As a member of the Iron Guard, people take many things I say with weight I never meant it to carry. For instance, when I suggested we start calling the Cullers the Crullers in an effort to trick them into becoming bakers, I wasn't being serious. The idea was half-baked at best.

It is good to see a work complete at last. When I lay my hands upon the walls of the Rose of Solace, I think that, should all things proceed as they should, it will stand for long after I die. It will stand for long after my name is forgotten. Gods willing, it will stand so long until its own name is forgotten.
Further, it puts me in a mind to rebuild. Thinking about it and then Highhill reminds me that we are all always walking along the edge. I will take the things I have learned here with me as I go to reclaim that land, and prepare it so the tragedy of the Steelharts cannot happen again.

Absolutely thrilled to be hosting an event this week along with Tyche in recognition of the hard work that we've done. A good opportunity to meet and greet, but mostly simply a celebration of my own return to Arx!
My favorite part of planning the parties is working out all the little details where I tell people what to do.

I find I am more impressed by the man who makes the choice for light having lived a life plunged in darkness than I am by the one who chooses light and always has. The latter merely does what they have always known and always done. True change came from the former.

It was never an easy path, at one point a step forward and then one backwards before a turn left and right, but you have done it once again good Brother. Working up to lead the Southport Navy once again. Your dedication to improvement of your self, of those you lead and have looked up to you are a testament to the education both mother and father put you through.
They would be, once again, proud.

Sister Astrid has been a boon to me since the day I met her. A pleasant woman who is eager to serve the faith and offer guidance to all those around her, as well as beauty to others. I was ever pleased to hear of her elevation to Archlector, so well deserved, so she can touch and reach even more.
Congratulations, my friend.
May Gild's blessing shine upon you.

Relationship Note on Jeffeth
I have been reminded of why I do not often write in the Whites, preferring to keep my thoughts scribed in Black and kept away. But I have determined to do better, and in more than one way, I shall.
I wrote about a dramatic fight in the Training Center before. A spar, willingly entered into by both parties. A remarkable feat of endurance by a woman chosing to test herself against one of the finest Arx has to offer in the field of martial combat.
Sir Jeffeth Bayweather is an intriguing figure, coming from humble origins, raised in the Tragedy, he has devoted his life to the Knights of Solace. Indeed, the two are fairly synonymous in Arx these days.
So I will say this: Sir Jeffeth Bayweather respects people. When they come at him, he gives them exactly what they ask for. He was the winner of the bout, and he worked for it - taking cuts and providing a worthy opponent for Messere Qadira. And when the battle was ended, he showed concern and care for her, same as any other. It was clear to me that this was a match between two warriors, testing themselves, and if I have given any impression to the contrary, I am deeply sorry.
Gloria would have looked upon the clash between Sir Jeffeth Bayweather and Qadira Thorne with pride, and they are both the better for having had it.

You are enough.
You are the only one that is walking your own path. You should strive to do that with an authentic choice. Do not mind the people in the other paths, that path is not yours.
Know you are blessed beyond measure.

It's never easy to make decisions when one carries as much responsibility as you do. As you've proven yourself to be a man guided by the grace of the gods, who knows when a fight is just and necessary, it is my hope that more feel inclined to reach out to the Templars in times of peril.

My most deepest and heartfelt congratulations on your appointment!

I've always been a forgetful one, even when I was but a girl. My memories find a way of slipping through the cracks if I don't monitor them closely. It would be a simple enough cause and effect to blame the alcohol, or the repeated blows to the head I've endured since my career as a pugilist began in earnest, but not the truth of the matter.
There are things in this life I'll not forget, but if I chance to look upon you blankly, or misrecall our meetings, pray don't take it to heart, for it is my own failing, not your lack of significance.
I'm making better notes, now.

I've found a particularly young and friendly scholar who I believe I can be friends with. I still do not know if I want to write anything in the Black, however. Keeping secrets was never my forte (and so, keep that in mind, dear reader). Lady Veronica was very busy today with things that didn't require someone of my talents, and so I had most the day to myself. Rather than go off into the city to meet more nobility, I worked most the day with the personal guard of House Keaton.
They're a well-drilled bunch and I think I learned a lot from them. Still, they treat me as a commoner would a nobleman, and it unnerves me. I know being a knight affords me certain privileges, but I would rather be seen by the smallfolk as what I am -- one of them.
I've been thinking too much -- a byproduct of the capital, no doubt.
Please note that the scholars may take some time preparing your journal for others to read.
