Perhaps detailing folk tales is not an effective use of my time with my White Journals.
I consider that it's far better than the alternative.

I met someone in The Grottos. Marvelous place. The pools are quite healing.

So many things to tell of, and I am days behind in my journaling. Vellichor forgive me.
The pool party was a smashing success. Well, for everyone *not* aboard the Ship of Fools. It was an exercise in folly to invite me aboard, but at least it was amusing, no? My brother Abbas is a man of great and vigorous spirit. Fairly certain all gathered was treated to the sight of his "spirit" for most of the day. My. I hope he didn't burn.

A legal loophole to outlaw puns? I find myself forced to ask the obvious question: for those who broke such a law, what would the pun-ishment be?

Relationship Note on Edain
I'm not sure and it has been on my mind since reading the blasted thing. Edain, when we say cornhole, can I be sure we are talking of the same thing? This game and it's nuances sound very similar to something else - I just can't quite put my finger on it. Let's just highlight the commonalities: Eager and inexperienced players causing messes around holes, finishing in dramatic fashion. Why does it seem to elude me? It's on the tip of my tongue.

I'm very pleased to record that the speculative navy first imagined by Dame Leta and I in the training center nearly a year ago finally had its first shakedown voyage and the results, while not extremely victorious, were nonetheless quite promising!
I think that the next time the opportunity arises we shall perform all the better for this experience, hopefully with a fully crewed vessel.

I would further add to Sister Gisele's comment that while Vellichor maybe-could-not judge, I certainly do.
I've yet to find the legal loophole that would allow arrest based on dubious puns, but I'll find it, rest assured.

Relationship Note on Agnarr
He womped me with his monster.
Y'know, that huge rosy redsteel he goes around with. I'll add that he didn't even wear any armor, and I was in my full kit. Kinda expected it to happen, considerin' all. When he wins, he doesn't gloat. (New word. Thanks, Scholar.) He gave me a bit of advice, a bit of whiskey.
Dot liked him plenty good.
He ain't too bad.

Message sent: To Marquessa Samantha Deepwater
Honored Minister -
Knowing Mother Mercy Sophie has her hands full with her work, and not being too aware of the credentials of others in the city, I would accept with honor if no more suitable candidates can be located.
In service to the crown,
Lady Eirene Malvici
As Dictated:
I know Sophie's too fucking busy and damned if I know anyone else who can do it, so tell her I fucking guess so, if I have to?

I'm rather of the mind that historians of the future and our descendants would rather see that we were human and ridiculous and had a sense of humor when considering ourselves. Besides, I was told once by a very wise man that Vellichor wants ALL of our reflections, even the ridiculous things, even the sappy love poetry, even the terrible jokes. Shouldn't the legacy we leave be one of us as we really were instead of some sanitized version that is noble and dignified yet lacks even a spark of life in it?

There many exciting opportunities to get involved with the Menagerie Revitalization Project, that I'm happy to include the community in, as the space will be yours in the end, so why not add your touch to it?
Tonight I'll be hosting a sponsorship night, a very casual soft opening since many of the areas of the park are still in various stages of construction. Feel free to come down and look around at the future of the menagerie and learn about the opportunities to get your name associated with a place to relax or an exhibit to look at. Sponsors, I'm hoping to see you tonight or sometime this week to register your intent of design with me so I can pass it on the architects! For everyone else, you may be interested in entering the Water Fountain contest! I'm asking the public to come up with their best ideas for the center piece fountain within the main plaza and then the sponsors (all levels) will vote on the best one!
Other than that, I'm hosting a masquerade with the aid of Maquessa Deepwood to lift spirits, bring some joy to everyone for a night, and generally have fun while all efforts continue to go to the menagerie - and what doesn't will be donated to a charitable cause. Don't leave your mask to the last minute, it promises to be a great time!

It seems the great city of Arx is in need of oils.
I know a cry for help when I hear one.
Gracious denizens take heed! Your oily needs will be satisfied at my wagon, blended by hand to your specific needs/desires!

Those of us who must record, file and remember both white and black journals would like to remind the good people of Arx that messengers exist to transport messages directed to other good people in Arx, and while Vellichor does not judge (that I have heard or been informed) it is always good to consider one's legacy before the witness of future Scholars, eager historians, and one's own ancestors.

I know little of Noodling, Shinwack or oiled up bear grappling, but I do feel as if the virtues of cornholing cannot be overstated. It is an activity anyone can enjoy.
Now sometimes yes someone will get a little excited and thier bag will burst and stuff gets everywhere but in the hole, but that is usually a mistake that the inexperienced make. Truly great cornholers rely on finesse, timing and patience to finish in dramatic fashion.
