A Blackram Lady, new in the City of Arx. Seems to really like the concept of hunting. We met and talked, I hope she will purchase a blade from me someday.

Tides come and go, and yet we survive. Thrax has been busy with our ever powerful Highlord taking the reins and binding alliances to work together against the forces of the Gyre, the Abyss and others. It is heartening to see the power of Maelstrom rising using cooperation and unity versus division and mistrust, and I hope my fellow Thraxans see this too. But I've been thinking heavily on activities have been happening here in Arx and what that might pose beyond the illuminated boundaries of the Compact and its allies.
There are two laws which nature follows, always. The first is for every action, there is an equally powerful reaction. The second is you cannot create out of nothing, creation requires sacrifice.
What if for every prayer the Faith gives, for every gathering of the people for devotion and worship, there is an equal one given to which we of the Compact fight against? The other worry is that for all the focus we give currently to Thraxan ships and navies of the allies, what exactly are we taking power or blessings away from? Power is not without end, there is alway a cost.

I was going to argue that there is nothing stupid about sailing off to Maelstrom to protect the innocents there, regardless of the color of one's boat. Then I realized that is not true. There is plenty foolish about doing such and if one values their life above all things, it is downright foolish. It is still the right and the honorable thing to do.
The color of my boat, my gear and my weapons doesn't make me less of a warrior or less of a protector. If, I return alive, we can duel over whether putting up a pink flag and etc into my boat was dumb or not. I would love to duel in defense of the color pink and stand up against such a fine warrior as Prince Fergus or his chosen champion would be an honor.

It was drawn to my attention that a question was presented to me recently, in a journal entry. An answer seems necessary.
No.

Could you be less of a fucking dick for just one moment? Or is that stick shoved so far up your ass that's not possible at this point?
Also, pink boats are fucking stupid.

We called that: Sailing around Tor toward Southport. I have been told I am an expert hand on a ship. Without hands.

Jokes? Who said anything about "jokes"?
I'm fairly certain everything that was written, was the voice of truth.
Ask Prince Darren.
Likewise, when Vellichor begins eating the most inane of entries? You'll fade with history. Don't climb on a high horse you have no place on.

Dick jokes. That's what people are transcribing for Vellchor? Gods help us. Why can't that jackass eat and erase those instead of useful information? That bitched, why hasn't anyone made a 'pink canoe' joke about Reese's ship? Sexist, is what it is.
Other news, up to my eyeballs in work. Wouldn't have it any other way.

I have been to many exotic places and met many exotic people. But you have by far the most exotic clothes in fashion that I have ever seen. You should go to some of the local tailors and see if you can start a trend.

In all of the haste surrounding the preparations for the Gray Forest expedition, in all of the work for the tasks I set myself upon our return, I somehow managed.... to forget my own birthday, only two days passed. They say that the most predictable thing of all is the steady march of time, and yet it is almost always the thing that surprises us most.
It seems this nebulous 'they' is correct yet again. Will I one day wake to find that, instead of a few more days slipping by than I thought, I have a head full of silver hair with little recollection or how or when that happened?

Relationship Note on Aislin
Lady Aislin Ashford has a preference for /not/ discussing the Horrible Monster of the Day, and one cannot blame her for it. She knows so much about the threats we face that one cannot help but want to pick her brain for every last detail about them.
But I resisted. Mostly.
Instead, we spoke of our homelands, and her treehouses. To be noble is to be wedded not just to a people, but to a place, to know it as well as your family and your friends. Lady Aislin, I think, shares that view, and it was good to connect with someone who does. We discussed our hopes and wishes for the future -- even those hopes and wishes that may be far-fetched under current circumstances. Lady Aislin, I do not know if your fondest wish will come true. But I hope that it does. You are definitely deserving.

I pride myself on being a very proper and polite young lady of the Oathlands. However, today I said some very unbecoming things. I apologize to everyone who had to hear them. And, reader, I beg you please to flip past the rest of this page, but I shall archive them here so that future generations will know what I had to atone for saying...
Limerance forsaken, Gloria smote, Mangata drowned scoundrel.
Black hearted rogue.
Improper besprawler.
Driggle-draggle fopdoodle.
Whifflewhaffle.
Gild banished triptaker.
Vellichor despised snoutband.
I am very, very sorry for my poor choice of language, and pray the gods shall forgive me.
