I had the honor of fighting some of the best warriors in the compact last evening and it was a thrilling fight something I needed to get my mind off things. It was myself, Prince Ainsley, Lord Commander Silas, Lieutenant Calaudrin and Master Merek went against Grandmaster Armel, Dame Leta, Princess Alis, Princess Marian and Dame Esoka. Everyone fought well and each side took on wounded but in the end it was myself and Lord Commander Silas left on the field. I think when I have some time today I will track everyone down and see how they ate doing, I fear a few looked like porcupines when all was said and done.

Nothing brings more happiness than being able to brighten someone else's day with something as simple as a gown.

I know that being happy is not an anomaly. No one knows me better than you. But, what can I say without avoiding your gaze - without speaking untruthfully? I know that the weather will not discriminate, the seas are objective. Stormy or fair. Day or night. We learn to swim. We carry on through the rain.
At this moment, where I might catch you looking at me, my smiling friend --
I may not feel like the sun, no, but the moon. The glow is subtle. I know in my heart, not without a sense of regret or melancholy, that I am happy again.

This last week has been a whirlwind and I am feeling cross with myself for neglecting my family. I simply must make time to spend with my sister. I heard she stabbed someone quite by accident. She was aiming for an apple and hit a thigh. See, that is precisely why I asked to be taught how to properly stab at things from Admiral Magaldi. So when I must stab at an apple I hit the apple, and when I must stab at a thigh I hit the thigh.

Something has happened. Something has changed. I am in unfamiliar territory.
What happens when there are no games?
Or is it just another illusion and the player is just that good?
I suppose in the end it matters not at all. There is nothing but the moment. The future does not belong to me.

I admired your attempts to raise yourself despite your family. Ambition and the drive to succeed should be cultivated and not thrown away so casually. I am sorry this drove you from Arx.
May the spirits keep you better than some of their people did.

I worry about him. Moreso, since I know he doesn't worry about himself. I don't know what I would do if Ainsley died. I don't know if I would survive it.
Stop being so cavalier with your own life. Please...?

No matter what Ainsley says he was not fine. I come upon my brother grinning like a fool, drinking tea at Whitehawk Manor like he is king of the world... And bleeding to death in front of his hosts. If he were not dying I would kill him myself! What on earth does he think he's doing?
As for the people with him. If thoughts could kill I would likely have accidentally flambeed the lot. Save, of course, for Aiden. Aiden is the one who brought me there and saved Ainsley's life. He's the only one among them with a lick of sense, and I swear that...
(From here the journal descends into rambling about how people need to take better care of themselves, Ainsley is an idiot, and so on.)

Well fought. Though you might've still won depending on how you look at it.

Maybe you struggle because you have so many beautiful things? If you'd have just a couple, it'd be easier.

It looks like the menagerie is coming along nicely. I can't wait to see what ideas the wife and I can bring to Aiden's table concerning the atrium.

I will admit when I first came to Arx and I was told of him I was scarred of him, a Thrax Warlord and Prince he has a very hard shell. But there is something else there as well. I got to see some of the other side of the man even got into a drinking contest with him. I would feel safe with him any day protecting me and mine. Oh and by the way I won the contest.

I just bought the most expensive bedroom set that I've ever spent fucking coin on.
I have lost fucking control of my life.

Now when I returned to this city, I didn't know what to expect but getting to meet new people is always a good time. However getting to meet Freja was the highlight of my week. Gods the woman is gorgeous, brilliant, enjoys her libations, and can toss an axe. Marry me. You and me are fast friends and although Dagon may not let me hold his sword, perhaps I can convince you to let me hold yours? I mean it's so shiny and sharp. No one ever lets me handle the sharp things except for Uncle Dominic.
