Relationship Note on Natalia
Just because I said I wouldn't make you just any old thing you wanted doesn't mean I insulted you, little missy! I know your reputation.
I didn't even turn you away! If you want to work with me on a commission, I am a willing crafter, but my work doesn't come free of my opinions and my own style guidelines.
It isn't like I am about to put gold, purple and blue feathers on a man, after all.

I had the pleasure of going to the palace hot springs today and despite what they say the city over, they're not a myth! No, they're warm, welcome goodness and I can only imagine how much of a respite they'll be from the harsh winter months.
One day, in a fantasy so far removed from normalcy, I will have an architect supply my future hold with running hot water.
It's glorious.

Relationship Note on Donella
The Voice of House Thrax is a great many things, but boring and unimaginative she is not. I first encountered her on my weekly visit to the Grayson Mansion to speak with one of my cousins, Prince Gareth. She was already engaged in conversation with him, so we embarked on a short walk across the Compact Ward where she kept me near breathless and doubled over with laughter at her unapologetic Thraxian witticisms and jokes at, sadly, my cousin's expense.
But what is perhaps most memorable was our misadventures down on the beaches a few nights ago. I won't write about it here, of course. But Princess Donella Thrax is my partner in crime, and someone I would hope to call friend soon enough.

It seems as though Princess Natalia's event was something of a success. Highborn and esteemed commoner alike were in attendance. While not much discussion was openly facilitated as I hoped, we were regaled with an interesting take of Northern fashion by Princess Freja.

Relationship Note on Freja
Is adoration at first sight a thing? Respect at first sight? I'm not sure what just happened but I was in the Training Center practicing the day away when a tall Redrain Princess named Freja walked in. She is the me of the North, I am almost positive.
All whimsical ideas of friendship aside, however, Freja appears to be the kind of woman I can grow to respect. She loves her home, she is unafraid of speaking up or being bold, and she drinks whiskey. I intend to get to know the woman a little better before throwing around titles and connections, but I do hold a great deal of hope for a lasting friendship. Its good to make allies in new places.

Today I had the good pleasure and honor to have tea with the Archlector of Sentinel. Though there are undoubtedly those who know me that would find my desire to have a good religious discussion peculiar, it is a truth I keep buried within my heart all the same.

What an interesting night it was. Princess Natalia personally invited me to take part of a meeting discussing fashion. Princess Freja stood up and enlighten us with information about what northerners wear. I noted Princess Isabeau's patronage of our local Mercier wine which speaks volume of Valardin's palette towards local things.

Relationship Note on Horatio
I do not know this man well, but there will be time in the future to fix this. If I decide to. I have been given talking points for small talk, though unfortunately the tea party has been postponed and I will have to wait to use them.

I believe that it was mostly a success. I do wonder if the Grand Duchess does not truly like me. She sent a tailor that has insulted me to my event? Perhaps the family does not like that I am a Grayson?
Regardless, Princess Freja spoke with conviction and I do believe that we shall see about this being an ongoing thing.

Bah. Whatever affections I may hold for Lady Dawn, the winners were poorly chosen. While I will defend her in very little, Lady Sylphie deserved some true recognition here.

Relationship Note on Nadia
Duchess Nadia has shown interest in my skills, as well as my wellbeing. I am not sure what she expects of me, or the things that will be required of me in the future, but I have accepted her offer as my patron. She leaves me alone to do my own thing, which is nice. She gets a discount (because I'm still a business woman and can't just do things for free), and that seems to have made her happy. In return, she sends me food so I don't die. Though, her feeding me means I remain alive, and she doesn't have to find someone else to take my place...so it might be a selfish gesture. I'm ok with this, I think.

Relationship Note on Valkieri
The other half of Gemecitta, he strikes me as a man with a soldier's outlook on methods. Our initial meeting was terse, but the subject of trade appears to be an interest keenly felt by both of us. I believe we may find common ground through economic ties.

The Graysons, it seems, aren't even interested in allowing the Velenosas to have their own representative at the little princess' thing! What an insult! What gall!
To treat one's own vassals so. If you invite them to choose someone to represent their styles, then you should allow them to! Or admit that you didn't care to.

Relationship Note on Aldwin
The Archscholar of Vellichor has paid me the immense compiment of specifically requesting to converse with me - and thereafter added another by inviting me to join a scholastic venture he has started. I am quite embarrassingly flattered by this, and fervently hope that I can make meangingful contributions.

Relationship Note on Cordelia
What happens when you spoil a child? This is what happens.
A bloody disgrace of a girl who thinks she can do whatever the fuck she wants. Perhaps she could've, if she'd been born on the shore of landlubbers. On the Isles we do things differently, and I'll have no part in further enabling her behavior.
Bah.

Relationship Note on Abbas
His father betrayed us, his mother was banished. Still, Abbas has always been dependable. He has embraced Thrax and its ways like few of the current generation of my family has. That makes him stand out as someone worthy.
I've sailed with him, I've fought with him and I've killed with him.
Those are the things that make men family, even if they don't have ties of blood. We have that, too.

A lone tree that the passing storm had left broken. The numbered hands left bent and wanting its solitary form cracked reaching into the sky. There out past mans knowing where the stars bleed into the earth we stop. It cries for help in its death and is set free. They watched the fire which contains something of themselves and consumes all living things bring change. Bodies come together passions of the flesh lit ablaze in the light of the torch whos brightness pushes back the night. Flame saw in the wind and the ash covers them as bodies writhe on the ground like snakes.

Relationship Note on Sophie
Solace Healer, she came to tend to my injuries after Prince Fergus beat me soundly in sparring. Despite some awkward moments, she seemed to know what she was doing. My appreciation for her services.
