Relationship Note on Ophira
In this last year in Arx, I can confidently say I have never seen a noblewoman climb over a bar in a fancy dress. Twice. Serving her will not be my duty, but also my pleasure.

Relationship Note on Cristoph
So. Many. Babies.
Thank goodness for bee wax rolls in one's ears.
I think I will build myself a room in another floor.
Oh and congratulations, Duke!

For once this week, I indulged myself in 'what if'. What if I had said yes instead of no? What ifs, boundless as the stars; what would've beens, my mind full of them. What if life is as simple as a single, infinite moment? Of course, that's the guilty masochism of the what-if game. You can never know the answer to the question. You can only know the answer to one thing.
What is.
What is.

Lord Jyri has asked me to help him with his fundraiser auction and I could not be more pleased to do so! If you are an artist that would like to donate a piece--well, details will be forthcoming, but do write and let me know!

There is a distinct difference in the way that we raise her. And in the way that she treats each of us. Together in her presence, she strives to balance the expectations of manners and etiquette from myself, even as she is soon set to turn six. But when I have left, she turns into a craven little beast, that half the time seems to care not to listen to him. And yet, she is his heir and so, I hold my tongue. At least, from him and her. Now, her tutors, a far different thing. Gods help me, when I heard she just yammered Yaya endlessly while chasing the fish, it was a good thing that I was in repose to aid my sides in healing faster.
I do not remember being so willful as a child. She must surely get such from him.

The Harlequins are doing better than ever. I'm proud of the flock we are pulling together. Though I'm always looking for more.
Perhaps I should look beyond the walls of Arx.

Gilden's Golden Moo, will take down Bonnie. I am sure of it. So very sure of it. Xavier is quite sure of it, even though his cow is being pitted against his family's bovine offerings. I have faith though. Go go Goldie, you have Lord Sanna to guide you. You can do it.

With nearly every wandering, a new memory is brought forth. Some leave the heart aching, but many bring a bubbling of mirth that is hard to contain. When I saw the young lords and ladies dancing this evening, I remembered the game that Lady Rosehips and I used to play whenever there was a ball, to see how many times along the pass I could make her partner's eyes turn my way, or vice versa. An innocent game, though I cannot say it didn't ever end up in a flare of temper. Though one thing I can say is that, Lady Rosehips, being of much more ample...charms, than I, was a very fierce competitor for the gaze indeed.
And another one whose journals I dare not seek out, not yet, to know if she too is gone. I will, when I am brave enough. But tonight, feeling the warm glow of a fine wine, and enjoying a cooling walk after the press of so many excited partygoers, perhaps once I got to the lonely part of the streets here and there I might have danced in her honor, and smiled to hear her triumphant laughter in the autumn night's wind.

I managed to get a few pieces of honeysilk and now sit here holding it and am uninspired on just what to ask the tailor to do with it. I guess a new dress will have to wait till I decide.

Such a talented artist. And one who speaks wisely when one takes time to really settle down into conversation with him. He does the Whispers proud.

The Grand Opening of the Pravus Ward was an affair I will not soon forget. The wine, the company, and the ward itself (I admit to getting a little lost so was able to explore more than I had intended to, at first) were truly a feast for the eyes and spirit. Conversations with extended family, old friends and new, were diverse and quite enjoyable. Nina Autumndale's fan favors were all so stunning, it was hard to choose just one. I'm going to place mine in the Redrain Grand Library as a reminder of the event. I even danced competitively! Except not really, but sort of. All told, it was a grand time and I am grateful for such generous hospitality and fun.

I tried to go to this Pravus party. I was barred from crossing the bridge. This was a complete surprise! Seems I am barred from the PRavus district. I have no idea why!

I attended the third Feast of the Senses held by Archduchess Jaenelle. I went with trepidation, unsure who I would be paired with, and what we might have to try to eat while blindfolded. I shouldn't have been nervous though, Jaenelle hosted beautifully, and my trust in her was not misplaced. The food was delicious, truly... most of it. There were perhaps a couple courses that did not please me as much as others, but overall... divine. And, the conversation I had with my companion for the evening was fabulous. Thank you, Jaenelle and he who wore the crimson sash, for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Also...it's really pretty as you make yourself there. It's not a bad ward. I'll have to look around more..

Too many have seen fit to ask about more cow races. Lady Kalani is near insistent that each of the Grayson Duchies host one. Bisland would be next, and Duchess Delilah would need to host Shepherd's.
