To the gentle reader:
It was such a pleasant day.
I sourced a bit of leather from a vendor in addition to a bit more rabbit pelt to have a pair of gloves made before the proper start of winter. Cold hands, warm heart. So I'm told. Although it's may be more correct to say: cold hands, frozen fingers. I spoke to a lovely assortment of people: including my cousin and a very talented seamstress. I also began collecting some liquors in earnest, as I need to begin planning a -- ah-ha. No telling you, gentles.
Although, I am wishing to expand my knowledge of what the Compact must offer as far as refreshments. Are concerned. We have a selection of whiskey at the Lodge. A couple different rums, vodka, and now a brandy. It would be nice to have a wider selection on offer. Suggest to me your favorites, gentles. Or tell me about a drinking game, a bawdy song - or, a funny story.

Went to the Fete of Champions for the show and some arm wrestling. I thought I was good back at home, but they pretty much chewed me up and spit me out here. Prince Luca Velanosa fought in the bout and then came and nearly ripped my arm out. He seemed like a good fellow. Then a woman, Zhayla, did pretty much the same. I'm going to need to do more exercising than just waving my hammer around here, I think. Welcome to the big city!

Relationship Note on Anabelle
She's arrived with her older sister. I know that she's going to do well within the city. She's always enjoyed people and people have always enjoyed her. Where better to find oneself under those circumstances than a place with half a million people thrown together? I think she will do well, though I can imagine her sister will have to rein her in from time to time. It is my sincere hope that she can find her place within the court and do what she enjoys.
I've already borne witness to her past habits forming within the city already. She truly does love to surround herself with people. Good for her. I am sure she'll be a delight for them as much as she expects them to be for her.

Relationship Note on Demura
An unexpected face to find in Arx. I imagine she sought to surprise me with her presence, since she didn't send word ahead. I may have stepped away from my family in order to take on the duty of protecting His Majesty, but that does not defeat the fact that it is good to see an old face from my youth in the city. She has done well by her House and I'm certain that she will be the bright hope for it. She has lost none of her confidence and self-assurance. I'm proud to see that she's taken to her role as Marquessa with such aptitude.
I am confident that she will lead her family resolutely forward with a steady hand, wisdom, and her own brand of charm. She brought her younger sister with her as well. I'm sure I'll be hearing their names regularly now. I wish them the best of luck and pray that they will do right by the people of Arx.

Relationship Note on Darren
I found Elysia in your eyes, the Abyss in your absence. My world brightens by your existence, even if my destiny takes me elsewhere.
You're still pretty all right, though. I guess.
*some of the ink is smudged, as if drops of water dotted it before the ink dried completely. It's left like that.*

Not all stories end in happily ever after. Some simply come to an end. But we will forever cherish the story we wrote, even if we wish that the end didn't have to come.

Relationship Note on Sparte
Young. Eager. Optimistic. Nervous around nobles but, nevertheless, determined to succeed; I saw him practicing while wounded. I think he's going to be good for the Iron Guard.

Look out for this one, she's special--spiritual and joyful, determined to make the world happy alongside her bear Reinhardt. I think she might succeed, at that.

The Shield of the Compact has changed, and I am changing with it. No longer concerned so much with intelligence gathering, we're going to be dealing with tactics and fighting. Looking forward to Ansel's practice. We'll see how well we work together, and hopefully, my ability with the bow will help us develop better fighting tactics. Aside from that, I met the most delightful woman, a girl named Luna who has a pet bear and is determined to entertain and bring joy despite the fact that so many are sad. I admire that spirit!

Day 1 in the City of Arx
-Guards wouldn't let Reinhardt into the city. Something about paperwork and safety of the civilians. My dear Reinhardt is a prince among bears! They should be so lucky!

The Spirits guide me, there is so much to understand that I do not know quite where to begin.
Fortunately my part in this is easy: for Nightgold, I am to be pointed at our enemy and see it done.

So close. I think that's about the closest I've ever come to beating you. You're getting faster though and you still hit like an ox.

It is interesting that some preach about a virtue and yet find it so very hard to demonstrate it.
This is not a condemnation. Just an observation. I suppose that it is a very human thing to do.

Relationship Note on Monique
A true friend. One who isn't afraid to speak her mind, and will not let the heat of an argument linger long. Not only is she remarkably resourceful, willing to delve into the most odd of investigations, but she has proven her worth as someone to trust.

Relationship Note on Aislin
A stalwart companion on our trip to the Grove. She had nothing but respect for our journey, and her ability to translate, along with Monique, proved invaluable. While I did not witness it, her sharpness with the bow was most useful. I only hope she understands that the... incident with the mushrooms was not my typical behavior.

Relationship Note on Victus
Thankfully, he didn't take me up on my 'offer'. What a complicated, odd interaction I seem to have with the Highlord. It's becoming less intimidating and more direct each time, and I think it will end up being quite beneficial. Hopefully both ways.
