Well, we've certainly raised the bar on these tea and coffee puns!
These are so good, it's hard to keep track of the big pitcher.
People seem to have gone ale out!

What a brewtiful morning!

I wasn't going to say anything, but it's just such a strain. Those puns were of shockingly low qualitea. You can and should do better.

Relax, I'm only TEAsing. More puns would be a steep ask, as I find this to be getting rather teadious. Goodbye!

Puns aren't just awful. They're tearable!

[It looks like someone tried to tear this journal entry in half! Thank goodness the scholar stopped them.]

I suppose I can grind out a pun or two, so long as I'm not roasted for it. I haven't bean in the past.

I am glad you liked my coffee, Zaina. It was nice to meet more people from Eurus. Thank you for coming by to visit the shop!

No! NO! You don't know what you're doing! Take it back, quickly, before it all starts!

It's not a secret.

I have a weakness for puns.

I haven't encountered any good ones in a while.

Is the city up for the challenge? Show me what you've got.


Bad dreams make for gray mornings, but puns? Puns are better than Haze-infused coffee.

Very soon, small groups of Explorers will be heading to Stormwall to see what heirlooms they can find that might have survived the great fire. It will be interesting to see how well they do over terrain that we know, before settling some in terrain we do not know. This is the first of many projects to come. I wonder how Cadenza is doing with her group of Explorers with Darkwater Watch.

Business is still good, and my living quarters are more livable now that I've replaced the old furniture. I've met a few good people too, from all walks of life. I'm really settling into this city nicely.

The patron fair is coming up today. I plan on attending.

Is my daughter trying to say, "Mother, a wolf followed me home, may I keep it?"
Goats dear. Goats, and chickens, and so many hounds. And small children.

There is a kind of loneliness that only comes from the absence of a presence you are used too. Even if it was a silent one, it was there. And I feel that empty quiet much more than the full one as we scribbled our various bits of research side by side. I do hope things are going well in Darkwater. But once again I find myself proven right. Everyone leaves.

What?

With the Shadow Carnival coming up, my attention has turned to my wardrobe and I have come to realize I need something new for this. Something grandiose. I have more than a few ideas in my mind, the question is determining which I want to pursue - and which I want to keep for more private usage.

A truly daunting thing.

In the meantime, I am working on getting my shoulder back into working condition. There are many well-intentioned people out there advising me to slow it down, take it easy. It happens nearly every time I pick up a sword. One even told me I should be refusing to duel while this heals. I laid in bed, ill, for months, and if anything it got worse. Pushing myself as far as I can go, and further beyond that still remains the only thing that ever seems to do me any good.

Of course, this applies even outside the arena.

What are a few more scars, after all?

Shard, I'm not sure what catty thing you'll find to say to this one, but I'm sure you'll find something. I look forward to it.

I thought I woke
to you right there
no words we spoke
no uttered care.

Your curve of lips,
you said 'Oh Josie'
the cold fingertips
tore right through me.

'Sister,' I prayed,
'Ianthe, it's me.
'You should have -stayed-
'and never gone to sea.'

Twenty three years as of yesterday I've been alive. Four years I've been free since being released from Thralldom by Princess Donella. About nine months I've been a duelist in Arx. My life has changed so fast. So many ups and downs, twists and turns, but yet always growth and improvement. I've become faster, stronger, smarter, smoother then I've ever been. I am a star that rises but never falls, I can not go anywhere but up.

City life here in Arx is quite a lot different from what I'm used to. Not more complicated, but different. Of course, I didn't anticipate a protracted stay. But a protracted stay I may have. I'll spend a little time expanding my cultural knowledge and seeing what serves for parties in this noble city of ours. And, of course, catching up with my family. Arx seems to have attracted them all here, one by one by one.
