Within the tempest's squall, unseen and battered,
Thrall to the majestic, intemperate beauty of Mangata's fury
I fall, cast unto the sea, adrift
You rise from the depths,
Waves at your command
Hands steady, feet planted
Anchored
Where once there was only the rise, the fall
The sense of drifting, ceaseless tides
Now there is you, my center, holding
My shelter through the storm
You know who you are.

Relationship Note on Niamh
All of those things run through my mind. Watching you fight, watching you ride up when we were coming back from Alis and Fia's wedding. The warrioress you were and the legend (at least to me) you will always be.
Even though all that, the things I remember most? Your smile, the way you laughed. The fact that you let your cousin hang out in your room with your friend instead of telling me to go away. The patience you had at times, the infinite love you had for our family.
I lost so much more than a cousin. This world lost so much more than a fighter.
I love you Niamh. May the afterlife be kind to you, may your soul shine as brightly as it did here on this world.

Sword of Greenmarch
Knight of Valardin
Champion
Knight and Found of the Order of the Golden Dragon
Cousin
They are all the titles I knew you by, but none of them do you justice. When Fiachra and I teach our children about the heroes of our people, your name will feature brightly among them. You, who stood for the innocent and championed justice, and stood as a beacon against the dark. And they will also know that you were beloved by all who really knew you. That your smile could brighten a day, and your wit and ferocity during battle could turn a tide. We will all miss you. But you will never be forgotten.

(-on a side note, if there are any enamelists in the Guild, the vendor in the marketplace with the new banner? Furthest from the fountain? They have an -exquisite- array of reds but they're sensitive to heat, be sure you use them for the last few firings and not a firing more, it turns brown-)
-I came back to my shop that evening to find a rather haggard looking assistant leaning against the counter looking like he was about to faint. After making sure he wasn't cursed with some kind of illness, I got him to sit and tell me all about this trauma etched into his face.
Turns out, after I'd listed my classified, word got around quickly (or perhaps someone's been bribed at the crier's office?) and a, I'm quoting this, "stampede of princesses with lust and murder in their eyes" swept into my shop with all the power of a hurricane and cleared me out not once, but -twice-.
I sent the poor boy home. He'd done great work, I wouldn't have known it for walking into the shop, the place was immaculate, but the receipts and accounts proved his story true. Goodness.
To all of those that enjoy my work: thank you, I am, as ever, humbled by your patronage. The Crafters Guildmaster can have no official patron and the funding in the accounts for the guild are not meant for me. The coin I make is only for my living and materials to continue to make that living. I appreciate every one of you.
Yes. Even -you-.

I have recently learned to shoot a bow, I know I am suppose to be a diplomat and I am do not fear that but I also wanted a way to protect myself and my loved ones should something happen. I am not a expert but I do plan on getting better if there should be someone out there willing to help me.
I have found myself not being as shy around people I see everyday that in its self is a miracle.
I have also found myself drawn to Mangata's shrine a lot as of late, I find sitting and watching the fish in the pond to be very relaxing. I feel safe there, I feel safer there then I do in a lot of places in Arx.
I found myself in the middle of the attack on the king, everything happened so fast, I was there with Dutchess Tyde, Duke Grimhall and Prince Abbas Thrax. I was hurt but not like some who was in the thick of fighting and we even lost someone.
So I think I have caught everyone up for the moment.
By Mangata's silvered veil!

Fruits, veggies, grains, and dairy.
On another note, haven't we had enough murder in our city?
Why do we need to act it out?
I'm sorely disappointed as my last attendance to the Black Rose Theater wasn't one to fondly recall, save for my date with Whisper Nisaa. I wish we had plays of love and romance and things that aren't about death.

I understand people have to eat and often there isn't a choice but what they catch.
Wild ravens though? They're pretty filthy.
They eat on dead flesh.
You would then be eating their dead flesh.
Consuming it that can cause the four humors to fall out of alignment.
Sometimes that is their last laugh.
I wouldn't recommend it.

A raven is a low throated sound, like a gronk-gronk croooak.
Interesting fact, a crow's tail is fan-shaped and a raven's is wedge-shaped.
Fortunato is right about their socializing behaviors. Ravens are more cautious.
You know what's really interesting? A crow's life span is usually around the 8 year mark, while a raven can last upwards of 30 years! Imagine their intelligence. If you want a smart bird, a raven is the way to go.
Raven's are also larger than a crow, and their feathers have a wet look to them and gleam blue or purple. The right trainer can also get a Raven to learn to understand what you're telling them. Crow's take a bit more effort.
