Ford
Marquis Ford Kennex is on ideas of a way to help Thralls and former Thralls live better. He is a weird man. He is also difficult.

Merek
Master Merek has a good head on his shoulders, in spite of the heroics he attempted to partake in while armorless during his first day on the job. Thankfully his recklessness hasn't persisted and he is now acquainting himself well with influential members of society in lieu of being a good guardsman.
Also I like the goblet he made me.
With some luck, he'll get to where he wants to go.

I've been an Iron Guard for quite a while, and while I might not agree with all his decisions, I respect them and do the duties which I have been assigned. He is perhaps the best Lord Commander I've heard of in recent times, of any organization with hierarchal military structure. It's our duty to keep the peace, even with a siege happening, and as such, he has a lot to deal with, more than most might understand.

Bianca
She has been quite busy in recent times. It is hard to catch up with her, but we had a drink together, and we are still working on investigations. Hopefully, we'll be able to help out Arx with it.

Mira
Mira is a nice lawyer that I've met twice. She is handling my personal documents, which I'm grateful for, and I believe I saw her at one of the recent battles, helping people escape the Bringers. It's refreshing to see people fighting for the right, even when not everyone can fight in real combat. Though I should probably suggest self-defense, and a small weapon to folk.

The surprise at family dinner was that Lady General Calypso was giving out award for the people who helped her out on her attack, and so now I have medal. And I'm not even a soldier. But it was hard work, to be sure...march all day and then have the forge ready at night to work on peoples' gear. Now with the siege on I've got kids out bringing in whatever scrap metal they can find. Most it is junk like tin and copper, but there's some scrap iron, too, and with the gates sealed we need all we can find. And Prince Anze came in to have me work on his gear, and when I was done he gave me a whole thousand silvers. That's worth losing a few hours sleep for.

Addendum to the previous journal: It should be noted that Kennex does not flay. It does not add much, and is unnecessarily messy.

I hear so much dissent from the soft crownlanders about the use of the crosses against those who commit treason against their liege. Treason, might I remind the reader, which is a sin against Limerance.
I ask you, would you prefer that a traitor receive a hug and an apology? Where else do they belong but on the crosses, living out their last hours in agony? An unspeakable punishment? Yes, for an equally unspeakable crime.

I think I should play a game of bed, wed, or behead more often. Though I suppose I would need friends to play games.

So many years have passed
The dew is still on the roses
I left my childhood
In a garden green
Come in the garden and look at the trees
I used to play there when I was a child
Squirrels and birds, little fairies
Settled down there long ago
So many years have passed
The dew is still on the roses
I left my childhood
In a garden green
Come in the garden and sit on the grass
I used to sit there when I was a child
Ivy and moss, little daisies
Covered the lane long ago
So many years have passed
The dew is still on the roses
I kept my memories
In that garden green
I kept my memories
In that garden green

Aislin
A call was made throughout the city of Arx for those who seek and share an affinity for adventure. Naturally I was curious about a gathering of like minded individuals even though I have led something of a sheltered and pampered life until I came to Arx. Lady Aislin Ashford was at the helm that evening, guiding the mass of people who all had something to share. Never once did she seem overwhelmed of flustered by sheer amount of participants or the questions they asked. She directed every situation that came her way and offered information and her experiences freely. I knew then that she was a great lady of merit. Lady Aislin never disappoints and I am grateful for the wisdom she shares with me.

Vibrating strings create lovely,
Intensely beautiful sounds
Of artistic expressions and emotions.
Lullabies, filled with
Internal longings discovered.
Nostalgia waves hello.
Slumbering Softly.

Finding solace in these troubling times
tears to my eyes though only in private
joy is there
as is sorrow
in something so simple, yet so complex
as a cello or violin or viola
emotions they hurt and awaken
but are so lovely and needed
feeling, cherishing each one
for it means I am alive and breathing
overcome and wonderfully overwhelmed by it
whispering of the breeze through the trees
a bright and dazzling smile
sweet dreams on fluffy clouds
every sight and sound
screaming its own personal emotion
as if saying hey you!
yes you
I am alive

Edward
}Painted in watercolors, is Lord Edward within the gardens of the Grotto, The man is potrayed as a slim fellow with an athletic runner's build, the painting is striking likeness to the model from his dark brown hair and intense blue colored eyes. The painter embellished his eyes making them appear lifelike and glistening. A nice smile with soft gentle lips and the fine lines within them making him look almost kiss ready. His complexion was tanned and he looked nicely dressed in fine clothing. On the bottom of the portrait is signed "Princess Ailys"
<Default Dicestring> Ailys has rolled a critical success! Ailys checked intellect against difficulty 20, resulting in 69, 49 higher than the difficulty.{
