Holy shit. I'm getting married tonight! By Aleksei!!! To Ribbons!!!!!!! If someone had told me this a few months ago, I'd have laughed in their faces, asked them to pask the haze and liquor and gone about my day merrily blithe.

But gods am I happy. Happy where I haven't been in so long to this degree.

I only hope I'll make a decent Griffin

The city seems restless, this far into the siege.

How long do the stores of food last, I wonder?

My time lately has been full of a variety of things. Some dangerous, some painful, some supportive, some spiritual... despite all of this, my mind can focus on only one thing fully.

To the last.

I miss the waves every day. I miss being at their beck and call, feeling the rocking world around me every other night, asleep in the hammock. People here are so very nice, it's almost too good to be true. When on the waves you have a very real sense of reality. Nobody hides from you when they can go no further than the other end of the room. Nobody plants a flag in the water and tells you to kneel.

Things are very confusing here. I'm not adjusting well. More wine, I think.

My little cousin is married, I'm happy for her, but I might be more happy to have another northerner in the lycene Ward. It's good to have someone to drink whiskey with.

Do cats need friends? Should I send Gustaf on a play date? I wonder if Gustaf like dogs... He doesn't usually answer me when I ask him questions, real quiet guy.

The rules of the game have changed. It is possible for the player to figure out what the new rules are, to reason and discern their way through them. Old opening moves must be relearned, new moves committed to memory, but it can be done. Though the saying about old dogs and new tricks does come to mind. Still, there is no time to relearn everything, and one must improvise. Needs, after all, must.

Princess Patch as I call her. She stitched me up and likely will need her to again. A nice woman from what I saw.

Soon I will leave to see the wedding, But I do not feel like myself. This skin..these clothes they are so strange to me. How these city folk and southerners wear these shirts I will never understand I fear. It feels nice but every movement I take I feel like I am gonna fucking tear the thing.

It is a sad day, But a good day.

Relationship Note on Shadow

Dear gods, what have I said yes to.

The wedding of my cousin and his beloved draws near and I have been called on to assist Shadow with preparations for the ceremony.

Of course I said yes. How could I not? I feel rather protective of this mountain of a man from the North, though in truth he could snap me (and likely half the city) in two, if he had mind to. But there is an honest gentleness there and something about him that makes me determined to see to his well being and to keep him from harm.

And so I have agreed. Thought this may prove more complicated than both of us bargained for.

In truth, I am not sure how it will go, but I remain optimistic for a happy result. I think we will both be pleasantly surprised.

I just hope we both survive the process.

Silly southern Lords and Ladies, drinking wine and talking about nothing...

Yeah ok, it's not as dumb as I thought. Gossiping is fun sometimes.

Prince Luca and my wedding is soon.

We are keeping it simple, just to friends and family.

Of course our families are huge.

I worked very hard on my vows to Luca.

I wanted them to be perfect and not possessive.

I wrote them in pink down on a book for him.

Mae helped me get the words just right

My dress is white silk, simple.

I got Mae a dress in blue silk.

Sometimes I have to take one for the Guard and pay my retainer in kisses.

Works out well, aye? The retainer doesn't complain. Also, Lord-Commander, it's a discount I offer to no one else, thank you.

Armor shall have to be made and yet I have worn this old suit for many years. The times change and with the trouble that brews not only outside the very gates of Arx, but also in the rest of the world. Dark times are upon us and the symbol of Bastion must be upheld, the thought of that wars against my simpler values, but Rubicund is hard to disguise in a simple manner and make its wearing useful to be seen, to inspire and bring hope to the house of Grayson and its soldiers. The Sword of Bastion will have to look the part and wear the armor meant to protect him. But anything more than Rubicund would cost me a kingdom and the brown like the golden hue of what is being made will fit my bill nicely and proclaim the Sword is with them on the battlefield.

A good voice and a stalwart man. I would not wish to anger him and only make amends. I shall have to find a way to reach out to the Voice of Grayson and do so.

Relationship Note on Lark

In some ways, I see my sister cares and a lot, not that I would like to see it shown in a way that reflects a past of indiscretion or the idea that I would delve into things better left closed. That idea of what I once needed to be washed away, cleansed by me but also cleansed before her and the rest of my family. I hope I have the will to accomplish this task and undo the terrible acts that have fallen under my name when it is spoken by others. No matter how good with a sword I may be.... This view others have of me has begun to weigh on my soul. I will redeem myself my little sister.

I don't have too much to write down these days. I've no opinion that matters about recent events, and I myself haven't been dragged into any matters that call for an entry.

I've been doing work, got a job or two here and there. But mostly I'm not getting any coin out of the Iron Guard for it, and that's just fine by me. It's not the Iron Guard I'm working for after all, even if I'm doing their work here and there. First I'm protecting the city, which means I'm protecting the world I suppose, and the world's where all my things are, which are worth a pretty silver coin or two. And there's a guardswoman who makes sure I'm compensated for my troubles.

I've been to one wedding and I'm going to another. It's spring and that seems like the season for it. And while folk are holding off on the fancier feasts for after the siege is through, it's as good a time as any to do it now. I think if maybe Brand had a sweetheart he'd not be such a sorry ass, too. The world is suffering and I'm so miserable and this and that and I wish it would all end. I've heard better whining at any tavern anyone would care to name.

I think we both love monkeys- the kind we have surrounding us notwithstanding. I wish you the best with Lord Tiber and if you've need of me please let me know. Just take things easy enough you don't rebreak your ribs. I realize I am asking far too much.
