I'm not sure what to think about the fight with smugglers and brigands down at the docks. It seems they were planning to sell false goods on the market. In any case, I'm glad the situation was handled with non-lethal force, and everyone came out of it alright. I'm not fond of upsetting people from the Lower Boroughs. I know that is a curious statement, but while we must perform our duties, I feel sometimes that the citizens there would prefer to handle their own business. At least that's the impression I was given by some of them that have commented in the past. I just wish there was a way to help everyone, where crime was not something people needed or wanted to turn to. I'll do my best to assist others as I'm able.

Ran into a spot of ordinary crime today. I feel a little bit sorry for Officer Estardes that he missed it.
I took out two brigands without killing them. Improvement!

Relationship Note on Juliet
I will not say not to mourn for Juliet Fidante, for grief is always for what we have lost, and with her loss, we have lost.
But despite the violence of her ending, I know that her soul has been gathered into the hands of the Queen to be protected and cherished.
She was ready to lay down her life for the Compact and for the Faith. She looked into my face and swore to me she'd bring my friend back to me alive.
Whatever else she was in life, she was a hero, and a Paladin, who loved her god well. To whomever killed her, know that the Thirteenth sees you, as does the Sentinel.
Mother of Beginnings, for you have gathered this soul into your hands, this soul who helped slay your enemy with her whole heart: I look forward to what shape her next life may take.

And now we mourn my most beloved cousin. Juliet. She called me Aunt and I held her when she was a babe. I held her a week before she was taken from us, in fact. I will see her memory honoured in any way I can. It's impossible to imagine doing less, even if I cannot do more.

Please, scholar, record that on this day the Corsetina Merchantile Company has closed its doors for a period of mourning. We will sell no wares while we mourn Lady Juliet Fidante, the Paladin of Reflections.

Relationship Note on Edward
I have always enjoyed a sharp and clever mind, and when it is matched by a warm heart and fueled with compassion and integrity - you are faced with a very rare breed of man indeed. The Lord Redreef is, in my humble opinion, one such man and I am very honored to be counted among his friends. He offers sound advice and sage wisdom and then he'll turn around on you and start singing a pirate shanty. A perfect balance of a gentleman and a rogue.

Relationship Note on Juliet
Fear no more the heat o' the sun;
Nor the furious winter's rages,
Thou thy worldly task hast done,
Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages;
Golden lads and girls all must,
As chimney sweepers come to dust.
Fear no more the frown of the great,
Thou art past the tyrant's stroke:
Care no more to clothe and eat;
To thee the reed is as the oak:
The sceptre, learning, physic, must
All follow this, and come to dust.
Fear no more the lightning-flash,
Nor the all-dread thunder-stone;
Fear not slander, censure rash;
Thou hast finished joy and moan;
All lovers young, all lovers must
Consign to thee, and come to dust.
No exorciser harm thee!
Nor no witchcraft charm thee!
Ghost unlaid forbear thee!
Nothing ill come near thee!
Quiet consummation have;
And renowned be thy grave!

I don't pray a whole lot. I still don't, but I never really did. Sometimes though, I did. I contradicted myself I know, I'm just trying to get my fucking thoughts together here.
Sometimes when I speak and act like Mangata is the one hearing it, it feels alright. Feels like somebody's listening more than usual. I ask about the waves sometimes. I don't get an answer but then the next day I start feeling the tides being a little calmer. It doesn't make much sense to me.
Maybe there's something about this praying thing I'm just not getting yet.

I am not much of a journal reader. I sometimes hear what folk are gossiping about, when someone writes something in their journal that causes a stir for a good reason or a bad one. But the truth is I've got better things to read when I've got a head for reading, which isn't all the time. There's all matter of fancy books to read with good stories in them and I'd rather read those.
But some journals I read, though I don't know why, as they seem more often to embarrass me rather than enlighten me, such as they are. I am no Scholar, but I don't expect Vellichor would like to know anything about anyone licking anyone else and I'm sure no one else does either.

Such a mixture of emotions are brimming within
Happiness for my new marriage with blessings that over-runneth
Sadness for the death of my cousin
Joy for a female Countess
Despair for what may be to come
Yet I remain dancing
I remain singing
I remain making music
I must stand strong
Tears in the his wake, not at the his wake

Sadness for the death of my cousin

The Arvum Refugee Relocation Group is currently accepting applications, if you'd like to help with the efforts, or if your lands are in need of replenishing of people after these hard times. There are people willing to work, if given an opportunity. See me, or any of the other members of the ARRG, and we'll work to get things squared away.

Relationship Note on Joscelin
Guildmistress Joscelin Arterius is extremely generous.
She accepted me into the Crafter's Guild. She gave me a loan, that I may get my shop set up - and with only a single order fulfilled, she gave me a bonus from the coffers of the guild.
I am thoroughly pleased. And I will be sure to make a donation to Gild in thanks for my good fortune, brought to me by kind people.

Resources are more than just silver. There is a port financed by the company; there are ships. There is a warehouse that is full of goods. There is a meeting house, a cafe. There are warehouses all throughout the lands of the Compact.
There may not be silver, but to say that there was nothing taken is ridiculous. These things count.

A note to remind myself: Pranks are all well and good until you draw the ire of family. No more livestock.
In other news, I am to go on an adventure! I am quite looking forward to it! And I have it promised that I will be taught how to use a blade. This is something I have wanted to know for some time. I have no illusions that it will be easy, either physically and in some aspects mentally, but I think being able to look after myself at least in some small part is a worthy thing. I am not naive enough to assume that I would be able to deflect a mortal injury should someone seek to harm me, but at least, with lessons and practice, I might be able to make them regret it.
It also gives me leave to consider all new accessories of a bladed variety. How fun!
