funny and fierce. Vivid and passionate. And she was my friend.
She wanted, very fiercely, to leave the world a better place than she found it. She tried so hard. I hope her imprint will be felt by those she leaves behind.
I know it's felt by me.

My sister.
That's what she was. Niamh was my sister. Even when Rowan left me behind, she said we would always be sisters. And now, she too is gone. I feel lost... so very lost, and broken. I don't know what happened... she was young, healthy, how could she just die like that? It doesn't seem right...
And now, I am more alone. I once had so many people around me that made me feel loved, that made me laugh. Life was joyous with them around. Life was easier to balance when they were there to help hold me up when I felt like falling. The land is breaking off all around me, leaving me on this little island of rock. I look around me and see ghosts of their memories... And now she is the newest among them.... Why, Niamh? Why?
Logically, I know I am not alone. I have others still. I have hope top grow closer to new friends, and I have some still who are closer to me than my own family. It is taking everything in me to not cling to them with worry now, not to drive them insane with my growing fear of loss.
How do I combat this? it is not a thing I am used to... maybe because I so rarely let anyone in close enough to feel like this for... I didn't -feel- then... now I feel hollow... and I am not sure which is worse.
I love you, my sister. Sisters we shall remain for all time.

No one will ever tell us again, that we cannot be as we wish, my artist. No one can ever tell us again that we cannot dance with each other.
And like dance, you lift my spirits and make me feel free. And the best part is, I know that our dance is only beginning.

Relationship Note on Niamh
I did not know Lady Niamh very well. But from my brief discussions with her, she was a lady full of passion and strong ideals.
I hope someone is able to take the Order she built, and grow it into what she wanted. Her dream shouldn't die along with her.
May the Gods and Spirits keep you, Lady Niamh.

Relationship Note on Sameera
Out of all the people I've been meeting in Arx, Sameera is by far the most important to me. She has never asked for anything, not really, and has shown me nothing but kindness. Even if she claims she is not very kind. I think I see a side of her that others do not get to see very often. For this, I am happy.
We may not be related by blood, Sameera, but you will always be a sister to me.

Relationship Note on Alis
Still in a shitty mood. Think I've lost track how long I've been sitting in this room. Watching. Guarding. But Marian is starting to look better. Still ain't talking much but, she isn't on Death's door anymore.
Then this pipsqueak of a Valardin shoves her way in states I'm going to eat my damn lunch or she's going to ram it down my throat.
She's alright. I like her, but I didn't say that shit out loud. But don't fucking tell me eat my dinner again.
Good talk, Pocket Knight.

Prince Aiden's masquerade in the Menagerie was most fun. An evening full of enchantment and beauty. Dances were plentiful in the Palace in Petrioch, but this one was special to me. I am thinking this is because it was the first time I was able to dance with the one I wanted to dance with, and there was no one to tell me I cannot.
I very much believe this will remain a special memory for all my days, for that reason alone.

A song for a friend I would have known better, and a song for a friend who I hope shares and will appreciate the sentiment.
We stand upon the precipice of life
Behind us is toiling, ahead of us strife
Meaning, for us, comes in the in-between
and at the end it seems we return to the Queen.
All of us lose, even when we can win;
Part of our stories end as each one begins.
I cannot sing a ballad of what came before
The words leave my throat all raw and sore--
Shine on, bright spirit, with your Order of Gold
We'll carry on your torch like yon heroes of old
and light the way clearer, hearts high in our chests
Losing you will never mean giving up on your quest.
We'll beat back the darkness, and remember your blade,
I'll sing this song for you, against every cruel shade--
The bright Niamh Greenmarch, beloved of many,
and believe me, sweet Champion, if it honors you any:
I'll hold your name in my heart as I crush them to dust.

Narciso Artiglio was beloved of the Queen of Endings. His death hurts. I cannot, will not, privilege my grief over that of those who knew him, loved him, better, longer, than I did. I am sorry. I know that there is presumption in loss, because grief is, always, about what you've lost. And the world, and the priesthood, have lost.
Death will take good care of him. I am without doubt.
But it hurts, as bright promise extinguished must.
He would have been the best of Harlequins.

Lots of work this week. Got a commission for fifty pieces - five pieces a set - of jewelry. And then someone burnt down old man Lucio's shop. I'll find them - and stop them from doing that again. Koslov family, if you see this, you had better get out of town quick. Grayhopes don't stand for that kind of shit.

I met this Thraxian Princess exploring the Thrax ward. She seems a kind sort, and invited me to brunch the next day, whereupon she seemed intent on setting me up with somebody on a sort of blind date. It went... surprisingly well? I don't think I know her nearly as well as I should, but something tells me there will be ample opportunity.

Relationship Note on Aldwin
I went to see the Dominus about joining the Faith. With all that I've experienced recently, it only seemed fitting to formalize my service to Petrichor, even if his Discipleship is one of the less organized. In any case, the man has long been a friend to our family and was exceptionally kind with me. Not only did he help see me quickly admitted to the Discipleship, but he also spent a fair bit of time tutoring me in various matters of theology and about the recent troubles. A most wonderful teacher.

Relationship Note on Lydia
Duchess Nightgold came to visit my shop, and after some conversation, invited me to her home.
Apparently I'm about the same size as her deceased sister.
And she bestowed upon me a great honour and a great gift.
And now, I own a rubicund glaive and a fine set of leather armour.
Not a day passes that I am not astounded by Arx and the variety of experience here, or the generosity and virtues people uphold.
I will be the best ally I can be to Duchess Lydia. She deserves nothing less.
