Relationship Note on Demura
That is why it makes me glad to see that the Lyon's Redoubt is in capable hands. Marquessa Demura is a skilled knight, has a good head for tactics and strategy, and has a boundless love for her people. It is good that she is here to help us fight the storm that is on the way.

There are still so many of you that I have not met. There is one, the most important one, that I have not met yet. There will be months before I meet them, and yet I have been busy writing these letters to the Journals for them. Trying to let them see that while the days have grown dire, while the world has become an unknown and quite frightening place, that there is - and will always be - so much hope and promise.
This letter is for you, my sweet secret. My as yet to be met visitor that shares the same space as I do. Unseen, but each night I can perfectly envision the color of your eyes - the shells of your ears - the perfectly sweet curl of your fingers around mine. I am not often sentimental. But, in these Journals you will be reminded that there was a time where I once was. That you will know how much there was to share with you. There are other letters, apart from these, lengthy and private that I will give to you once you are older. My history and yours. About how you came to be. About others. Once you read those I hope that you will have a better understanding of me, and in doing so, better understand yourself.
There is so much that I cannot plan for, so much that I cannot promise for fear of making myself a liar. But, there are also promises that I can make, vows i can keep...
I promise that you will always be adored. I will remind you as often as I can. Each day, every night.
I will tell you to take chances, as many as you can handle. I will remind you to trust yourself. I will promise to trust you.
I know that you will make many mistakes. So will I. I will let you make mistakes, and feel the weight of them. I promise to challenge you to push through them, and not allow your fear of failure to stop you.
I promise to be active, and be the inspiration that you need that will move you in whichever direction you need, or want, to go in.
If you are ever angry or frustrated, I will promise to listen. If you need space, I will promise patience and give you the room to breathe.
I promise honesty and will expect this from you in return, even on days when the trust might hurt.
I will promise to protect you to the best of my ability - and this might be the only promise that will strain, because there are so many unknowns associated with it.
Mostly, my sweet secret, I will promise that you will know love in all of its forms.

'Tis the rushing horde's advance, an echo through the years.
The grounds a-tremble as 'round Arc they near,
And the King's eyes, they have yet to clear.

Relationship Note on Valerius
Can't say I ever expected him to amount to anything. Used to be he didn't even try to prove me wrong. Of late, though, I'm coming around to the idea that he isn't a complete waste of Thrax blood. That there might just be something to Valerius I can come to respect.
Shows you the world's full of fucking surprise and wonder, eh? Heh.

Next on the to-do list: Survive a siege. Kill anything that intends to threaten me. Father a boy, though I’d love a little girl just as much. It'd probably be better for me, too. Raise my children into amazing little men and women. Let my sisters shower them with gifts and praise. Be personally complimented when my sisters do this, even though it’s because my kids will be adorable and have nothing to do with them being my kids.
Learn to play the lute. That one’s for Lark, though. Don’t tell her.

Renounced her family's name
Threw it back just like a fish
Unsuited to the game
Baa baa, black sheep
Do you think she's mad?
You'd be right.

We talked briefly about the sheer amount of work that goes into this preservation, even if it is so that the head and hide can be worn like a cloak. The careful stitching, the choice of items to replace those parts that could not be preserved. As I was leaving, he mentioned what was next: plucking out the eyes. I couldn't stay, else I would have to witness this. Perhaps it is a morbid thought, but I do believe everything is worth experiencing once. Hopefully, I might run into this man again someday, and help him to pluck out the eyes so that I might see for myself how this art is performed.

This day each week I feel compelled to write. I have no desires, except this day -- to ever write. But when I wake there is a dull urge in the back of my head that transitions into some drivel or another.
I loathe paperwork. I don't mind maps. Strategy. Battle. And steering headfirst into a foul wind with axe in hand. But I loathe expressing myself in this manner. Except this day.
A strange thing.
A world of demons and elves. Of blood magic. Strange tides ahead.
