Nebulosa admires how much Dafne seems to have it together even with everything on her plate.

Relationship Note on Max
I had a nice walk on the beach with Count Darkwater, it had been a long time since I have skipped stones across the water. It was pleasant, I was sad to see he had to leave and go back to the Isles. I do hope he comes back soon I would like another walk with him.

Relationship Note on Marian
It is with a touch of envy that I see my skills as a wordsmith pales in comparison to the magnificent Princess and Sword of Sanctum.

Deep breaths, Ford, deep breaths.
Don't break anything.
Don't lose your cool.
Keep your head on.

I can focus on my reactions, control them, instead of the circumstances that are out of my reach. That is a starting point.

Unraveling
Marriage is a sacred bond,
Binding for both families
Heralds cry to post the bans
Scions pray for blissful matrimony.
But wait...
Perchance disharmony?
Contract gone amiss?
Sisterly spite, brotherly dis?
Mother grinds her teeth?
Father's anger persists?
Remember...
Union binds two hearts
Unites two distinct threads
In court and in nightly bed
Planting seeds for the future.
It is...
Children who see family follies,
Ties to Crown and Compact
Falter under hate's hot duress
Cracks sunder rifts that are...
Far reaching.

Relationship Note on Cara
I make few entries in this journal, but feel obligated to set the record straight after being informed of my wife's treachery.
It was not half a bottle of wine. I distinctly remember finding two empty bottles the next morning. The hats were wholly incidental and all I am guilty of is scratching the dog's stomach. And behind his ears, of course. He loves being scratched behind the ears. He was a good boy that day and deserved as much. I will not apologize for my conduct.

It seems my cousin needed to handle some important business back on the isles. I hope he has safe travels and that there are no storms upon the seas.

Relationship Note on Laric
My husband had a hat party with our dog, a half a bottle of wine, and what appears to be the contents of a hitherto unknown canine tailor's shop.
I'm just imagining the face he's going to make when he realizes I wrote about this in a white journal and I can't stop giggling.

Gild is still a complex god for me to try and figure out. I think I'll let the Knight be right though and say I learned something from all of this. At the very least thinking more about ones actions is a good thing is it not?

Relationship Note on Aleksei
I'm no hero, despite whatever you, or for that matter, anyone else, thinks. I'm just some shitheel that got put in a weird situation that I like to think anyone worth their fucking salt would've made the same decision.

The drunken cacophony of celebrations across the city districts reaches heights that could rival thunderstorms while the silence of the hundreds of lost Thraxan thrall children who were sacrificed in war is deafening. Innocents seem easily forgotten by the non-innocent.
I will not forget them though, I was once them and the Thirteenth gave me strength to rise out of thralldom.

Relationship Note on Tikva
Meeting Lady Tikva was like meeting a younger version of myself, at first. I have been accused of smiling too much, at times, but here is someone who can match me smile for smile, and what a delight it is. I thank Limerance for guiding me here, that I could meet this young woman and help, in some small way, to banish the clouds that dampened that ready smile. Hers was the first vow I've overseen since my return, and I could not ask for a greater honor.

Relationship Note on Malena
A most thoughtful present given was the catalyst for a truly inspiring encounter. It is in meeting people like her that I feel Limerance's hand guiding my own- she is a light of love to those around her, and I count myself fortunate to have been given the chance to further feed that flame. With people like her and her brother Merek in Arx, I know the Pantheon has blessed us.

The Grandmaster strikes me as a man of deep duty and conviction- his love for Arx and its people shines as bright to my eyes as anything. I will certainly endeavor to support him with Limerance's mercy and wisdom.

Relationship Note on Aleksei
Fascinating! So much has changed in my time away, and this young Archlector is as much a sign of our changing times as anything else. The First Choice is well represented by Aleksei, and his outward reluctance to embrace the responsibility of his position does nothing to hide how well-suited he clearly is to it.

Relationship Note on Valencia
Took a moment to relax at the Golden Hart before diving back in to my duties at the Shrine now that I've returned to Arx, and was fortunate enough to share a few moments with Princess Valencia. Perhaps it's a sign from Limerance Himself that the first person I meet fairly glows with His light, glimpses of deep compassion and charity clear to me beneath the elegant presentation.

An idle thought, really:
I do not need to be drenched in the blood of my enemies nor have experienced war to know that I am more than a well-dressed wench or a pretty political toy. The tools of grace and diplomacy and politesse do not make me any less a threat. I remain a Thrax, and I am not soft unless I choose to be. A marvel, that we have the freedom to forge our paths. If you are unsettled by the changes - that is acceptable. You are allowed your straight-forward and strong opinions. It is your right. Your privilege. It is not my job to convince anyone to change their minds once set.
It's my job to encourage change.
