Dearest princess, I do apologize for the distress my absence caused! Fear not, give it but a short while and all memory of my temporary leaving of the city shall be forgotten, replaced with more pleasant memories of amusing commentary and breathtaking songs!
Yes, nothing less.

I have meant to write to you inquiring as to what was happening with that so I would be DELIGHTED to host the next one! Perhaps I shall see you at the reception tonight to discuss it! I suppose I could have just sent a messenger, but I was here and Scholar Oswyn is very amenable.
Say, Scholar Oswyn, do you have plans tonight?

I never noticed the capital T. I hope my eyes aren't failing. Not a good fate for an artist.
That said, I will bake you all the scones you wish nonetheless. To go with tea. Capital tea, in fact. My family is known for it.
(Not an advertisement for Mercier tea. Not even slightly.)
(I'm lying, it really is.)

I have enjoyed plays on words, an amusing debate, and the company of a very astute iron guard. Today has been a success, by any measure.

My lord Redtyde,
A question that it had never occurred to me to investigate until now but I'm suddenly very curious to know the answer.

subject: Compound names
While I highly doubt it is the same circumstance for each of those (did your family used to be the Gray and the Hopes? Gray is such a gloomy last name), perhaps you are correct. After all, only my niece is around to correct me, and Margot is a Tyde, not a Redtyde, so who would argue.
After this many years, it does look odd though, Archlectors GrayHope.

Look, my family name is a compound word, too, and we don't do any weird shit with our proper nouns. There's a hundred noble houses in this city with mashed together words for their names, look at Redrain! RedRAIN? No.
You want to stand out, you do you, I'm just saying: capital letters in the middle of words? I'm judging you, is what I'm saying.

subject: capitalizatin of REDTYDE
The way my family name is spelled has been passed down since we branched off from house Tyde many generations ago. It is a time-honored and well-established tradition.
And I do not understand it any better than you do. I asked when I was younger why it had to stay that way, and never got a straight answer. And now there is nobody left to ask, so...

Scholar, I'm gonna need you to use your big letters for this one.

I HAVE AMOUNTED TO SOMETHING IN MY LIFE.

I forgot to add, and Scholar please make sure this entry is made as public as possible: I am seeking hostesses for the next Skirt and Gown night. For those who do not know, these are laid back evenings where women of all stations in Arx come together to mingle, share stories, discuss current events, and otherwise get to know one another.
The first was hosted at the Ebb and Flow, but there were many activities bandied about for subsequent gatherings. Unfortunately, one of my newer, younger assistants threw out the list of those who had offered to host. So, any who might read these words and be interested in hosting an event or activity for the ladies of the city, please contact me.
Yes, Scholar, that will be all for today. I promise.

Now, I know what you want to say. "Itzal! It's been so long! My life was lost without your witty and entertaining journals! Where have you been? How could you leave us in the cold and dark?"
Let me first say I never left, I was always in your heart, merely content with biding my time before making a triumphant return!
So yes I'm back. Everyone can rejoice now! So what did I miss?
My that's a lot of dead people.

The Bard's College is now an officially recognized organization in Arx. I've sent out a number of messengers during the process of legitimizing the organization, so hopefully there will be more members soon.
The college is an organized group of people with with common interests; while I'd like to help teach students one day, there is no formal instruction set up at the moment.
First, we'll need instruments. And actual furniture.
Maybe once we have a considerable number of small, inexpensive drums or tabrets, we can go to the Lowers orphanage and have an activity with the children there.
