Relationship Note on Vincere
Well.
I suppose we are all week to temptations that make us feel younger than we are.
But Vincere makes me feel very, very young sometimes.

My dear family must think I am a ghost -- I have been cloistered with my books and histories this week and have barely emerged to take tea, much less be properly social.
I shall have to put in a better effort soon, lest they worry too much and send a rescue party to drag me into something frivolous and lighthearted.

Gods, it felt good to have a sword in my hand again, particularly outside of humiliating myself at a tournament. Just -- going blade to blade with Pietro like we used to do as boys.
He's still faster than me, damn it all.

Relationship Note on Aldwin
THe Archscholar is, unsurprisingly, fascinating to talk to. I just... I have such reservations about his openness. Perhaps I am too paranoid these days. I want to trust him, I really do. But when the darkness comes, can we afford to be unbiased? We shall see. I clearly need to speak more with him.

Frenemy? Is that a word? I think Morrighan has decided to be my Frenemy. I am not one hundred percent certain that she actually likes me, but she sends me a lot of messengers, talking about random things. I can't say that it bothers me, she's a pretty good woman for teh Redrain house.

Relationship Note on Donella
Darren speaks well of her but she seems more than capable of speaking well for herself at any turn. She is the Voice of Thrax, after all. She attended my Shaman seminar and was keen to ask questions that came across as curiosity rather than inquisition, for which I am thankful. She keeps interesting company, I must say, and while I find her witty insights appealing, I am not about to let down my guard. Not a woman of masks, but a woman of veils; there is something there that gets a faint silhouette, forever hinted at but not yet revealed.

Relationship Note on Calypso
I met this Lady of War at a chance passing by through the training center. It came to be that we were both invited to Princess Natalia's fashion..meet..and..something. I was happy to have someone to sit beside that shares my same fashion of war, or lack thereof.
She has a quick mind and it makes me wonder if her blades are just as quick. The Lady looks like she could be my Southern counterpart, and I will be surprised if we become anything but fast friends.

The companionship and hospitality of the Radiant, her Whispers and the guild's gorgeous house knows no bounds. I continue to take residence within the crown district as a guest amongst them.
Our dearest Selene is so very busy of late but the Softest Whisper and Champion Bliss is about to take care of all business that needs seeing to as a mutter of urgency.
Even so, it's pleasing to know I can lift some of the burdens of my associates here within these fine walls. They're such a remarkably talented and varied bunch.

Relationship Note on Cordelia
It isn't often that I cross paths with such a woman like Lady Cordelia Grimhall. She's interesting, really. Invigorated by youth, and a sharp mind full of idealistic fantasies not yet besmirched with the harsh bitters of truth. Courageous, but perhaps possessed with a temperament better befitting one born of the North than the Isles. Regardless, I hope to become better acquainted with her in the coming days.

Relationship Note on Natalia
Just because I said I wouldn't make you just any old thing you wanted doesn't mean I insulted you, little missy! I know your reputation.
I didn't even turn you away! If you want to work with me on a commission, I am a willing crafter, but my work doesn't come free of my opinions and my own style guidelines.
It isn't like I am about to put gold, purple and blue feathers on a man, after all.

I had the pleasure of going to the palace hot springs today and despite what they say the city over, they're not a myth! No, they're warm, welcome goodness and I can only imagine how much of a respite they'll be from the harsh winter months.
One day, in a fantasy so far removed from normalcy, I will have an architect supply my future hold with running hot water.
It's glorious.

Relationship Note on Donella
The Voice of House Thrax is a great many things, but boring and unimaginative she is not. I first encountered her on my weekly visit to the Grayson Mansion to speak with one of my cousins, Prince Gareth. She was already engaged in conversation with him, so we embarked on a short walk across the Compact Ward where she kept me near breathless and doubled over with laughter at her unapologetic Thraxian witticisms and jokes at, sadly, my cousin's expense.
But what is perhaps most memorable was our misadventures down on the beaches a few nights ago. I won't write about it here, of course. But Princess Donella Thrax is my partner in crime, and someone I would hope to call friend soon enough.

It seems as though Princess Natalia's event was something of a success. Highborn and esteemed commoner alike were in attendance. While not much discussion was openly facilitated as I hoped, we were regaled with an interesting take of Northern fashion by Princess Freja.

Relationship Note on Freja
Is adoration at first sight a thing? Respect at first sight? I'm not sure what just happened but I was in the Training Center practicing the day away when a tall Redrain Princess named Freja walked in. She is the me of the North, I am almost positive.
All whimsical ideas of friendship aside, however, Freja appears to be the kind of woman I can grow to respect. She loves her home, she is unafraid of speaking up or being bold, and she drinks whiskey. I intend to get to know the woman a little better before throwing around titles and connections, but I do hold a great deal of hope for a lasting friendship. Its good to make allies in new places.

Today I had the good pleasure and honor to have tea with the Archlector of Sentinel. Though there are undoubtedly those who know me that would find my desire to have a good religious discussion peculiar, it is a truth I keep buried within my heart all the same.

What an interesting night it was. Princess Natalia personally invited me to take part of a meeting discussing fashion. Princess Freja stood up and enlighten us with information about what northerners wear. I noted Princess Isabeau's patronage of our local Mercier wine which speaks volume of Valardin's palette towards local things.

I do not know this man well, but there will be time in the future to fix this. If I decide to. I have been given talking points for small talk, though unfortunately the tea party has been postponed and I will have to wait to use them.

I believe that it was mostly a success. I do wonder if the Grand Duchess does not truly like me. She sent a tailor that has insulted me to my event? Perhaps the family does not like that I am a Grayson?
Regardless, Princess Freja spoke with conviction and I do believe that we shall see about this being an ongoing thing.
