Have had both time and inspiration to paint something larger and worth selling the last few weeks. Griffons are suddenly high up on my list. I can't say exactly why - but I did read some of the myths and legends surrounding griffons in the Whitehawk library, and there were plenty of drawings. I can't say that I fully know what one looks like, but the drawings gave me a good enough idea so I've managed to paint two large paintings.

I figure if I can paint dragons without ever having seen one, I can paint griffons. Though I've yet to successfully paint a white dragon. White is a color I still struggle with.

Relationship Note on Archeron

Husband! I can call you that now. It is a privilege to be wedded to such a Lord like you, Archeron. May we have a happy life together.

Spring! Oh how I love to see Winter melt away but it also is a time of rebirth! A time where the down and dreary bubble forth with life.

Symbolic that we chose to wed in the Spring perhaps.

A new start, a renewed hope.

Keeping one's word can be a mark of pride. No one wants to be treacherous. Yet giving your word for the wrong reason can blacken even that act.

I am no longer an Assistant Guildmaster for the Crafters Guild. I learned this through a general post made to the entire Guild as a whole.

My heartfelt congratulations to our new Assistant Guildmasters however!

Did the rabbit have a scowl and seem the most errant rabbit in all of Arx?

If so, you have caught my pet and eaten him!

Relationship Note on Saoirse

I'm not entirely sure, but I hear men say that women complain a lot. I happen to disagree----Especially as of late.

Relationship Note on Brigida

My dearest gilded Rose, Blessed of the Gods:

I am inclined to believe that is only due to our distance and my inability to hear it. That however can easily be remedied. Preferably sans the pig.

Relationship Note on Brigida

I did.

Just making note of that.

I most certainly did.

But then I think we both did quite a bit of that, standing side by side and watching young things go prancing by in the snow.

Nightmares really make things difficult. I have not been able to sleep well for some time. And so I went to the inn to catch some peace.

Luckily I found it in meeting both Wash and Ian Kennex. Wash seems like an amusing fellow and Ian seems quite used to his silliness. It was a breath of fresh air. I did also get to meet Baltus Darkwater and Aracia Leary, if only briefly. The talk had turned to sailing, and the unease from the nightmare had crept upon me again.

I hope to one day be rid of the nightmares, but I often wonder if this'll carry me on to my dying day.

Ah well, there is writing and research to be done. Time waits for no one, as they say.

The Great Archive is not a place for experimentation, as such has a likelihood to go awry and put the knowledge there in danger. With this in mind, in support of the pursuit of knowledge, we will be looking at building a proper laboratory in the Academy. In the meantime, we ask visitors to find another location to conduct experiments.

Relationship Note on Celeste

During a discussion with Lady Celeste of House Pravus, a question was presented that drew my interest. Whether or not I was interested in the acquisition of a few goats that she was now trying to offload onto someone else. Well the joke's on her, because I gladly accepted her kind gift and now I plan on House Deepwood having the nicest lawn in the whole of the Ward of House Grayson.

Six goats in total have arrived and while I have not named them, I respect the fervor which they take in pursuit of their duty. They will earn names soon enough, I'm sure. Almost immediately their work began and I have spent much of the evening watching them, fascinated by their diligence and seemingly bottomless appetites. There is of course some mess to be removed, but when it's all said and done this grass will be well trimmed, just the way I like it.

Once their work is done, then I will probably need to have signs posted warning others from stepping on this perfect grass. I will notify the Iron Guard of violators. This grass is going to be so darn wonderful.

Thank you, Lady Celeste.

Relationship Note on Cristoph

My beloved three year old nephew has apparently enjoyed the birds I sent a great deal. He has sent me a number of goats in return. This has led me to several discoveries that I will break down into two basic groupings.

People Who Want Goats
* The Marquis Consort of Deepwood
* The Crimson Blades

People Who Do Not Want Goats
* Belladonna

I have also been informed that a collection of goats is sometimes called a trip. We have realized why this might be.

Today, Legate Aureth and I discussed a matter of great importance. For a long time now, a mystery has haunted us. It has made us tear our hair, made worshippers leave hastily, mocked us endlessly, kept us up at night, made us awake screaming...'WHY!'

But no more. We shall stop this. We WILL solve this mystery and put an end to the suffering.

That foul smelling pew in the Shrine of the Queen of Endings and Beginnings - we WILL find out why it smells.

From far off Duskshire, clad in stone, woods and river,
Ancient forests cover where blood spilled makes you shiver.
With moonshine and horns, and stones standing guard,
Secrets long lost, truths being barred.
A sword that speaks not just when you strike,
Of flowers and trees, pilgrim watch where you hike.
Shades from the past, their whispers you hear,
Whenever pilgrim thoughts make Duskshire come near.
