I've all but finished the work on the house, so now all that's left to do is decorating it. I'll save some of that for Alexander, I wager. My scholar-brother will no doubt want a study.

Why does he care about my hair being untamed? It's always been like that, no matter what I do with it since I was a child.
He also compared me to a cat.

There were all manner of treats and things to look at. I acquired a jar of Laurent Honey, and there was even a book being shown around. It was fascinating in its own gruesome way. It told the tale of three cocks embattled over doing their duty. I had mentioned to Lady Jael that I felt the parable was lost in the glorification of all that cock on cock violence. But then the good lady made the valid point that perhaps it is in the graphic and precise language of said violence that the lesson resides. Is it a treatise on how our culture has grown numb to ever escalating and grandiose displays of violence? Have we as a culture embraced battle and hardship to such a degree that it takes it being perpetrated by three cocks to shake us from our complacency and say, "Here... let the rending of our cocks cease?"
Thoughts to think on, certainly.

I dare not broach the topic of my husband in these pages. I think I might possibly use every page I see in trying to express my admiration for the man, composing poetry on the topic of his eyes or lips (likely both), or a dissertation on the ways in which I've gotten him to almost - almost! - laugh.
It is amazing how one's perspective can change so drastically in a week and a half's time. When first I came to Arx I was dragging my feel, loathe to even think about my upcoming nuptials, filled with dread and unease wondering who my husband would be. What kind of man he would be. To say it has been a pleasant surprise is quite the understatement. Limerance is looking out for me. I shall say extra prayers to him this week.

In recognition of five hundred years of peace between the Twilight Court and the Compact of Arvum, established by the original treaty signed by Queen Alarice the Great and King Calithex of the Twilight Court, it is the hope of the Compact and the Twilight to renew and strengthen those bonds and establish a new era of peace. The terms agreed upon by the Compact and the Twilight Court are as follows:
1. In the event of grave threat, aid may be provided to the Compact, as supplied by the Nox'alfar. King Calithex's own personal blade shall, as a symbol of this covenant, remain in the possession of King Alaric Grayson IV.
2. The Night Grove shall remain the sole possession of the Twilight Court, and no human may trespass save those given leave by the Nox'Alfar. The payment of the Teind cannot be in any way infringed.
3. The Keepers of the Teind shall be recognized as servants of the Twilight Court. These human vassals of the Nox'alfar remain sworn only to the Twilight Court, and will never be forced to bend the knee to the Compact, nor shall the Compact wage war upon them, and their independence in the Gray Forest shall be guaranteed.
4. The Nox'alfar shall use the full extent of their knowledge and abilities to draw King Alaric IV from the persistent illness caused by the Exsilium Noctis.
5. The Crown of the Compact and the Twilight Court shall be made closer by blood. Lady Symonesse Marin'luna of the Twilight Court shall wed King Alaric Grayson IV, becoming Queen Symonesse Grayson in accordance with Arvum's customs. Once per generation, a Peer of the Compact shall marry a Nox'alfar of noble house of the Twilight Court to renew these bonds.
6. Both parties agree to mutual defense upon the gravest of threats. If the Teind is ever broken, and the Silence seeks to return to the world and strike at Our Lady of Twilight's Children, then the Compact shall send its most puissant knights not trained in the arts to fight against the Bringers of Silence. Likewise, if Legion shall return to the world, or any of the other Archfiends, and another Reckoning is imminent, the Twilight Court shall come to the aid of the Compact if such a request is made.
7. As communication is the best way to ensure lasting bonds do not wither, the Compact offers the Twilight Court a place within the Crown Ward of Arx on which to construct an enclave to house a permanent Nox'alfar diplomatic presence. This embassy is given over with the intent that the Nox'alfar may treat the space within the walls as their own, free from the laws and prohibitions of the Compact.
Signed, Duke Gabriel Bisland, Crown Regent of His Majesty King Alaric the Fourth, Sovereign of the Compact of Arx
Signed, Prince Tyrval Ael'Noctis, Crown Prince of the Twilight Court, Scion of the Nox'alfar, Second Best Blood Mage, Possessor of Exactly Half of Calithex's Titles Depending Upon How They Are Recited
