She may do well here. It's good to have another peer on the bar.

Relationship Note on Carita
I'm certain that I terrified her, but I had to know the truth.
Now I know I can trust her, if she ever dares set foot in my presence again.

The Lament is clear of bodies, and yet so much remains to be done. I need stonecutters, an architect, and a clear vision from the Voice of Thrax as to what she wants to do with this gap.
At least now I can contemplate what to do next without my heart breaking for the innocents who died there.

Relationship Note on Valencia
Princess, beneath the glinting yellow quartz eyes of the fox mask, was me. Honestly, it was a comfort to assume the role of the creature the mask was fashioned of: clever, confident. All adjectives that I would have used to describe aspects of my own personality once before.
With my ego weighed down, I would apply those descriptions to you. Now.
A gentle soul, a joyous laugh, your heart a blooming rose for the want to help everyone.

Relationship Note on Selene
As suspected, she is every bit as brilliant as my cousin, and the overwhelming the general consensus, said she was. Her moods were plum roses and cool blue morning sky. It broke the monotony of the day. She offered conversation that bolstered my spirit while we took an ambulatory exploration around the Reflection Square's still pools and gardens.
A force of nature.
A phrase better applied to the Radiant, truth, than the compliment that she offered me.

Let it be known by anyone with the poor sense to spend their time reading my white journal entries: I hate Magpie Grayhope with the burning passion of a thousand suns.

Relationship Note on Calaudrin
My dearest First Officer Estardes,
Given the nature of the request and the potential of a bond being built with the dame, I might perhaps welcome you to get involved in my relationships. You see, getting involved in my relationships is in essence exactly what I was asking, given the overlap that would be involved. You might be surprised at just how rewarding such interactions could be. If you're intimidated, it's okay. I'd be happy to educate you on some of the finer methods for maximum enjoyment.
Also, I should make it clear that it was very much *her* idea.

Relationship Note on Juliet
My very favourite 'Niece' (actually, a second cousin, but she has always called me Aunt). We've exchanged letters and she promises to sneak into my chambers one of these nights with a bottle of wine.
I don't usually drink because I do foolish things. I dislike it when I relax so far. But with Juliet? Darling niece, I await your visit.

Tomorrow we go look for Petrae in the Gray Forest. Somehow I have ended up with a small company of highly competent military men who have volunteered to come along as protection, which is comforting if also a bit bewildering.
I am both trying to prepare for the inevitable, and finding that I cannot.

It didn't feel right to speak of lose and sacrifice in the battle and then speak of myself. I have worked hard in the Malvici Navy these past years. My Duke has named me his admiral and one of his voices. It is a great honor and I am humbled by his faith in me. As ever I look to my peers and superiors who have taught me invaluable lessons. I hope to learn more and become a leader worthy of the men and women of Southport's navy.
May your hopes find safe harbors.

The battle to hold Seawatch Gate was intense. I am proud of those who fought there especially. I know the battle was arduous city wide, but I will have to wait and here the tales from those who fought them. It's taken some time for me to find the right words. It was an honor to fight with those men and women and I would do so again gladly. Those who fell are not forgotten.

You know, I think it would behoove certain people to remember that can command me to do, or halt, anything is exceptionally small. It would be good if one can remember, this applies to not just me, but everybody in the compact. If a Prince you do not owe fealty to makes a command? You need not obey! It is important to remember this, as nobles especially. Commoners are not our collective servants to be ordered or bullied about. I'll also make a reminder that, even those I do accept and obey orders from, there is always a limit. The Dominus can order me in matters of faith, for example, but if he demands I serve him his meals at home, I will object. (Though, I adore Dominus Aldwin, so I may yet obey that command for my own reasons)
Military minded individuals should be reminded, you do not have absolute control. You cannot just order somebody around or throw rank where it is meaningless. To throw your rank and weight around makes you look weak, and to make that order of somebody that you hold nothing over makes you look foolish.
Just some observations I've had. For posterity, I'll just include, unless you are a Grayson, Dominus, Archscholar, or my parent, do not presume to tell me what to do. I encourage all to remember this of themselves when given an order by a Noble with a chip on their shoulder. You don't have to listen.

Relationship Note on Sasha
It's been enjoyable having Princess Sasha about Arx since her arrival. Helpful, curious minds that want to work for the betterment of Valardin are always in need, but more so in times such as this. I have no doubt that she'll prove her value to her family in the weeks to come, and I look forward to working with her.
