Sometimes I believe people forget we are more than what people imagine we are, what they heard we are like.
Northerners are more than naked bear wrestlers for voyeurs... and it annoys me to have to even say those words.

I was quite happy to take a moment to join the get together hosted by Lord Martino and Lady Catalana. While I did not participate in the drink making, I was honored to hear Baroness Lucita sing. Beautiful as always.

Relationship Note on Marian
Way of the world.
A few winters come, you'll struggle remembering how it ever seemed clever to seek out sharp metal set at you in anger.
And with an ever-flowing tide of young folk to remind you how you'd been a time.

When dealing with your healer, people of the Compact, remember these rules. They are not the boss of you. If you die because you're stubborn that's your own damn business. Demand they are not allowed to tend to you while wearing knives, so you can speak your mind without threat of violence.

For all the faults one may level against this Prince of Thrax the truth remains that when the moment came it was he who remained and others who left. Nothing is more revealing as a moment of disaster.

Being 43 is not noticeably different from being 42, I've found. Birthdays used to matter a lot more, somehow.

Deception.
The word seems horrible to even write on a journal entry. It just is the opposite of everything I try to be. Perhaps I am unwise to just take people mainly for what they seem. Then I question. It starts down a path of twisted thorns that I sometimes forget are with the petals. There are always paths lain before us. They radiate our wants, our needs, and our oaths. We have to decide which to take. Do we trust one over another? Do we deny what our heads say to follow our hearts? Do we silence our hearts to heed our minds? Which is the foolish path?
I find myself musing this, perhaps it is because the winds grow colder and the spring of love is fading ever fast. Maybe it the city and the awe that it has struck in me. I am not upset nor do I feel fully deceived. It is just a question that was poised and one I am not sure how to answer. How does one know if another is truthful? Which is better to see the shadows, or to dance in the warmth of the sun?

Ahh, I have entered your dreams...
I would never, ever, wake you at 3 AM, my Pookie.
.... Brenlin might, though. Once a Duck Platter Thief, always a brigand!
.... Ahem.
... Ok, there was, maybe a 3 AM secret meeting in the Menagerie... It may not have been all Brenlin's idea.

My little sister proves time and time again just how marvelous she truly is. I doubt there is anything in all of this vast world of ours that will ever stop her bright spirit. Having her in Arx is a blessing for not only me but for our family, our House. There's nothing I wouldn't do for her.

Relationship Note on Malcolm
Another year older, another year wiser. Another year closer to the goal I've had for quite some time now.
I would thank my exceptional Patron, Duke Malcolm Shepherd, for his entirely-too-generous gift of donating a vast amount of silver to the Faith of the Pantheon in my name. Surely, it resounds in the ears of the Gods and I am well pleased.
What does this new year hold?

Wish I could have made the Ball Martino and Catalana hosted. I hope the drinks were well received at least. Alas, paperwork. As obligations go up, free time goes down. One does as they may and delegates, but with so many irons in the fire, things spring up last minute more often than I would like and duty must come before pleasure when one is attempting to be responsible.

I am going with Sir Preston. I will do my best to represent my family and serve the faith.
I am honored that he choose to take me and I hope to be of help to the GrandMaster.
I read Sir Preston's journal and I also feeling that going is the right to thing to do.
I hope to return, but if I do not, know that I choose the path and dangers of warrior.
I am thankful to the people of Compact for being so wonderful, supportive and understanding.

Southport. The City of Swords. My return here has been a happy one for the most part. The joy felt from holding my daughter Palania in my arms again. The feeling of waking up next to my wife Aahana again. I doubt there is any feeling better than those. My days have been spent attending to duties with the fleet and few things stiffen the backs of the sailors than their Admiral appearing on deck. They know their trade though and after meeting with Captains and Commodores I feel as confident as I ever have done in their capabilities. Captain Antigius challenged me to a spar. I feel he was mildly surprised by the result.
