Perhaps I need to start doing more runs and jumping jacks to get my exercise.

It almost makes me feel as if I am in the Thraxian ward.

Sometimes, you must also fight another lord who has the frightening title of "Sword" of something. Not to mention the problems of picking your bride or groom.
I am glad this is not a concern I will have being a humble courtesan. I am free to show those I love my care for them without worries of intrigue. I need not worry about marrying to continue my line, or bring in prestige for my family.
Of course, being a commoner, should I ever marry it would be because someone had claimed my heart completely. And should that person then suggest we be allowed to also have other loves--
I would cut out his heart to remind him that it is mine.

It is a hobby of mine to read the white journals. Not the contemporary ones, nor the ones useful for historical reference, necessarily; those fall into the category of research, and research is work, not play.
And yes, even I play, sometimes. More rarely, these days, than I might wish. But I often explore the white journals of long-dead philosophers, artists, poets, and other such individuals. The twists and turns of their minds are fascinating, and there is such beauty in those simple words or careful images, long forgotten. For example, one that returns to my mind more and more often these days:
"Supposing that I should have the courage
To let a red sword of virtue
Plunge into my heart,
Letting to the weeds of the ground
My sinful blood,
What can you offer me?
A gardened castle?
A flowery kingdom?
What? A hope? "
The original poem ends with another line, but I have omitted it. Not because it is not a fair ending, but because I feel the question remains unanswered, when I ponder it.

How do I stop this from happening?
I need to prepare, for if what I did today had this result... what is going to happen with the others I come into contact with?

Relationship Note on Alrec
You are a man of consumptive want. Nothing is ever good enough for you.
You can never be content. You will always hunger. It leads you to choices made that you will always regret. You will always regret that you left Darkwater for the Pravus, even as their luxuries sooth that regret.
You will always regret the other choices you have made that compromise your honor and your integrity. You will always regret that your avarice has cost you everything.
Your rank. The respect of others. The trust of others.
I offer you the scorn in my voice.
I offer you the back of my hand.
I offer you the edge of my blade.
I offer you nothing more.
