I've been wondering what to get her as a gift. I'm not a silk, so I'm not rich - but I know that doesn't matter too much. But when you think of it, everyone goes out and buys all these immensely expensive gifts - I can't afford that sort of thing. I'm not a crafter, or a merchant. Will have to figure something out..

I've began making my own designs for weapons now. The quality of the steel here is amazing - compared to what we had to scrounge and forge from bloom, this is like stepping into a new era.

Been thinkin', me. Been thinkin' I might should get Vandred somethin' nice to wear. I mean, iff'n I'm gunna have him representin' me, if him's gunna be standin' 'round in the background when I'm presentin' my goods, he might as well be lookin' the part of someone deservin' of drownin' in my mighty shadow. ... n'some boots. Some nice boots. Where'm I gunna find some bloody boots....

I'll tell you what, though. I got one of them fancy gold quills and a book. I've never actually owned a book before. Although it's already written in. I wonder if I pawn this off if I could get my own book.

Been sellin' a fair bit of left over brews, I have, makin' me some friends in the process. Always nice to have friends, it is, I suppose, maybe. It's alright. ... On second thought, might well want to be left to my thoughts, I might. I do! Pah. Folk sendin' me messages'n what have you like they know me. They don't know me, them. Don't know ol' Jac's problems, them lot, they don't.

That gala. Goodness, that gala. Aren't never seen so many damned people, I haven't, and aren't one of them got anythin' interestin' t'say. Swear it were like bein' invited somewhere t'watch people you dunno talk about shit you don't wanna know. That said, it did look lovely, it did, and the coin weren't so bad. ... got a nice quill, too, I did, now I don't have to use my hatpins. ... but... I like my hatpins, me... I do... do indeed.

The Gala came and went. To be honest, it was a bit too much for me. There's too many folks, and they're all bustling around and chatting and all sorts. I even heard a few talking about scanadlous things.

If anyone wonders why... There was a poster in the city square...

Know that one thousand and nine years have passed since the Reckoning. Today is the fifth day of the sixth month. I am writing from the city of Arx at the Caravan Mercantile Echange in the Ward of the Compact. I am Candace Corvo, partner of the Exchange, and this is my white journal.
Things have gone better than I could have imagined. The whelkies are entirely gone, sold for a meager profit by the scale of things, but the trader confided in me that a shaman had given him the items. Said they were blessed and that they would find their way into the hands of those who need them. I am unsure of what to think about this, but the trader seemed happy and thus I am happy.
Or rather, I was. Bethicus, one of the younger caravan hands, says she "found" something on her trip southward. She'd been out of Arx four months, plying one of the same routes that I traveled with the Crimson Caravan in years past. I know those trails well, and yet, she said there was a small settlement that hadn't been there from my recollection. I don't know if I believe her, but I have never known her to lie, so what am I to think when she says that she "found" a small rubicund and stygian statue?
We are torn as to whether to put it up for consignment. Neither of us can bear its hideous presence, and yet, it is undeniably a piece of art. An expensive piece of art.

Dear journal, the Damsel is whole again, or at least as whole as she's ever going to be. The main beam is still held together by bolts and plates, making the whole thing untenable for ramming of any sort. Which means... cargo. Eight feet of tuna when we have a day and a pressing need.
I saw a whale today. I think it's an omen.
What do you mean you have to be at the academy in a few minutes? I'm still... give that_~_~____~_~~~~~

There is a big huge coffee stain as well as blurred ink on this page....

The gala last night was amazing. I'm sure many people have said so, and more meaningfully, but it really was a thrill.

I am starting to worry about my wife. The scent of bacon is making her nauseous, as well as the scent of coffee. She can only drink tea and salted beef. She also complained of her breasts being sore...

I am about to embark on what may be the defining mission of my life... or my last. I do not wish to let loved ones and friends down. However, I must accept the reality that I may not return.
We abandoned the Marin'Alfar, it happened. We owe them. -I- owe Prince Rhaine. This is not just about adventure. I believe this will also be about our survival as a people. This is about Duty. We failed in our duty and vigilance so long ago, and much was lost and forgotten.
This may be the end of my life. This may be my last white journal. Yet, it must be done.
To my family, I love you. To my Son, you've made me proud. To my friends, wish me luck. If I do not see you again, perhaps I have joined my Mirabel and have found peace.
However, at this time? I'd prefer to come back with all my bits this time, and enjoy some stiff drinks!

I've heard he single-handedly slayed a ravenous, bloodthirsty, book-destroying bear. Or was it that he intends to? One or the other.

My most thoughtful, gracious and creative Lady is now wed! I was privileged to see her rise from Lady to Marquessa, and now I have had a hand in seeing her take the next step in this life, which is truly a blessing. I'm fortunate to have served her as lady's maid and more fortunate to have her as a friend.
Addendum: This was not a paid endorsement of the Marquessa in question. I truly do just like her that much and am not angling to have at least one child named after me.
Post-Addendum Addendum: Though if she did, I would be very, very honoured.

I want to set in the whites my thanks to Monique of Greenmarch and Prince Tyrval Al'Noctis, for the Gala they held.
I ain't so much a man for happy times and grand affairs, but I were glad for it.

There are so many rumors of pirates and lost ships and the attacks on various merchant vessels alike. If someone has more information and has a desire to discuss remedial activities, please do seek me out in person. Otherwise I am always curious how these things continue to go about unchecked.
